I eset b (Official City, State and County Newspaper) ————— ce PAYNE, BURNS ey Excellent Response it Bismarck is well on its way to meet the * quota for this year’s support of the Greater T North Dakota association, It is not always © easy to translate into hard figures the work of da volunteer organization which has for its sole object the upbuilding of the state. The Great- yer North Dakota association, however, would ¢ be justified if on no other count than that it e is selling North Dakota to its own citizens. f That is not as easy a task as might appear on + the surface. There is much inertia to over- J come in the handling of the affairs of any or- t ganization—some call it sales resistance for ® the want of a better term. f ales resistance, however, has been over- come by the Greater North Dakota association. j Jts membership comprises a large body of ac- tive business men who are anxious that this ‘ state make the best of the many opportunities t which constantly arise. The Greater North ; Dakotg association goes on the very logical as- ¢ sumption that our own people must be sold up- on this state’s future before anyone can carry the message to Garcia. Investment of a few } dollars is a direct testimonial of that faith in ¢« the state and of the efficacy of organized ef- ¢ fort in the upbuilding of a community. « There is only one danger and that is the i blight that politics puts on such an organiza- “tion, The Greater North Dakota association {has evaded such alignments as would have <a paralyzing effect upon the organization.

Or, of course, it may be pure Presidential Ire It now turns out that President Coolidge has a temper. For which discovery we have to thank, or blame, the Chamber of Commerce of the United States. The chamber, it is well known, has been conducting a campaign for $400,000,000 reduc- tion in federal taxes by the next Congress. President Coolidge, with Secretary Mellon, says that a cut of $225,000,000 is all that should be made. When the chamber intimated that the Treas- jury Deartment had purposely underestimated the surplus, offering its own figures as more {nearly correct than those of Mr. Mellon’s add- ing machines, Coolidge is said to have lost some of his coolness and exploded for the ben- efit of Washington correspondents. | We had been wondering all this time if there were not some spark of real fire behind that Vermont squint. The chamber’s statement that leven if the $400,000,000 reduction should re- isult in a deficit, let us not be bothered “while |money is so cheap,” has left us wondering no jlonger. We have seen the spark of presidential ire, jand know that the president is a very human being, after all. _ Dangerous Pilots | ““Quack flyers are as dangerous as quack doctors, and flimsy planes as dangerous as ships with rotten hulls. There are certain ‘schools of learning’ long on promises and short ‘on ethics, known as diploma mills in aviation. Their graduates constitute a distinct menace ‘to feal air progress, So far it has not been pos- sible to control the quack pilot at his source; jhence it is necessary to stop him at the field. Beware of the pilot who has no license and steer clear of the plane that tacks registration numerals on its wings.” a This is testimony of F. Trubee Davidson, as- sistant secretary of the navy. There are scores of these dangerous flyers throughout the country, at summer resorts and at roadside aviation fields. Mr. Davidson’s remedy, forbidding unlicensed pilots to fly and calling for rigid inspection of machines, sounds like the best possible safeguard.

There always are students who could be trusted not to abuse the car privilege. But college authorities have been taught by hard experience that there are so many who cannot keep a level head if they have the means at hand to get out of town that there must be restrictions on the whole student body for the general good. This has been found true in colleges for men, like Princeton. The restrictions are even more essential in coeducational institutions. In aplying the no-car rule the regents of the Uni- versity of Oklahoma are simply acting in the best interests of the students themselves. Fathers and mothers of university students un- doubtedly are grateful to the authorities for what they have done. After all, a university is primarily an edu- cational institution and not a social club. oe New York Begins (Atlanta Journal) It was easy enough when people moved slowly about the countryside in buggies and wagons to keep the ratio of accidents down, because a driver moving five or six miles an hour found it no inconvenience to stop, look and listen at considerable length. The motor age has roared into dominance so swiftly that the public attitude toward its consequences has not, to date, been quite able to keep pace. When a highway over which thousands of au- tomoblies whiz daily at high speed intersects a track over which engines must thunder on their appointed schedules, it is plainly time to alter the course of one of those avenues, un- important colleges and oa gp mg : ‘ing the use of the motor car by students.

They are the windows through which one can easily see into the soul of friend or stranger. We see the look of the lion or the the lover or the enemy, and that first look into strange eyes will often tell a tale far different from the story he tells you with language trained and cultivated to effect his hidden purpose. own conduct is much con- trolled by the fact that other people can see and observe our actions.

Yet, how true it is that no two peeple react the same to the same visual stim- ulus. We are always limited in our reactions to a sight stimulus by the amount of understanding we have of what we see.
