Inconsistency in state banking law affects Wahpeton charter
Volume VIII reports an error in capital requirements for Wahpeton's People Bank of Wahpeton. The 2000 and over towns rule implies $30,000 capital, while Wahpeton with 2000 or fewer would need only $10,000 to $11,000. The attorney general says $30,000 is required, forcing the town to seek a larger charter. Dr. L. D. Bartlett details relief efforts for North Dakota farmers and irrigation prospects, noting generous aid and railroad support. He criticizes misperceptions of the region and discusses wells in Ellendale, stock raising, and the potential for irrigation and storage ponds to mitigate drought impacts.
