Whe | Bismarck Tribune : mail per year dpe ii exhausted may bring to light more of the numerous rumors which have been in circulation re- cently regarding the management of this money. These reports, which apparently originated in widely varying quarters, are that relief apparently has been er for cigarettes; of the woman who arrived at a store, dressed in an ex- pensive fur coat and riding in a shiny automobile, and who used a purchase order for staples, paying cash for a quantity of “luxury” goods. Others long the same line. Some of these reports may be justified. It would be practically im- But the need is great and the funds are not likely to prove inexhaustible. the truly worthy may not suffer. It is obvious that there will be less Jefe for the really needy if reliet money is apportioned to all who ask, regardless of need. That fact, to- gether with the normal requirement for care in the expenditure of public money, demands that any sbuses which may exist be corrected at once —if they do exist. ‘The moral of the whole situation is pointed by the experience of a local As a volunteer worker in the char- ity headquarters he helped a woman select @ large quantity of goods on her representations that she needed The next day the same woman ap- peared and spent considerable money family. He sold them, of course, and collected cash. But the woman's name “help” was refused. If our local reliet organisation is being subjected to that sort of “ayp” the sooner it learns about it the bet- ter.

The game liberal tendency was reflected by the poll of 1930. Poising as the real question the is- sue whether the drys can hold 13 states in line, the magazine asserts that the major campaign of defense ‘will be made in the two states which indicated dry sentiment in 1932 and 14 others. These, together with the Percentage by which they voted wet in the 1932 poll are: Oklahoma, 54.8; Iowa, 63.4; Georgia, 688; Utah, 69.6; Nebraska, 62.9; Ken- tucky, 67.4; Tennessee, 51.6; North Dakota, 76.5; South Dakota, 69; New Hampshire, 68.9; South Carolina, 60; Alabama, 55.4; Mississippi, 56.2 and Florida, 74.9. ‘Whether the prohibition forces can hold these states in line seems doubt- ful. Most North Dakotans are of the opinion that their hopes are doomed in this state. It may easily be so in others. Certainly the wets will get away to ‘@ lead as the Wisconsin convention, scheduled to meet on April 25, prob- ably will make short work of ratifying the repeal amendment. Cheaper Than Charity Plenty has been said about the orgy of building which took place during the boom years providing more dwellings than there was any need for. But now that several years have passed, this overproduction has been well averaged down. A few years ago we were building several hundred thousand homes a year—undoubtedly too many. But last year we built only about 50,000. Thousands of these newer homes, as well as millions of older ones, have been allowed to deteriorate to the point of needing extensive repair, or replacement. There never was a better time to do either, than now. Lumber, ce- ment and other basic materials are selling at rock-bottom prices. So are electrical and plumbing and roofing! supplies. There is an abundance of, labor, skilled and unskilled. The citizen who builds a home today, or repairs the old one, not only obtains & bargain but strikes a blow at de- Pression. Money spent for construc- tion and maintenance of property covers @ wide area and alights in many pockets. It has a powerful stimulating effect on the national Purchasing power. If you're able to build a home and need one, do it now. If you aren't, you ean probably spend a few dole lars or a few hundred dollars on re- pairs and replacements. You'll save money, and you'll be doing your bit in the greatest war of modern times —the war against unemployment and distress. Investment and employment are cheaper than charity.
