ISMARCK TRIBUNE may be an infinite variety. , Before the manufacturers of steel window sash were induced to simplify their lines, they were Producing 43,000 different sizes. This bewildering number has, in the short space of 10 years, been reduced to 2,300} sizes. Even the wholesale reduction seems to have left an oversupply of sizes and further reductions may be expected. Ten years ago those who went shopping for woven wire fencing had 552 sizes and patterns to choose from; but they can now make a more intelligent selection from the present total of 62. Milk bottles have been reduced from 49 varieties to four standard sizes, and one size of cap will fit them all. School blackboards were once offered in 251 sizes, and it will hardly be called a hardship on the customers that they now have only 52 sizes to pick from. The 66 varieties of paving bricks have been cut down. to six sizes, which doubtless means a big saving to the makers and contractors, as well as those who foot the paving bills. One may run through a long list of items such as tin cans, paper bags, jack knives and shipping tags and discover the economies effected by this new phase of industrial betterment. This silent revolution has been singularly free from dictation or government regulation. The manufacturers and others interested have enjoyed complete freedom of action and have made use of the U. 8, Department of commerce solely as a coordinating agency. Herbert Hoover, the engineer-president, who has been called the father of simplified practice, has from the start favored @ hands-off policy as far as the government was con- cerned. In discussing this phase of the subject he utter- ed this significant maxim: “You can’t catch an economic force with a policeman.” Anniversary av uin-| which Roberts, both in retrospect and as an active |citizen, need not be ashamed. jwill join with The Tribune in extending felicitations to Mr. Roberts on the occasion of his silver jubilee as a Other military tacticians, remembering that the na- tion's fighting has been done by the men and officers in) the front line trenches, point out that the men in the! ranks and the junior officers get their best training while! on duty in the smaller posts. There they have added! responsibility and conditions are such that interest in| the military phases of their work is promoted. They do, not go to the general's teas so often but they do get in) more hard licks on their jobs. They make real eo of themselves. From the standpoint of military efficiency, therefore, the argument seems to favor retention of the small posts which the army seeks to abandon and of which Fort| Lincoln is one. When viewed in the light of other available facts it} Beems probable that political considerations have had! considerable weight in suggesting the scheme to aban- don Fort Lincoln and other posts. In Massachusetts the army has a new post which never has been occupied. It becomes a matter of political economy, therefore, to} withdraw troops from Fort Lincoln and similar posts) Sing strong. and place them in this new one. If this method of reasoning is being followed it is up) to the people of North Dakota to teach the war depart-| ment and the administration that they are reckoning} ‘without their host. The people of North Dakota should make it plain that they will “express their resentment at the abandonment of Fort Lincoln in the only way open| to them. That is by voting their disapproval of an ad-/ ministration which would so ignore their rights and their/ interests. It appears now that Mr. Hoover will have rough sailing in his efforts to carry North Dakota in 1932. If he is to get the electoral votes from this state he will need every friend and every vote he can muster, even though North Dakota always has been listed on the political maps as “solidly Republican.” | If the Hoover administration persists in its proposal, to withdraw the troops from Fort Lincoln it will be mak- ing a difficult situation worse for itself. If troops are to be moved from Bismarck and North) Dakota to make friends for the administration in some other section it must be expected that North Dakota citizens will give expression to their resentment. ‘The political argument is one which should have little weight in deciding a matter where either efficiency or economy really is involved, but it should not be ignored when the question under consideration is as essentially Political as this one appears to be. Simplified Practice | One of the notable epochs in the field of industry had {ts beginning in this country 10 years ago, when manu- | facturers were enlisted in a campaign to standardize! their products in an effort to eliminate wasteful factory and sales practices. made such headway that 120 leading industries in this country have adopted the practice with a resultant sav- ing of $250,000,000. The reforms achieved are proving ® great benefit both to manufacturers and consumers. Simplified practice has been described as “that policy ‘by which manufacturers, distributors and users, through voluntary agreement, limit the usually made and sold varieties of any given manufactured article to such con- venient minimum as will-satisfy all normal and reason- fable demands.” ; A few items will suffice to illustrate the new economy that has replaced the wasteful confusion existing before simplified practice got under way. Ten years ago there ‘were 16 different sizes of inch recognized in the lumber {ndustry, varying from half an inch to an inch and a quarter. Now the lumberman’s inch is the standard inch stamped on every ruler and yardstick. ‘Ten years ago American furniture factories were turn- $mg out 78 distinct sizes of bedsteads, which made it al- sost impossible for the makers of bedsprings, mattresses and bedding to fit all the sizes.

New Privilege (New York World-Telegram) This country is now consuming 100,000,000 more gal- lons of wine annually than it did before prohibition, ac- jcording to Hugh E. Fox, secretary of the United States Brewers’ association. We have no figures. But we ask: At how many private dinner parties given this week | by well-to-do New Yorkers is there lack of cocktails, | Wines or other alcoholic beverages? On how many Newport dinner tables this week will no champagne glasses be found? In how many smart country clubs all over the land this week has there been any dearth of “drinks”?

Until the aristocracy is seriously inconvenienced by Privilege is always relished by those whom it distin- guishes in some new way. Prohibition has reserved a new privilege, a new distinc- tion for the rich. Prohibition dare not lay hands on that privilege. It would be fatal to prohibition No More ‘Carelessness’ in Russia (Washington Star) Soviet Russia is bent upon making men perfect, even at the cost of the severest punishment for failure to con- form to standard. An order has just been issued by the supreme court to the officials of all district courts throughout the union that henceforth “carelessness” will be considered a crime and that all offenders must be tried under the criminal statutes, with the penalty ot imprisonment, or exile upon conviction. This means that any workman in a state factory who breaks or spoils any bit of work, or any farmer who causes a loss of mate- rial or the disablement of a machine may be sent to jail or to prison camp. Heretofore when offenders have been tried by the factory courts such offenders have usually been acquitted on the plea of “accident,” whereas now it will not be necessary to prove the intention of workers who have damaged machinery or have set fires, but only that they were careless. The issuance of this edict suggests that there must have been a good deal of sabotage in the shops and on the collective farms on the part of the workers, and that the workers have not been whole-heartedly coopera- ting in the intensive production program of the Soviet government. Reports to that effect have been received Incomptence in the shops, it is stated, has, for example, resulted in the failure of a large number of the tractors that have been manufactured under the “plan.”. Whether the fault has been mechanical inability or intentional damage or poor workmanship, this order now issued, making “careless- ness” a crime, would seem to have been designed to cor- rect the fault. But the question is whether workmen in factories or on the farms can be made efficient and careful by threat of penal reprisal. In fact, this difficulty which the court order is intended to correct lies close to the whole mat- ter of Soviet control. Can men be made uniformly efficient by law? Can the traits of a race be changed by ukase? Is it possible to “dictate” uniformity of conduct and skill? Communism such as that which forms the basis of the Russian organization aims at the reduction of the in- ernistic pointed out, has nothing to do with style, of which there | —————— Telling Him Where to Get Off!

MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor, Journal of the American Medical Association Everyone realizes the attractiveness of a human being who stands well, sits well, and who has in general good posture. It must be borne in mind that the human being developed from some species that walked on all fours and that the attempt to walk and stand on two feet puts strain and stress on Parts of the body that formerly had not had them. Hence, we see today innumerable round-shouldered, stoop- shouldered people with sunken chests, i twisted backs, prominent abdomens and lame hips, The position adopted when sleeping is one of complete relaxation of muscles and ligaments so that the spine is curved. ‘A certain amount of relaxation is desirable, but when walking enough stress must be placed on the muscles and ligaments to in- sure proper support and physical de- velopment. Hence, teachers now try to get children to stand tall, to stretch out, to hold the chest forward, and the shoulder back. As emphasized by Thurman B Rice in_ his recent consideration of this subject in Hygeia, the upright man, the straightforward person can us- ually be trusted, while the slinking, the cringing, and slouching arouse suspicion. The careless, lounging man who shuffles his feet and sneaks around in a hang-dog manner is a It must not be Daily Health Service Vitality Reveals It in His Posture ture is the cause of his inefficiency or the result of it. The two go to- gether with a mutual interchange of forces, Sometimes, indeed not infrequently, bad posture is the result of bad diet or disease. Just exactly as good ad- vice and exercise cannot compensate for the need of eye-glasses in a child whose eyes are not built right, so also cannot advice and exercises compen- sate wholly for defective bones, muscles, joints and ligaments, A competent physician who studies such cases can provide supports or braces that act as a crutch to the weakened tissues in the same way that eyeglasses compensate for ana- tomical changes in the eye. Sometimes the feeding of more cal- cium and phosphorous and the use of viosterol and sunlight will aid de- velopment of weakened tissues. As- sociated with this, proper exercise and practice will induce a suitable posture and an improved appearance. The weakened tissues of children should not be compelled to carry heavy weights for long periods of time, as is the case when a rather weak child attempts to carry eight or 10 books home from school day after day. Physiologists talk about the condition under the term “body- tone.” The average man thinks of tone with the words “vim, vigor and vitality.” The person who has in him drive, impetus, or good, reflects this in his posture, in the way he walks, and indeed in his whole atti- tude toward life. $700,000 a year, according to reports.

The secretary of the treasury had been authorized, under the act of April 24, 1917, to issue bonds to the extent of $5,000,000,000. A war loan organization was creat- ed to care for the first issue scheduled for $2,000.000,000. Twelve Federal Reserve banka were used as central agencies in the 12 districts. Each bank was allotted a quota of the loan. Liberty Loan committees were formed and the treasury made use of every available means of publicity. The first loan was offered to the public on May 14. How well the loan went over is seen in the fact that subseriptions totaling $3,035,226,850 had been received by June 15. ‘Three other loans besides the final Victory Loan were floated by the United States during the World war. The American people subscribed a total of $24,072,257,550 in the five campaigns. The fourth loan was the largest, bringing in some seven thou- sand million dollars.

Editor, Tribune: Dear Sir: Much has been written in your edi- torials and Peoples’ Forum in regard to the future of agriculture. The United States has undersold (dumped) for 30 years and at the London wheat congress insisted on unlimited dumping thus forcing a deadlock when other exporting na- tions worked for a plan to allot each > quota to sell in the European mar- cet, Also Russia, the largest grower, can sell cheaper because their rent and interest systems have been abolished.

While the Soviet farmer, of whom there are 11,000,000 collectives, gives one-fifth of the grain, as both sets of farmers grow about 10 bushels to the acre and get 50 cents a bushel or $1 for two bushels, Thus the Soviet farmer has an advantage of $1.40 an acre.

Escorted by two squadrons of cav- alry, Premier Laval motored to the petit Luxembourg palace to bring the new chief of state to the French white house. The premier and the 74-year-old President-elect were cheered as they proceeded through the streets. At the palace M. Doumer was greet- ed by M. Doumergue. The entire cabinet welcomed him and spoke briefly of the pleasure it gave him to turn over the chief. magistracy to @ true Republican patriot. After M. Doumer replied in a sim- ilar vein, the official acts were signed and General Dubail, grand chancel- lor of the Legion of Honor, placed the insignia of the grand master about the new president's neck. At that moment a 21-gun salute was fired from the banks of the nearby Seine and M, Doumer became president in fact. Minnesota Township Asks Financial Help St. Paul, June 15.—(#)—An appeal for help in a financial situation in Tay- lor township, Beltrami county, to prevent it from going bankrupt and the 190 residents from losing their homes, was received Saturday by At- torney General Henry N. Benson. The appeal was in a letier written by I. B. Stuart, Hines, township chairman, who said he did not have enough money for postage. He had borrowed @ stamp from a fellow tax- payer. The township is approximately $20,000 in debt, Stuart said. This in- cludes $16,000 in bonds issued by the township about 10 years ago to be used by Beltrami county for road building and improvement, $2.000 in delinquent interest on the bonds, and $2,000 in other indebtedness. If nothing can be done by the state, Stuart said the township citizens shall “become desperate.” Men of 50 to 70 years of age, will lose all they own, and are too old to start over again, he said.
