DETPOIT CHICAGO Kresge Bldg. | Tower Bidg. ; (Official City State and County Newspaper) The Big Parade President Coolidge and the industrial east have their answer to the presidential veto of the McNary-Haugen bill in the open, organized * political revolt of the farmers of the Mississippi Valley states. The language of the presi- dential veto was not calculated to placate. h It was an emphatic, impatient, tactless : negative, bluntly stated and couched in terms : of some arrogance. Yet perhaps the veto and the veto message will yet qualify as one of the most constructive influences toward the solution of a situation + that for four years or more has commanded ‘ the attention of the entire country. For it has roused the farmers and it has . made them belligerently active in their own + interests to a degree seldom witnessed in this country. Today the class of men who came west with a broad-beamed breaking plow swung under- * neath a covered wagon drawn by oxen, fording rivers, fighting Indians, scaling mountains, en- - during the heat of deserts to make the in- ‘ dustry of agriculture are engaged in a spec- tacular pilgrimage from 11 western states to the Kansas City Republican convention to de- * mand farm equality. Regardless of the proportions this colorful demonstration attains, it is a remarkable dem- onstration of American independence. Its mo- tives are grounded in the deepest patriotism. The heart of eyery western farmer will be in the big parade,;whether he is present in per- son or not. Ard every true son of the west, whether he is a‘farmer or not today is rooting for these crusaders militant. More power to them, Without other recourse at this time they are availing themselves of about the only oppor- : tunity they have left to demonstrate- their } sincerity and their deep and patriotic in- { terest in the country they have played the largest part in making. Every thinker today recognizes the import- ance of the issue of farm equality. The talk ' of farm relief is happily being abandoned. The term never truly expressed the situation as its solution is sought in the political field. The term farm equality expresses it most fully. The Republican party may ignore the de- mands of the farmers of these western states for a farm equality plank in its platform. If it does it is simply furnishing campaign thunder for the Houston convention. The * Democrats will receive the militant farmer with open arms. There can be no doubt of his militancy or how he will express it. i There are two objectives of the farmers’ demonstration at Kansas City. They insist that @ western man understanding their needs and sympathetic to their viewpoint be nominated for president. They will have none of Mr. Hoover. Toward Mr. Coolidge they are cold. They insist on a farm equality plank which simply means making the tariff effective. North Dakota was a trail blazer in the long fight that is culminating in a spectacular de- mand for action at a national convention. The | issue was made here more than a decade ago. ‘ There have been mistakes, failures, ramific: tions, but the issue remains and today this state is joined by. all the Mississippi Valley states. Sometimes we may forget this agrarian issue _ in the exigencies of practical politics. But it always bobs up. To Republican party harmony and.solidarity it has become a real menace. Go to it, Hiram! North Dakota is in step with the marching farmers today. Mr. Shafer Keynotes George F. Shafer, Independent Republican candidate for governor, in his keynote speech at Goodrich, sounded a deep note of gloom and assumed the role of chief mourner at a funeral that is as much his own as anybody's. He rang all the changes on the issue of state industrialism, which his record shows he has never had official fortitude enough to meet. He declared the policies of the political fac- jagement of state industries. THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, TUESDAY, JUNE 5, 1928 ing assurance they will do anfthing about it?! There is not. | Mr. Shafer is eminently right when he de- | clares that after 12 years of strife, struggle and “constant political warfare the principal issue in North Dakota still remains unsettled.” He might have added that no effort of his or of his friends has ever been undertaken to that end. | They have waxed fat and bold upon this strife and struggle and they seek today to per- petuate it. Mr. Shafer himsclf is a most effec- tive tool to that end. Mr. Shafer ever loudly decries political man- | Yet his remedy for the state mill situation is administration of it by a board composed of two Nonpartisans and one, Independent. Herein he has taken a! leaf from Mr. Townley's political notebook and | reached deeply in Mr. Townley’s bait can. The losses of the state mill ate nothing new. They began under Mr. Nestos and continued un- der an industrial commission ot which Mr. Shafer was a member. His proposal at this time is to curn the mill over to the same| political faction he so roundly indicts. | This is remarkable reasoning, to say the| least. Mr. Shafer again unfolds to the people statistics hoary with antiquity. They are largely beside the point. The program: of the political factions in this state are as alike as two peas for all political purposes. The people have long looked in vain to Mr. Shafer and his Independent friends for some- thing constructive, something of real merit to be advocated as a solution of the evils they so loudly decry. Nowhere in Mr. Shafer’s keynote speech is anything of the sort to be found. Mr. Nestos has “keynoted.” Mr. Shafer has “keynoted.” They both sound off in the same old way. Both of them continue to wail and wring their hands at their own funeral. Mr. Shafer’s keynote address adds nothing to nor takes anything away from the so-called “issues” of this campaign. This is a battle of the “Ins” versus the “Outs.” By no process of clear reasoning can it be otherwise construed. Whoever the winner and whoever the loser at the forthcoming election the mill will con- tinue to grind its grists, the Bank of North Dakota will continue to be administered as is. Reconstruction in an economic way in this state must come from legislative action—Shafer knows this; the present political groupings should realize it also. Such promise as the immediate situation holds is clearly vested in the Republican group seeking state office with the endorsement of the Nonpartisan League. Taking all the facts into consideration its viewpoint is the more sane at this time. It is deserving of and will receive support upon that basis. Mr. Shafer’s keynote speech may terrify the counting rooms of some of our leading financial institutions most effectively. But it should be capitalized at face value only. Another sight draft is being drawn on those sufficiently timorous to be impressed. More misrepresentation is being heaped upon the state by its own people. So goes this battle of the “Outs” versus the “Ins.” Welcome, Odd Fellows . Bismarck extends a cordial welcome today to the members of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows here for their state convention. The order they represent is a big, fine, con- structive influence for good in this state. It is inspiration to better citizenship on the part of | thousands of its members. Its record is written large in good works. Its appeal in the fraternal field in North Dakota is especially broad and effective. Its charities are practical, They are ever well directed, ever voluntary and in accordance with the situations to which they are directed. The Odd Fellows Home in this state was an institution which it made possible. It provides 'a place in the sunset of life for many deserving people. It brings happiness to them. It serves in accordance with the most beautiful principles embodied in the teachings of Odd Fellowship. The teaching of fraternalism has come to be a large influence in the social structure of our state and country. Odd Fellows realize the responsibility here involved and they dis- charge it admirably. The grand lodge of Odd Fellows in this state is a big business as well as a big fraternal concern. The pick of its membership is here today. Bismarck is honored. It will leave nothing undone to make their visit both pleasant and profitable, for it is a real privilege to entertain them.

Visitin [___ ores SS oe | LETTER BY RODNEY DUTCHER NEA Service Writer Washington, June .5.—A presi- dential nomination costs money, but too much money is likely to cost a nomination. The investigation of the Senate campaign funds committee proved the first of those facts and demonstrated that the os well acquainted with the sec- ond. In 1920 slush funds wrecked the two leading Republican candidates. That sad experience is undoubtedly partly responsible for the fact that the reported outlay of all the can- didates is less than half the amount spent for General Leonard Wood and little more than one-sixth of the total reported spent in that year on the aspirants in both parties. The total is also less than a third of the amount spent in the vain at- tempt to win the senatorial renom- ination for George Wharton Pepper in Pennsylvania in 1926. eee Thus, there are those to say that the nation has been saved from a condition in which nominations could easily become a matter of pur- chase. And it is pointed out that the barring of Vare and Smith from the Senate as well as the revelations about the money Will Hays took from Harry Sinclair for the G. P. fund have also served to dampen the enthusiasm of both collectors and contributors. It is not, of course, certain that the $600,000 or more reported spent in the nomination campaign this year represents the entire expense. A member of the investigating com- mittee points out that it is a very easy matter to conceal large dis- bursements by making them through unofficial representatives who wouldn't be called before the committee so long as their activities were unknown. There is no evi- dence that anything of the sort has been in progress, but it is ob- vious that if any questionable use of money was made, the spenders must have realized the danger of investigation and publicity and hence acted to cover their tracks. ° has | candidates4 jeareful about accepting and spend- candidates were rather careful to warn their sipporters to be very ing. Analysis of the expenditures shows that the greater part of them come under the general head of publicity. For both Hoover, who spent more than $300,000, and Smith, with more than $100,000, it is said that their forces found it necessary or desirable to combat false propaganda spread against them. Hoover was a fighting candidate. His fight, in such primaries as those of Ohio and Indiana, cost money. More money was needed to propa- gandize New York in the face of the opposition of dominating politicians there. Undoubtedly he would have had to pay more had he been up against a primary free-for-all like that of 1920, As it was, he did not come into direct battle with Lowden, his most important opponent, in a single primary. And when a bill of $40,000 for a Hoover primary campaign in a large state is compared with the $2,000,000 Pepper fund in Pennsyl- vania, it doesn’t look like so much. It seems likely that there will never again be such an expensive pre-convention as that of 1920, when nine Republican candidates admitted O.| spending $2,860,000 and five Demo- crats $120,000. The Kenyon committee, which ex- posed the enormous investment, re- ported that! “Undoubtedly as to some of the candidates more was spent than is here indicated.” Whether the present committee will say anything like that remains to be seen. So much money was spent in 1920 because nearly all Republicans felt that the party nominee would be the next president. At least $3,000,- 000 proved to have been wasted. . The Wood campaign expenses of $1,773,000 proved a boomerang. Lowden, with a layout of $415,000, resumably would have won if a little of the money hadn’t been spent improperly without his knowledge. : Expenses for other candidates were: Hiram Johnson $195,000,000 re It appears, however, that all maa $173,000, Harding $113,000, | OUR BOARDING HOUSE By Ahern | Poindexter $77,000, Coolidge $68,000, A.

You are really at heart such a sane person, and so genuine, that I can’t bear to have you fritter away your time and your life on the trivial relationships that mean so little. For you to be jealous of Alan’s stenographer, no matter how pretty she is, is so ridiculous. Anyone who views you two with half an eye can see that Alan adores you—that is the real reason you play fast and loose with him. You are so sure of him. And I don’t see how he can feel sure of you at all. It always has been my experience, that if I stooped to jealousy it de- veloped I had worked myself up to a frenzy about nothing. The thing you worry about is usually the thing that never happens, and the big surprise comes from something you never even suspected. Florence is home—and is very dis- satisfied. Even the clothes she bought in the city seem quite to have lost their charm for her. It} seems to me that she bought with very poor taste. I do not think she wears those large figures, and arty effects well. She is very eager to return to the city, and I hope you will dis- courage it. very much here, and from your let- ters I cannot see where your big town really did anything for her or where she improved her oppor- tunities at all. She has a positive talent for sur- rounding herself with men that cause her to be talked about. Just now, the object of her affection is a man who has just come to tow. to run the book store that is being opened in the new Jones block.

Her mother needs her |® oY A LESSON ON THE DIGESTIVE TRACT It is very important that the food be “ery finely divided by the teeth so that the digestive juices may reach into the innermost portion of the food particles. Whenever there is an incomplete digestion, there is danger of food fermentation, The food passes from the mouth down the throat, through the esoph- agus, and into the stomach. The stomach is a highly elastic, muscu- lar orgen which will hold about three pints and when full is about | a foot long and four inches wide. When empty, however, the stomach contracts and occupies very little space. The stomach acts as a storehouse for food until it has been acted up- on by the gastric which is secreted by glands within the stom- ach walls. These gastric glands secrete very powerful digestive juices containing hydrochlort: acid and pepsin which not only kill the bacteria present in food, but are used to digest protein. You will realize what a wonder- ful apparatus the stomach is when I tell you that the stomach glands will secrete from two and a half to five quarts of gastric juice each day. circular, longitudinal, and oblique muscular fibres. These keep contracting ia such a way as to thoroughly churn the food and mix it with the gastric jui After digestion has the pyloric muscle rela: and allows the more liquid parts of the food to pass through into the duodenal part of the small intestine. The larger particles are usually held back until there is a good deal of surplus hydrochloric acid which has nat been absorbed by the food. This produces a reflex nervou¥ impulse to open the pylorus, allowing all of the food to p.ss through into the duodenum. When the duodenum feels the food passing into it from the stomach, an impulse is sent to the liver, gall bladder and pancreas, and their yellowish green liquid mixture is formed and cmptied into the partly : The gall bladder, which is simply a storehouse for the liver’s bile until it is needed, also empties into this duct. The bile assists in rendering the food alkaline, and counteracts the acidity whic! produced in the stomach. This assists in breaking up the fat globu producing a kind of soap, and it also acts a destroyer of bacteria, killing by alkaline stre-¢th those bacte which were not destroyed by the hy drochloric acid of the stomach, The pancreatic juic one of the most important secretions that are thrown into the intestines because it contains three powerful digestive ferments: Trypsin, a substance 3 ALTH“DIET ADVICE ‘Dr Frank Mc . thts Ie Sast: ble. to Salt The stomach is lined with} muscles | Coy which digests the proteins which re- main undigested from the stomach; amylopsin, for digesting the starches Dr. McCoy will gladly answer personal questions on health and diet, addressed to him, care of the Tribune.

The action of these digestible fluids makes the small intestine of great importance to our being. The small intestine is lined with glands similar in shape to the glands of the stomach. Their secretions assist in the digestive processes, and in addition they secrete a pecu- liar fluid which converts cane sygar into grape su; ince cane sugar cannot be used by the blood until it has been converted into the latter form.

Perched, as Mons Hays soon will be, 37 stories above the strect— or some 600 feet over the pavement —the panorama of the city is breath taking. True, a windy day in the street below may seem like a couple of gales to the “czar of filmland.” And a mild zephyr may appear to be whipping it up at a 60-mile-an- hour gate when one is perched at one of New York’s highest apart- ment points, But, just below, stretches Cen- tral park, with the morning mist rising from the lakes and the acres of trees dew-drenched and hazy. Or, way drives become a diamond bed of sparkling stones and the trees and flower gardens afe bathed in a gold- en flood. 4 ., While, all about, the city flaunts its angles, cubes and turrets, like some gargantuan improvisation on the old Mayan architecture. For that which man has built in New York can be quite as beautiful and sy-lbinding as anything on this whirling globe—and that, in spite of all the ugliness that this city tucks under its silken, rustling skirts. eee What we started out to say, how- ever, is that Will Hays will soon take up apartments in one of Goth- am’s highest residential spots. A large number of active men find quiet and comfort in the sky-touch- ing apartments.
