& o GRT I "All persons interested in North’ Dakota should write at once to the Bank of North Dakota, Bismarck, N. D., for a new booklet now being issued, giving full details, not only of the state bonds, but a brief re= view of the state, its industries'and resources as well. It contains in- formation about North Dakota that every citizen interested in human - progress should know. The little book -is free. Write for it today! Shylocks of 1921 in ‘the Cotton Belt (Continued from page 12) landowner who practices diversifica- tion and borrows from banks on his own unsecured note. Competition be- tween banks and credit merchants and between cash stores and credit stores for the farmer’s business is a regulat- ing factor of prime importance, con- cludes Mr. Ousley. Checking back on this report I ex- amined statements: of account pre- sented by credit meérchants, in' which provisions were boosted 50 ‘per cent, and.even more. There were entries of cash advanced, discounted 10 per cent, and in summing up the total, when suit was brought, a 10 per cent was added as a matter of custom:. In most cases, to avoid contest and defense of usury, settlement was effected at much below the face of the account. Cases were cited, of which I can not vouch but from the circumstances believe, of debtors—white farmers—beguiled to purchase far beyond their needs, and then sold out and evicted. Farmers whe had begun. to diversify were forced to plow up the seeding and plant cofton. All plans for organizing farmers’ clubs or for collective mar- keting (except for hogs), or any kind of collective action, were discouraged by a mysterious power at the county seat. Is it surprising that the per- centage of owned farms in Smith county declined from 48.1 in 1900 to 45.7 in 1910, the lowest in that part of the state? __ FOR “GRAIN DOLLARS” Editor Nonpartisan Leader: The arti¢le of Thomas Keefe points out the one and only potent remedy for our economi¢ ills. -So long"as the world’s gold autocracy, fortified with national banking - monopoli€s, succeeds -in_in- volving the m<sses in futile squabbles over the effects. of their system, just so long will the masses remain the helpless victims' of ‘exploitation. 'The cause must be dealt with.” Mr. Keefe’s. article goes at.once to the cause.” Gold' as a unit of value is the most effective instrument of measuring wealth out of the hands of producers into the posses- sion of the money manipulators that could be devised. The James boys and Younger brothers ‘were crude ama- teurs in comparison to the gold auto-- crat. ‘The unit for medsuring value should, by all means, be of something essentlal in the scheme of honest liv- ing, at least until such time as.we may be able to get away from a commodity unit and onto a scientific labor unit. The five grains would provide as fixed, as honest and as practical a unit_ as, could be adopted at this time. It would cure the evils of, the present manipu- lated.gold unit and smash the bankers’. monopoly of fiat paper money andl provide money based on honest and in- dispensable values. Under such’'a money .- system hard _times;, ’durmg periods of abundant wealth, could no longer haunt honest and ,mdustuous people. .. CHARLES T. PHILP. .- Grever, Coll - FORWARD MARCH!

S 3 EXPOSE BANKING MONOPOLY Editor Nonpartisan Leader: Let me congratulate you on the articles :oncerning banks and banking; also upon the subject of credits and money. Keep everlastingly at it, as that is the key to the whole works as far as the present crippling of production and distribution is concerned from the strictly business side of it, but the matter is so vital and the “obfustica- tion” or dust that is constantly being thrown into people’s eyes as to the great mysteriousness of the money question has caused the most of {ic public to leave it to the bankers and financiers, and thus the press gets its financial information practically only from the bankers and OF COURSE what they say is law and gospel! It is wrong for any kind of a law that affects all the people to be made only at the dictation and pleasure of a very small part of the people. As well leave laws for horsethieves to horsethieves, and laws for burglars to burglars, and laws for every special class to that class. It is inconsistent in a democracy. It seems to be about what we really, have done as far as the public welfare is concerned. It is time for us all to wake up and get busy and do it now! Otherwise Lin- coln’s prophecy is about fu'filled. * We need more and complete public- ity about money, banks and credits, etc.,.and all the time there should be live-wire advocacy of public banks and banking and,control of credits. It is the -public’s. money for.the most .part that:is used.in their own enslavement, Yours for the better day, - Alzerdeen, Wash. VERITAS. HELP NORTH DAKOTA Editor Nonpartisan Leader: - Some- thing. has been said about a legal holiday to be called “Farmers’ day.” .Hopé we will get it séme day. For the present year I wish to suggest that we Leaguers celebrate June 18. .Later. we may. celebrate the second Saturday in June each year. Fellow Leaguers, what do you say? It takes money to win in an election campaign. In the last general elec- tion the victorious party also spent the most money. Let-us do our bit in helping North Dakota in saving the League program in that state. Let real democracy not perish, so human progress be not stopped by reaction. Real progress comes through progres- sive organizations, such ‘as oiir League. AUGUST W. KRUGER.
