Terror Stricken ‘The apparent terror with which ul- tra-radical leaders of some groups re- gard the prospective return of good times is indicated by the proposal of the Farm Holiday association, led by Milo Reno, to call a new “farm strike.” Granted that conditions on the farm are not yet greatly improved over what they have been in recent months, the prospect is for much bet~ ter conditions in the immediate fu- ture. If the average farmer were in position to market now the grain and other produce which he sold last fall at starvation prices the urge for the holidgy movement would disappear rapidly. As it is, the farmer must wait for another crop to obtain the higher prices which already are ap- Parent and which may become even better as the recovery progresses. In view of this situation it is not H THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, MONDAY, MAY 8, 1938 : rent in Chicago where a fight is being waged for control of various labor unions. These’ unions are strong organiza- tions and some of them have not been above using terroristic tactics in deal- ing with “scab” labor, but they have Proved unable to cope with the threats and overt acts of criminals who see in them easy opportunities to fortune. Most susceptible to this sort of gangster control are those unions whose members work alone and in isolated places, hence the teamster and milk-wagon unions have been the first to fall prey to such domination. They are most susceptible to ruthless gang tactics. The man driving a wagon knows that he would be easy prey for any gangster who wanted to turn loose a machine gun as he drove along a street, that he woulti be no match for any gang which wished to wreck his conveyance and beat him into in- sensibility. Another phase of racketeering is that which threatens a man’s job un- Jess he submits to extortion. This sort of thing requires place, power and influence and the ability to make Good, just as the thug must prove his ability to do damage. But the effect is the same and the offense is no less reprehensible. This sort of thing is one of the canker sores of American life. The sooner it is eliminated entirely the sooner the country can lay claim to being really a land of equal oppor- tunity in the true American tradition. A Happy Occasion Bismarck was glad to welcome Sat- urday the participants in the annual Burleigh County Playday. It was not all play, of course, for the children participating had work- ed hard to prepare themselves for the various contests in which they were entered, but on the whole it was an enjoyable occasion for all concerned. Culminating the school year, it gave opportunity for each student who had won honors in his home district to meet the best from other sections of the county and test his mettle. Things like this develop real com- surprising that most farm organiza- tions are frowning upon the new strike movement. They feel it is un- ‘wise to rock the boat, now that it is headed toward fairer shores, and will give Reno and his group no assist- ance. Congress is working to relieve the farm-mortgage situation and those things which it is possible for government to do are being done. The Job will be finished in another month or so and the nation then will be able to estimate its worth. In the mean- time there is nothing much to do but to hang on. The “strike” movement tertainly will not aid in that task. But Reno and his associates do not Jook at the matter in quite that light, for the recovery will mean their re- turn to the comparative oblivion from whence they came. As individuals capable of stringing flamboyant words together, they have served some pur- Pose in giving voice to the farmers ‘woes but they are reluctant to see the spotlight shifted to anything else, no matter how much more pleasant. ‘They know that people no longer will iisten to their mouthings when bet- ter times return and so they are mak- ing one last desperate effort to make big figures of themselves. It matters little to them that their proposal can do no good and may do considerable harm, Public speakers of that parti- cular type seldom are concerned with anything except themselves, Another factor is that Reno and his ilk have won a fairly comfortable living from the hard-pressed agricul- turalists by selling memberships in their association. fever abated they will have to seek other avenues for finding bread and butter. The market for pyrotechnics has its ups and downs just like any other, and these gentry see themselves slipping. It will be interesting to note how many of them, when the movement finally fades under the sunshine of better times, return to the farms to enjoy the agricultural prosperity which they profess to wish for. Some of them could not return to that hon- ored occupation because they did not come from it in the first place. Racketeering at Its Worst Most citizens have been rather complacent about the racketeering which has been going on for several years in connection with the “busi- nesses” of bootlegging, gambling and vice. It has seemed to touch relative- Jy few people and so the honest, de- cent citizen could ignore it as some- hing which did not directly concern Elm. Now, however, the situation has hown marked change. We have the nectacle of tribute being laid upon Mronest working people by racketeers all sorts and descriptions, taking 2 part of the wages which should go to the support of families. Gangsters, politicians and crooked >olicemen may have a hand in it but One can lend it respectability, no Qmatter what the pretense or how the racket is worked. Be- it takes the earnings from the Pocket of the laborer, who very often 4s in no position to defend himself, it 4s one of the most reprehensible of all offenses against, sound public policy and a crime which calls to high heav- en and to all good citizens for venge- ance, It is probable that no state is with- out its horrible examples of this nefar- fous-practice, but the most spectacu- lar demonstration is that now cur- With the joining|to munity spirit and bring ‘city and country resident closer together in a realization that they are, after all, fellow Americans striving for the same things and in the same way. Those who worry about the future would be less concerned if they could have seen these fresh young faces Saturday and acquired something of the juvenile viewpoint of faith, hope and confidence. These young folks, when we stop to! realize it, provide a fountain at which their care-worn elders can renew their youth if they only will. ‘The sponsors of the playday are to be congratulated for the excellent. manner in which it was handled and for giving Bismarck this opportunity to view the young folks of the county in action on the stage and the ath+ letic field. Editorial Comment 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, Commune-ists (New York World-Telegram) A hundred and seventy-five busted “buddies,” unemployed war veterans trying to get along, are living together in @ five-story building over on E. 54th St. in a remarkable spirit of com- munal cooperation and self-govern- ment. The building is furnished them free by the Children’s Aid Society. A res- taurant chain sends them food left over at the close of the day. The men get up at 4 in the morning, according the account of Earl Sparling, World-Telegram writer, and work zealously about the place—painting, Cecorating, cleaning, preparing and serving meals, waiting on the sick. When the city starts to work the vet- erans go out job hunting—hoping that each can bring in at least enough to pay $1 a week into the communal fund. Those who can pay $4 or $5 give it until the others not earning anything can get on their feet and Pay their share. The community needed a truck to bring in provisions given them. They bought the truck for $15. The chauf- feurs take turn about driving it—a privilege and not a chore. The vet- erans maintain a small infirmary. The Brooklyn Naval Hospital is going to send them 60 veterans, and these will be kept in bed until they are able to be about and do their share. The overwhelming adversity of the depression seems to soften instead of embitter the hearts of many of its victims. A crust of bread is a bounty, and the spirit of sharing is greater as the thing to be shared is less. Let those. who believe that austere self-interest and greed are the primal and essential motivating forces of hu- men life consider the experiment of the 175 veterans in E. 54th St. In their case the ogre of fierce competi~ tion is relieved by charity. In the case of a larger society it could be relieved by the insurance of justice and a fair chance to earn and live. f Barbs | ———+ News note says Buckingham Pal- ace has 40 bedrooms.

No reply can be made to queries not conforming to instructions. Address Dr. William Brady, ITCH SALVE FOR RUM BLOSSOM ACNE Acne rosacea is the familiar red nose of dyspeptics and alcoholics, says Prof. Pusey in his famous textbook on Dermatology. Don’t mind conceding that most of the cases I have seen have been in Persons who had excellent digestion and didn’t know the taste of rum, booze, light wines, ale, beer or licker. For that matter, look at my nose. From time to time physiciams have noticed the common presence in the mouth of the sebaceous or oil duct a microscopic parasite, a mite about one-tenth the size of the old fashion- ed itch mite. This mite which may be found in the material expressed from a comedone (blackhead) by microsopic examination is rarely ab- sent—it has been found in the sebace- ous ducts of infants a few days old. Although it is a formidable looking little animal under the microscope, physicians have generally regarded it as a normal and harmless inhabitant. Once in a while some physician as- serts his belief that the little mite, called demodex folliculorum, is the cause of some skin trouble. Thus it has been held accountable in certain cases of pigmentation or brownish spots of the skin of face or neck and front of the chest, such spots being usually due to a different parasite, a fungus that grows in the form of spores and threads. Again the de- modex or Acarus folliculorum, only one-tenth the size of the itch mite (Acarus scabiei) which is barely visible to the naked eye, has been held ac- countable for some little warty cysts or wens in the skin resembling those commonly seen in the skin trouble called molluscum. Now Drs. Samuel Ayres and Nelson P. Anderson, Los Angeles skin special- ists, report that they have obtained highly satisfactory results in the treatment of many cases of acne rosacea and pityriasis folliculorum, in which the demodex mite was found in large numbers, with an ointment commonly used for scabies (old fash- ioned itch). Such ointment is composed of 2 parts of betanaphthol, 4 parts of sub- limed sulphur, 15 parts of balsam of peru and 15 parts of petrolatum. Many patients who declared their skin was so Sensitive it would not stand even a scrubbing with green soap or even plain soap and water, have nevertheless obtained excellent results from this salve after using it for a week or two. The affected skin should be washed thoroughly with soap and water every night, and the ointment applied for only three suc- cessive nights. It produces consider- able redness and slight peeling, but this subsides after several days. The three day ointment treatment may be repeated in the second and again in|. the third week if necessary. In reporting their observation to the profession these specialists point out that only cases in which the de- modex is found by microscopic exam- ination should have such treatment.

Dille Co.) By Paul Harrison New York, May 8.—Five circus press agents, strangely quiet, sat about a hotel room. Dexter Fellows, for 40 years a neologist extraordinary of glittering superlatives, gnawed his gray mustache uneasily. Roland But- ler, G. P. A. (General Press Agent, or Grand Purveyor of Adjectives), lewed @ pencil and muttered over an advertisement he was trying to write. Ora Parks, over in a corner, broke his moody silence: “Of course, we must admit it’s unquestionably a bril- liant idea, superbly and ingeniously conceived—” “Sure,” said dapper Frank Braden, “The idea is practically Brobding- nagian. A Gargantuan inspiration, in fact, well calculated to inspire amaze- ment and—” “However,” broke in William Wil- ken, “it’s too bad it had to come just as the mightiest and most preponde- rant aggregation of wonders and features ever known in circus history has been compounded into a massive entity in commemoration of the glit- tering golden jubilee of the greatest show on earth.” “Gentlemen,” said Mr. Fellows. migraine attacks from which I had|“Remember that a representative of suffered since I was a child of 10.the press is present.

We have things just as protolithic, and even more ma- crobian—” “Hey, I thought up that line,” Pouted Mr. Fellows. “Also the one about the convulsing attitudinarian- isms of our assemblage of clowns.” “What Mr. Butler was trying to say,” supplemented Mr. Braden, “is that never before have we publicity men had justifiable occasion. to em- Ploy such glowing and superlative terms in describing the pompous panoramic display and the subsequent gigantic array of multiple arenic marvels. Why, we have—” “And of course you realize,” Mr. Parks interposed, “the glamorous part that circus advertising and publicity have played in the past—the well- rounded descriptive phrases, the mag- nificently transplendent posters. Nat- urally we have considered ourselves masters of our craft. And now—” “And now—” Mr. Butler carried on, “Mr. Samuel Gompertz, new manager of the company, has issued an order against all of our multi-syllabic words. Circus press agentry, sir, stands bereft of its time-honored su- perlatives. Mr. Gumpertz seems to have taken exception to such phrases as ‘peregrinates its proudful paths,’ ‘presenting a preponderance of vastid- ities,’ and ‘an opulent exposition of Oriental panoply.’ “Mr. Gumpertz belidves that some of these terms may not be universal- ly comprehended. He believes our work will be more effective if we stick to ungarnished facts. “So from now on, in describing our riotous avalanche of howling hilar- ity we will mention only ‘a troupe of funny clowns.’ Our infinitude of daz- zling arenic marvels henceforth will be known simply as ‘twenty-one acts’ You get the idea—an Pression. Why, it's stupendous!” “Colossal!” echoed Messrs.

I want him!” Lily Lou, quick to see that she could get what she wanted now, beat the coverlet with her white, claw-like When they hesitated, looking with distress from one to the other, the first suspicion of what might have happened, dawned on her. 1 Then there was a reason... the little baby that she wouldn't look at at first was gone... had slipped away from her before she had let herself love him... . She lay back on her pillow, her eyes closed. The old impulse to hide. To keep them from knowing that she cared. They must not. guess . . . her baby, hers and Ken’s. “When did it die?” She opened her eyes, brought the} words out baldly, looking Herr Doc- tor straight in the eye. He started, and Madame Nahlman gave a |i tle cry. The sisters looked from one to the other... they were not sure what she had said. And suddenly she could not bear it. She burst into harsh, strangled sobs, sobs that tore themselves out of her, the sobs of the defeated and lost. She felt them crowding around her, offgring comfort, but she could not accept it. There was nothing) to her ... nothing .. . Until rosy sister brought the baby, his dark little face looking. strangely flattened and pinched, like a sick little old man. “He was ill, the poor little thing,” Madame Nahiman said. “When you got sick, he’ got sick, too, and so—” But Lily Lou did not listen to them. She took him in her arms, and held him close to her heart, smiling at them triumphantly through her tears, She did not remember them tak- ing him away. But when next she remembered things, they brought him back to her, and she knew that her troubles were over . the baby would get well... she’d get well... Overnight the hospital changed from a place of torture infested with strangers, who pushed and prodded and did unthinkable things to her, to a haven of safety in- habited by ministering angels. | She could lie on her soft white bed ... 80 safe, so drowsily con- tent, and know that the bubchen was close at hand, that she had only to lift her eyes and Schwester Schnabel or Schwester Wolfe would be right there.

With a presentiment of bad news she ripped open the first one. with armfuls of lilac and syringas, which the obliging sisters stuffed into bulging but strangely incom- modious vases. “You'll be coming home in a day or two now, Lily Lou—and then we'll be off to Paris, as soon as Doctor Sanders thinks you can travel. I've finished my Season at the opera house:” Madame Nahiman had finished her season... and Lily Lou hadn't even heard her... hadn’t heard one of the concerts either... , Where all the time had gone to. ... She didn’t want to leave the hos- Pitgl. She didn’t want to leave Vienna. Why, she hadn't seen a thing! They let the rosy sister, Schwester Schnabel, come home with her for the 10 days that were left before it was time to go back to Paris. Lily Lou’s strength came back in bounding rushes of renewed vital- ity and joy of living. She felt bet- ter than ever. She loved everybody and everything. She wanted to kiss each rosy-cheeked child she saw in the to endow each beggar with @ fortune. She adored the cafes, where everyone ate outdoors on round tables with green painted iron chairs, She gorged on wild strawberries, drowned in billowing whipped cream, tried 50 kinds of little cakes, each more delectable than the other. And the coffee! Oh, wouldn't mother and the church ladies enjoy s cup of real Viennese coffee, with whipped cream on top.... She almost wept when Susanne told her how gay the opera season had been, and what a marvelous day Easter was, with the streets fairly exuding holiness, and each white-veiled little girl and black coated little boy, driving in a one horse shay, all decorated with flow- ers, to church to make their first communion. Six weeks ,.. just gone out of her life... . They went back to Paris, There was the French bonne that Madame Nahlman had promised for the baby, a tall, pink-cheeked peasant with many petticoats and an amazing edifice of starched lace and streamers on her head, waiting to take him from Lily Lou’s arms. She bore him off in triumph, and Lily Lou, trying not to mind, and keeping an ear cocked for possible protest from the bubchen, went in- to her room to take off her things. For a moment she stood looking around the familiar little place with a sort of happy homesickness. Af- ter all, it was as-much home as any other place. She hadn’t liked it be- fore, but she hadn’t liked Vienna at first either. It seemed to take her a long time to get used to things. Maybe that was because she came from a little town, May- be she should have stayed in Wood- lake, and sung in the choir, and piareled somebody like Bert Bar- s. She glanced at her reflection in the mirror. Saw a tall, incredibly slender young woman in a Vionnet coat and an Agnes ‘hat, her lips reddened, her eyes faintly but per- ceptibly touched up... . Lily Lou turned from the mirror, flung the expensive hat on the bed. On the dresser was a little pile of letters that had not been forward- ed. With a presentment of bad news she ripped open the first one. ¥ Uncle Eph was dead. He had died in hfs little house up on Lone Mountain, May didn’t say how he had died. “He died,” she wrote, “and he left a will, and everything he had is to go to you. I suppose it amounts to about a thousand dollars. No doubt you can use it, but it seems funny, leaving it all to you, After all, you are not the only one in the family.” (To Be Continued) Copyright by King Features Syndicate, Tne. a aoe
