Logan Payne Co. CHICAGO NEW YORK BOSTON ———— | A Timely Action | It was a timely and important action which the As-| sociation of Commerce took Saturday in appointing a} committee to represent Bismarck in an effort to keep) Fort Lincoln occupied by U. 8. army regulars. Members of ihis group wil! canvass the situation, mar 1 shal the arguments against abandonment of the loc! post as planned by high military officials, and take such! other steps as may be proper and effective to have the scheme changed, Every Bismarck citizen will wish the| committee success in its efforts and the group may be) sure that it has the full backing of the community which it is representing. | ‘The original reason for deciding on the abandonment | of Fort Lincoln, according to information received here, | was that army chiefs though they could reduce expenses} by grouping the enlisted forces in larger units. Perhaps/ they can, but it seems hardly probable that the saving | effected by taking the men away from Fort Lincoln} would save in an entire year the cost of taking them! away. | Now, however, reports received by the local commit- tee indicate that other reasons are being advanced and that the war department is lamenting the impossibility) of properly training men in small units such as that} stationed here. Without attempting to tell the army heads their own business, the average man will regard this theory as an excuse rather than a reason. Enlisted men are drilled by squads, platoons and companies, not by regiments. The men in the ranks go where their of-) ficers direct them and otherwise do as they are told. "The officers need to know something of regimental drill| but the non-commissioned men and privates can be} wholly ignorant on this score and still be first-class fight- | ing men. If the war department Is thinking seriously of national | defense, rather than of political maneuvering or a desire! to satisfy the pride of a few generals who would like to have a large number of men under their eyes, it might be remembered that the really important cog in any army machine is the individual man. If the war depart- ment contends that men cannot be trained on North| Dakota's prairies as well as-anywhere else in the world,! we shall reserve the right to violently disagree with them. | In fact, there may be several good reasons why they| can be trained better here. No other post in the country! is situated where weather conditions are similar to) those here. Uncle Sam's fighting men should have some} experience with life in the more northerly reaches of | the temperate zone—and there is no place where they can | in installment sales operations. own words: stood up under the strain of depression in remarkable fashion, far better than many other supposedly more substantial factors in the business mechanism.” No Juries in Italy taken for granted in the United States and Great Bri- tain, are being totally eliminated from the daily life of Italy. The latest edict issued by Signor Rocco, minister of justice, has abolished the jury system. In criminal cases, Signor Rocco has invented a new form of court. He says he does not want to rely entirely upon regular judges, because it is necessary that the sen- tence inflicted shall reflect the sentiments aroused by the crime in the public mind. Henceforth in such cases there will be a mixed bench, composed of seven judges, Two of these will be regular magistrates. The other five will be “assessors.” They will be selected from the body of the citizenry. Besides possessing the qualifica- tions of education and property, they must be of good moral and political behavior—which, of course, means they must be good Fascists. From those citizens inscribed in the register as eligible to be “assessors,” nine will be drawn by lot for every trial. The first five will actually serve as lay judges, the others being retained as substitutes, in case of need. Signor Rocco foresees that these citizens will be as willing, con- scientious and useful as the former jurors proved un- willing, careless and harmful. It may work in Fascist Italy, just as so many other things have done, because of the iron hand back of them, But it is totally contrary to the American idea of justice, fair play and a fighting chance to get a square deal from one's peers. The West Is Growing ‘The first volume of the 1930 census, just issued by the Census Bureau records the fact that the sparsely settled states in the western half of the country grew faster in population than the eastern half in the last ten years. The 22 states west of the Mississippi had a gain in population of 18 per cent, while the eastern states gained only 15.2 per cent. The states west of the Mississippi river now contain 30.4 per cent of the total population. The percentage of total increase for the whole coun- try 1920-1930 was 16.1 per cent. The 1920 census showed a 14.9 per cent increase while the increase from 1900 to 1910 was 21 per cent. A total of 68,954,823 persons, or 56.2 per cent of the population, now live in the cities, according to the new census volume. The rural population is accordingly 43.8 per cent, or a total of 53,820,223, This is a decrease from 8.6 per cent, which was the percentage of rural popula- tion in 1920. Uncle Sam Gets the Money ‘The thirteen nations owing this country a grand total of $11,608,742,000 in war debts will make their semi- annual payments June 15, and the remittances will all be in cash, it has been announced by the U. S. treasury department. The amount involved in the June payment fis $115,000,000, of which $70,000,000 represents interest. The payments will be made by Belgium, Czecho-Slovakia, Esthonia, Finland, France, Great Britain, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Rumania, and Yugoslavia, It is not publicly known what each debtor nation |will pay the United States next month, but the amount each paid last June was as follows: Belgium, $3,450,000 in principal and $1,375,000 in interest; Czecho-Slovakia, $1,500,000 in principal; Esthonia, $150,000 in interest; Finland, $129,885 in interest; France, $35,000,000 in prin- \ cipal; Great Britain, $66,390,000 in interest; Hungary, $28,- 804 in interest; Italy, $5,000,000 in principal; Latvia, $50,- 000 in interest; Lithuania, $36,467 in principal and $94,075 in interest; Poland, $3,137,465 in interest; Rumania $600,- 000 in principal and Yugoslavia $200,000 in principal. —___—_- An Oklahoma man has started to walk around the world backwards.

The cost of maintaining the men here is little, if any, grea‘ than the cost of maintaining them elsewhere. tary considerations which possibly may be advanced to support a change and bosh and the economy shibboleth seems to be mainly‘a subterfuge. ‘The whole business smacks strongly of politics. Per- haps, by reapportioning the various army units, it may be possible for persons who need them to make new po- litical friends. This has happened before and may hap- pen again, so it will be only the part of common sense for the Association of Commerce to advise the adminis- tration that there are votes in North Dakota also. This is a strongly Republican state and the president may expect a good showing here in the 1932 election, although it is by no means certain that he will carry North Da- kota. But, whatever his chances, he will not improve them; any by moving the troops from Fort Lincoln. When this} demonstration of Hoover economy is presented to the people of North Dakota along with the exhibition of “Hoover prosperity” now current, the result may be to leave a sour taste in the mouths and a question in the minds of many citizens, Installment Buying Of all the subjects that have held a prominent place in public discussion during the recent period of depres- sion, none has had a bigger run of talk on a smaller amount of information than installment buying. The subject has been grossly misunderstood and misrep- resented, according to Dr. Julius Klein, assistant secre- tary of commerce. Dr. Klein, who has all the facts at hand and has mada @ thorough study of the subject, declares that install- ment purchases comprise only 12 per cent of the vast total of more than $50,000,000,000 spent annually by the American public. He says that “even if the entire in- stallment structure were, through some incredible calam- ity to be entirely obliterated, it would have no material reaction upon the 88 per cent of our entire buying which) <2) ‘they were necessarily bad ones, but merely that Mr. 4s handled through cash payments and open credit accounts.” Numerous critics of installment buying have declared ‘that the plan has contributed to the business depression Capitalism is that economic arrangement of society in which the ownership and control of the means of production are vested in the hands of a minority of the citizens who form the body politic. A proletarian is a citizen enjoying political freedom |but being dispossessed of the means of production, not ‘The mili-| exercising any control over any “useful amount” of such means. A “useful amount” of the means of production means a sufficiency of these means, as will, by reason of their productive capacity and one’s labor, guarantee an in- dividual and his family a decent livelihood, plus a sur- plus to tide the family over financial and industrial crises. Mr. Lewis and Mr. Babbitt (Minneapolis Tribune) ‘The longer Sinclair Lewis lives, the stronger the sus- picion grows that he is made of the same frail clay of which he fashioned Gopher Prairie folks and Zenith City's Babbitts. For Mr. Lewis to offer his Nobel medal smacks shockingly of what that outrageous fellow, George F. Babbitt, might have done under similar circumstances; childish act. for civic service or for shrewd business practice, but if he had, we are fairly certain that Sinclair Lewis eventually have had him arrange for its display, with @ crass exhibitionist pride of achievement, in some show window. That Mr. Lewis, who could be so contemptuous of the Babbitt ego, should have wanted to see his Nobel medal exhibited in the Yale library is not surprising. ‘The truth of the matter is that Mr. Lewis is contemp- tuous of one kind of success, which is the kind he does not happen to be seeking, and is extremely well pleased with another kind of success, which happens to be the kind that Mr. Babbitt was not. There is essential dif- ference between the immense satisfaction which Sinclair Lewis obviously took in winning the Nobel award and the immense satisfaction that George F. Babbitt took in some successful business coup; and when Mr. Lewis, who go-gets in the field of literature, professes not to un- derstand the Babbitt passion for success, he is simply a poseur. ‘The emotions which Mr. Lewis experienced over win- ning the $46,000 Nobel award, and the emotions which led him to offer his Nobel medal to Yale were Main Street emotions and Babbitt emotions. That is not to Lewis is necessarily human. The man, we are even dis- seems the $46,000 to Yale and keep the medal.

MORRIS FISBEIN Editor, Journal of the American Med- ical Association, and of Hy- geia, the Health Magazine In 1760, the statistics indicated that about 7 per cent of each generation of mankind was being killed by small- pox, In some epidemics as many as ‘33 per cent of the persons affected passed away. In one Scotch town 161 out of every 1000 children born alive died of small- pox, and there was an epidemic every four or five years. In an epidemic that took place in Boston in 1752, when there was a population of 15,- 731, 1843 people left town; 6035 had had smallpox previously and re- covered, and all of the remainder of the population, except 174, had the disease. These figures are extremely striking in view of the relative free- dom from smallpox of the vast ma- jority of our people today. It seems reasonable to believe that proper vaccination of all of the people and proper isolation and control of every case of smallpox would result in stamping out this disease entirely. Unfortunately there are still people who refuse to be vaccinated and there are still people who devote the larg- est part of their lives trying to pre- vent other people from being vacci- nated. Vaccination against smallpox 1s merely the means of giving the per- son the kind of immunity from dis- ease that results from a previous at- tack without causing him to undergo all of the tribulations of the disease Daily Health Service Vaccination Is Safest Method of Stamping Out Smallpox and the pockmarking of his face as- sociated with it. of smallpox on his face, but today the unusual person is the one who carries such scars. Smallpox seems to the average man to be merely a disease of the arin with a severe eruption. It is, how- ever, a disease with fever, aches and pains, and not infrequently with se- vere hemorrhages which may cause death. The figures of the United States Public Health Service indicate that about 30,000 people per year develop smallpox in our country. Due to the increased scientific care given tosuch people, there are only a few hundred deaths from these cases. However, diseases change in their virulence and there are severe outbreaks and from time to time in which as many as 20 per cent of those who are not vac- cinated and who get the disease die as a result of the attack. Because of the present relative in- frequency of smallpox and because of modern methods of scientific control, there are some who think that vacci- nation might well be abandoned. As long as the disease is among us, how- ever, the way of safety is vaccination. A disregard of this measure would re- sult in gradual increase in the num- ber of cases, an increase in virulence, and numerous fatalities. Perhaps the time \7ill come when the whole world will be sufficiently intelligent to take the necessary steps to stamp out smallpox completely but that time is not yet. TODAY IS THE- SPEECH PRAISING NAVY On May 25, 1917, Prime Minister David Lloyd George, in the course of @ speech in the house of commons, referred to the work of the United States navy. He said in part: “We owe a very considerable debt of gratitude to the great American people for the ‘effective assistance they have rendered and the crait they have placed at our disposal. Now that the American nation is in the war it is easier to make arrange- ments for the protection of our mer- cantile marine than it was before.” The ..merican destroyers were as- signed to work hand in hand with the British squadrons. | They took turns with the British boats in all routine work of patrol and cgnvoy. The American boats, though not as experienced as the English boats with which they cooperated, had a high average of results in submarines sighted, observations made and of wireless warnings broadcast. if BARBS j Modern mesasure: Two pints make one cavort, * * * Men who get half time jobs believe that a half loaf is better than a loaf entirely. * * * As far as the iceman is concerned, the more often he gets the cold shoulder the better. * *e ® Some girls go out for track events; others run up charge accounts. = * * | Rectangular dinner plates are now in vogue say tableware stylists, Pos- sibly to give the appearance of a square meal. xe OR No, Dorothy, a young dramatist is not necessarily a playboy.

And it’s also like this: Just a month or so ago, a certain novelty play was announced for Broadway production. It was titled “Two's Company,” and there were ex- actly two people in the company. Once before a two-character play had een attempted, but despite the repu- tation of the leading players, it strug- gled to slow death, Since that time there has been a sort of curiosity about the possibilities of a two-person drama. At any rate, a couple of days be- fore “Two's Company” was scheduled to open, announcement was made that its curtain would not rise. The Flay had been called off. And up and down the “big street” went all sorts of Tumors. It was whispered that there had been heart interest off stage, and all that sort of thing; that there had been jealousies. Very well—the author of the play was one John Patten Russell; the leading woman was Ann Davis and the producer was to have been one Howard Schnebbe. Schnebbe post- Poned the opening once and then wrote to the Actors’ Equity that he had thrown up his hands, He just couldn’t get the production under way. On the night of the final dress rehearsal, he reported, Miss Davis didn’t know her lines. Less than one month after the play was to have opened, the playwright and the leading woman appeared in a small suburb of New York and took ne a wedding license, jo wonder the actress had seemed “impossible” to the producer. The Poor child was in love with the au- thor! Which, in itself, might be an idea for a three-character play. z But you never can tell just what tricks romance will play either on Stage, or at the box office. For years, both films and theaters lave covered up, insofar as possible, the married states of many of the players. The theory was that greater romantic appeal attached to the un- married than to the married. David Belasco, for instance, was re- Ported to have urged some of his most, charming stars not to mix wedlock hee @ stage career. ‘ery well—not so many weeks ago, Helen Gahagan, one of Belasco’s moet charming leading ladies, and his new- est, married the leading man in the Production of “Tonight or Never.” No one knows for sure just how the dean of the theater took this arrangement, but outwardly he made his best “bless you my children” gestures. But—it so happens that “Tonight or Never” had been running along to a very decent sort of box office busi- ness. And after the wedding an- nouncement was made and the news- Fapers printed pieces about the pret- ty romance—the lines began to gather at the box office. Business soon reached capacity. All the curious ones came out to get a personal view of the romantic new- ly-weds. Persons who had seen the play be- fore—particularly women—returned to see if the love story would make any difference in the acting on stage. Chatterers recalled how they had “thought they made love on the stage just a wee bit realistically.” And so don’t be surprised if you find producers trying to arrange ren- dezvous between the leading players, <f and when unmarried.
