Britain on Her Own | The end of April saw the British pound sterling | back to its pre-war level, due to America’s $300.-| 000,000 credit extended to England two years ago. This help by America was essential when Great Britain returned to gcld in 1925 and it was an open question whether the pound could be maintained on that basis. And $200,000,000 of the total credit was extended officially by the United States through the Federal Reserve system, the effect of the ar- rangement being to set up in this country what | amounted to a huge gold reserve for Great Britain. England, fortunately, has never had to make use of this American credit. As a second line of finan- | because the first line, England’s own resources and! sound financial policies, had not been penetrated. | The Sterling exchange, after two years of the gold standard, is well above the gold shipment point. } And this despite a long and trying coal strike, When the credits were obtained the Chancellor of | the Exchequer declared: “These great credits. across the Atlantic have been obtained and built uv as a solemn warning to speculators of every kind and of every hue and in every country of the resistance they will encounter and the reserves witit | which they will be confronted if they attempt to! disturb the gold parity which Great Britain has | now established.” 4 How correct he was time has shown as one of the most brilliant chapters in England’s financial his- tory comes to a close. The Life Span Increases anti-vivisection question has been raise again and, doctors’ testimony notwithstanding. there has been a vigorous demand for cessation of what is claimed to be “cruelty to animals. It remains for Dr. Simeon Flexner, dircetor of The loéal people. They had faith in the city of Bis- Marck and in its appreciation of the Chest plan.) That their faith was nct mistaken’ was proved by | the campaign's success. | ; All the ‘e clubs and other organizations Which furnished solicitors to help put the drive over @egerve praise for their cooperative spirit. Those Who contributed so liberally to the fund deserve Praise, as well ds those who devcted much time and @ffort to seeing that the project was successfully mized and successfully carried through. With the Community Chest a reality, Bismarck is as- ured a sane and practical solution of its welfare oblems. jl The Mississippi Floods ? Devastation is visiting the Mississippi Valley, lat broad and rich area, so fertile and so valuable. Homes are being wrecked, businesses ruined, levees | demolished beyond hope of repair, crops ruined,! Bi¥es lost—everywhere within the flood area the hand of fate is writing a moving picture of grim é ly, pathetic in its record of chaotic demolition, its untold human suffering. ¢ {The world is getting somewhat calloused to hor- Tors, there seem to be so many cf them. Life seems te mean so little these days. explosions, wars, all sorts of disasters, have taken their toll of our sympathies until we wonder if tere is anything that will arouse them again. nd yet this tragedy, this catastrophe of the lssissippi, does obtain that sympathy.

Visual Education Public schools in twelve American cities this fall will experiment with moving pictures as educa- tional aids. Some 40 moving pictures for use in the fourth,| fifth and si: xth grades in the study of geography, elementary science and hygiene will be shown. School authorities will check the results very care- in comparison with the old methods of study. This is well worth doing. To one who is not a teacher it seems as if the movie ought to be a magnificent way of getting little Johnnie to learn things that leave him absolutely cold when he studies about them in books. We'll await the re- sults of this experiment with considerable interest. | Editorial Comment | The Dakota Terminal (Grand Forks Herald) That the North Dakota grain terminal located in| Grand Forks is so situated as to be of real service |to North Dakota farmers in the marketing of their | | wheat, is officially recognized in the findings of | jan examiner for the Interstate Commerce Commis- ‘sion in one of the grain rate cases brought before | the commission by the terminal management. The examiner, who may fairly be regarded as an expert in such matters held that “the advantages offered make the terminal a valuable addition to the stor- age and marketing facilities of the Northwest, and an asset to the surrounding community.” He .also | points out that: “The North “Dakota terminal is situated in the heart of the Red River Valley which pro- duces a dark spring variety of wheat of high premium quality and value which is much in demand{ for the production of flour—to as- certain the quality and value of the wheat, it is an advantage to the producers to have the necessary service such as is cffered by the ter- minal at a near-by point. They not only are able to market their grain much sooner than if it had to move to the markets of Duluth or Minneapolis but they can hold it in storage at the terminal for better prices.” The examiner thus confirms several of the points that have been stressed by the Herald in the past in connection with the farmers’ grain marketing preblem, and the potential value of terminal facil- fully, to see just how effective these films are | ™ ities at Grand Forks. 2 At the same time the recognition of the terminal’s potential value calls attention again to the need of conducting the enterprise in such a manner that it ‘may give to the farmers of the state the se: it is capable and which those farmers For six days Faith had witnesses being sworn, had seen hem settle nervously into the big, high-backed chair, and pitied them r hated them, had wondered how i elt to be the cynosure of all eyes, to have one’s every word seized upon by the flving pen peint of the court stenographer.
