t Bankers State’s Farm Problems Surpass All Others in Import- ance Says Irish, Arriving Here for Convention “Agricultural problems in North Dakota surpass all other subjects in the minds of bankers of this state,” F. A. Irish, Fargo, chairman of the agricultural committee of the North Dakota Bankers’ association, said here Thursday as he arrived for the annual convention of the bankers, opening Friday. Although farm revenue for the first five months of this year has increased. by approximately 80 per cent over that of a year ago, the hazards facing this year’s small grain crop are seri- ous, he said. “Every possible type of cooperation and every resource at the command of North Dakota bankers, will be urged. baat this coming convention,” Irish a 5 Group Gets High Rating In his annual report, Irish said, he will show that North Dakota bankers | ‘were one of five state groups to re- ceive a 1,000 per cent efficiency rat- ing from the agricultural commission | of the American. Bankers’ ion, for their agricultural activities in 1935. This marked the fourth con-| secutive year in which the A. B. A. has given this ranking to the bankers of this state, Irish said his report showed that out of the 208 banks in North Dakota, there were total accountable expendi- tures of $11,440 for local agricultural projects. The year witnessed 471 in- stances when local bankers acted as chairmen for farm meetings and pro- grams. Activities deemed helpful to agriculture totaled 1,071, while a total of 1,382 actual farmers were involved in direct banker-farmer contacts and where the latter were beneficiaries of actual grants, prizes, awards or spe- cial financing. Classifies Activities Activities of individual North Da- kota bankers were classified by Irish under the following headings: 1. Aided in problems relating to farm finance; 2. Carried on activities involving agricultural education; 3. Campaigns designed to bring about community betterment and agricul- tural improvement; 4. Assisted in ad- ministering activities of state and federal relief agencies; 5. Helped 4-H clubs and other junior farm groups; 6. Miscellaneous projects of an agri- cultural development nature. “Our North Dakota bankers do not regard themselves as master farm- ers,” he said, “but under the constant, direction of the agricultural commit- tee of the Greater North Dakota as-! sociation, the extension division of the agricultural college, the agricul- tural commission of the American Bankers’ association, we have endeav- ored to utilize all available sources of information and trained workers, simply giving all our time and funds, to advance the projects conceived by these agencies.” ‘ Farmers Keeping Accounts Trish emphasizes that the most notable development of the past year, as reported by bankers over the state, is the growing disposition on the part of individual farmers to place their farm operations on a record basis, keeping accurate account of all re- ceipts and disbursements. In addition to Irish’s report to the bankers’ convention, B. E. Groom, chairman ef the agricultural commit- tee of the Greater North Dakota as- sociation, will cite the specific activi- ties of that organization in behalf of agriculture during the past year. Serving with Mr. Irish on the state- wide agricultural committee are A. L. Netcher, Fessenden; J. P. Wagner, Bismarek; F. D. McCartney, Oakes; F. A. Foley, Rolla; T. A. Tollefson, Dickinson, and D. A. Stewart, Bow- man.

Tt is, of course, not the strategy of the Landon men, but the tactics of the anti-Landon group who think that every day gained weakens by that much the Landon strength. Actually, however, the Landon dele- gates are- mere foam on the sur- face. They are substantial and will not be melted away by & lengthening ‘of the convention. For the majority —and a siséablé majority at that— wants to go home on Friday night with Landon the nominee. There are plenty of ways of delay- ing ® platform report. Discussion of the platform could constientiously oecupy weeks. Indeed, some day po- Itical parties will appoint their reso- lutions committee in advance and give the voters in @ particular party @ chance through the usual channels of expression to register an opinion. ‘This is a needed reform. - Can Do Some Damage As matters stand, the fillbusters can do some damage by dilatory moves but in the end the Landon Management will have to insist on a vote and bring the platform report to the floor for a majority and minority division, leaving it to the convention to decide between the differing view- points. The platform quarrel is a basic con- troversy, perhaps the starting point ot cleavage in what has externally at least seemed to be a harmonious con- vention. The Hoover speech has in itself brought no change in the so- called anti-Landon situation. ‘while there are many Hooverites who still think he would make a good nominee this year, the convention as & whole is in no mood to shift frorh to see the loy- alty which the Sever wigeceed have for their former chief, but this convention merely honors the former ident as a leader and is not think- ig of him for a presidential nomina- tion since he himself has declared he does not wish to be considered.

Piainly, Senator Borah, who stands on the side lines, represents a separ- ate and distinct influence. 80 does the Knox organization here. And 80 does the Vandenberg element. These various opposition groups are not co- hesive, but they have @ common in- terest in what Mr. Vandenberg has the “stop-and-think” move- t. No coalition between the opposing groups seems possible unless it comes out of a united ition on certain Platform planks. Thus far, the Lan- donites have done everything possible to placate théir opposition in the Platform committee, and curiously enough they find every now and then that their opponents, instead of be- ing conservative, are trying to out- liberal the liberal spokesmen of the Kansas governor. Want Lengthy Debate ‘This is a new kind of way to block progress in a platform committee. For it makes difficult the asstimption that there is an “old guard” seeking special privilege. The maneuver is to get the platform into such a mess that it will produce lengthy debate and plenty of friction, leading to sears inside the ranks of different delegations where Landon hag his major strength. The Landon strategists are well aware of the scheme and are prepar- ing to meet it. They have weathered the other little storms thus far and it will not be their fault if Messrs. Borah and Hoover and Vandenberg do not ha considerable opportun- ity to express their respéctive views on the platform planks before the final report goes to the convention. The Landon effort is toward har- mony, but the Kansas governor, who is closely in touch by telephone with what is going on, is not likely to let division on platform principles go on without forcing a show-down. He has the votes on the resolutions com- mittee and can compel a roll call and a final report by Thursday night. Little is to be gained from the Landon standpoint by delays and bickerings, since the principles of the platform are fairly well agreed upon and the only problem now is how to make concessions on points worth consider- ing that involve a possible improve- ment in phraseology. Senator Borah is represented as having approved the farm plank and the foreign affairs plank. His views for jon the monetary plank may possibly develop a minority report. There is no doubt that he can be satisfied by the Landonites on the anti-monopoly plank. On the whole the platform is being written with an idea of winning the Borah and Hoover approval, but it would not be a tragedy at all if the final platform was a Landon plat- form, since he, and not the others, lke Messrs. Borah and Hoover, will have to stand on it before the voters. Eton is the most expensive of the English schools.
