S. to 'Furnish or Premiums Totaling $500,000 Federal authorities at Washington Friday were asked by State Insurance Commissioner Harold Hopton to "furnish or hall insurance for North Dakota farmers scheduled to receive an expected 000,000 in seed loans for 1934. The plan, forwarded to W. I.

Meyers, governor of the farm credit administration, carried with It the endorsement of Judge A. M. Christianson, president of the North Dakota Rural Rehabilitation corporation and the support of former Governor Thomas H. Moodie, now state head of the federal housing corporation. Support of the North Dakota delegation in congress also was asked in letters to them from Lars J.

He estimated the number of acres which would be seeded as a result of the contemplated loans at 14,000,000.

Siljan explained "farmers are In worse shape this year than at any time since statehood. With another crop in prospect, the protection against hail losses becomes an important Under the present law, he said, fanners delinquent more than one year in the past three years on hail Insurance indemnity payments are barred from optional Insurance, and must deposit with the department an amount equal to 10 per cent of the coverage sought. Speedy Action Asked "Practically no farmers who are delinquent are in a position to meet this provision of the Siljan claimed, certainly not those who obtain government loans for seed. The department feels that it would be in line with the farm rehabilitation policy for the government to furnish or underwrite this hall Summaries showing actual costs of the hail Insurance, together with tables showing distribution of the average 10-year costs also were sent to Meyers. Siljan asked "speedy action, as we are rapidly approaching the seeding In a similar letter to Meyers, Judge Christianson declared, "during normal years, destruction by hail is at times a real calamity.

It was because of this that it was deemed necessary by the people of the state to provided hail insurance at cost. "I recommend for your serious consideration the proposition presented by the manager of the state hail Insurance department." Judge Christianson termed it "good business as well as good social practice to make provision so that the fanners who receive seed loans at the same time also receive Insurance on the crops sought to be produced from the seed purchased. "In the event the crop Is destroyed by hall It will provide for the payment of the loan and also furnish some compensation for the crop that has been Urged to support tbe proposal in Washington were Senators Lynn J.
