(Official City, State and County Newspaper) i An International Bank Mr. Frank A. Vanderlijf, famous New York banker, whose succe: than ordinary consideration in financial affairs, has made another, and most interesting, suggestion { which has clicited very favorable comment from De English financial men. Briefly, it is a proposal for } a Pan-American bank, which should be international in scope, independent of the economic laws of all European countries and probably established under the protégtion of the League of Nations. Under the plan the league council would be empowered to issue in $100 shares the initial capital of $1,000,000. The 4 proposed international bank would have a directorate \ of nine, of which.five would be Americans, and there would be stringent regulations against the directors participating in any other business. In those countries which would be shareholders in the new bank, for which the proposed title is the “Bank of the United States of Europe,” special na-| tional branch banks would be established with the capital to be determined by themselves. These na- tional branches would extend credit facilities against bills of exchange, while, should the necessity occur, the head office would supply dollars to the branch bank against duly endorsed bills. While this would be a distinctly new departure in the realm of banking, nevertheless, even to the lay mind, it has several distinct advantages. The great- est one would be in the resulting partnership of the moneyed interests of all nations. Money plays 2 large part in international relations, disagreements and wars and if these moneyed interests could be grouped as a cooperative unit much financial fric- tion would be avoided and, in consequence, war would he Tess likely. As to its stimulus to international trade no one could doubt the influence of such an international bank. It would serve to coordinate the economic forces of all the European countries and provide an efficient organization which could work very ef- feectively for better international busin relations. Traffic Deaths Professor Lewis W. McIntyre of the University of Pittsburgh, declared at a recent meeting of the } tional Highway Traffic association that traffic acci- dents in America were increasing at a proportion- ately higher rate than the production of automobiles. fl There were appr ately 16,000 deaths and 450,000 injuries to pedestrians in the United States last year, according to his figures. Pedestrians were involved in two-thirds of the automobile accidents resulting in injury or death. One suggestion made b Professor should be followed. He said that children playing between street intersections, gether with accidents to adults at street inter: tions, could be utterly eliminated, accidents to pedestrians would be cut 85 per cent, and that a na- tional movement should be gotten under way to ed- . ueate the children in the schools to play where there is no danger of being struck by an automobile, Also he would have all cities enact stringent regulations which would serve to regulate traffic at cross-walks and place a heavy penalty on jay-walking. Perhaps all these features could be combined in one ‘great nation-wide program, or campaign, for the elimination of pedestrian injuries and fatalities. If this were done a nation-wide organization would have to undertake it. Perhaps the National Safety Counncil, or the American Automobile association, or some association of insurance companies could devote the time and money necessary to an effective campaign. Certainly something must be done. Automol are forced to obey all sorts of regu- lations, traffic and otherwise, and they are handling @ cumbersome machine, whereas the pedestrian must only take care of himself. It is.easier for a pedes- trian to be careful and he should be required to take at least normal care of himself, not only for him- self, but for the sake of the unfortunate motorist in front of whose car he blindly walks, MeIntyre if accidents to to- $ Br ED es Bae oe ee ee Love or Pity? Once upon a time considerable energy was wasted on such discussions as how many angels could sit on a point of a pin, or whether angels left footprints. Nowadays we. may argue what is faith and hope and charity, and whether love is stronger than hate. The little story of a woman in Kansas City may help here. s She and her brother quarreled.

Those Shining Pates! \ To few persons is a bald head welcome. Most } men suffer terribly when their hair begins to thin out and the white crown of the head comes s through. But the Bald Head Club of Ame’ prises men so proud of their glittering cranial pos- | ns that they have deeply resented the avowed intention of a few members to advocate the endow- ; ment of a college chair to study baldness, its causes, treatment and cure, ° “No,” say the bald heads, “we will not permit such an investigation. We don’t want hair that has to be cut all the time. It’s too effeminate.” And perhaps they're right. Anyway, a bald head's cool- er in summer, A bootlegger tells us that what’s’ sauce for the goose is easy pickings for a smart duck. Editorial Comment — | The Settlement of the Strike (Chicago Tribune) | The executives of the Trades Union congress in Great Britain called off the general strike on terms; which the miners have shown reluctance to accept. | The general strike was called in support of the miners. It now appears that they were not even consulted when the peace terms were agreed upon. It is obvious, then, that the leaders of the sympa- thetic strike were eager to end it, so eager that they would not take the chance of consulting the men who were most interested in the outcome but most likely to oppose the settlement. The leaders of the strike were afraid of it. Al- It is op-j | % | “coddling” they call it. 1 oners into leading better lives, ‘usually though they denied repeatedly that the strike was revolutionary, they knew that if it continued it would become revolutionary. The general strike could not long continue under the direction of conservatives. The strike in essence was an attempt to coerce the nation. The clear duty of the government was to defend the innocent citizens from the threat against their lives and welfare, and this duty the Baldwin government accepted. Mr, Thomas, Mr. Pugh, and the other labor leaders probably had no desire to overthrow the government, but they found them- selves arrayed against it. Their position as anti- revolutionaries leading a revolutionary movement was anomalous. They had to end the strike or sur- render their leadership. We do not believe a general strike is likely ever to succeed in the face of a determined government in a country like England. The strikers are least able to bear the effect of it. As long as the police and military remain loyal, property will be protected. There will always be enough volunteers to insure a food supply and maintain the essential public serv- ices: light, heat and water. The British government remained on the defensive throughout the strike. With its control over food supplies it had an offen- sive weapon ready to be used if the need arose. The most serious threat to the public in a gen- eral strike is the tie-up of the railroads. Other pub- lic services can be maintained more easily by volun- teer workers. Twenty years ago a railroad tie-up might have brought a nation to its knees. That time has passed. Fleets of motor trucks can main- tain an emergency transportation service whicb will support a nation for months. A Striking Contrast (St. Paul Dispatch) Perhaps had the scene been set with a view of ac- centing the contrast between two men, each leaders in their group; two sets of principles, one of antag- onism, the other of cooperation; and between two methods, the one practical, the other academic, it could not have been so effective as the setting of the speech of C. Reinold Noyes, president of the St. Paul Association, at an open air concert jn Wilton, N. D., when the Trade tour train stopped at that city. Wilton is in McLean county, the greatest strong- hold of the Nonpartisan league east of the Missouri river, and the point at which the largest lignite coal mine in the state is located. Directly east of it about 40 miles is Robinson, where A. C. Townley, former leader of the Nonpartisan movement, is en- gaged in superintending drilling for oil. i Into this territory where for ten years A. C. taught the belief that business is the natural and eternal enemy of agriculture, comes C. Reinold Noyes to set before the followers of Townley that com- merce and agriculture are partners, who must risé of fall together. Language like this will not be lost on North Dakotans: We must work together for set objectives. The farming districts are just as dependent on the growth of the cities as are the cities de- pendent upon.the farms. We, in St. Paul, have definitely adopted as our program the obtain- ing of an economic equality for the farmer in so far as that may be adopted by governmental means, The indiscriminate hate of “Big Business” in- eulcated by Townley and aimed at the “Twin’Cities” hitherto without a clearly, defined understanding of the attitude of St. Paul or the support of the farm relief program hes received its first challenge.

She has 8 farewell meeting with Timmy in the garden of her Santa Barbara home.

GO ON WITH THE STORY Chapter 7. “You can't go?” Judith repeated in awed slowness. She moved nervously to the door, “Shall I lock it—shall 1 tell them?” i Then Sandy began to laugh. She laughed’ and Jaughed. She leaned on the bureau hiding her face in her hands, mirth. Judith stood there holding Sandy’s little hat. convulsed with hysterical And presently Sand; a trembling, half, ‘i Frighten you, Judy, ole dear?” She took the hat quietly, very carefully arranged the hair over her forehead., Then she went up and kissed Ju- dith, ft didn’t look in Judith’s face. She said softly: “Don't worry, ole thing, I’m all right now.” It seemed so gay to toss the beau- iful flowers over the old black ban- ister, to come running down, excited and laughing. She felt tears on her mothers face and wished to cling to her mother’s warm, plump hands. She wanted to say: “Why, I thought you were glad, Isabella!” But the rice and petals came at them in a shower. Murillo caught her arm, She waved a kiss back- ward. He was helping her into the car. He stooped down. She felt the heat of his breath and suddenly as he had in the church, he pressed his lips full on her mouth. “We're off!” he whispered exultantly. Sandy gave a little catchy laugh and trembled, | | i WAY “I don't know, Do you want mej} papers on the desk and his face got The road before them was dark. | Low trees thronged together in for- lorn, shadowy concourse.

But Sandy went on in a hi, strained voice: “What has my got to do with kissing? I'll keep on my hat as long as 1 like! Did you send all these flowers? That's very nice in you. But where's the suite? I told you to get a suite for us—" , He surveyed her in_silence—no- ticed her hands—that she had them clinched: hard, but they were shak- ing. Slowly a flicker of amusement came to his eyes. He took ott = cigarette: “Do you mind if I smoke, Sandy?” see She walked about the room touch- ing the flowers—straightening the cushion on a chair. In one corner next to long French doors was a writing desk. She said as breezily es she could, “Smoke—of course. ‘I suppose you don’t mind either if 1 write a few letters?” “I guess your letters can wait till the morning, can’t they?” -He sauntered after her. “It's past mid- night.” jut she was already seated, the pen poised at her lips, He leaned over her, pressed his“hands on hers. “Let the letters wait, Sandy.” The dark brows, so curved and so long, the moist lips came very near to her tece, “Sandy, ‘the letters can wait!” But she said bluffly: “I promised my mother to write AT ONCE! I’m an awfully prompt correspondent. One thing I never delay is writing a letter!” She could scarcely breathe. Her ips were drawn and white. Murillo id: “Do you want a drink| Sand; I've brought some fine old stuff- “No,” she said faintly. “I fon’t want a thing—nothing.’ “This won’t hurt you.” He went over to the closet, began opening his suitcase. Sandy looked at the French doors, She felt ill—a little mad. She thought wildly: “Lord—I can’t get away--I cant’—" She got up suddenly and gave the door a push. It opened on a balcony. She stepped out. The next moment she was running down a shallow ter- race. The night air blew gently in her face. (Continued.)
