Let us have peace! Close to a year has passed since the armistice was signed—almost a year since the world went on its knees with glad thankfulness in the belief that the last ¢f all wars was done. No more strife, no more bloodshed, no more mothers weeping for their sons—the last war! A league of nations, we cried, a league of na- tions that shall make possible international mis- understandings, that shall protect the weak, that shall restrain those greedy in their strength! A league of nations that shall be the first step in the realization of world-wide democracy ! SO in our enthusiasm after the last shot was fired. And what have we today? The league of na- tions formulated. The peace treaty waiting to be ratified. And pending ratification internal unrest and civil strife in every one of the countries that was at war. Italy, who held the Hun from sweeping over southern Europe and over Africa, is confronted with a dissolved parliament, its members challeng- ing each other to duels after they had broken each other noses with their fists. And why? Because Italy wants Fiume, be- lieves she is entitled to Fiume, while apparently Fiume doesn’t want Italy. D’Annunzio, that amaz- ing poet who knows how to wield a sword as effec- tively as a pen, has taken Fiume. And, while he holds the Adriatic city by sheer force of person- ality, Rome herself seethes with turmoil and goes back to martial law. And again why.?, Why this internal upheaval in Italy? Because nations are like pepole.”’ Be- cause Italy, anxiously waiting for the surety that orlly the ratification of the peace treaty can bring, has let her nerves get the best of her. Because she needs help and understanding in the solving of ‘her problems—such insurance as only the concert- ed strength of a league of nations can give. Who is withholding this surety from Italy? Who is responsible for such outbreaks as the fiasco resulting from the Fiume situation? The world knows. Sign, gentlemen of the United States senate— sign, that the world may have peace! OF CIRCULA — TOLL OF CARELESSNESS The Safety First movement in this country is now inits 19th year. It originated in Dr. William H. Tolman’s studies of accident prevention abroad. In 1900 Dr. Tolman started the American Museum of Safety in New York. This was the first organ- ized move against preventable deaths and injuries. The 19 years’ battle against accidents has ma- terially reduced the casualty rate. More impor- tant, it has caused an analysis of accidents so thorough that we are all becoming experts on dan- gers to be avoided. The slipping ladder causes more accidents than anything else. Its casualty toll bears out the claim of Safety First authorities, that 80 per cent of accidents are due to carelessness. As an opposite case, take dynamite making. Despite its hazardous nature, there are few acci- dents in the dynamite industry. The workers know that they are in the presence of death. They have demonstrated that personal caution is the most effective preventive of accidents. Safety First investigations by large employers of labor, including the General Electric Co., have revealed that there are certain ages, certain hours, certain days when people relax their vigilance. The most careless age is 22 to 26. More accidents occur on Monday than any other day. More accidents occur between’9 and 10 in the morning than any other hour of the day or night. It is evident that people have a tendency, after a period of rest, to return to work in a careless at- titude. The relaxation of the body is accompanied by a relaxation of vigilance and caution. Govern your movements accordingly. The time a fine machine, a valuable fragile vase or posses- sion of a diamond, Safeguard yourself constantly. Danger is not limited to your work. It lurks in homes, in streets, on railroad tracks and in recreation. The prevention of accidents can never become automatic. Safety devices help materially, but human caution is the most powerful protection against injury. The prediction that the west will furnish the next president is probably based on the theory that none but a broncho-buster could hold the job down. They haven’t found Burleson guilty of “per- nicious activity” in the affairs of civil service, in spite of the fact that the public considers any ac- tivity of Burleson pernicious. Senator Overman says the south is solid for the league and the treaty. What he means is that the south is solid for Wilson and Wilson is solid for the league and the treaty. Senator Ashhurst thought the crowds were trying to make a police court of the United States senate. Why shouldn’t it be a police court if Uncle Sam is to become a policeman? Americanism is the theory that America should take charge of the world, or the theory that America should attend to her own business and] let the world go to pot. You can take your choice. eet [~~ WITH THE EDITORS | oe eee THE GRAND FORKS BAND SYSTEM While the weather conditions yesterday morn- ing were such as to cause a good many people who would otherwise have joined the excursion party to the Red Lake Falls fair to stay at home, and while fewer persons than would otherwise been the case saw the train off, those who were down town had good reason to feel proud of the appear-| * ance made by the band contingent of the city) which went to help in the festivities of our neigh- i boring city. The showing made was impressive || from the mere standpoint of numbers, as the com- |! pany of players numbered about 100, but this was| but a small part of the very pleasing feature. The players ranged from the younger schoolboys to the veterans, some of whom, for a generation or more, have been the backbone of the band organ-|/ ization which, under various names and forms, has i represented the city in this branch of music, and|| the specially satisfactory feature is that the entire work is a muncipal enterprise in which all the people have a share. The band work of the city is fostered by the i city council, the school board and the park. com- mission, each contributing its quota towards the cost of maintenance. What is known as the mu- nicipal band, composed of the older and more ex- perienced players, exists as a separate organiza- tion, and the public funds by means of which the services of a director are provided for this organ-|| ization are supplied by the city council. The park commission appropriates a specific sum for a stated number of summer concerts, and this money goes directly to the players. They receive no other compensation of any kind out of the public treasury. When their services are desired by other than public organizations they are paid according to a regular scale. By far the greater number of engagements which they have played, especially during the past two years, have been without com- pensation of any kind. They have played at gath- erings for the support of Red Cross and other patriotic causes; they have headed parades; they have played at the depots for departing soldiers, and again to welcome them home. The time and effort which they have put into this work has been given freely and willingly, with the same measure of public spirit which has characterized the com- munity at large. The school band is the result of the application to this particular feature of training of the same principle which underlies the adoption of domestic science and manual training in the schools. It in-|| volves recognition of the principle that education is not alone a matter of books, but that it is as well the development of the hand, the eye and the artistic senses. Through some one or other of these agencies school life has been made a real joy and a real utility to many who otherwise would have found it next to unendurable. Not the least in importance of these influences is the training in band music which is being given to the.Grand Forks schools. The “grown up” band and the “kid” band are inseparably related. Through the system which has been adopted we are developing our own musical talent out of the raw material which we possess in abundance, and as in process of time, players drop out of the adult band their places will be filled by local boys, sons of our own people, whose homes and interests are here, and who will take a pride in’ building and maintaining an or- to be most watchful is when you feel the safest. Accidents kill 85,000 American workmen yearly. Two million workmen are injured yearly, Three million cases of sickness due to prevent- able occupational diseases is another annual toll, _ _ Accidents cause a wage loss of $1,000,000 every ganization which will adequately represent the city at its best. The city has been fortunate in securing as the of grown men with ability to teach children, re- taining at once their affection and their respect. In its present band system Grand Forks has some- thing which, to be appreciated, di af aah -DEWS.OF EVE needs only to be| convenlénce.

E. Lofthus, state examiner ; the Scandinavian: - American bank, as a corporation, and P. R. Sherman, cashier of the Scandi- navian-American bank. SUPPLEMENTARY REPORT Letters written by H. J. Hagen, president of the Scandinavian Ameti- {can bank of Fargo, to the Savings and Commerce bank of Duluth, Minn, i which Mr, Hagen told the Duluth bank that “he expected a call within a few days” from the state bank department, and in which he made arrangements for a temporary loan of $81,000 to tide over the period that the deputy bank examiner would be making the exami- nation of the, bank, were made public today. They are quoted in a supplementary report that P, E, Halldorson and 0. EF. {Engemoen, deputy bank examiners, and Albert. L. Sheets, Jr., assistant attor- ney general, have made to the state {banking board, covering their inquiry into the affairs of the Fargo institu tion. , Concluding this supplementary — re- port, the deputy bank examiners and the assistant attorney general advise the banking board that it . is _ theit opinion that the Scandinavian-Ameri- can bank is “hopelessly insolvent,” without giving consideration to the 32,000 in political loans, ESERVE ENTIRELY WIPED OUT “In submitting this, the concluding supplement to the report already made, it is deemed ‘advisable to.amplify the brief and hurried way in which the general condition of the bank was previously discussed,” concludes the supplementary report, “At the present time the expenses and interest paid by the bank exceeds the present earnings in the sum of $3,114.47. Adding to this item evident on the face ’of the report, the excess at which the furnt- ture and fixtures are carried above their actual value, or the cost of their replacement today will make a_ total of $17,492.77. From these’ figures alone it is perfectly apparant from the face of the report that not only is the surplus completely ;wiped out, but the capital itself is impaired in the sum of $7,492.77. “This item, taken together with the past due paper listed in thé previous report ($167,000), and paper which will result in a total loss represents the facts upon which we have come fo the conclusion that the Scandinavia:- American bank is hopelessly insolvent without,any reference to the condition of the excess loans carried by the bank and listed and criticized in our former report. $1,200,000.00 WORTH OF ROADS ‘ WEDNESDAY, OCT. 8, 1919. TRAVELMG MAN HAS 19 POUNDS Sanborn Was So Rum Down He Thought. His Time Had Come One of the distinguishing. features in connection with the introduction aud sale of Tanlac throughout America has been the very large number of travel- ing men who have been benefitted by its_use.
