(Official City, State and County Newspaper) ' Foreign Representatives SMALL, SPENCER, LEVINGS & BREWER (Incorporated) (CHICAGO NEW YORK BOSTON) It’s Viscount Snowden Now United States has always been, hheralded as the nation where the most lowly born may occupy the seats ‘of the mighty. From the log cabin ‘to the white house has in several in- stances been an accomplished feat. But in England, the journey from a Jower to the higher strata of society hhas been most arduous. There have ‘been times when the elevation of a Aabor-socialist to the House of Lords would have been impossible. There is a great emergency in England today. Men like MacDon- ld and Snowden are necessary in this crisis and the rigid class system in Great Britain bends to meet it. | Romance lurks even in politics. {What could be more romantic than the introduction of Lord Snowden, Wwiscount of Ickornshaw, to the House of Lords? He takes his title from ‘the Yorkshire hamlet where he was born and the name is old Norse, Meaning: “oak in the woods.” The World war was a great leveler of classes. Kings were discarded and the social structure revamped over} night. The rise of the Socialist Snowden, not by reason of succes- sion’ but by royal grant, while rare, has happened in the past. The Eng- lish system is flexible when political impasses demand that barriers be cast away. Another New Racket Mounting gasoline taxes have led to the development of a new racket. Tax evasion and tax fraud have become rampant in several states. It 4s said that profits from the racket thave been divided with conniving of- Nicials—exactly as in the liquor wecket. Gasoline bootlegging is com- mon. To meet these conditions it is sug- Bested that the oil industry and mo- torists work together to secure such Safeguards as licensing and bonding bf all dealers, adequate provisions for checking shipments and sales, and wo on. This might do a great deal (ef good, but the fundamental trou- ble is the fact that the states, through their attitude that “one cent mor: gas tax won't do any harm” have fooosted the gas tax far beyond sound Mmits, and so have attracted the Facketeer. In some states higher gas taxes have actually produced less revenue than did a lower tax. In this respect North Dakota is, etter off than some other states, even though increases in the gas tax Beem to have set the law of diminish- fing returns into action. As each cent thas been added, the proportionate net, Fevenue has shown a decrease, until fat present the state is paying out ap- proximately 40 per cent of its col- Jections in refunds. In this state, it would seem, gaso- Hine racketeers have not been active. Bome decreases have been shown in (consumption figures, but these may be due to causes other than failure ho tax gasoline used. \ Nevertheless, the experience of Dther states with gasoline taxes which fhave mounted out of reason is enough to give high-tax advocates in the farm states cause for thought. Worth Listening to Brainerd, Jr., chairman of the interstate Commerce Commission, recently said that in our desire for faster and more flexible transporta- tion service, we must be careful “not to destroy our existing transportation systems in which an immense amount @f permanent capital is invested and ‘which must, 50 far as can be dis- cerned, continue to carry the bulk Of our basis commodities. “The readjustment of transporta- Gon facilities should be made with the least possible economic waste.” Mr, Brainerd is worth listening to, @s head of the body whose duty it 4s to regulate the railroads in the in- terest of the public. In some cases, enthusiasm over busses and water- ‘ways and truck lines has passed way beyond the point of logic. It has been! waid that the railroads are an out- fmoded form of transport, doomed by [hese new developments. As a mat- Knowledge Is Power One finds support for the old adage that “Knowledge Is Power” in the situation now existing in North Da- kota in connection with the drive for drouth relief funds. Bismarck and Burleigh ‘county have done their part handsomely, as have some other counties, but stitl athers have failed to make the show- ing which ordinarily could be ex- Pected of them. W. C. McDowell, Fargo, general state chairman of the campaign, as- serts that in some communities the campaign is lagging “because too many committees have not sought the active support of men who know how to organize communities to raise money and go out and get it and bc done with the task.” The theory expressed in those words applies to more things than drouth relief. It is an idea whicit every city should keep in mind in dealing with its common problems. Every city in North Dakota lists among its population men and wom- en with sufficient experience and brains to solve its community prob- lems if they can be induced to give them attention or if their voices are, heard when their judgment is ex- Pressed. @ Sometimes, however, internal bick- erings, jealousies and clashing per- sSonalities operate to divide a city in such a way that many things are done wrongly and other things which should be done are not done at all— to say nothing of some things done which might better have been left alone. Bismarck is unusually fortunate in having men of ability and experience who may be called upon for public service and advice. It is fortunate: also in having an outstanding group of younger men who add to the wis- dom of the counselors the vigor and) fire of youth. These resources should go far toward making Bismarck a better place in which to live if they can be marshaled properly for future movements in the community inter- est. The same thing is true of many other communities. Editorial Comment Editorials printed below show the trend of lees by other editors.

Mrs. Caraway in the Senate GMinneapolis Tribune) For the first time in the history of the country a woman will shortly sit in the United States senate as a member of that body. Mrs. Hattie M. Caraway will succeed to the seat occupied for so many years by her late husband, who died with a year and a half of his term left to serve. Although the first active woman sen- ator reaches that body by appoint- ment, and though her appointment may be considered as a desire on the part of Arkansas to honor the mem- ory of Thaddeus H. Caraway, yet it is one that is of considerable signifi- cance, No one can predict what kind of a senator Mrs. Caraway will make or whether she will seek election to the senate when her term has expired. |The life of Washington and the ma- chinations of politics are not new to Mrs. Caraway for she has shared in them both with her husband. Though she may retire from active political life without seeking election, her service for even a short period will have focused the attention of the country on a woman in the senate. In that respect she may become the inspiration for women in other states with political ambitions to seek pub- lic office. Mrs. Caraway enters the senate at a time when the political currents of the nation are confused and her firs. session will see that confusion re- flected in debates, in legislation and in the relationships between mem- bers. For a woman less acquainted with the political scene it might be a trying initiation, but Mrs. Caraway will have a valuable background of Her advent to the senate will be watched with interest by the entire country and only the future can tell what influence Mrs. Caraway’s rec- ord and example will have on those who come after her, aspiring to a seat in the greatest of our public forums. , Coast Guard Crews Seek 11 Missing Men Houghton, Mich., Nov. 30.—(?) — Three coast guard crews Saturday began a search for 11 men who left Grand Marais November 25 for Wash- ington Harbor, Isle Royale, and have not been The men, five coast guards and six boat.

HENRY: BATES, detective, stood for a moment deep in thought. What he had just seen puzzled him greatly, apparently, and his watchers knew he would néver rest until the meaning of those events was clear. “Now what,” he mused aloud, “what makes The Fly act dopey like that?. Just looking at a courthouse steeple?” Neither Mary nor Mr. Jupiter had any explanation to offer, Bates jerked himself up. “Well,” he said briskly, “I'll be toddling along. I'll tell you what I find in here—it I find anything.” He in- dicated the package of torn pieces of cardboard in his coat pocket. “But—”" he paused again, impres- sively, in the doorway. “I'll say this much right now—you're not going to see much more of him around here. He's got the jitters over something. I look for him to take a run-out on us, maybe tonight. I'll bet if you were to go up to his room right now, you'd find bim packing his grips.” Down came Mr. Jupiter's stock- inged feet. “You think so?” “I do.” It sounded like an oath. Mary drew a deep breath. “Well,” she said resolutely, “here's one thing that won't go with him!” She held out the pracelet. “Why, that'’s—Mamma’ Mr. Jupiter exclaimed hoartely. “Where did you get it?” Mary told. As he listened, blink- ing from her to the bracelet and came into the uld man’s eyes and spots of red burned in his faded cheeks, He reached for the neck- back again, a light hardly sane! lose it if you leave it lying around your room tonight.” He tried to mask the quick alarm in his eyes as he added “Does The Fly know you've got that?” “No.” ATES drew a breath. “Better lock it up before he finds out.” He turned to Jupiter, who had re- laxed a bit but was still white as a sheet. “There's your case. You can send him up on that, and if you take my advice you'll do it, and not monkey around any longer. He's lable to get ugly if he has any suspicion you're laying for him—” He stopped and slapped a fist into his open palm. “Listen! It never struck me he'd be fool enough to keep the stuff on him, But it he hasn’t disposed of it yet, then maybe it’s in his room. When he’s on the roof tonight with you, Miss Harkness, I'll make a search. If it’s there, we'll wait right there and nab him when he comes down. If it isn’t—” “Nab him anyhow,” Jupiter fin- ished, . “By God, I'll make him eat that bracelet, chain and all!” “He couldn’t claim, could he,” Mary suggested, “that Eddie did it for him and turned the stuff over to him? I want to see him sent up, but I don’t want there to be any doubt, either, about whether it was he, or Eddie, who did the killing—” “You'll have to take a chance on your jury,” Bates said. “That's all you can do. If he can make them think it was Eddie, of course he'd beat the murder rap—” “He mustn't! He mustn't!” Mary cried. “We can’t let him get away with that!” “Well, well,” Bates soothed her, drawing her into the hallway, “it’s not likely.” He called a cheerful goodby to the old man, who was pacing about, obviously excited. “Mary!” Jupiter called out sharp- ly after her. “You need any money for anything?” Mary felt an im- pulse to laugh and cry at once. It was his way of thanking her for what she had done. “No,” she said. “Not that 1 know of, thi “ag “You'd better have some. You can’t tell what you're going to need it for,” Jupiter insisted. The em- barrassment of taking it was some- how alleviated by Bates’ presence, She would have refused, but she knew that it pleased him to give it to her. Bates closed the door and drew her away a few paces. “That old man’s not going to last if we don’t get this Fly locked up Pretty soon,” he said. “His arteries aren’t what they used to be, if I'm any judge. Best keep him as quiet as you can, and tonight I'll get the goods on’that crook if they're in this hotel. Leave it to me.” Mary felt undecided, and faintly rebellious, “We're not going to hurry things too fast!” she warned him. “Wait and see what happens tonight. I'm not telling Mr. Jupiter, but—I'm going to wear the ruby necklace!” Bates stared, “You'll be there, and Bruce. Why should I be afratd?” she added. Jace and his hand shook. “Here, you don’t want that, boss,” Bates intercepted it, quickly, palmed it and handed it back to Mary, winking significantly as he did so. “You'd better put that in the safe, sister, You're liable to “Nobody would shoot into a mob like that and he’d know it!” Bates objected. “I could put a man on both exits, though—” “Do it, I’m not ready to lose the necklace—yet, But if The Fly is jittery as you say, the sight of it iM might—steady him, think?” don’t you eee ATES considered. “Might,” he conceded. “If he wants it bad enough, Only he’s liable to make a wild grab for it and anybody that tried to stop him would be at a terrible disadvantage in that crowd. I wouldn't fire a gun in that mob. I know that.” “He won't try there, Leave it to me. What's the matter with taking him out to the yacht?” “You think you could?” Mary shrugged. “My blood’s up. I feel as if I could do the impossible tonight.” “Then go ahead. I'll play ball.” The prospect thrilled him, she could See. “We'll let it stand this way,” Mary told him. “You search his rooms, and whether you find the rest of the plunder or not, wait there. If he comes, it will mean I’ve failed. And if I,fail with him tonight it’s not likely I could suc- ceed another time. Arrest him. If he doesn’t come, you'll know we've gone out to the yacht. Better ha @ man on thé roof to tell you the moment we leave, and you follow. Is that clear?” “Right. Want me to go down with you until you stow that stuff away?” “Thanks, no. I don’t think there is any danger—yet.” “Wait.” He stepped into his own room which was on the other side of Mary's, and took down the re- ceiver, “Is Mr, De Loma in his room, do you know? No, don’t ring him! I merely wanted to know whether— oh, you ass!” Furious, he started to hang up, then changed his mind and held his hand over the mouth- piece until a man’s voice answered. Then, disguising his voice, he shouted at the top of his lungs, “Hello? Hello, Bill? Js this you, Bill? What? Is Bill Jones there? Hello!” A grin overspread his face as he hung up. “Phew! He's. there, all right, And mad! You should have heard what he called m Bates rubbed an ear tenderly, ell, run along, You know he’s not in the lobby, at any rate.” Mary walked across the half- empty lobby to the desk, stopping at the window to ask for her mail. Dirk had not written, She ex perienced the old, familiar sickness that swept over her whenever she let herself stop to think of him, to face the awful possibility that he did not mean to write, Aloud she said to the day clerk, who looked up startled at the depth of tragedy in the gray eyes turned to his, “I want to put some valu- ables in the safe.” “Will you just step around to the manager's office, please?” He indi- cated a door at the side which opened into an office just back of the desk itself. There was a door immediately behind the desk and it stood open now. Mary saw the sleek head of the manager bent over his books, Obediently, she walked around to the side door and entered, ‘HE hotel safe was in the man- ager’s office, in plain sight of anyone standing at the desk, Mary noticed a trifle nervously. Then she realized that this was a means of protection, rather than a danger. The safe was at all times plainly visible. In fact, a light was kept burning above it day and night. Moreover, The Fly was not a safe cracker, It might have been among his random accomplishments, but it was certainly not his specialty, so that in placing the bracelet and the I. 0. U. behind its sturdy lock she was making them as safe from The Fly’s depredations as any place could be, When she had dropped the enve- lope containing her two precious objects into the metal box held for it, and saw it tucked away in its pigeonhole, Mary began to breathe more freely. The necklace was in there, too, somewhere, she remem- bred. It occurred to her that this might be a good time to take it out, as she must do soon if she meant to wear it tonight. Impulsively, she asked for it, and when it had been located, and she had signed the slip, she tucked it into her handbag carefully, It might have been better to have had Someone with her, she reflected a trifle uneasily. On the other hand, it might be better tactics to do it in the most obvious manner pos- sible. The fascinating psychology of “The Purloined Letter” had left its impress on her, too. An instant later she was to doubt her Poe and regret that she had ever heard of him. For as she turned about, through the open door she saw De Loma standing at the desk! Apparently he had not seen her. He was standing with his back half-turned away, looking out into the lobby, But she could not be sure that he had not turned about just an instant before she herself had turned. Why, he could not have helped seeing her if he had faced the desk! The scene in the manager's office wag directly in front of his eyes. How had he come there so quick- ly, and why? Perhaps it was mere ly chance, Perhaps he had not been fooled by that telephone call of Bates’—had suspected it was mere ly an attempt to locate him while the necklace was in transit. But, what to do now? If she reached the elevator, she would have to cross the lobby and he would see her, She might ask the manager to accompany her to her room, She was about to ask his assist- ance when a second glance through the doorway showed that De Loma had gone, She waited a few minutes in the semi-darkness just outside the man- ager’s office, to give De Loma time to leave the place. Then she took @ deep breath, like a swimmer about to plunge in, and stepped out boldly on @ straight line for the elevator, She was holding her breath until that baven was reached, and when she get foot iu it at last, and saw that it was empty, she uttered a deep relieved sigh, and sagged against the wall of the elevator. Now, if the operator would only hurry. . . . He did— but not in time, A tall figure entered, removed his hat at sight of a woman passenger, looked again, apparently became aware of her identity for the first time, and exclaimed, “Miss Hark- ness! How nice to see you again!” It was De Loma. (To Be Continued) Lack of Sweets Might Do By DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor, Journal of the American Medical Association The conception that candy and sweets are a serious menace to child health is based upon years of belief by both physicians and parents. For years it has been thought that the eating of candy was the cause of dental caries. More recent evi- dence indicates that proper feeding of vitamins A C and D, and proper amounts of calcium and phosphorus in the diet, are far more important in relationship to dental caries than could be the eating of sugar and Sweets, Dr. A. A. Osman presented the subject before the Section on Odon- tology of the Royal Society of Medi- cine in Great Britain. He pointed, out that the child which is growing rapidly requires more carbohydrates to provide for its energy and muscular output than does the adult, He point- ed out that the harmful results of depriving the child of carbohydrates in the form of sugar and sweets might greatly outweigh any possible ...
