Logan Payne Git Co, CHICAGO NEW YORK BOSTON Honoring Bismarck Champions The action of the city school board in planning a Physical education system from the sixth grade up through the high school is a complimentary reaction to the several high school teams’ feats in capturing two State track championships, the unofficial state football championship and the state basketball championship. The city reacted in the form of the recent public re- ception to the champion athletes and the presentation of trophy cups to the members and coaches of the teams. This appreciation showed how the city at large felt about the honor conferred on it by the boys. The school board is simply capitalizing the indorsement then expressed in cups and banners by the taxpayers. It is going to give the public what it wants by establishing this perfected system of athletics which E. B. Cox out- lined to the Kiwanis club Monday noon, in a talk at the club luncheon. The new physical education policy will serve as a feeder for the high school. It means that already down in the grades the future championship teams of Bis- marck are going to get their preliminary training to carry on in the footsteps of the present invincibles of the school. It seems like a guarantee of continued sport prestige for the Bismarck schools in the state contests, whether by districts or by state tournament at Mandan or Grand Forks. ‘The work of popularizing the city schools in this way must have an appreciably stimulating effect on them. It will make school attendance more attractive. Accord- ing to observations made on the scholarship of the athletic students, play and sport have a beneficial effect on their mental attainments as well. ‘The expense which the board is permitting itself to indulge is modest. It is estimated that the cost of the athletic system will add about $600 annually to the edu- cational budget of the city. That is even offset by the fact that one addition probably would have had to be made to the high school faculty, owing to expanding needs. The high school students hereafter should appreciate this provision just planned for them. They might try and subjected to what the record terms the most vicious sex crime, at the point of a pistol. Since when has North Dakota become a Botany bay for Minnesota’s criminal perverts? The action of the Minnesota parole board was as amaz- ing a piece of conduct as it was despicable. The un- neighborliness of it was matched by the idiocy of setting such @ criminal at liberty at all, to continue preying on society, especially women. Where does the Minnesota parole board get its code of ethics, anyhow? Surely not from a source where right is prized, respected and prac- ticed. Let it keep its criminals at home where they belong. Minnesota may think it’s Russia, but North Dakota doesn't feel it is Siberia. Hoover Victory Again The senate has been forced to its senses by the de- termined stand of the house and President Hoover on the debenture provision of the tariff bill. It had no place in that measure. Having been defeated in its Proper place, in the farm board bill and knowing what the attitude of the president was—of unyielding opposi- tion to it—the senate had absolutely no reason for press- ing it again, except that of politics. Politics in this case were, therefore, misplaced. That was no good reason for voting in the obnoxious piece of socialism attempted on the tariff. The whole object of the senate’s action was to harass and annoy the president. The trick was largely that of a combination of senators who as Democrats opposed Al Smith or as Republicans either opposed or at heart, it now may be seen, were not for Herbert Hoover for president. South- ern Democrats stood largely to profit from any political advantage that might accrue from making the deben- ture plan again an issue. But by the action of the house in forcing them to bend to its ultimatum, these senatorial enemies of the presi- dent lose. They not only lose but have been humiliated @ second time by the president. The victory of the president promises to clear up the sad tariff mess that has been made of the movement to revise the schedules in favor of protection for farm products. The sooner that is accomplished, the better. A Marine and a Mule The subscriber of a New York newspaper recently sub- mitted to public gaze the following extract from an af- fidavit made by a U. 8S. marine, who was applying for a bond to cover a lost veteran's service certificate. “I was in the U. S. marine corps in June, 1929, a mem- ber of patrol department, Jenotega, Nicaragua. While wading across the river Coyolar one of the pack mules lost his footing and was in danger of being drowned. I dove in after the mule. My service certificate and money were in my shirt pocket; these were lost, but the mule was saved.” If you have ever doubted that the marines are quite as hard, rough and ready a lot as they are reputed to be, Just read that over and let your mind dwell on it fora minute. When you have reconstructed the whole picture we think you'll agree that this marine, at least, was fully up to the highest traditions of his corps. THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, WEDNESDAY, MAY: 21, 1930 If the Main Performance Is Anything Like the Rehearsals, It’s Gonna Be Some Show! es * « 1935 we ARIES CIRCUS aw Anniversary of AMERICAN RED CROSS On May 21, 1881, the American Red Cross was formed under the leader- ship of Clara Barton, who acted as its first president. The American Red Cross society, like those of other. nations, was or- ganized largely through the activities of Jean Henri Dunant, a Swiss. An eyewitness of the battle of Solferino, Dunant published a book in which he vividly described the horrors of the battlefield caused by the inability’ of the regular surgical corps to care Properly for the wounded. The book was widely read and the resulting agitation led to an inter- national conference at Geneva in 1863 when delegates from 16 coun- tries signed what is known as the Geneva Convention which provided for the neutrality of those offically | Editorial Comment | Mrs. MeCormick’s Bargain (8t. Paul Dispatch) ‘The Democratic central committee of Illinois declares that Mrs. Ruth Hanna McCormick's Republican nomi- nation to the United States senate was not obtained for @ mere quarter of a million, That amount only pur- to emulate the successful athletic activities of the in- stitution by developing an equivalent scholastic prowess expressed in debating, music, declamation and other academic contests. It can be done. Morrow Hardly a Moses ‘The claque already is touting Dwight W. Morrow, of New Jersey, as the wet Moses to lead the United States out of the morass of prohibition enforcement as a presi- dential candidate, because he has made a somewhat theatrical pronouncement for repeal of the eighteenth amendment in his candidacy for the United States senate. It is a question whether a candidate should be ap- praised so highly when the attitude he takes palpably is one of opportunism. New Jersey is dripping wet and Mr. Morrow wants one of its seats in the federal senate. The seat in the senate is the prime thing, however. Mr. Morrow came out for that before he came out for prohibition repeal. ‘When the other candidate, Joseph 8S. Frelinghuysen, said he had repented his vote for placing the prohibition amendment in the federal constitution and the Volstead Jaw on the statute books and now favored wiping both out of existence, he drew an echo of his position from Mr. Morrow, theretofore silent as to where he stood and spouting no repeal enthusiasm up to that time. Frelinghuysen put himself en rapport with the New Jersey constituency. That, in a way, also was oppor- tunism. If New Jersey were dry, Joe Frelinghuysen would still be dry politically and it is safe to assume that Dwight Morrow would also be an echo of that attitude, as he is of the Frelinghuysen stand now. Morrow has simply been smoked out. As 8 wet Mr. Morrow, therefore, does not stand on any pedestal high enough to dignify him as a Moses for the wet forces, striking the Rock Candy mountains in an arid land with his New Jersey senatorial aspirations and causing alcoholic rills to gush forth. If the wet forces want a Moses, they must seek a proph- et elsewhere, Mr. Morrow is @ convert only and seem- ingly largely for the political profit he can get out of his conversion—which he clothes as much as possible in the mantle of adhesion. Now adhesion is a great deal dif- ferent from conversion. It will be interesting to wait and watch to see whether Mr. Morrow has won any ad- vantage by his tardy pronouncement or whether he has simply increased the political stature of Joe Frelinghuy- sen by his indorsement of the former senator's candi- Gatorial platform in the Jersey primaries of June. Minnesota’s Outrage on North Dakota Minnesota has a perverted sense of its duty as a neighbor to North Dakota. At least it has shown it in the case of Harry Chappell, just sentenced to one to five years in the penitentiary here, after a night of bur- glarious entry to a number of Bismarck apartments. When Judge Jansonius looked this burglar's parole Papers over, he was astounded to find annotated thereon 88 & condition precedent to giving the criminal liberty chased a 25 per cent interest in the nomination, if the supporters of J. Ham Lewis, her opponent, are to be credited in their assertion that contributions from other sources bring the total campaign expenditures to a mil- lion dollars. ‘The quarter of a million dollars which Mrs. McCormick admittedly spent was in itself a tidy sum to pay for a senatorial nomination. It was not at all in accordance with the prevailing notion that women are peculiarly gifted with the ability to obtain things at a bargain. But if by spending that sum Mrs. McCormick obtained three times its qnienene eon treenonrs her bargaining ability cannot be discredited. By ner nomination to the senate Mrs. McCormick demonstrated equality of rights for women in the field | of politics. By her campaign expenditures she demon- strated this equality in the field of lavish campaigning. And if three-quarters of a miilion was obtained from other sources for her nomination, she has made an effec- tive equal rights claim to the old Biblical promise that “whosoever hath, to him shall be given.” Baby Bonuses (Minneapolis Journal) ‘When Dr. Corrado Gini, lecturing at the University of Minnesota on Italy’s handling of social and economic problems, declared that country could stand a popula- tion increase of ten million, he touched on a matter that, figures in the relations between Italy and France—their relations, indeed, at the London naval conference. For the French view Italy's population as a bulging one. That would not be so important to France—even though Italy lacks colonies while France does not—if the birth rates of the two countries were on a parity. But they are not. The populations are practically equal; each is about forty millions. Italy, however, has a vigor- ous policy as to birth rate; Mussolini is looking to that. He has engineered a bonus for births and special privi- leges for large families, and there is also a tax on bache- lors. Italy's birth rate, though it has declined from 39.3 a thousand in 1876 to a present rate of 25.1, is far above that of France, which is 17.8. And Italy's rate is increas- ing under Mussolint’s policy. Moreover, French deaths exceed births in number. Still more to the point, three millions of France's forty millions are foreigners, and half of these are exiled Italians. And ten per cent of last year's births in France were to foreign parents. On the other side of France is Germany, with a birth inerease like that of sly, ae & population of sixty-two millions, increasing by 3650, ® year. France, then, is without a birth rate policy; has a falling birth rate; has a high infant mortality rate, which is increasing; has more deaths than births; and is worried. And across the Alps lies Italy, successfully encouraging an increased birth rate and truculent to- ward other countries.

Substitute: ‘—the people proclaimed their right to defend happiness through self-government.’ Eleven words, 50 per cent saved there. Now: that he pledge himself to leave Minnesota and go to North Dakota for the remainder of his days. Chappell complied with the stipulation of the parole board, else he would not now be awaiting application of a sentence to state prison here. It so happens that Chappell was not a native of North Dakota nor had he ever become a resident or citizen here. His record as kept by the Minnesota penal au- thorities shows he had been busy for years in Minnesota breaking the laws and serving time in the St. Cloud reformatory and Stillwater penitentiary. By what effrontery and moral turpitude did the parole board of Minnesota arrive at the action it took in parol- ing this habitual and dangerous criminal on the basis of banishing him to this state? To make matters worse, Chappell’s record contains Rotation of a burglary in which a woman was robbed “In 1787, assembled in convention, they made a char- Perpetual union ter of of free people of sovereign states—.’ “Cut ‘assembled in convention.” “Substitute: tablishing Powers—under an independent president.’ “Cut ‘independent.’ “Congress and court charged to provide the security Dates citizens in their enjoyment of liberty, equality and justice.” “Cut ‘charged.’ Cut ‘the’ after ‘provide.’ “Thus far Mr. Coolidge has used seventy-six words.

The majority of people use far more starch than their bodies re- quire. A small amount of starch can be converted by the body:into a form of sugar which it can use in perform- ing work and keeping warm, but an excess produces fermentation, stom- ach acidity, biliousness, and leads to such diseases as tonsillitis, stomach trouble, skin eruptions and liver dis- orders. It is not necessary for us to eat starch, as all of the elements which it contains can be found in the fruit better results with sick people by eliminating starch from the diet until they regain their health. Starch may be used in moderate amounts by healthy people providing they will take the pains of properly masticat- ing it so that the saliva has an op- Portunity to thoroughly mix with the starch before the latter enters the stomach. - i Starches should never be used at the same meal with acid foods and seldom with proteins. The use of acids with the starches seems to pre- vent the thorough digestion of them, and excess fermentation is usually the result. Starches include all of the cereal Products, bananas, peas, dried beans, tapioca, sago, potatoes and most of ‘When you do use starches it is good to use only one kind at a meal, and this should be combined with only the cooked and raw non-starchy vegetables. No fruits of any kind, not even tomatoes, should be used with a starchy meal. When starch is used with tomatoes and meat, as this mix- ture passes out of the stomach, both the meat and tomatoes stimulate the flow of gastric juice which has no digestive element in it that can in any way convert the starch. On the other hand, the excess of the gastric juice is mixed with the starch and makes it less Mable to digest in the intestines where the principal change in starch takes place. An exception to the starch rule is wholewheat muf- fins, which may be used in small amounts with a protein meal by those in good health. Another exception is starches which have been thoroughly toasted, or dextrinized, making them less liable to ferment and, therefore, may be eaten in small quantities with any other food. Some foods, such as navy beans, are such a bad mixture of starch and protein in themselves that excess fer- are eaten. Those with strong diges- tive power will be able to withstand the effects of such a mixture for a long time, but it is bound to react upon them eventually and finally Profuce serious consequences. The best way, then, is to use only one kind of starchy food at a time and use it in combination with the differ- ent non-starchy vegetables, both m the cooked and raw form.
