Logan Payne CHICAGO NEW YORK ‘An Important Observance In common with the rest of the country, Bismarck and North Dakota today observe the birthday anni- versary of Theodore Roosevelt by giving special atten- don to the United States navy, its functions, ite his- ‘ory, and—let us hope—its needs and importance to she country. Most of us, living more than a thousand miles from she sea in any direction, have a rather sketchy idea of our “first line of defense.” Many of our impressions have been received from motion picture shows and stage productions and the result is a composite picture of Co, BOSTON 00] $40 8 week—when that is close to the average income pretty girls, handsome officers in brilliant uniforms and jolly tars whose chief function is to sing while they pretend to work. Those Bismarck and Burleigh county men who have served in the navy know better and we know better, too, if we stop to think a minute. The facts substitute in our mental processes @ hard-working, ever-active branch of the nation’s business for the navy which we conceive after attending a performance of Pinafore. Just as one never misses the water until the well goes dry, so the nation would not miss an effective navy ‘until the need for one was apparent. From John Paul Wones off the coast of Brittany, Perry on Lake Erie and the immortal exploits of that gallant old frigate Con- stitution to Dewey at Manila and Sims in foreign waters during the World war, the history of the American navy is one of the most glorious in the annals of the nation. In many of the nation’s historic naval battles the Americans have been outnumbered and have met a superior weight of guns and armament. They were victorious in the old days of iron men and wooden ships by virtue of superior seamanship and a spirit that would mot say “quit,” no matter how stern the engagement or what the odds. ‘There is no reason to believe that the American spirit and ability of today is less virile or effective than in the past, and yet, it is improbable that the history of ‘American naval achievement would be repeated in a ‘battle in which the odds were so against victory as they were when the Constitution met the Guerriere. Scien- tific instruments, long range guns, ay armamehts and various other developments have pul individual initiative into the background as a factor in winning a battle on the high seas. If we are to count on the American navy successfully defending these shores in the event of war with a powerful foe, we must equip it with the latest and best in guns and armament. To do less is national folly and—in the event of war—would be a death warrant for thousands of gallant men employed in the naval service. And that death warrant would be signed by the indifference and carelessness of the American people as represented by their government. ‘The observance of navy day calls all of these things to mind and causes us to think of what would happen were {we ever to really need a well-manned and effective navy. ‘That is what the observance is intended to do. Curbing the Probers Secrecy surrounding grand jury investigations prior ‘to the finding of a true bill has been rigidly upheld in ‘@ recent decision of the New York supreme court in an/ he ‘action brought by the attorney general of that state to determine whether he could legally turn over the min- utes and records of the jury's deliberations to Governor | ing. Roosevelt. \ ‘The governor in this instance was anxious to anticipat ‘the action of the grand jury by calling a special session ‘of the senate to sit as-a sort of impeachment court to Bemove a general sessions judge of New York City. ‘While the court decision refuses to impugn the mo- tives of the governor of New York in this instance, it concisely refers to the peculiar nature of a grand jury investigation, emphasizing the necessity of the sefeguard of secrecy. Everyone will agree that the court is sound in tts find- {ings and that to rob a grand jury of protection from premature publicity would defeat the ends of justice, the spplication of a rather severe brand of which seems the thief need of a Tammany-ridden New York City. ‘A Question of Incomes ‘The pastor of parishioners of a Chicago church not flong ago amused themselves by entering into a general discussion of the question, “How much income does a Young couple need to get married?” Last year this same church discussed the same ques- tion, and concluded that $50 a week was the minimum. "This year, taking cognizance of hard times, they shaved their estimates, and figured that matrimony could be attempted on as little as $40 a week. Some brave souls even put the figure a trifle lower. ‘Nobody who gets married on $40 a week is going to feel the boredom of extreme wealth; yet if every prospective by rather more than 75 per cent. _ This is a point worth bearing in mind. All too often, when we speak of the “average American,” we are not thinking of the average man at all but of some excep- tionally lucky individual whose income is at least double - the average.~ Mr. fats, his Chase, one of the country’s wisest econom- that fully 90 per cent of American | almost like riches. Beyond any question, the num- ber getting @ lower wage than that is greater than the Hymber getting a higher one. not extremely important. Yet in late years of overestimat- we realized just how things stand. The distribution of such conveniences as auto- & mobiles, washing machines, radios, electric refrigerators and so on are highly encouraging. but it isn't good for u to assume—as we have assumed—that the spectre o want has vanished forever from the average Aierica home, even in times of high prosperity. That assumption, in fact, is probably responsible tc most of our indifference to the fate of workers in back ward industries, our indifference to the steady growu. of that delightful thing called technological unempluy- ment, our indifference to the hopeless struggles of the thousands of unskilled laborers who are buried in the city slums. A few hundred well-intentioned folk agree that a young couple making a start in life must have at least for 90 per cent of the nation’s families! That indicates how sadly we need a better understanding of the exact situation in our country. The Troubles of 1916 The disclosures from the state department at Wash- ington concerning the sharp exchange of notes, in 1916. between our government and the government of Enz. land are extremely interesting. It is somewhat surprising to learn that at one time, due to England’s interfer- ence with American sea-borne commerce, the severance of diplomatic relations was actually a possibility. This being so, one is moved more than ever to marvel at the excessive stupidity of the German government in declaring unrestricted submarine warfare. That step Pushed American troubles with England into the back- ground and brought America into the war against Ger many. If the German government had set itself vo cu. | vate American goodwill, history might have taken 2 much different course. ’ Real Christianity In the state of Ohio there is a religious sect whose members call themselves Amish. They live on tarms and shun the cities. They wear queer, old-fash'oned clothing; the women, long black dresses, the men, long Coats and square hats. They will not use buttons on their | garments. They have no use for such things as radios, | autos, movies, phonographs. Queer? Yes, indeed. But the other day an Amish community heard that there were thousands of men in Cleveland who could not get work and who, in con- Sequence, could not eat. And at once the Amish loaded their wagons with farm produce and trekked all the way to the city, to serve free meals to the jobless. In the book that the Amish, along with many other sects, revere as holy, there is the observation: “By their fruits ye shall know them.” Editorial Comment Editorials printed below show the trend of pg SY re Cee They are gel hed ik ether they agree 0!

By anol- ogy, one administration of some department of gov- ernment does not monopolize progress. Real progress depends upon law, the will and the wants of the peo- Ple.

A new administration is wise enough to accept the real and substantial progressive policies that have been started or established by former administrations.
