Tt is just as well to keep straight & record which letters such as that Daily by mail per year (in Bis- bs secscececccccevccccecce 120) have cost them to date, not to men- tion what they are in for as time Tolls on, there would be no talk of 00 |Moratoriums or calling out the mili- ‘tia to protect them from foreclosures. How Times Change ‘The old saying that politics makes bed-fellows and produces 200 | strange situations is aptly illustrated ‘by the appearance in President Roose- velt’s cabinet of Daniel C. Roper of Virginia and the task assigned to him as secretary of commerce. In the Hoover landslide of 1928, it will be recalled, Al Smith saw the “solid south” broken for the first time since reconstruction days after the Civil war. Southern “Hoovercrats” turned their ire on Smith and among them was Roper. He was not so out- spoken as Bishop Cannon, Tom Hef- lin and others of the band which was more bitter toward Smith than his Re- publican foes, but he is credited with having given them aid and support. During the heat of the 1928 campaign Roper sailed for Europe and remained there until the votes had been count- ed. As Roosevelt neared the presidency, however, he found it necessary to give Why Hold North Dakota Back? Moratoria are repugnarit to a large number of North Dakotans, They voted this kind of economic policy down vigorously at two elections. Yet by official proclamation there hangs over the business of the state like a pall, a moratorium without jus- tice, without legality and for no good reason or justification. Many businesses throughout the state are finding it hard to get into the stride set by the recent national economic adjustments made at Wash- ington, D. C. No one questions the wisdom of drastic control of state banks. None should open their doors which cannot give adequate protection to the de- Positors. Here, as in every state in the union, bank control has been faulty and examination lax, to say the least. But an overwhelming majority of North Dakota's citizens object to a foolish moratorium behind which some hedge and refuse to meet their honest obligations. Investigation has shown that every worthy and honest debtor is being given adequate protection by his cred- itors. All the fulmination about mili- tia to protect debtors is so much po- litical tub thumping. Banks, insur- ance companies and private loan agencies are extending time and addi- tional credit willingly. There is no need for the insult of pointed mus- kets or brass hats to protect anyone. The moratorium should be lifted at once because of the unfavorable im- pression created in credit centers upon which this state must continually draw if commerce is to move at all. Beating Old Tom Toms In a recent letter to the Peoples Forum, W. J. Church, a former mem- ber of the Board of Administration, gloats over the fact that the Grand Forks state mill and elevator proposes an energetic sales drive to increase the manufacture of flour in competi- tion with tax-paying private enter- prises. He beats the old tom tom of state ownership which has proved so costly and futile in North Dakota. Mr. Church doubtless would close the doors of every mill in the state so the white elephant at Grand Forks could continue to grind out flour at @ loss. Tax exempt and financed through taxing the farmers of the state, the politically controlled mill at Grand Forks has never shown an ac- tual profit. Accountants have been able, by ig- noring interest charges and proper de- preciation, to reveal a book or oper- ating profit, but into the tax levy each year must go an assessment upon every taxpayer to continue the lavish experiments at Grand Forks, In fact only a small percentage of North Dakotans use the flour. Train loads go to foreign fields where it must meet real competition at heavief losses than obtain on state sales. If accounts can be believed, it is Proposed to set-up a sales force that will blanket the state so that politics can be served with patronage and the People with more flour manufactured at greater losses. ‘There is no reason to rejoice if a mill at Temvik, Minot or some other Place which is creating a better mar- the party which had suffered the dis- affection of 1928 and Roper was the most eligible individual for that pur- pose. His appointment was made Possible because Senator Glass, who hails from the same state, declined to become secretary of the treasury, thereby opening the way for his fel- low Virginian. During Hoover's incumbency as secretary of commerce the office was greatly expanded, took on new im- Portance. This emphasis is general- ly credited with having helped Hoover win the Republican nomination after Calvin Coolidge did not choose to run. Democrats of Roper's ilk are credited with helping him translate nomina- tion into election. Now, in the job which brought Hoo- ver to fame, Roper has been assigned the task of dismantling the huge ma- chine which Hoover built up. Not A Dictator Henry A. Wallace, who apparently will have more power as secretary of agriculture than many presidents have had in the past, is emphatic in his desire that he doesn’t want to be called a “farm dictator.” The distaste for such terminology is a natural one to any real Ameri-, can. If he is like the average citizen, Wallace will be doing a lot of things soon in which he will be more hope- ful than certain of the outcome. A dictator has to have an overwhelming ego and be terrifically sure of him- self. When dealing with his fellow citizens and their affairs an Ameri- can finds its hard to acquire that frame of mind. Those who have it naturally rarely find themselves in Position to make their will effective. Editorial Comment Editorials printed below show the trend of thought by other editors.

Ruppert of the Yankees are, at this writing, still $10,- 000 apart. The Colonel offers $50, @ year, the Babe will take $60,000. The Babe's price would be a $15,000 cut, the Colonel’s $25,000. The nego- tiations and their continuing publicity do not injure the Yankee batsman’s market value and even may be worth the $10,000 extra if the Colonel de- cides that it is up to him to weaken. The Babe's dogs are way past their prime and about the only things this once versatile all round (on second thought “round” may stand) baseball Player has left are his eyes and his wallop. The same day that the story was printed of Ruth's refusal of $50,- 000 a faph appeared to the ef- jer opera organization, was broke, had Jost her Connecticut home on fore- closure, had her electric light cut off in her New York apartment and, although smiling, was down and out.

Address Dr. William Brady, in THE EFFECT OF EXERCISE ON THE KIDNEYS For years one of the queries com- ing regularly to this department has been: “Is it bad for the kidneys to ride a motorcycle? and for years the answer has gone out as regularly, “No.” From experience I know that railway men have a similar obsession that the jar of constant riding is likely to bring on kidney trouble. There is no foundation for it. Exercise of any kind increases the function of excretion by the kidneys. ‘The kidneys, as well as lungs and skin, have to remove such by-products of combustion in the muscles as wa- ter, uric acid, urea, oxalates and other ‘substances.

This has led to misunder- standings in not a few insurance ex- aminations where the examining doc- tor is dumb. Insurance companies like ‘em that way. When they find a doctor who is extraordinarily dumb they make him a director something, and that accounts for the funny ex- amination blanks and the silly ques- tions the applicant has to answer. The quantity of albumen in the urine is increased if the vigorous exer- cise is associated with anxiety or ex- citement, as in a football game or other contest. Basketball players usually show al- bumen after match games, and some of them do after mere practice games. Marathon runners invariably have a considerable trace of albumen in the urine after a race, and some of them this in his classical “Exercise in Edu- cation and Medicine” says: “This would go to prove that after severe exercise there is al- ways a nephritis, lasting from few hours or days to a week, ac: cording to the sevérity of the exertion and the condition of the subject. “The sediment present after ex- ercise resembles (chemically) the get a fair amount of moderate exer- cise every day.
