There is lit- qtle doubt, however, if conditions do «mot change materially between now and April 10, the date of the run-off Felection, that Hindenburg will defeat “the radicals of the nation. n Ina radio address delivered to the wGermans, March 10, Hindenburg $made the issue before them very clear. tHe called special attention to the fact ythat his candidacy was not that of fany party or clique but of the Ger- Sman people. Representatives of all ut the very radical parties had urged ehim to run. © The vote reflects a Germany fairly Sunited upon the policy which must yeontinue if economic salvation is to be Iattained. \ Among other things Hindenburg id in his appeal to the voters: “The Rhineland is free; foreign control has gone; the Young Plan. already has been outdistanced by actual developments. I do not be- lieve we would have stood where we stand today, despite all the difficulties of the foreign situa- tion, if I had taken the advice offered me then not to sign that plan. “I bethought myself of the good old military principle that a mis- take in the choice of means is less reprehensible than doing nothing. It is quite conceivable } that there may be differences of opinion on any of these measures , and often I decided on them with : a heavy heart. “I think many of them, taken hurriedly in times of stress when the whole situation was most dif- ficult to grasp, could be improved upon, I do not believe all the burdens they impose can be borne indefinitely. I hope many may soon be rescinded or replaced by others. Remember 1914! Remem- ber the feeling at the front which called for the man, not for his po- sition nor for his party. As in time of war, the country's call eliminated all barriers and the whole pegple—workers, peasants and all—did their duty in common. sacrifice. I do not abandon hope that Germany will yet be re- united in common thought of the fatherland. “Whoever does not want to vote may leave it alone, but I will re- fuse no one who believes that I stand for the unity of the na- tion.” Hindenburg is a unique type among the leaders of Europe. He faces in- surmountable tasks of reconstruction, but he never shirks from the great job ahead of him. He has sought unity for Germany and has opposed radicals and hotheads whose cure-alls ‘would plunge Germany into a bloody revolution. Hindenburg knew much could be gained by a policy of watch- ful waiting, realizing that justice in the end would be done the German People. His remarkable vote in the elections of Sunday reflect the love and devo- tion in which the German people hold him. His position should strengthen rather than weaken before the next election day rolls around. A Fixed Easter ‘There is at least the bare possibil- ity that Easter, the greatest of all ‘Christian feasts and certainly one ‘of the most glorious on any calendar, may occur in the future at a fixed time instead of over a period vary- as much as 35 days as at present. ‘second Saturday e Bismarck Tribune | ?*ro2! outright at Geneva. abd it ‘Weekly by mail in state, per year $1.00 sesesseecesccesereseens 2.50 | The idea is to fix observance of ‘waster for the Sunday following the in April.

Preliminary views of the churches already have been obtained, accord- ing to leaders of the movement, the subject has been presented for their free determination but with the sup- port of the world governments given purely from a social and economic ; standpoint, The calendar reform group already has received from Pope Pius at Rome, speaking for the Roman Catholic church, the declaration that if the general welfare calls for changes in the traditional method of determin- ing Easter, the Holy Sec would examine the question on the recom- mendation of an ecumenical council. The same organization points out that the proposal has met with no objection from other Christian churches, though some make the proviso that it be universally ap- proved before being adopted. It may be that much of the urge for a stabilization of the Easter time comes from commercial interests. If so, they are entitled to be heard. It must, indeed, be a little disconcert- ing to discover that Easter comes in March one year and 35 days later the next. It will require much thought on the part of the ecclesiastics of the world before they support the change, but it is to be hoped they will do so unless there are weighty reasons to reject it. The regularity of indus- trial, commercial, financial, and judicial activities, as well as the ap- plication of a normal plan to school and unversity studies make it advis- jable from many ordinary standpoints. | It may be news to some persons, |but the fact is that at present Easter is the only great commonly-ob- served feast which is determined by the moon. It is officially fixed for the period of the first full moon after the vernal equinox, which oc- curs on March 21. Under this regu- lation, the date may wander any- where between March 22 and April 25. Kreuger and Eastman Two great captains of industry, Kreuger, match magnate, and East- man, world leader in the manufac- ture of cameras and lenses, within a few hours ended their lives. Both men had much to live for. They were wealthy. Eastman had legions of friends and was one of the world’s greatest philanthropists. His only words were. “My work is done, why wait?” In the case of Kreuger there may have been financial worries to in- duce the mental despondency which often leads to self-destruction. East- man, however, had no such worries. Like many wealthy men, he regarded his riches as a great public trust to be administered to alleviate the mis- fortunes of the many upon whom fortune had not smiled. There is something inexplicable in the act of suicide in the case of these men of outstanding ability and even genius. Their demise shocks the world. Editorial Comment Hditorials printed below show the hey ar to whether they agree or disagree with The Tribune's policies. Aristide Briand (New York World-Telegram) Aristide Briand will be missed. The world will miss him more than his own country, at least at first. Because upon him to temper with wisdom the destructive nationalism and militar- ism of the French extremists. He died at odds with some of the French poli- ticians, but secure in the affections of his people. Starting as a Socialist in his youth, he swung to conservatism in middle age. But unlike Clemenceau, who also began as a Socialist and turned conservative, he swung back toward radicalism in the evening of his life. _ Premier eleven times, Foreign Min- ister sixteen times, and a Cabinet member twenty-five times, M. Briand Probably was the most widely respect- ed French political figure of his day. Many titles were given him by friends and enemies. “Apostle of Peace” was the one he liked best— even though it probably cost him the Presidency, which was denied him by the Nationalists last year. The high point in his career was his labor for reconciliation between Ger- many and France. Working with the great Stresemann of Germany, who preceded him to the grave, he tried to build a Franco-German political and economic entente. He lived to see much of that foundation of a better peace swept away in the fury of Hit- jler's Fascism in Germany and Tar- dieu’s Nationalism in France. With Kellogg, of the United States, he shared the authorship of the world- wide treaty outlawing war as an in- strument of national policy. Last fall, when the Japanese armies of con- quest defied the Briand-Kellogg pact and the League Covenant, he stood al- most alone among world statesmen in defense of the peace machinery. Before the State Department in Washington was ready to act, M. Bri- and, as president of the League Coun- ell, challenged Japan. Lacking the support of his own country and of the British and American governments, M. Briand failed to stop the Japanese war. Now, when the United States is leading the defense of the treaties ‘and calling the League to follow, there is no Briand in Europe to rally the friends of peace.

Hitch says he “a woman who is a goose.” Buy or Sell Through The Tribune Want Ads | By DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor, Journal of the American Medical Association ‘The principal danger in competitive sports for children of grade school age lies in the possibility of over-ex- ertion before the child's body has be- come properly prepared for the ener- gies to be expended. ‘This danger, in most instances, may be overcome if the child is careful to “warm up” before such activity, just as the athletes do before football games or track meets. The “warming up” process enables the body to reach its maximum cell replacement and prevents the short breath and discomfort which usually precede what athletes call “second wind.” ‘Where trained athletes know these things and usually carefully observe them, children are apt not to under- stand why such preliminaries are nec- essary. . * * * Properly supervised competitive sports for children of grade school age nearly always include a “warming up” period. This should always be the case when the sport to be engaged in is a strenuous one. Daily Health News Children Should Be Taught to “Warm Up” Before Taking Part in Strenuous Exercise The same rules apply for children Col. H. TELLS PRESS.OF; LINDBERGH CASE as for grown-ups in regard to fatigue. While many children may seem al- most tireless, the fact may be that they are chronic sufferers from fa- tigue. ‘They should be taught to rest after strenuous exertion and to engage in no more sports than their bodies are capable of handling without strain. Children physically below normal should not be allowed to participate in the more strenuous sport, If they follow a systematic program of play, they will frequently develop greater strength and may soon be able to join their playmates in the more arduous games. Another fact that should be kept in mind in sports for children is that they cannot devote all of their energy to play, since there must always be a surplus to permit them to grow until they have reached full development. For that reason, continued and pro- longed playing of the more strenuous sports should be curtailed for all but the most robust children. If these simple rules are followed, the normal child may participate in and enjoy the sports ordinarily outlined in grade school and playground programs without ill effects. es cae od Associated Press Photo Norman Schwartzkopf, head of the New Jersey state police who has directed the police investi telling newspapermen about the cast ation of the Lindbergh kidnaping, the state house in Trenton, NJ. a “I'm not sure—" “You run right back to bed,” Mrs. Stanley said placidly. “I'll bring your breakfast in to yo! “We're not used to breakfast- ing in bed,” Ellen laughed self- consciously. She did not know quite how to meet the situation. *“You'll get used to it,” Mrs. Stanley promised confidently. “You'd better get back into bed now. There's someone looking at you from across the way.” She pointed to the window. Ellen fied. She woke Myra and broke the news. “I think {t's swell,” Myra de- clared, yawning. “Your Steven's grand. Bert wouldn’t have thought of such a thing in a mil- Mon years. I, for one, am cer- tainly willing to adopt the habit of breakfasting in bed for a while anyway.” “It looks as though we'd have to,” Ellen admitted, a small frown between her eyes. “Mrs. Stanley certainly has an air of ‘Here’s your breakfast—now you eat it.” “Then what's all the shootin’ for?” “I know Steven didn’t tell her to march in on us like this—that was her idea,” Ellen went on. “Just the same I’m not sure I ‘like having our lives snatched out of our hands this way.” “Anyone who brings me break- fast in bed can certainly snatch my life,” observed Myra. “I won't object. ee HE laughed and Ellen laughed too. After all she found it pleasant to lie in bed and break- fast from a tray at the very hour she had so often been rushing for subway train, Pleasant to have Mrs, Stanley moving about quietly putting the apartment to rights and asking no questions about anything. “If this 1s demoralization,” turned at Ellen’s impetuous en- trance. “The janitor let me in,” thé woman explained, apparently ob- Uvious of Elien’s surprise. “You and your sister were so sound * asleep it seemed a shame to dis- turb you.” “Oh,” said Ellen blankly. “I’m Mrs. Stanley, Mr, Barclay’s town housekeeper,” continued the unruffled voice. “He thought you'd be needing me. I just stopped on my way at the corner store and bought the things for breakfast.” Myra remarked as she dipped into a slice of pale green melon, “I'll never get enough of it.” “It is nice,” said Ellen con- tentedly. “Nice? It's perfect!” “What are you going to do to- day?” Ellen asked after a pause. “Well, after we leave the hos- pital I’m going to spend the afternoon hunting an apartment,” Myra answered. She blushed and added, “Bert is going to see Mr. if we both were married to- gether?” “I think it would be grand.” There was perfect peace he- tween the two girls, It was a Uttle later when they had begun to dress that Myra unconsciously delivered to Ellen a stab of pain. “When are you going to give up your job at the library?” Ellen demanded, as she twisted to see If the skirt of her jersey suit hung properly. _ “I'm not giving it up at all,” Myra answered. “They're letting me have two weeks’ vacation and that’s all I'll ¢ake.” She went on self-consciously, “You see Bert and I will be just starting out— not at all like you and Steven. Bert won't be drawing a grand salary at.Barclay’s for some years to come. It’s the dream of our lives to have our own home. You know that house we've been look- ing at Sundays for centuries? Well, it’s still for sale.” Ellen lost interest in the hang of her skirt. It was on the tip of her tongue to suggest that Steven would help with the house, She knew he would be glad to. Something in Myra’s face stopped the words. ee ERHAPS Myra read her thoughts, for she said un- comfortably: “Ellen, honey, there's some thing I think you and I should settle right now.” “What is it?” “You'll be living a life quite different from Bert's and mine,” Myra went on. ‘You'll have lots of things we won't have for years and may never have. You may be tempted to give us things we can't afford. And we won't want to take them.” “You just said,” protested Ellen with an uncertain laugh, “that you loved having breakfast in bed—loved being lazy.” “So I do, goose. But this is different. Mrs. Stanley is here because of you—not because of me. Mother.and Mike, of course, are different. But Bert and I are young and strong. We don’t want things made easy for us!” about to tear her away from old familiar things, She did not want that to happen. At the hospital the two girls found Mike as active a convales- cent as his heavy plaster casts would permit. Ellen left Myra there and returned alone to the apartment. The conversation of the morning still lingered in her mind. She blamed herself bitter- ly. Surely she was not marrying Steven for money or the things she thought he would do for her family. Surely she was not so unfair as to love him less because she had discovered it would be impossible for her to give her sister the luxuries she herself was to have. Ellen climbed the stairs feoling discouraged. eee mTeyeN was waiting for her in the apartment. When she saw him everything seemed all right again, She liked him so much that in time she was sure she would come to love him. When he kissed her there was nothing lacking in his kiss because she had determined to find nothing lacking. : She gave him an amusing ac- count of the morning and he con- fessed that for 30 years Mrs, Stanley had ordered him around exactly as she had ordered Ellen. “That was all right,” Ellen said. “But what is it you wanted to tell me?” * Barclay laughed, dug into his pocket and produced a passport which he flipped toward her. It was made out for Mr. and Mrs. Steven Barclay. “We're to have the bridal suite,” he explained, deeply pleased. “That’s why I was 80 long reaching here. It took quite a while to ‘persuade Lord Some body or Other he didn’t want it.” “Oh, what fun!” breathed El- len, conjuring up a vision of her- self stretched in a steamer chair, lazily watching the sparkle of blue waves and the leaping, curv- ing bodies of dolphins sporting in the sunshine. “How would you like it if Bert and Myra -were married with us?” “Fine idea,” he responded ab- sently, There was something more he wanted to say and he did not know how to say it. After a moment be was then that Ellen felt the wrench of pain. Until them it had not occurred to her that Myra would not have the same things she would have and share the same pleasures. Myra cer- tainly was entitled to her ‘pride. In that instant Ellen seemed to feel their lives slipping apart. “But surely,” she persisted, her lips quivering suspiciously, “when Steven and I come back from Europe yeu won't be too broud to stay with me sometimes.” “Of course not, silly!” Barclay this morning.” “Have you two set the wedding date yet?” Ellen demanded, “Do you think it would be fun Even with her sister's arm around her Ellen continued to feel a sense of loneliness; a queer pre- monition that something was cleared his throat and began: “Bilen, did you plan a big wed- ding? I mean did you think of having it here with all the neigh- bors in?” Ellen looked surprised. “Getting nervoug?” she de- manded mischfevously. Then see- ing that he was not diverted she continued soberly, “I really hadn't thonght about it, There's no one I want to have with me except mother and of course Myra and Bert. We'll have any kind of wedding you want, Steven.” “I want a very quiet ceremony,” Steven said abruptly, “More than that, my dear, I must explain to you my reasons,’ + (To Be Continued) ee oes ~» ~- | | ee
