+PAGE FOUR ° fo The Bismarck Tribune An Independent Newspaper THE STATE’S OLDEST NEWSPAPER x (Established 1873) The Second A. E. F. It is hard to realize that the pilgrimage of the “Second A. E. F.” to Paris has already started. But a dispatch from Cherbourg Tuesday conveyed the information that more than 350 Legionnaires have already landed, to await in Europe the ar- rival of their comrades for the September con- vention. = _ Published by the Bismarck Tribune Company, Bismarck, N. D., and entered at the postoffice at Bismarck as second class mail matter. George D. Mann..... «..»-President and Publisher | The dispatch also tells should go far to quiet the disturbing rumor that |the Frenchmen were becoming bitter enemies of the Americans. Here is what the dispatch says: “The French reception to Legionnaires was one 6.00 jot unfeigned cordiality. Groups surrounded them. shaking their hands, and others cheered.” Not much “enmity” shown there, was there? Not much distrust for Americans. 3 As a matter of fact, what the “second A. E. F.” members will do will be to cement more closely American and French relations. The only thing which has kept the French and the Americans apart is the Atlantic ocean and the Legiohnaires, crossing it, will act as another group of “unofficial ambassadors.” Subscription Rates Payable in Advance Daily by carrier, per year ... jy by mail, per year, (in Bismarck) aily by mail, per year, + (in si outside Bismarck)........

How large a percentage of these farms were mortgaged could not be determined, but the causes for departure may be classified in these general groups of reasons: Economic, 37.8 per cent; old age and physical disabilities, 25.2 per cent; op- portunity to give children better schooling, 10.9 per cent; because of having achieved a competency, 2.5 per cent; in order to let son have farm, 1.8 per cent; all other reasons, 21.8 per cent. Nearly 650,000 persons deserted their farms last year, and it is apparent that the next census will show a rural population of less than 26,000,000 whereas in 1910 the rural population was 32,000,000. Secretary of Agriculture Jardine, discussing this trend, sees in it a natural long time adjustment which need not operate to the disadvantage of agriculture, and in this view he differs with many. . of the alarmists who see in the trek from the field to the city the certain ruination of the country. He is, probably, more nearly correct than the view- ers-with-alarm, for after all the major concern is _ that we have adequate production, and not that s0 many millions of people be living the rural life. With 37.5 per cent of the city-going farmers driven into towns for economic reasons, it is ap- parent that the farm situation is gradually adjust- _ing itself. The farmers remaining on the soil are those who are at the worst making both ends meer. Admiral Jones laid special stress on the fact that, in time of war as our navy now stands, it 4s not sufficiently large to keep sea communications open. In this respect, Admiral Jones will find that the majority of Americans agree with him. Most citi- zens do not think that in one stroke a big navy should be completed. But they do believe that it should come gradually so that we may be able to maintain our standing in the world. With our growing dependence on international trade, we must be prepared to defend it not only from commercial onslaughts but from onslaughts by hostile navies. The cnly way this can be done is by gradually building up a navy which will at all times be able to furnish the merchant marine pro- tection. | Editorial Comment | Averting Wisconsin’s Shame (Minneapolis Journal) Luckily Governor Zimmermann cherishes the good name of Wisconsin more than the Legislature, does.

What he says should make good reading for Governor Al Smith and the nullificationists of New York. Protecting Our Youth (St. Paul Daily News) “If four excursion boats, each containing 1,000 boys and girls. were to sink in Lake Michigan and every child should drown, a thrill of horror would go round the world. * * * Four thou- sand boys and girls were drowned. They were drowned in the United States last year.” This is the vivid manner in which Thomas E. Rivers calls attention in the current issue of the Red Cross Courier to the need of doing something about the annual toll of drowning among our boys and girls, Certainly he can not adequately describe the horror that would result if all these drownings were to take place at one time. The’ very dramatic force of such a tragedy would result in a wide- spread public demand for action to prevent ‘this unnecessary loss of life. Yet comparatively little thought is given by the public to the isolated instances which in the ag- gregate make the same total. What can be done about it? Mr. Rivers cor- rectly states that the problem can not be solved by trying to prevent or even swim- ming, boating, fisting or other forms of aquatic sport. ~ fs pee His proposal is that more safe places for the enjoyment of these sports ‘be provided through social veneer and has made its deeds ore attractive than they used to be. The old mailed fist system of diplomacy is gone, as far as ‘ammany is concerned, but it is a question whether there is any more corruption with the gloved hand ystem than with the old blunt way once used. as it just has, it writes poetry, and its cubistic looking charts of price ranges from June to Sep- ‘masterpieces “of art. the establishment by communities of swimming pools and bathing beaches where there is adequate super- vision. and where persons, young and old, ean learn something else whic’ mit the manufacture and sale of beer containing ane the Duncan measure would be without force.
