The proposal of Representative Britten that the naval affairs com- mittee of the United States house of representatives and a delegation from the house of commons meet to discuss naval limitation was support- ed editorially today by the Liberal Daily News. The Paper remarked that the congressman might have broken a statutory law of the Unit- ed ‘States in that he did not act hg diplomatic channels and said: “His real crime is that he has publicly administered to tw govern- mets bursting with etiquette severe dose cf common sense.

Today Catton discusses public health. “ee This is By BRUCE CATTON When the average American turns his mind back to the Thanksgiving Day of his forefathers, he usually sees a hardy race of people, kept in excellent physical trim by hard work in the open, unsoftened by luxuries, living a simple and healthful life that brought them more real happi- ness than all of our modern conven- iences bring, us. . That is one of the traditions of the “good old days”—a tradition that is always brought out and dusted off around ‘Thanksgiving. — Like many hoary traditions, it is a myth, pure and simple. ically than his descendants, the American of 75 or 100 years ago was in much poorer shape. He was neither so strong nor so healthy. He did not live so long. If he fell ill, he could not begin to get such good medical care. In dealing with the human race in large numbers, strength may be measured very fairly by size. Re- cent investigations have proved that the Americih of 50 years ago was shorter, by two and one-half inches, than the American of today. The “hardy pioneers” of legend were not, ordinarily, so fit or husky as their city-bred descendants, aa In the matter of general health, the contrast is even more striking— and favorable to the present era. The “good old days” must have been especially good for the under- taker. Tobe sure, fewer people died then of cancer, or of diseases of the heart or kidneys. But those are diseases that usually develop| fairly late in life; and in the old days comparatively few people lived to the age where these diseases got in their work, The death rate of babies under one year of age was more than twice as great in the days of our grand-| fathers as it is now. The child in| those days had ten times as much| chance of dying of diphtheria as the child of today. A child in his ‘teens! was three times as likely to die of consumption and between five and ten times as likely te die of small- pox or typhoid fever as a modern youngster; and in these degenerato, civilization-softened days the aver- age American has clean lost ail chance of making his exit from this world by means of yellow fever, ty- Phus or cholera. It is not so many years since those maladies were far from uncommon in the United States, eo « Many of our forefathers died of & pursing intestinal inflammation, which was extremely hard for doc. lors of that day to treat success- fully. The same malady occurs to- day; but now it is called by a differ- and the patient simply has national etiquette.

Few factory owners dreamed of installing safety devices about the machinery; and the long hours and poorly venti- lated workrooms, led to fatigue and mental exhaustion that made the workman far more liable to acci- jdents than he is today. The “good old’ days” 160k ‘fine, from this distance. We swallow all the old traditions at face value, and we feel that thete must have been a savor to life in the old days that is |lacking now. But we simply shut lour eyes to the facts. The workingman in the good old days was grossly underpaid. As a |result, he was often underfed. He jcould not organize to better his working conditions or his pay; he was simply there to be exploited, and the early industrialists did an excellent job of it. In the things that make life pleasant and worth living—good food, decent hours of leisure, comfortable living condi- tions, bodily health, the chance to educate his children and fit them for something better than he had ever known—the average citizen of today is so far ahead of his ances- tors that there is no comparison, We have, after all, a good deal to be thankful for this Thanksgiv- ing week. (THE END) Furlow Sees Special Farm Relief Session Rochester, Minn., Nov. 30.—(P)— A special congressional session will be necessary to obtain definite and adequate farm relief, Congressman Allen J. Furlow of the First district said today, as he prepared to leave r Washington to attend the closing session of the seventieth congress. “I don’t look for any farm relief legislation at the coming short ses- sion,” Congressman Furlow said. pie) NO SYMPATHY FOR LARY Insistent demands from Lyn La that he be given part of the pur- chase price received by the Oakland club from the New York Yankees for his services are getting the cold shoulder, from the owners of both clubs. —_—_—_—_——_ Have you the STRENGTH orthwest Will Send Its Finest Stock to Int SENT FARMERS FOR HAIL LOSS | Burleigh County Farmers Will Receive Only $25,617.73 of Total ARE PAID BEFORE XMAS 593.81; Mountrail Second Is Work of writing more than 20,- 000 checks for a total of $3,867,263.- 03 rapidly is being completed by the state hail insurance department.

The heavy loss experience of this year proves the wisdom of amending the state hail insurance law to pro- vide for the creation of hail insur- ance districts and for raising the limit of the indemnity tax. Had the old law been effective, Hagen said, it would have been necessary to pro- rate the indemnities as was done! once in the past. In the counties comprising the fourth district, in which the hail tax is the heaviest, the indemnity tax is something of a burden, Hagen said, but asserted that the “correct value of the department to the farmers may certainly be ascertained by studying the 10-year record instead of using figures for one year only.” Information obtained from insur- ance journals and other sources, Hagen said, shows that private in- surance companies also suffered severe losses in this and other north- western states in 1928, In many| cases, he said, the losses far excred-} ed the premium income pong insurance policies and the insurance was carried at a heavy loss to the compai involved.
