As a matter of fact, it is one of the most wildly romantic and colorful things ever heard of; and the fact that the tin-can tourist will shortly be abroad upon the highways ought to prove it to anyone. | Year by year, the custom of vacationing by auto has taken a firmer and firmer hold on the mass of the popu- lation. It is a far more significant custom than we ordi- narily dream. Its effects on the national psychology, the national outlook, are profound and far-reaching. ‘About this time every year a restlessness steals over the land. Staid and sober citizens fumble with maps, dream day-dreams about distant roads, overhaul weather-beaten camping outfits, speculate on the distance the family fi- nances can carry them. People who live within hailing distance of the Pacific talk of trips to such places as Chicago and Baltimore; easterners consider the magic of sunset cities like Seattle and San Diego; inhabitants of the midland look both ways at once, and balance the __THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE large degree. While foreign trade is limited by natural waste elimination. SERVICE OF THE PRESS interested and meritorious service by newspapers and members of the journalistic profession. With the selec- tions of the award committee there is no quarrel. This annual recognition of the public work newspapers and newspapermen are doing is prized by them, not be- awakens an often unappreciative and unsympathetic public to the contributions of journalism to the security and happiness of the people. What was it that attracted recognition this time? A newspaper campaign against “ambulance chasing” law- yers, an editorial denouncing lynch law, informative newspape: correspondence and a reportorial expose of a fraud against the government. Contradicting near-sighted critics who see nothing in the modern newspaper but that which provokes some Personal prejudice, the Pulitzer awards emphasize the efforts of newspapers in the public interest. That news- Papers do discourage graft and corruption, preverve free- dom of speech and other liberties of the people, and dis- arm those who would substitute tyranny for democracy, is conceded by all fairminded persons. its efforts for the public welfare. THE PROBLEM OF THE TARIFF Making a tariff law thece days is a far more compli- ; cated and momentous business than it was a decade or so ago, before the overseas market loomed large in the eyes of American industrialists, Frank H. Simonds, well-known expert on international affairs, points this out in an article in the current Re- view of Reviews. Both Canada and South America, says Mr. Simonds, are planning on reprisals if American tariffs are meas- urably raised. Canada now buys from the United States nearly a billion dollars worth of goods; if the tariff on imports from Canada goes up, a great share of these goods will be bought from Britain. The same is true in South America, where the United States is just emerging into the first rank of exporters. England and Germany, Mr. Simonds warns, will get back much of the business Uncle Sam took away from them if South American exports to this country are taxed. It's a knotty problem, this fixing of a tariff.

EXPORTING 1,000,000 AUTOS President Hoover was advised by a delegation of motor car manufacturers the other day that a million American automobiles will be shipped out of the country this year. ‘This prediction is supported by exports for the first four months and by the president's pledge to use the machin- ery of the department of commerce to open up new mar- kets for American-made cars. No phase of the nation’s foreign trade during the last decade has been more packed with interest than the steady growth of automobile exports. In spite of high duties imposed by European countries to protect their i ‘ domestic motor car manufacturers, the inroads of the a made-in-America cdr has been tremendous. Each year a these exports grow. In this respect South America has es been thoroughly Americanized. Untapped foreign markets are the future hope of motor car manufacturers. They fear that the saturation point has about been reached in the United States and that for future expansion they must depend upon foreign buyers. And they have not been neglecting this new field. It will be many years before the motor car con- sumption of the world will be a fixed quantity, for less than 20 per cent of the world’s automobiles are found outside of the United States. Have not the motor car makers a legitimate reason for being optimistic? y THE WAR ON WASTE That the governmental machinery set up by Herbert Hoover while secretary of commerce to abolish industrial and commercial waste did not stop functioning with his ascension to the presidency is apparent from the com- Prehensive program of the anti-waste campaign the * bureau of foreign and domestic commerce is launching under the direction of Dr. Julius Klein. Doctor Klein puts to the hation the pertinent ques- tion, “What does it profit a country to sell billions of dollars’ worth of goods to other countries, if it throws away the same amount of money in waste at home?” But he does not stop there. While President Hoover strives to increase the nation's foreign trade, Doctor Klein is waging = determined and immediately successful war on ‘economic waste at home.

The clatter of fire horses’ hoofs is no longer heard in the streets but only the roar of mo- tors. Many a private stable has been made over into a Garage. Even on the farms, tractors plow up pastures and combines chug through fields of wheat where once oats was @ more common crop than now. Machinery has no appetite for oats. As told by columns of government figures, the horse population of America is 6,000,000 less than it was ten years ago. But down at Louisville Saturday enormous crowds as- sembled for a great annual event. Special trains came from every direction bringing more people. The city was aflutter with excitement. It was the sporting and social capital of America. Finally the thousands craned their necks, watching with breathless interest to see the Ken- tucky derby run. No mere automobile can arouse human emotions so much as a flesh and blood struggle of fine horses. On the turf and in the race the horse is still supreme.

We know one meteorological cycle by ich we can make predictions with reasonable assurance —that of the solar year. Over any twelve-month period temperatures can be plotted in a fairly smooth curve. It is as certain as anything on this earth than any Jan- uary in the temperate zone will be considerably colder, on the avearge, than any July. But is there a similar cycle extending over years in- stead of months? Let us assume such a cycle of twelve years corresponding roughly in meteorological phenom- ena with the twelve-month cycle that we know. Then there would be a January year, a February year, a May year, a July year and a December year. We could predict * with assurance that the November year would be colder than the May year. None would welcome information of such a cycle more than the professional meteorologists—the staff of the United States Weather Bureau and the official fore- casters of other nations. Their work would be easier. Their services would be of more value. They have examined most of the alleged circular pe- riods and found that they simply do not exist. Belief in chem, however, is based in observations which have not been subjected to rigid mathematical analysis.
