State terminal elevators plan judged impractical
North Dakota board of control finds no sound plan that a state owned and operated terminal elevator in Minnesota or Wisconsin would raise farmers’ prices. It recommends two terminals if pursued, renting existing facilities to test the idea, and cautions against full build outs or Canada style ownership without careful study.

England Won't Yield to Request on Dacia Safe Passage
Washington reports the British government will not consent to let the steamer Dacia, now American flagged after a transfer from Germany, proceed to Rotterdam under safe conduct with its cotton cargo. The British objection cites risk of setting a precedent for German ships now under American control and operating on former trade routes, while denying a formal claim to interfere with legitimate purchases. The Elks committee seeks host rooms for visiting members during the two day opening exercises and asks residents with spare space to contact secretary George Harvey.
