They face a big job. It is not going to be an easy session, but = out of the deliberations it is imperative that some- thing of a constructive nature should come for the ~ welfare of North Dakota—that is the sole consid- eration. Petty partisan politics have no place in the deliberations of the body and campaign ran- cor should be forgotten in face of the great meas- ures that are pressing for solution.

War dead alone have left a great gap‘in popu: , lation. There are 630 eputipes one for every 75,000 inhabitants. The next Pheer will have about 500 members. French newspapers and the na- tion’s clearest thinkers are inclined to call a smaller chamber a national blessing. As one writ- er put it, “the 500-member chamber will produce better fruit than the larger body.” CHILD HYGIENE WORK How far the states have officially recognized | the importance of child welfare work is brought out in the annual report of the Children’s Bureau of the U. S. Department of labor. At the present time 35 states have created child hygiene or, child welfare divisions. _ Before organized effort for such divisions. budget so far adopted by any state, but some bureaus with only. meager appropriations, through the cooperation of medical, public health and so- ry out far-reaching plans of health work. WHERE THE MONEY GOES With the pruning knife hovering over appro- priations for the woman's bureau in the govern- ment labor dpartment, Congress is reminded that out of last year’s appropriations Congress allotted | 66-thousands of one percent of the total to the interests of women and children. Speaking of percentages and appropriations by Congres, it is interesting to note that 92 per cent of the total cost of, running the government goes for war ‘purposes, past, present and contem- plated. é ‘ Ninety-two cents out of every dollar. That leaves eight cents for education, agricul- ‘ture, and the general good of the counry. And yet there are people who are opposed to cutting! down the naval and military appropriations. . Even big business is.now getting to be pacifis- tie. : militarism which is howling to reduce the great war approprations; our big banks and manufac- turerg are beginning to crowd on Congress with the suggestion that if business or prosperity is to have any chance at all, if\taxes are ever to be reduced to res have to be some very radical change in this war’ job business..
