Logan Payne CHICAGO * NEW ForK BOSTON We Get a Chuckle North Dakotans will be pardoned for chuckling a little and expanding their chests when they read @ newspaper headline published Friday. It said “Ontario is covered by heavy snowfall” and the story told how many parts of that Canadian province were covered by @ white blanket which in some places reached a depth of 14 inches, The chuckle might well originate in the fact that the folks “back east” have # habit of sympathizing with North Dakotans on the fact that we have such “terrible weather.” 'The chest expansion might come from the knowledge which every North Dakotan has that this is the best all-year climate in America if not in the world, Earlier in the fall, The Tribune published a picture of street cars stalled during an early season snowstorm in Buffalo, N. Y. At the time North Dakota, as now, was enjoying fine, crisp weather of the kind common to this state. Some enthusiasts have undertaken the job of correcting All rights of republication of all other matter herein are question fhat arises is, “What is the prohibition unit going to do with the information it has collected?” One suggestion might be that the unit simply make public the names of the offending senators. It might give us some useful information about some of our alleged statesmen. For a long time Washington has been full of wild yarns about the vast number of senators who buy booze. Publishing this list of names would at least enable us to see just how much there is to these rumors. The Passing of a Grudge Most hatreds do not last very long. National feeling has @ way of softening as the years pass. A collective grudge is a hard thing to keep alive. The other day the Spanish General Valeriano Weyler died—and got, on an average, a paragraph or two of type in most American newspapers. Yet it was only a generation ago that Weyler was the object of more American hatred than any other man alive. 4 ‘Weyler was the officer Spain sent to Cuba to curb the insurrection of the ’90's. His inhuman methods of treating the civilian population had a great deal to do where a declaration of war could have popular support. But now, when he dies, the old hatred is dead. It takes ® more than ordinarily bitter grudge to-last 30 years, Leading the Colleges Professors Donald B. Prentice and B. W. Kunkel of Lafayette college recently completed a study of the 29,000 names listed in the current “Who's Who,” to see how the country’s colleges rank in the production of in- tellectual leaders. Classifying the 16,433 college graduates in the book ac- cording to their colleges or universities, the professors the eastern impression of the North Dakota climate but found that Harvard led all the rest with 1,374.

Wild-west fiction needed tremen- cous climatic disturbances as settings for truly epic deeds and so the original erroneous story of North Dakota’s weather was broadcast. ‘We, who live here and know better, know that the idea most persons in this country have regarding our climate is incorrect.

If the charges are sustained the cooperatives are liable to have the entire market to themselves, since the licenses of the independent dealers could be revoked by the department of agriculture. If the charges are proved to be true, it will be addi- tional evidence that plans of the federal farm board have met with considerable opposition from business which is affected by its actions. In the past, individual farmers or groups of farmers have complained about marketing conditions and have Just what this proves is not quite clear, nor do the investigators themselves attempt to draw any definite conclusion about it. However, it is at least a new way to classify colleges, and it represents an interesting study. i Memory of Tragedy There is a reminiscence of tragedy in the notifications lookout for periscopes in that region during the next four weeks, as the new fleet submarine V-5 will be running speed trials there. It was in that area that the submarine S-4 was going it down. The whole nation remembers the horror of that tragedy; and for the navy, it is one of those things that can never be forgotten. Hence the present warn- ings. It is necessary to give the V-5 her trials, and the Provincetown area is a good place to do it; but the navy is taking no chances on a repetition of the S-4 catastrophe. A girl in Michigan dies after hiccoughing for a year.

They Didn’t Go to War Ina recent article in the Review of Reviews about Adolf Hitler, the German disturber, there is the follow- ing significant statement: “But it is youth that idolizes Hitler. The young people, who did not fight in the war, voted five million strong tor their hero.” . Considering the fact that Hitler stands for a program that probably would land Germany, and the rest of Europe, in a brand-new war, there is a good deal to oan think about in that remark. It points to a fact that we generally overlook, to wit: a new generation, which knows the World war only by hearsay, is beginning to come on . the scene, in Germany and everywhere else. ‘When Armistice Day came in 1918 the human race, " eollectively and individually, had hed all the war it wanted. That mood, naturally enough, lingered for a good many years. In spite of international fear, jeal-| ‘pusy and suspicion, the movement toward an enduring peace has at least had more lip service during the last| ' dosen fears than ever before. But meanwhile all of us have been growing older, and ® new generation is putting in its appearance, and it does not share the current disillusionment about war. Of course, the war-time generation has done what it could to put this new generation wise. Such books as “All Quiet on the Western Front,” such plays as “What Price Glory?” and solemn magazine articles, editorials and essays without number have pointed out that war \s dirty, bloody, cruel and inhuman; and we have pretty. largely taken it for granted thet youth will imbibe our own feeling about it and will abhor war as it abhors| the the plague. But Herr Hitler, in Germany, is proving to us that it| inspectors from Kansas City, San Francisco, St. Louis, doesn’t work out that way; and we might well profit by this object-lésson, ‘Youth, apparently, is not to be scared. There is a cur- Tent story about a high school lad who went to see the movie, “All Quiet”—a harrowing picture of war’s horrors, if ever there was one—and emerged to remark, wistfully, “Gee, I'd like to. get into a war like that some day.” ‘Youth hears these stories of carnage and pain and heart- break and gets that overtone which will creep into such things in spite of the best we can do—that tragic, lying note as of s distant bugle, promising a test for a young fellow’s manhood and a fling at high and gaudy romance. The peace of the world is still unbroken, chiefly be- cause the direction of affairs is still in the hands of peo- ple who-remember the World war. But a new generation ‘will crowd those people out, one of these days—and then what? Obviously, if peace is,to endure, we of today ‘We cannot must take some definite steps to insure it. rely, as we have relied, on @ vague feeling of disillusion. ment. That feeling will not last much longer, f The Election (Grand Forks Herald) There were few surprises in the election Tuesday as far as North Dakota was concerned, but in some other states the upsets apparently have exceeded even the confident predictions of Democratic leaders. While it cannot be said at this writing just what will be the complexion of the United States congress, definite gains have been made by the Democrats that will only serve to increase the difficulties under which President Hoover will have to work. The result is a natural thing and was largely expected. With conditions not quite “in the pink,” to use a box- ing expression, the voters naturally looked for someone or some party to blame, and as was to be capected the party in power received the spanks. Just how effec- tive those spanks were remains to be seen. In reelecting Governor Shafer by an overwhelming majority the voters of North Dakota showed, as they had in the June primary, a fine regard for his value to the state. It was simply a reiteration of the June en- dorsement of his administration—an endorsement well ned. In defeating the four-year term amendmeat, as latest returns seem to indicate, the voters apparently refused to accept the argument that less frequent elections would increase the value of an officeholder to the state. Non- partisan league newspapers, particularly, evidenced a fear *! that the amendment would give the politicians license to “thumb their noses at the voters for four yeais, in- stead of two,” as one league paper put it. Not very sound reasoning, but apparently very effective with the all-important voter. j Centralized Policing (Minneapolis Journal) An officer of the law lately shot to death one of the most brutal bandits the west has known iz, many ‘years —Fleagle, one of the gang that murdered four men in the robbery of a bank in Lamar, Colorado. This bandit has been sought for more than a year, and the officers had closed in on him after a relentless chase—an acineve- pool ‘remarkable for its piecing together of meagre WS. When they finally came upon him, the forces of the law comprised many officers, representing a variety of governmental agencies, all of which had been engaged in the pursuit. Among them were representatives of Police departments of Los Angeles, Colorado Springs, and Kansas City; railway special agents, and postoffice Denver, Cleveland, Pueblo, Joplin, and other points. This intensive hunt for an outlaw was coordinated through the postoffice department. Its successful out- come may be,attributed in large degree to federal partic- ipation. That is the kind of pursuit of criminals that never ceases. But its persistence is not the only reason for its efficacy. Federal hunts for criminals are ad- vantaged by the fact that they are carried on by closely coordinated agencies, covering the entire United States. They are unlike state efforts to run down criminals, in that most states do not coordinate their various agencies of law enforcement. Village constables, small town police, county sheriffs and the police of large cities work “on their own” to a large extent. Here in Minnesote they may have the beginnings of coordination through the Bureau of Criminal Apprehen- sion, but these are only beginnings, for the bureau is rudimentary, no matter if its efficient director and his subordinates do furiction up to the limits of their ma- chinery. There is no closely knit organization for law enforcement, in most states, among which is Minnesota, When the states learn the lesson of federal coordina- tion, they will have better means of protection and ap- -| prehension.

According to William von Brinck- en, former German secret service agent, who plays a Prussian officer in the picture, the title of the film is @ colloquial expression designating an agent’s secret number. Letters representing directions on the compass, were in the majority of cases, used to designate the various spies, von Brincken points out. A number was also added to the letter such as N-12 or W-15. In this mai ner the individual operator was im- mediately identified. Von Brincken further explains that if the number is on the right side of the letter, the expression “faces” was used. Therefore as the letters repre- sented directions as North, South, East and West, the code words “Three Faces East,” means E-3, the number of a mysterious and celebrated Ger- wan intelligence officer in the pic- ure. Both Constance Bennett and Eric von Stroheim play the roles of spy in “Three Faces East,” which is adapted for the talking screen from the Anthony Paul Kelly stage play of the same name. Oliver H. P. Garrett wrote the screen play. William Courtenay, Anthony Bush- ell, Crauford Kent, Charlotte Walker, William Holden and others complete the cast. Roy del Ruth directed.

Today Is the ‘Anniversary of MONTANA'S STATEHOOD On Nov, 8, 1889, after a state con- stitution had been framed and state officers elected, Montana was ad- mitted to the Union by proclamation of the president. Joseph K. Toole, a Democrat, was the first governor of Montana. In the first national election in 1892, Montana went Republican, and, except for the years 1896 and 1900, when there was 8 fusion of Demo- crat and Populist elements, the state has been Republican since. Montana suffered for several years from industrial troubles which cen- tered about Butte and other cities where labor was at s standstill for a considerable time. third in size among the states of the Union, Montana has an area of 146,997 square miles, of which 796 miles are under water. The pic- turesque Glacier National Park, in northeastern Montana, has an area used as effectively as galloping “vil- lain-still-pursued-her” events of yore. In “Raffles,” Goldwyn outdid himself in providing a motor car pursuit that has all the characteristics of a pro- festional automobile race. Colman refused to accept a double, even for the rehearsals. When the studio car, an imported Sunbeam, re- fused to be piloted the way Colman wanted it to, he brought out his own Daimler. Samuel Goldwyn is still wondering why theré had to be six rehearsals for the scene. 2 | Chapin School N On Monday, October 27th, we had some exercises in memory of Theodore Roosevelt, that day being his birth- day.
