Thousands of citizens whose ancestry is found in the fjords of Norway and representative of that countr are united in singing the praises of this country. And rightly so. But to come to think of it, does not the United States owe to the Norse pioneers a recognition of their con- tributions to the natior Largely a sea-faring folk, the sturdy Norsemen came and settled on the vast tracts that were later to become sperous farms. The cent to no little extent to the des opened a large area that soon the nation’s standing in the world. The Norwegians have here an opportunity that would result to good advantage both to themselves and to the coun- try. There are large areas that still have to feel the plow. No more desirable element than immigrants from the Sean- dinavian peninsula can come here. And it is the duty of local Norwegians to demonstrate to the visitors the great advantages of settlement in the country of their adoption. ndants of the Vikings who to contribute largely to SENATOR McCUMBER’S NEW POST North Dakota friends of Former United States Senator McCumber will rejoice in his return to public life. unfortunate day for North Dakota when its senior senator was defeated through lack of harmony in the Republic ranks. His abilities as a diplomat have been recognized Db; President Coolidge who has placed him upon the Interna- tional Joint Commission. : Porter J. McCumber’s long service on the Foreign Rela- tions committee of the United States Senate fits him emi- nently for his new office. It enables him to round out his career at Washington and to continue to give his fine talents to the public service. * WHY LAWS ARE VIOLATED Laws, laws and still more laws has been the cry representative of organizations who would have the nation do as they do and who believe with fanatic fervor that the er tion of laws is the only remedy for the ills that beset man- kind. Crusades are conducted by well-meaning people and the outcome i fierce and intense until now the multiplicity of laws promises to make the country safe for no one but the reformers. An abundance of laws can lead to only one thing—law | violation. every turn and movement. Every day we violate laws which are still on the statute books but which e become obso- lete with time. Indeed, who can be mindful of laws made years ago when every year brings its own flock of regula- lations? The individual no longer orders his life. The state has become the master of his fate and captain of his soul. It is no wonder that Gov. John J. Blaine of Wisconsin sounded an ominous warning in welcoming the Women’: Catholic Order of Foresters to his state last week. The efforts of those who seek to impose their opinion on the remainder | of the people, he said, will in time result in moral decay. CLIPPER SHIPS A group were inspecting pictures of old-time Yankee clippers, the famous ships such as Dana described that spread great white wings and bore the breath of romance across =: the ocean. =~ “What a pity those ships had to die and be replaced by steamers,” said one. In a way, he is right. Something of beauty, something = of poetry is gone from the sea that will never be replaced. ="=You cannot write an epic like “Two Years Before the Mast” =<-e#bout a rusty tanker or an oil-burning fruit steamer. : But, aside from the question of speed and efficiency, S=iremember this: the old Yankee clipper was a hell on earth for her crew. Men were paid starvation wages, crowded in 3=damp quarters and subjected always to blows and curses _ from above. = The modern sailor, at least, can be happier and more com- ‘4,,fortable than could Dana’s contemporaries. pone sg SWIMMING eg Right now is an excellent time of year for parents to see to it that their boys are careful about visiting the old swim- ming hole. Throughout the northern half of the nation, at any rate. thé waters are still pretty cool even though the days are hot. And a plunge into icy water on a hot day can very easily ad to tragic results. +Be careful! Better wait a few days for pleasure than The scientist who seriously declared that people will soon «/ lose the use of their legs if they continue to ride in auto- mobiles must have exaggerated, to say the least.

MONDAY, JUNE 8, 1925, DEMOCRACY ITSELF GOES ON TRIAL IN DAYTON By Chester H. Rowell A teacher in a small California town was discharged on charges which he claims are false. So he is demanding “vindication.” Whether he gets it or not, nobody outside a small circle will know or much care. Another teacher, in a small Tennessee town ,is arrested for violating a state law. The whole world watches, eminent counsel volunteer their services, on both sides, and the town accommodate the crowds. What is the difference? Simpy that in the one case an individual is on trial, no {different from ten thousand other individuals on trial every day in all the courts of the land, while in the other case the freedom of the human spirit is on trial and the advance- ment of humanity is the issue. martyrs and crusaders died ; and centuries of heroic heretics, reformers and revolutionists pioneer-: council erects tents and installs a broadcasting system,, to . For this issue, Gallileo struggled, recanted and suffered; i ed the way. For the imprisonment of the hu- man soul in the shackles of dogma, our ancestors paid the price of @ thousand years of stagnation, and on the release of those shackles the whole of cur modern civilization is founded. ‘here is no danger of losing it. Light can drive out darkness, but not darkness light. But we are test- ing whether, in this ostensibly en- lightened land, democracy, the rule of the greater number, is the enemy of progress, and is fit to be trusted with the responsibility of civiliza- tion. | The Republican National Commit- tee is said to have adopted “stand by the president” as the slogan for the coming campaign. slogan, It is a good we add a better ruits ye shall know But maj By their During Roosevelt's term the Con- gressional Committee held a meet- ing to plan the campaign.

The House of Representatives, on domes- tic policies, get by with;it this time. mes will be good, and taxes lower —though not. if the House can help it, more intelligent. But the Senate, in charge of for- eign affairs, must either really stand by the president, or else quit pre- tending to do so. THE DULLEST PAPER IN ALL THE WORLD The Democratic National Commit- tee has a scheme, too. It proposes to establish a national weekly in Washington, the “National Demo- erat,” If that weekly is half as bad as its prototype, the “National Repub- licar’—it would be beyond human skill to make it worse—God have mercy om those. who read it!

And at any age diabetes is ten times as common among people who are overweight as those who are un- derweight. Statistics show that diabetes is in- creasing at an alarming rate. Many have diabetes who are una- ware of it. The symptoms are loss of weight, lack of strength, headache or skin eruptions.

SOLUTION OUGHT TO BE FAIRLY EASY __ Two federal boards are tomplain- ing of congressional “requests for information,” the Inter-State Com- merce Commission on the ground of physical impossibility and the Fed- eral Trade Commission in the fear of politics. replies with a threat to abolish the trade commission entirely. It is not necessary to decide who is wrong. Congress or the commis- sions, Probably both. The point is that there would be no need of any such difficulty, if we would profit by the experience of practically the whole world, as to the best way to make these “requests.” “Interpellation” is not a new or doubtful experiment. It is a tried success, perhaps the most undisput- ed success, among the mechanisms of free government. If we, had it here, these commis- sions would be government depart- ments, or bureaus of them, and the heads of these departments would be on the floor of Congress, to answer questions. If a request for information was beyond physical possibility, or so burdensome to be beyond’ reason, the department head would say so, and a brief discussion would de- velop what was really wanted, and the best way to supply it. If the request was politics, the political Hvad of the department would be there to meet It. The only objectino to adopting this well-tried scheme here is that it has been inenvted since 1789, and we have been taught to regard it ‘as unpatriotic to know anything i that has been found out since then. IN HEALTH TAY THIN, AVOID DIABETES | as an absolute indication of diabetes, however. Many diabetics suffer from an un- quenchable thirst, and drink enor- mous quantities of water Diabetic sufferers should consult a physician, and live strictly up to his rules and’ regulations. Diet is one of the: most important things to watch in the treatment. Sugar is believed to be not only cause. for diabetes, but also very in- jurious to one’s chances for recov- ery.
