(Official City, State and County Newspaper) Memorial Day In Flanders fields the poppies grow between the } $ crosses, row on row— And in countless green hillsides of America today, roses and peonies, hawthorn and lily, are wind blown as they mantle the graves of our dead—the graves of our soldier dead and the graves of our ilian dead—-just those we loved a little while and lost. | “In Flanders fields the poppies blow ~ Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place, and in the sky The la till bravely singing, fly, Scarce heard amid the guns below.” Strangely enough, the least known of any line in this best known of all Memorial Day poems, is the line of hope buried therein— “The larks, still bravely singing, fly—” Not Death itself can still Life, says the poem. Not even green graves where sleep those loved by us Who bear them blo of memory, can choke the singing something within each and every one of which reaches out for life and more life abundant. The dead would wish it so. Memories and lov for them, yes. Blossoms abloom in the heart for | them each day, even as they bloom upon their graves this Memorial Day. But no dirge. No cloud upon the day Just a “carrying on” they ask of us. Our home dead ask for a “carrying on” of living, even though living without the beacon light of love seenrs an empty thing. Our soldier dead—those brave, gallant, laughing soldier dead of ‘61, of ’08 and of “18, ask for a ‘carrying on,” if no compromise with the foe when ight is right— z “Take up our quarrel with the foe: + To you from falling hands we throw Honor System Failure? Miss Gertrude Dowell, Secretary of the Student Council of the State Normal School at Towson, Md., says that the honor system in schools fails because “the students refuse to take upon themselves the |responsibility of reporting violations of the laws set down by student government.” It seems only fair to call attention ty the fact that for countless former has been swift, sure, and ranging through {the gamut from unpleasant to fatal. The honor em, therefore, whose success depends upon the willingness to inform the recognized authority of violations by fellow students, is doomed to failure; selves the responsibility of reporting violations,” but because they cannot reconcile honor and tat- tling, the latter, to them, being a viulation of the first. In ordinary civil life the same difficulty is ex- perienced by the authoriti in receiving reports of violations of the law. ‘Theoretically the supposed to report violations to the police—but they never do, considering, no doubt, that it would be an exhibition of smallness of character. So it is a mistake to require students to inform against their fellows: it is a greater mistake to ask it in the name of honor, for that goes against instinct. Any breaking down of voluntary. adherence to the un- written laws of honorable behavior can be nothing short of disastrous. An honor system that employs this means of enforcing obedience to its laws, not only ‘defeats own ends, but weakens the moral fibre of society. States’, Rights In the old Colonial Capital of Virginia, where 150 y the first demand was voiced for Amer- ican independence, President Coolidge has called upon the states of the union to assert their rights and so function that there may be a contraction of the rai ations of the Federal government rather than an extension Mr. Coolidge contrasted the concepts of government formulated in those early days with present day practices, and asserted that the states are surrendering their powers to the Fed- eral government by “sleeping on their rights.” This is too apparent to permit of argument: cither through indifference or indolence, the states have shifted their responsibilities upon the nation. Which might be all very well, if, with the responsibilites, they had not also. shifted their rights. We need a political r th and a quickening of the public conscience, a realization of civic duty and a willingness to assume its burdens and responsi- We need to shake off the political lethargy generations “tattling,” or tale- | bearing, has been considered a heinous offense un- {der all ethical codes and the punishment of the in- | not because “the students refuse to take upon them. | oS Gossip | “{ still can’t understand why M Cleaver being the most jealous per- son in the world has anything to do with me,” I remarked pettishly. that saps our vitaltiy and look to running our local affairs and retaining our local rights; for the state may survive without the nation, but not the nation without the state.

The New Dry Ruling It will ke very interesting to follow the experi- ences of various states in trying out the new booze ruling by President Coolidge which empowers the appointment of state officers as Federal prohibition officers. California will likely be the first place that the idea will be tried out, but meanwhile the ruling itself has caused a veritable spasm through- out ‘the country. It has created. vfolent discussion, with opinion being cither definitely for or definitely against the plan, which was put into effect by Presi- dent Coclidge on the suggestion of Colonel Lincoln C. Andrews, in charge of prohibition enforcement. Thé scheme would call into the enforcement serv- ice all state, county and municipal officers, those ‘eing used in the liqu vice receiving a small re- it rer from the federal government in addition to rage of disapproval, the wets being: afraid that it really will make prohibition effective. Aligned with the wets are those who believe that the president has no right to promulgate such a ruling. The first thing to be decided is whether it really is a legal ruling. After that we can approach the question as to its appropriateness or its effective- ness. On the latter point there will be nothing as [oat to as a trial and error procedure, such as is \ \ about to be staged in California, Polish Situation The Polish situation is fraught with grave dangers pr all of Europe. By no means is it true that the whole Polish nation is united in approval of Pilsud- ski and his assumption of dictatorship, even pend- ing the election of another president. Poland has jot yet had time to create’ for itself a national char- ter. For generations sections of what is now land were included in the jurisdictions of other ations. There was German Poland, Russian Poland ind Austrian Poland. The difference in these see- ions is not only one of custom, but also one ¢f inguage. Other elements comprising the body litic are the Liberals, the Radicals, the Commun- its, the Rights, the Lefts—in fact, Poland is simply seething mass of petty factions. It was this fact | caused the inefficient operation of the Polish tional government, the mistakes of which created jion that enabled Pilsudskito sweep enough em with him to a military coup at once, unex- and complete. very hard to judge what is going on in wever, ‘The Pilsudski government says there is\o censorship but newspaper correspond- ents wi we journeyed into Germany in order to ph Tits, state that there is and, that Pil- aideki in nok that there is and, that ‘then, ‘completel @. new government for the ly and construct- wen so many strong admirers bear fruit in the fact that no one has filed:in opposition to him. The municipal radio station of the city of New York is under fire because of a “joke” told by a city official over it, which tended to disparage the Jew. It is only another evidence of the complete mis- management which has characterized the opera- tion of this station ever since its inception. The New York station would confer a favor on the radio audience by closing down and eliminating that much disturbance from the ether. | EditorialComment —_| Entering a Disclaimer (St. Paul Dispatch) With the return of St. Paul Trade tourists on as much of the territory had not been reached by any of the previous tours,” 41 in number, there comes word that some newspapers on the main line of the Northern Pacific take umbrage at the des- ignation of the section visited as “an unknown coun- try,” and “the hinterland of North Dakota,” and are much exercised by the supposed imputation upon the prosperity and progress of that region. Certainy no such imputation ever was intended. Our reference to this section was historical in character and was meant to draw attention to the great development in the past decade or so. To deny the hard work of the pioneers would, it seems to us, rob the people of credit for the great ud- vances made of recent years by means of courage, thrift and agricultural genius. This is something the Pioneer Press would not have go without recog- | nition. The riches of today were born of the pio- ners of yesterday. They ought not to be forgotten. Mill Losses (Grand Forks, Herald) The state mill lost money again in April. It loses money quite regularly when interest charges against it are figured, as they must be in order to determine whether or not the concern is a profitable one from the standpoint of its commer- cial operation. out taking into account any incidental benefits which may result from the existence of the mill, the plant should be closed.
