(Official City, State and County Newspaper) Foreign Representatives CHICAGO NEW YORK BOSTON What the Democrats Offer In two previous editorials, The ‘Tribune has sought to explain and clarify what the various political factions stand for in this state and just what commitments have been made in the quest for votes. In this editorial we are completing the dis- cussion. These have been written not with the intention of swaying our readers one way or the other. It is not the function of a newspaper to tell its readers how to vote. Such action would be presumptuous and meddlesome. It is, however, the duty of a newspaper to present all the facts in its possession for the guid- ance of its readers. This has been the intent of the editorials devoted to the various party platforms. Now for the attitude of the Demo- cratic party. Here, on the surface at least, harmony seems to reign su- preme. There are no complications on the head of the ticket. The Dem- ocrats are for Franklin D. Roosevelt and all their state nominees and are working for them as hard as their campaign means will permit. Major planks in the Democratic platform cover both state and na- tional issues. Agriculture is placed first in im- portance by the Democrats. They charge the Republicans with having bungled the job of farm relief and with having failed to make good on their 1928 campaign promises. Other commitments are: First:—Growth of federal bureau- cracy is roundly denounced and en- dorsement given to strict economy at Washington through elimination of unnecessary functions of govern- ment. Second: —Endorses Roosevelt's plans for rehabilitation of agricul- ture through refinancing of farm in- debtedness. Third:—Reduction of the functions of state government to an absolute minimum. Elimination of activities costly in operation which are not properly concerned with government. Fourth:—Restoration of home rule to municipalities and cities, eliminat- ing many present state functions which conflict with local govern- ment. Fifth—Revision of state laws to correct ambiguities and inconsisten- cies. | Sixth:—Redistribution of the bur- den of taxation is favored and the Democrats advocate that the legisla- ture study the entire structure of school taxation. Seventh:—Disapproval of the wholesale initiation of a hodgepodge of laws upon which it is impossible to enlighten and educate the voters to secure intelligent balloting. Eighth:—Legislature should study Jaws tending to help and foster ag- riculture in North Dakota. This, in brief, summarizes what the Democrats believe are the reme- dies for the present economic prob- Jems. Most of them have high hopes Of carrying the state for Roosevelt and believe that some state offices can be captured also. They point with confidence to the March pri- maries where the issue was drawn between President Hoover and Frank- lin D. Roosevelt. 85,000. Normally the Democratic vote is between 25,000 and and 30,000 votes in this state. Some idea of how the Democrats dent desire to find some workable means of improving the situation of agriculture insofar as it is within the means of the state government to do it. To lift the tax burden from the farmer by reducing the cost of gov- ernment; to cut out the frills and furbelows of government, reducing its functions to the bare essentials; to support and promote cooperative | marketing and enterprise, at the/ same time insisting that those direct- ing it, rather than the state treasury, take the financial risk; to join with other agricultural states in a move- ment to aid the farmer—and through} him to help the businessman. Thesc | were the objects expressed. ‘The state program, as outlined by| DePuy, was Rooseveltian in tone. Without saying so in words, it de- veloped the idea of building prosper- ity from the bottom up, rather than attempting to let it filter from the| top down. In opposing the too frequent use of the initiative clause of the state con- stitution there was rather startling candor. Few who seek office in this state have had the courage to take{ such a stand, even though it may be more popular than most politicians suspect. In the main the difference between the Democratic program as outlined by Candidate DePuy and the Repub- lican program as outlined by his op- Ponent is one of method rather than of aims to be achieved. Presumably the public welfare and improvement of the general opportunity for the pursuit of happiness is the aim of every candidate. One can take his choice as to the method and person who best conforms to the ideas of} the individual voter. As Maine Goes Political precedents have no effect upon Franklin D. Roosevelt. He en- tered the New England elections without fear. Leaders told him that he could make no more impression upon the steadfast hearts of stand- pat Republicans than he could upon the rock-ribbed hills of Vermont. He replied in his Vermont speech- es that he was out to upset prece- dents and seek to give the people of the nation a new deal. Vermont turned out en masse to hear him.! As for the rest, the Maine election returns speak most eloquently. They upset the predictions of Pa- trick Hurley, secretary of war, and other Hoover campaign managers and apologists that the Democrats cannot carry a state in New England. It used to be an old slogan, as Maine goes so goes the nation. Re- Publicans pinned much faith to that Political adage. Maine used to vote on the presidential electors ahead of all the states, but at this presiden- tial election, the state will ballot at) the same time as other states on the presidential issue. But there is plenty in the Maine returns to cheer the hearts of Roose- velt supporters. To capture the gov- ernorship and two out of three con- gressmen shows which way the po- litical trend is at present writing. It indicates that great Republican) majorities can be turned into as-| tounding Democratic victories when national issues are at stake. In Maine, the Democrats took the wet side of the argument while the dry cause was sponsored by the Re- publicans. Active work of the wets to elect candidates who will support repeal of the Eighteenth Amend- ment seems to be effective. In every primary held to date the wets have shown decided gains whether wear-| ing Republican or Democratic la- bels. Now Maine steps into line in the finals and elects two wet con- gressmen. In 1928, Maine gave Hoover 179,923 and Alfred E. Smith, 81,179. A Specific Indictment The average citizen has heard the international bankers cussed and dis- cussed in general terms for so long that the action of Francis P. Gar- van, president of the Chemical Foun- jdation, Inc. comes as a refreshing development. For Garvan not only accuses the international bankers but is specific about it. What Garvan evidently is looking for is increased protection for ni- trates and other chemicals. His ac- cusation against the international bankers comes in connection with his explanation of why assigtance for one of our “infant industries” is needed. According to Garvan, the English, German, Chilean, French and other nitrate producers have organized a “cartel,” the object of which is to crush the nitrate makers of the United States and seize the Ameri- can market. ‘The international bankers enter the Picture with Garvan’s assertion that they loaned the foreign chemical in- terests $150,000,000 with which to would attempt to carry out their carry on the commercial war with the native manufacturers, Garvan contends that the money loaned now is frozen and never can be recovered and that it is being used against an American industry because the international bankers either did not sense the true facts or did not care, The average American probably will give the chemical makers at least but they certainly will not like the idea of a foreign combination fight- American money.

You may only touch it lightly with the palm of the left hand. Unmar- AN OCULIST OFFERS SOME POINTERS glasses is, the contribution of an oculist (physician who treats eye dis- eases) to popular education, I cordially agree with pointer No. 17 in this colleague's list: “The patient must remember that the specialist is not at all responsible for his condition when he comes for an examination; but that it is his own fault entirely.” You see, the specialist may come straight from a class reunion or an anniversary dinner or just a quiet ses- sion of a committee of medical so- ciety cronies where the various mem- bers read and discuss brief papers. Whatever his condition, it is reassur- ing to the patient to know that it is his own fault. No. 17 pointer tells the reader that “One pair of glasses usually suffices for a person under 40 Years of age. After that period of life, two pair are necessary—one to correct the defective eyesight and to be worn constantly; the other for near work, because of the fact that every one at 45 years of age needs what is called “eye glasses.” But the oculist approves the use of double lenses or bifocal one piece or invisible lenses instead of two pairs of glasses, provided these are mounted in spectacle frames and not worn as pince-nez (eye glasses kept on by a spring). In another pointer the doctor says the average person has the idea that glasses will restore them to com- fort... . What a fine subject etymology, Philology, the anatomy of words, would make in a high school course! It would be more interesting than cross-word puzzles, and I believe more instructive than such dreary subjects as English literature and composition. Incidentally, why not adopt the pro- noun “thon,” as suggested by Prof. William Lyon Phelps, I think, to refer to a person, some one, or anybody and everybody. It fits in. The oculist reminds us that in many cases of eyestrain the action of the eye muscles has become so un- reliable that the proper glasses, fitted after careful measurement of the vision by the oculist or optometrist, may make everything look distorted for a while. But the patient should follow the orders of the specialist un- til the muscles, under the correcting influence of the glasses, regain nor- mal balance. This may require two or three weeks in some cases. When a person first puts on bi- focal spectacles thon will generally experience difficulty in getting ac- customed to them, perhaps feel cer- tain thon will never be able to wear them with comfort. But if thon faithfully wears the glasses for a few days this early difficulty will clear away and presently thon will forget it and become unconscious of the glasses. There may be debate whether older folks should use the eyes when there is any eyestrain or wear the correc- tion offered by optometrist or oculist.

Fifth Ave- nue’s actual lifetime dates back to 1824; its organized merchandising career to 1907. * * * Behind the brave front with which “the avenoo” fages its jubliee there is more than a little concern. Few sections of the nation have felt more keenly the depression’s sting than the swanky strasse. Mergers have swal- lowed prominent firms; extravagances have been curtailed; prominent win- dows have stood empty or have been used by some neighboring store; those who once had wealth have been stretching their credit and store man-,| agers have had to sink rare jewels in the banks. Still, there’s the old Flatiron Build- ing to remind us of the days when Petticoats were whirled in the wind; there's Madison Square and the Li- brary, the deserted Wendel mansion and the gargantuan new Rockefeller Center. There isn’t the old Union League Club, with its white-haired crew of window gazers; there isn't Delmonicos or the Waldorf Astoria; Diana has gone and you'll need a de- tective to find a horse-drawn cab ex- cept around the Plaza. But there's the Empire State Build- ing; 45-cent dinner, busses, the Lafay- ette game room, the Brevoort and other attractions. ¥ * VENERABLE STREET And in case you're interested, here are a few scattered items concerning the historic highway: Andrew Car- negie was considered crazy when he built his mansion at 90th Street in the midst of a dozen shacks. But this brought in Henry Phipps, William A. Clark, William B. Leeds and other business chieftans—and “millionaire row” was born.

All search for “El Coyote” has been in vain, Ted Radcliffe, a young Ameri- can whose father Morales ruined, loves the Spaniard’s beautiful niece, Adela. Jito, Morales’ ward, is jeal- ous. Bob Harkness, a friend of Ted’s late father, urges Ted not to quarrel with Morales, as he has other plans. Following a raid on the village by Jito’s vaqueros, one of his men is killed by Anton, an Indian. Morales, fearing the vengeance of the tribe, releases Anton. Out riding, Adela tells Ted she disapproves of her un- cle’s treatment of the peons. Ted considers Adela’s wealth a barrier between them, but she tells him to let nothing interfere when he falls in love. Ted is forced to shoot his horse after a fall. He and Adela get lost and spend the night in the desert. Next morning, Adela tells Ted the bond between them must hold, come what may. They meet Anton, who lends Ted his horse. Morales is furi- ous. Adela resents his insinuations. CHAPTER XXIX “Stop. I forbid you to speak.” “I won't stop. I am sick for all time of these evasions. Listen, my uncle, I have known for many years there are two sexes in the world, I know how babies come, so let us keep to realities and frank truth, or we will be strangers always. If ever I love and wish to give myself to a man, no fear of you will stop me. But I will never lie to you. I want to be first with you always. I want you to love me and to be a comrade, just as you have been a parent, but don’t you see we never cdn if you won't trust? I tell you you are living in an age that’s past, and it is today that we have got to face. I'm not something too irresponsible to be left by myself. I am a girl of this century, and you are of past cen- turies, Even now you sit there with doubt and anger and suspicion writ- ten across your face. Can't you even trust me?” In cold fury he hurled at her. “You are the daughter of your mother, and as the daughter of a half-caste you have acted.” She rose, trembling with anger. Have I? Perhaps because I am a half-caste. Perhaps it is my moth- er’s Mexican blood that makes me wayward, so that I have spent a night with this man out on the des- ert, Bueno, my uncle. I have talked and you will not listen. Now I will talk no longer. From now on I will never say one single word of what happened out there last night. And whether I stay another hour in this house of suspicion and vile thinking, I) myself shall decide. Now, you can sit and nourish your own thoughts, whatever they are. Yes, and for your further peace of mind, I do this.” With one step the girl was at Ted’s side, and now she reached up and, drawing down his face, kissed his lips. “Remember that, my uncle, when you are thinking of last night.” With a little sob she turned and ran from the. room. For a long time after Adela had gone, the old man sat with head sunk forward, Then, with something that sounded like a sigh, he looked up at the tall man still standing be- fore him. For a long time he looked. He seemed to be weighing some thought, At last he rose, “Sefior Radcliffe, forget, all that you have heard and seen hefe, Those who have youth can never under- stand the tragedy of outliving one’s ime, Perhaps some day will be a language in which one may speak across the generations, but it is not yet. Of your own conduct, I have nothing to Tepe you, And now, if you will extuse me——” To ‘Ted came aggin the feeling that this coolly speaking, courteous Spaniard was acting a carefully chos- r en art, These eyes seemed to veil & cold malevolence that the calm of th GAY BANDIT e BORDE by TOM _. a s = es COPYRIGHT 1931, BY INTERNATIONAL MAGAZINE CO, INC. ~ DISTRIBUTED BY KING FEATURES SYNDICATE, INC. / RK GILL With one step the girl was at Ted’s side, and now she reached up and, drawing down his face, kissed his lips. words could not quite conceal, He answered quietly: “I am the one to go.” The old man nodded and put out his hand. “Perhaps it is best. But not in anger. Let us part saying, as my forefathers said, ‘May you go with God’,” He seemed very old and very lonely as he turned and walked with short, uneven steps across the patio and up the stairs, In the guest room Don Bob was standing by the window knocking the ash from his pipe, He looked up anxiously as the boy entered, “Well? Harsh words?” Ted shook his head. “None. But there's no doubt the old fellow hates me. I think I'd better go. There was a scene between Adela and Mo- rales that wasn’t pretty, and if chance throws Jito and me together today it’s likely to end in some broken furniture. Tell me what hap- pened last night when we didn’t come.” Don Bob reached for a cigar and laughed. “I felt like a lion tamer in a thunderstorm. By dusk Jito had driven Adela’s roadster three times down to the cnd of the road. Mo- rales remained calm, but he got more sullen as the hours passed. By night- fall both of them had forgotten they ever knew English, and we all did what little talking there was in Span- ish, It ‘Must be casier to say pleasant things in Spanish while you're think- ing murder in your heart. Before dawn I heard Jito saddle up and ride|_ offe-An hour ago he came back, look- ing like a soul let loose from hell. He called to Morales that Adela and you were found. Then I heard some whispered sentences, and once Morales raised his voice to say, ‘Re- member, no violence.” The rest of their talk behind closed doors. It's all easy enough to understand, You happen to be the first American who has ever taken Adela anywhere, Always she has been guarded by the tigid conventions of this place, Only for you she has let down the bars, And Jito, of course, would sell his soul and all the universe for Adela, “But what isn’t so easy for me to understand is why Morales has been so civil to you, It would be gore like him to order you thrown out the door—there’d be absolutely nothe, ing to prevent. There's something unexplained back of that. Whatever cquntry. An enemy out here is some- thing to be reckoned with. You know, I’m not so sure but that it might be a great deal better for you to go back East.” Ted had been throwing his clothes into the suitcase. At the last word he raised his head. “T’ll see them damned first. I'm going to make my home out here in spite of every Spaniard and vaquero on the border. Besides, there’s a reason——” Raising his eyes he caught the smile on his friend’s lips, “You're ‘joking about my running away.” “Perhaps. But I, too, was think- ing about that reason.” Presently his face grew serious again. “And yet, as to Adela——” “T know. I’ve said nothing, Bob.” Bob looked at him with eyes in which amusement and affection were mingled. “With that cherub face of yours, old son, you wouldn’t have to write an essay about it, would you?” Then he too busied himself with the packing. Only Morales seemed to speed their journey. Adela, he explained, was in her room, and he thaught best not to disturb her. The sefiors would understand. With Ted he shook hands gravely and for a mo- ment he held the hand of Don Bob between both his own, “We must see more of each other, old friend,” he said. “We have more in common than boundary fences, no?” Ten miles down the road Don Bob turned the roadster south from the Verdi highway and followed a sandy, winding trail toward the foothills. “Last night in one of his com- municative moments, Morales told me the major was making his head. quarters not far from here.
