CHICAGO NEW YORK BOSTON — Another Milestone Old-time residents who return to Bismarck invariably comment on the changed appearance of the city’s busi- ness district and the improvements made in it. To many citizens who have lived here continuously, these changes have come gradually and have -been so much taken for granted that the wonder of the old-tim- ers is necessary to bring to their attention the manner in which the city has improved. Another signpost of Bismarck’s new business suprem- acy is the new building to house the J. C. Penney com- pany store which will be opened tomorrow. It is both a tribute to the city, to a great commercial organization which has faith in the future of Bismarck and to W. Webb, one of Bismarck’s commercial pioneers whose faith in his home town has been unshaken through the years and whose efforts in its behalf are and have been con- spicuous. It was Mr. Webb who built and owns the build- ing. Bismarck welcomes new commercial enterprises and new industries. It is a promise for the city's future that it attracts new and worthwhile business blood, new en- terprise, new capital. But those old-timers who have served their city through the years must needs be placed in the first rank —and typical of these is Mr. Webb. He is typical of the | Ci men to whom the Bismarck of today owes its superiority over the Bismarck of yesterday and who will help the Bismarck of tomorrow to outshine the Bismarck of to- day. His construction of the new Penncy building is another in a long succession of achievements, all of which have been reflected in Bismarek's commercial “advance- ment. So it is with full appreciation of the value to the com- munity of its old residents that Bismarck, on the occa- sion of the Penney company’s opening of the new build- ing, says “Hail to the new.” A Dictatorship of Stability Germany will be ruled by a dictatorship the next 90 days, but it is not the type of dictatorship in vogue in other European countries. This type of digtatorship is provided for in the constitution of the German republic, It will not be greatly different, in fact, from President Hoover administering the government of the United States between sessions of congress, for the reason that it is stipulated in the German constitution. ‘The dictatorship grows out of the refusal of the reich- stag to stand by Chancellor Bruening’s decree establish- ing the finance ministry’s new tax program. The chan- cellor lost, 236 to 221. In parliamentary government such a defeat usually is the signal for the ministry to step out and for the country to go to the polls and test the matter out by the ballot. Tge chancellor, with the assent of the aged President von Hindenburg, has dismissed the reich- stag and an election for a new one will be held Septem- ber 14. ‘That is as near as the situation approaches the loss of @ vote of corfidence in ordinary European procedure. ‘The attitude of the reichstag takes on a sinister aspect, however, with Germany obligated internationally by its reparations engagements. The situation thereupon is interpreted as a menace to the existence of the new re- Public and that status is pronounced on it by president and chancellor, as the German constitution provides. In view of the dependability of the aged field marshal, the dictatorship would seem about the safest step that could be taken toward maintaining stability. There will be no such high-handed pomposity as Mussolini inflicts on Italy, no such ruthlessness as the communist com- mittee headed by Joseph Stalin subjects soviet Russia to, no such military autocracy as that by which the late Primo De Reviera controlled Spain for several years. Germany thus repeats the experience of France after the Franco-Prussian war. For years that republic was subject to alarms and political flip-flops that came near restoring the empire of the Bonapartes or the kingdom of the Orleanists and Bourbons. It will be recalled that France also was ruled by a field marshal in those days of the mid-70's—McMahon, The French republic survived all those crises and the swashbucklerism of the Boulanger days, of the 80's also. The danger to France was far more menacing than the present crisis is to Germany, and the world will hardly have any uneasy moments in the next 90 days, after a new reichstag has been elected to take office and restore serenity to the troubled reich. Weird Ideas on Nation’s Trend One of the peculiar things about modern America is that so many intelligent and thoughtful people do not in the least seem able to understand it. Pick up any magazine that is devoted to something higher than stereotyped fiction and. cut-from-a-pattern success stories, and you find that the prevailing note, in any article that tries to assay the current era, is one of dark foreboding or downright despair. That is not entirely surprising. There are tendencies \n modern American life that are ominous enough, in all truth. But in many cases the gloomy prophets seem to have a complete misconception of our entire industrial civilization. A writer in a recent issue of the New Republic, for example, remarks that we owe to Henry Ford “the dis- covery that our national welfare depends upon attain- ing the maximum rate of destruction of our national resources.” ‘hen, after asserting that Ford's theory calls on us to waste things we possess as fast as possible, he comes to the question of world peace and makes this amazing statment: “For long we have worried about war, driven by a pre- industrial feeling that war is the enemy of mankind. But by the theory of the economic value of waste we find that war is the basis of culture. War is our great eco- nomic safety valve. For if waste lets up, if people simply won't throw out things fast enough to create new nerds in keeping with the increased output under improved metheds of manufacture, we always have récourse to ‘the still more thoroughgoing waste of war. _ An intelli- NES Sa et OIE NT aA ATED Feh P H. | Editorial Comment | gently managed war can leave whole nations to be re- built, thus providing work at peak productivity for mil- lions of the surviving population.” This sample of the reaction of our intellectuals to the new trend in human society fills one with a sort of stupefied despair. For we have here not only a complete misunderstanding of the doctrine of modern industry, as exemplified by Henry Ford; we have also a ludicrous misconception of industry's attitude toward the tragedy of war. We have a right to expect something better than this. The critics of this age of industrialism ought, at least, to set themselves straight on its fundamentals. The facile optimism of the success magazines is not born of any more shoddy thinking than the equally facile pessimism of some of our intellectuals. A tremendous change is coming ugon society these days. It is coming whether we like it or not. No amount of disturbed wailing will halt it. From our intellectual classes we should be getting—not blind outbursts of pee- vish alarm, but a genuine attempt to understand what is happening and how we can get the most out of it. Weird remarks like the ones quoted above do no one any good. A Dangerous Attitude The city of Detroit has had ten gang murders in nine days. All of them were of ‘the regular Chicago pattern. But Detroit's police commissioner is not only unworried; he remarks that since all of the people being killed are highly undesirable citizens the police will not take any especial steps to interfere. If Detroit wants to follow Chicago's example, no one can find any fault with this attitude; but if it does not, jit ought to take its police commissioner aside and cx- plain to him that he is making a terrible mistake. Gang killings thrive on just such an attitude. The Bangsters do not wipe each other out—unfortunately. In- stead, their private wars simply entrench one faction or janother more deeply in a city’s life. Finally, when their boldness has become unbearable, Detroit may find itself in Chicago's position—utterly unable to regain the control over the underworld which it placidly gave upa few years before. Red Tape at Its Worst (Minneapolis Journal) Because it took three years of hard work and a special act of congress to gain entry into the United States for the German wife of an American World War veteran, @ new demand has arisen that the ban on epplicants guilty of moral turpitude be removed from our immigration laws, It seems that the bride in question had, as a child, stolen food to avert starvation. Therefore, American law barred her as an undesirable. Of course, barring this young woman was ridiculous, just as ridiculous as was the barring of the Countess of ‘athcart some years ago, because she had been named in @ divorce case. But doing away with the bar against immigrants guilty of moral turpitude is not the proper remedy. Such a revision of the law would leave the door open for every professional European criminal who could get himself into a quota. What is really needed is common sense in the im- migration service. That particular federal agency surely should be able to distinguish between real goats and technical goats, and let the technical goats in, alony with the sheep. ae dees Gay Spender Nears ‘Finish’ (Kansas City Star) Another weary boulevard butterfly has closed tired wings, end is prepared to die. Marquis Boni de Castel- lane, playboy in a wondering, laughing, often condemn- ing world, lies in a bed, in Paris, stricken with creeping Paralysis. Butterfly to the end, he has caused himself to be dressed in formal clothes and across his chest has Pinned the medals of an ancient family and a busy past. ‘Once ‘the world’s gréat spender, today there is naught that all the wealth of the world‘can buy him. He waits in a little flat for the final closing of the hands of death, musing a little cynically, a little regretfully. In two years he spent a half million dollars and from the burning of that great sum in frivolities naught remains but a pink marble palace on Boulevard Foch, as pretty and unusual and ornamental and smart as he himself had been—and as useless in a world of realities. He married Anna Gould in 1895 and the social worlds of America and Europe shook with excitement while thou- sands of columns of printed matter brought the news and i the opinion of countless editors to every firesde. In the next five years Count Boni—as he was then—and his wife tossed $7,000,000 to the winds. Six years after this the two were divorced, Anna eventually marrying Boni’s cousin, Duke de Talleyrand. , It is one thing to spend millions from the Gould treas- ure chest and another to spend half a million from his own pocket—put there by the Goulds at the time of the marriage. Broke, he withdrew for a space from society and then, dapper and waxed and corseted and scented and mincing, he appearcd once more and it was whis- pered he was a salesman for an automobile company, a dealer in antiques and a sort of super-guide for newly rich Americans through the back wash of Paris society, @ group sprinkled equally with titles and scandals. Fate or nature took toll, however, of the life he lived and five years ago paralysis began its stealthy creeping. Once his former wife came to see him. Very few others, for the friends who loved to watch gold’s spending cared little for life's spending and he was left alone with a servant or two. His ancient family, his one-time wealth, gave him no pull. He was pointed at by guides when he drove in the Bois for Cook tourists to stare at and backwoods. minis- ters held him up from time to time as a “horrible exam- ple” and that was his fame when his illness took im to bed. The pretty pink palace, dust haunted and empty, as | empty as his life is today, stands deserted, even as he has been deserted. The playboy will play no more. Russia as Customer (New York Times) Official and business circles in Washington are in- clined to see the operation of other than purely commer- cial factors in the sharp decline of Soviet purchases in the United States during the last few months. In May our sales amounted to slightly more than $3,000,000, as against $12,500,000 in January, and the figures for June | are expected to show a further slump. The falling off; in our exports to Russia, coupled with a notable rise in| English exports, would be explained in part as a form of diplomatic negotiation practiced by the Soviet govern- | ment ever since it resumed contact with the outside world. Foreign trade being a monopoly in the hands of the Soviet government, purchases abroad can within a wide range be manipulated in accordance with Soviet foreign policy of the particular moment. Trade can be diverted from an unfriendly country, as Great Britain would be after the rupture of diplomatic relations sev- eral years ago, and swung to the United States or Ger- many. It can be swung back to England when she has | resumed diplomatic relations with Russia and is discuss- ing a business treaty, as is now being done. To a con- siderable degree the fluctuations in the amount of busi- ness done with Russia by the United States, Great Brit- ain and Germany have been the result of this very natural policy practiced in Moscow of rewarding friends and punishing enemies. Credit conditions are a second factor mentioned in Washington. Last year American companies are re- ported to have made contracts on the basis of 10 per cent cash, They are now said to be asking 75 per cent, with the Soviet government willing to consider 50 per cent. If this is the reflection of a feeling of growing uncer- tainty with regard to Russian conditions, it would seem to ba in sharp contradiction with the reports on Rus- | sia’s progress now being laid before the conference of tne Russian Communist party, et which Stalin is reported to be carrying everything before him. For the time being the simpler explanation of the slump in our sales to Rus- sia would be, in part at least, the natural reaction from a sharp increase of sales of the last two years. Our ex- ports to Russia were in the Soviet fiscal year in 1927-28 about 90 million dollars, in 1928-29 about 110 million=, and for the first half of 1929-30, up to March 31 last, very nearly 100 millions. Particularly heavy have been the purchases of machinery, both industrial and agricultural, which amounted to nearly 57 million dollars in the six months up to March 31. Conceivably, such large buy- ings may have come close to using up Russia's credit. in our markets, and Washington's view would thus be vindicated, 4 ———________—_—_+ | Today Is the | Anniversary of BATTLE OF BULL RUN On July 21, 1861, the first Battle of | Bull Run, the first important battle | of the Civil War, was fought’ near a small stream of this name in north-; east Virginia. « The Federal army, under General| McDowell, and the Confederate army, under Generals Beauregard and Johnston, were both composed of green troops, poorly drilled and sadly lacking in experience. The battle got under way at.10 a. m., when the Federals opened the at- | tack, driving the Confederates before | them until stopped while ascending a slope, by a fighting brigade under T. J. Jackson, who gained the sobriquet “Stonewall” as the result of this con- flict. The Federals gained ground after stubborn attacks until about 3 p. m., when the Confederates launched an attack that drove their foes in con- fusion from the field. The retreat became a rout and finally the Fed- erals fled in wild disorder to Wash- ington, but were not followed, as the 1 Confederates also were disorganized by the flurry of the victory. - About 40,000 men engaged in the fight, the Federals losing 2,600 and the Confederates 2,000.

She had & purpose, and, in ber .dramatic way, she dressed for it. She put on her oldest clothes. She paid no attention to her face, which was, as usual, violently made up, like ~ caricature. She was wrought up to such @ pitch of excitement that when she was shown into Gideon’s great salon she did not recognize it as perhaps the most beautiful room in New York. = It did the millionaire credit that he showed not the slightest sur- prise at her appearance. He asked her to sit down, and she did so, on an old English day bed, with cushion of dull gold. She was pull- ing off ber gloves and then put ting them on again. She was frightfully nervous as she looked into his pale, heavy face. “I wanted to see you first, Mr. Gideon.” she said hurriedly. “I am willing to take this game up, but only if you'll let me keep my- self while I'm learning to dance. 1 can manage that all right. 1 can't live on you. I expect, if this gentle- man really thinks 1 am good, he'll be willing to wait for his fees until I'm ready; so that wouldn't cost anything. I can’t take anything from you while I’m learning. I'd rather give the idea up alto gether.” “Why, of course, Miss Judy,” Gideon answered suavely. “I've been thinking that over myself. I quite understand. You are a most independent young lady; but ff you go on with your work, won't you be too tired?” “Lord, no! 1 can-do anything. I'm as strong as a horse.” “As to Guarvenius, I'm sure be'll jump at you. He is an artist, and how. NCING 59 CORALIE STANT COPYRIGHT _1950 independence, Leave me out of it altogether. Fix it up with Guar venius yourself; but allow me the priviiese, when you are ready, of helping you in whatever way 1 can.” eee UDY was delighted. She was be ginning to warm to the idea. There was adventure in it. This man, who knew so much of the world, was ready to allow her to succeed on her own merits, He did not want to lay ber under any obligations. How ridiculous Bas- tien had been! It was a perfectly genuine business proposition. He knew she was a dancer, and she knew it, too. Guarvenius arrived. e He was a small, dapper man, with a delicate, artistic face, slightly feminine and yet strong. He bad gray hair, growing back in a shock from his broad forehead, a small, high-bridged nose, deep-set, luml- nous, gray eyes, and a really beauti- ful mouth, spoiled by a set of dis- colored teeth—accounted for, no doubt, by the never-absent cigaret. Judy was never at a loss with any man, and the two got on fa- mously. Guarvenius spoke perfect English in a voice with a sad, sympathetic cadence. The lunch was served in & small, severe, dark-paneled room. It was very frugal. There were more flowers on the table than there was food. There was only water to drink. It was a strictly business like function but for the flowers, and there were flowers everywhere, all over the great apartment— heavy-scénted flowers that sent fumes up into Judy’s brain such as Bo wine could ever do. “Now, Miss Judy, you must dance,” said Gideon, when they had finished coffee. “1 will show you the other room—they will have it ready. A friend is coming to play. What would you like him to play?” He led Judy into another great one can actually buy a ham sandwich for less than five dollars. ** * A novelist asserts that an extrava- gant girl usually makes a poor moth- er.

I yawn all dax, although I get plenty of rest. Would this condition be from weakness?” Answer: Yawning is caused from oxygen starvation. If you will take deep breathing exercises each morn- ing and, at first, occasionally through the day, you will supply your lungs with enough oxygen with wihch to satisfy the bodily needs. Pus in the Blood Question: R. M. asks: “Is it possible for pus to enter the blood stream, and what would be the result if it did?” Answer: It is possible for pus to enter the blood stream, but usually the lympathic circulation takes care of pus, which is composed of toxic material along with the dead white cells. Pus in the blood cannot usually travel very far, as the lymphatics save the patient’s life by carrying away the toxins and dead cells and toxins less dangerous. Feeding Baby Question: Mrs. H.
