Foreign Representatives SMALL, SPENCER, BREWER (ncorporated) H CHICAGO NEW YORK BOSTON; The Fowler Recommendations| The legislature can well give ear-| nest study to some of the ideas eel pressed in the Fowler bill to stabilize state finances, There is no substi-/ tute for strict economy. Some palia- tives may work for a time, just as does the physician's shot in the arm to the groggy patient, but the “shot” ‘wears off and the essential malady remains which must be finally treat- ed or eliminated. North Dakota, generally speaking, suffers in common with #11 states from the economic slump which has dried up the sources of tax revenue. It suffers in addition because of a/ Jiberal policy of rural credits, flour , milling and other ventures of doubt- ful economic value. The futility of these expenditures ‘ being continued in these times of * stress is demonstrated today beyond @ reasonable doubt. North Dakota is proud of progress * made in education, construction of} highways and administration of sev- eral welfare projects. They are all; jaudatory ventures. But the time has come when some ©f the luxuries of government must | be eliminated. Many families have j been forced to curtail their own bud- gets. The process is not a pleasant one, but the penalties of extrava- ance are far worse. North Dakota 4s in no different category than the| average family. There is no magic wand that can be waved over the State to replenish her coffers. ‘There | must be economic recovery, resump- | ~ tion of trade, price increases, aboli- tion of unemployment and other changes before tax receipts come | back to normal. | It is necessary for the state to/ meet its fixed obligations to sustain | veredit. As a next step the general ; fund must be adequate to meet the | running expenses of the state after drastic reductions and curtailments have been initiated. This duty of the legislature is para- , Mount. Other matters are insignifi- cant in comparison. Politicians usu- tally resort to every kind of subter- ‘fuge before they face the cold facts. | -In North Dakota this year, the cold :facts cannot be dodged and there is | ‘only one way out—drastic legislative | jeurgery upon the state budget. | Quack, Quack | No longer will the nation listen. as dt has this winter, to the dismal wquacking at Washington of a lame- ‘duck congress, ‘ ‘This will be the last time, at least quntil the constitution is further tamended or abandoned, that we shall have the condition which now Pre- gvalls in the nation's capital, 2 Missouri ratified the Norris amend- Ment Monday, its house meeting four | “hours early in order to beat Massa- ‘chusetts and Arizona to the punch, | and all that remains is for the Secre- itary of State to announce the change latter the formalities of notification “have been completed. Any resume of the history of this long battle, to submit the issue to the various legislatures. For 10 years the matter was shelved and side- tracked around the national capitol, but Norris clung grimly to his deter- mination to effect a change and fi- nally his efforts were successful. The fact that the amendment was approved in near-record time indi- how correctly Norris repre- public’s idea of what was wrong on this issue. It educational effect which a .20|concerns take advantage of the sit- workers are idle, the comparison is worse. With their parents and older brothers and sisters out of jobs, some two million children under 18 years of age are employed, because most of them will. work for starvation wages. In many cases, long-continued un- employment of adult members of a family has thrown the younger igeneration into the role ci bread. winner, Discussing this condition, the na- tional child labor committee says: “Some of the less scrupulous small uation to work young girls excessive hours and at starvation wages. Be- jginners earning $3 a week or less in} textile and clothing manufacture have been reported from Connecti- cut, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and ; Pennsylvania. In South Carolina, {Georgia and Florida, where long working hours are allowed, the cen- sus of 1930 showed more children un- der 16 years employed in manufac- turing than in 1920. “In New York state there has been | @ positive increase in the number of children injured while at work, al-| though the total number of accidents to adults has been decreasing—an indication apparently, that children are taking adult jobs. Such condi-, tions are not only harmful to the! children employed, but tend to de-| ; Press wages for adults who must com- pete in the labor market with them.” This situation not only works a disadvantage to the nation now but| it places a handicap upon its future. Children who have worked since they were 12 years old cannot be expected to develop into the same type of citi- zens as those who have had adequate schooling. Now the house and senate probably will stage an argument about whether the alcoholic content of the proposed legal beer shall be 3.05 or 3.20. But that's all right. A large part of America will go right on using malt in its baking until the business is settled. It is probably good for the nation! that many of our relief programs have not advanced beyond the ora- torical stage. As long as they linger in that zone there is still hope for the Republic. If congress declares that 3.2 per cent beer is non-intoxicating and then bans its use in dry states, just what will that mean, we ask in all seriousness? Legally this“congress may be the! short session. We expect to the sen- ate it has been plenty Long. Editorial Cegmmen Editorials printed below show the trend of thought by other editors. They are published without regard to whether they agree or disagree with The Tribune's policies, The New Secession (New York Times) State Senator Martin of North Dakota has introduced a resolution in his Legislature proposing that thirty-nine Western States secede irom the Union, “carrying witb us the Star-Spangled Banner” and leaving to the other nine “the Stripes they richly deserve.” The nine to be left behind comprise what he describes as “the financial East.” They include the six New England States, plus New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Senator Martin's reason for wishing to part company ith this Eastern group is because | it “has so manipulated Congress” that it has grown “rich at the ex- Pense of the rest of the Union.” The nine States he names have an aggregate population of 34,000,000 and 18 spokesmen in the Senate of the United States. In round num- bers, they thus have one representa- tive in the upper branch of Congress for every 1,900,000 people. The thirty- nine Western States which would take the Star-Spangled Banner with them have an aggregate population cf 88,000,000 and 78 spokesmen in the Senate. They have thus one dele- gate for every 1,100,000 people. The first remarkable discovery Senator Martin has made is that the Eastern group can “manipulate” Congress | when it is under-represented in the upper branch in the proportion of nearly two to one, and out-voted by a majority of more than four to one. A still more remarkable consequence is that “the financial East” has used sts well-hidden power in order to establish @ system of taxation under which, with only a little more than one-fourth of the country's popula- ation, it pays about three-fifths of the individual income tax. Its way of growing “rich at the expense of the rest of the Union” is to contri- bute in individual income taxes about $6 per capita for every $2 contributed | ty the thirty-nine Western States on Mr. Martin’s list. It is safe to suppose that the North Dakota Legislature will vote to reject THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, TUESDAY, JANUARY 24, 1983 Now the Fire works Begin diagnosis, self-addressed envelope is enclosed. in ink.

In‘a_lantern-slide lecture on Es- thetic Plastic Surgery given in the Pan-Pacific Surgical Conference at Honolulu, Dr. Herbert Bames of Los Angeles said that theoretically sur- gery can never be scarless, but prac- tically it may be so. By this he meant that incisions may be rendered invisible by hiding them within areas covered by hair, or within orificial surfaces, or by blending them with the normal folds of the skin in ac- cordance with its grain or lines of muscular tension. The author went on to outline the technique of scarless surgery, and we mention a few of the points he em- | phasized: 1. The incision thru the skin should be vertical, not slanting, for the vertical incision permits even coaptation of the edges of the wound, where a slanting in- cision favors over-riding. 2. All tension of approximation of wound edges must be carried by the fascia, none by the skin. 3. Sutures should be tied loosely. 4. Fixation and splinting are im- Portant, to safeguard the newly created form while healing takes place. 5. A wet dressing is preferable for the first 24 hours. After that a dry dressing. 6. Early removal of sutures, usu- ally im from 24 to 48 hours, to prevent a rosary of stitch marks. 7. Artistic or sculptural talent in planning the operation and executing it. The same author, in a contriBution to California and Western Medicine (August, 1930) offers this excellent Suggestion for the treatment of facial disfigurement in automobile accidents chiefly by flying glass. The wounds are deep, ragged and difficult to sterilize. A wet dressing should be applied for the first 24 hours, leav- ing the open wounds to drain. Next day the wounds may be stitched or otherwise coapted. when it is possible to have better alignment, less swell- ing, less danger of infection or the re- {bout the the practice, as a general rule. But you are an exception to the rule, evidently. King Gustav of Sweden, who still plays a good game of tennis, which is too strenuous for most men past midde age. They Call It Science We found in our General Science class that water will boil at a lower temperature if the pressure is raised. ‘Will it boil in a vacuum? (E. W.) Answer—Water boils and evapor- ates at the lowest temperature when the air pressure is reduced to the lowest possible degree. One full year of every high school course should be devoted to the study of Physics. This superficial nonsense called “General Science” is a sorry surrender of edu- cation to jazz. : The Last Symphony Whatever became of the Brady Symphony which so many of your fans used to rave about? We haven't seen any mention of it in your column for the longest time. But we want you to know we still play the Brady Symphony at our house and I believe we have kept quite fit, thanks to it and you. (Miss G. M.) Answer—The printing and distri- bution of the piece costs money and since the depression hit us we have been compelled to retrench a bit. However, any one who feels the need of a@ good system of exercises to fol- Jow at home to keep from going flab- | by, may send a dime and a siamped envelope bearing his address and ask tor a copy of the Last Brady Sym- | Phony. Try it over on your meta- bolism and if you don't like it, pre- sent it to some lazy duffer who needs it. (Copyright, John F. Dille Co.) | Barbs oe eo ————_? Norman Thomas, the country's No. 1 Socialist, says that what tention of glass, oil or dirt in the wound. If such wounds are immedi- ately stitched there is likely to be more scar formation from subsequent swelling, distortion of surfaces, small stitch abscesses, or particles of glass, grease or other foreign material bur- ied in a wound. In closing any wound the use of subcuticular suture to place the ten- sion on the tissues under the skin rather than skin sutures is always Preferable, provided the skin incision can be nearly or quite coapted by this ineans. When such subcuticular. sut- uring is used, it may be prefarable to retain the skin edges in contact by means of adhesive plaster straps which are applied for a good distance back from the wound. This scientific delay of the sutur- ing till the next day makes it prac- tically the suturing of a clean wound. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Brh-rh-rh-rh! I am pastor of a village church.
