;
E ISM ARK. N. D.—The laws per
mitting- the state of North Dakota
to go into business under the in
dustrial program of the National
Non-partisan League went into ef
fect when Governor Frazier recently
j signed the bills. Banking, home
building and flour milling are among
the projects covered in the ten con
jstitutional amendments adopted at
- ; the last general election.
The parent bill creates a state
industrial commission composed of
the governor, commissioner of ag
riculture and the attorney general,
who are given blanket authority in
establishing necessary state depart
ments. The commission is given
authority for the operation of a
. system of banking under the name
i of the Bank of North Dakota.
The banking measure provides for
| issuance of $2,000,000 in bonds to
furnish capital. The system will
start “whenever the sum of $2,000.
; 000 issued by the state as provided
by law" has been delivered to the
] commisson. The bank will become
the depository of all public funds of
the state, counties, cities and school
districts. General banking business
is authorized, and in addition the
Central state bank will become the
depository of the reserve funds of
several hundred private banks chart
ered by the state. These reserves
are now held in St. Paul. Minnesota
:» and Chicago. The state bank will
- have charge of the issuance of state
7; bonds to finance industrial enter
5 prises and will act as a rural credit
^ bank for promotion of agriculture.
The industrial commission bill and
I the banking act have passed both
houses by two-thirds majorities,
which permits the inclusion of an
! emergency clause putting them into
I immediate effect. The other bills
! are expected to pass soon with the
emergency clauses.
The other League program bills
provide for the erection of terminal
imporvements, provided state hail
insurance on crops, state industrial
insurance for workingmen, and made
other changes proposed by the State
! Federation of Labor.

Sv
The milling measure authorizes
' the estajolish/ient of a system of
elevators, warehouses, flour mills
and factories with which the state
J will engage in manufacture and
marketing of farm products. The
! milling association w’ill be capital
' ized at $5,000,000, part of the
money, to be obtained through cer
i tain funds in the state treasury and
! part through the sale of state bonds.
The Home Building Association
j of North Dakota, authorized under
the home building measure, will
j purchase or build homes or farms
for citizens on receipt of twenty
i per cent payment. The remainder
i may be paid on an amortization
j plan in from ten to twenty years,
j A house costing $5,000 can be pur
; chased in twenty years on monthly
payments of $26, according to the
League members. They say the act
Iwill bring rapid settlement of the
state’s idle lands.
State-owned coal mines and pack
ing plants, also a part of the League
; program, were not expected to be
i authorized at the present session
One bill expected to be acted
upon imposes a one-half mill tax
to create a fund for returned sol
diers who would be entitled to $25
for each month in service. The
money would be placed in the home
building association fund or be de
posited for the soldier’s education.
