That Old Army Song Few proverbs are more significant in these days of argument and coun- ter-argument than the old one about “Know the truth and the truth shall make you free.” But sometimes it 4s hard to learn the truth. Evidence of the fact is contained in a circular advertising a series of meetings in Burleigh county which lists seven persons as speakers in the effort to justify the state sales tax, to be voted on Sept. 22. The term ‘used in the circular, however, is “ex- Plain,” rather than justify. Prominently displayed is the state- ment that “the average citizen can learn but little from the columns of @ controlled press.” Newspapers and newspapermen are not without a sense of their own lim- itations. Even the greatest of news- papers is imperfect and all make mis- takes, no matter how valiantly they atrive for perfection. If there is one thing which may be said of the average newspaper, however, it is that it tries to tell the truth. More “controlling” than any other factor is its desire to be known as an instrument for spreading the truth; its reputation for veracity and donor. Tt is only fair, therefore, that those who prate about a “controlled press” be specific in their indictment. They owe it to themselves, to any newspa- per under suspicion and to the pub- Me to do so, Otherwise they must be accepted as individuals who talk to hear their own heads roar. Of the seven speakers listed as par- ticipating in the educational cam- paign in Burleigh county, five are on the state payroll. All are liable to Jose their jobs if they fail to take to the hustings in defense of the sales tax. Here is the list: W. J. Flannigan, state representa- tive from Stutsman county and di- rector of maintenance in the state’ highway department. 8. 8. McDonald, state senator from! Burleigh county and an inspector for the state regulatory department. ‘H. J. Roberts and Arthur Sorlie, employes of the state tax commis- sioner. ” Cc. E. Van Horne, deputy registrar of motor vehicles. ‘These are the men who have girded themselves to tell “the truth” about the state sales tax and other issues on the ballot. They are appearing—and appar- ently intend to appear—in small groups so as to cover more territory, but it does seem that they are miss- ing a wonderful opportunity. They should travel as a troupe and put on @ song and dance act. Chief among their numbers should be a song which Flannigan will remember from his army days: “All we do is sign the payroll.” The Future of the Forest Army One of the most completely suc- cessful of all the items on the “new program seems to be the for- is] : 5 e ca rT | i | ( eget if i it i Tribun &@ year without spending a good deal g i of money. The federal government has plenty of claims on its purse al- ready. But it might be money well spent. It would be hard to overestimate the financial value of the work such an army could do if it stayed on the job year in and year out. To save the timber resources we have, to de- velop new ones, to prevent soll ero- sion, to conserve water, to prevent floods—those are jobs well worth do- ing, even if they are costly. Certainly the question deserves se- tious consideration. This forest army is too good an outfit to be discarded offhand, Starved for Beauty How vast an opportunity exists in America for the marketing of worth- while things is proved by reports from all over the nation that the Jewelry business is enjoying a meas- urable share of the increased buying Power. Asa result, trade experts are Predicting for this season the best trade in three years. For several years now, many per- sons have been unable to satisfy their yearning for the finer things. Some have surprised themselves with the knowledge of how little is really nec- essary to life. Existence, for these, has been rather a drab affair. Among young people the urge to marry has been suppressed by the economic pinch. Now, when incomes are being in- creased or restored, it is only natural that many should satisfy this craving by visiting the jewelry store and buy- ing such things as they can afford. ‘With a job promising a steady in- come, many a swain will invest in a wedding ring. Should Be Careful Surveying the building industry, Dun and Bradstreet’s reports a con- tinuation during August of the up- ward trend marked in June and July. The value of building permits was 116 per cent larger than during the same month of 1932 and 10 per cent more than for July, although the nor- mal seasonal rise from July to Aug- ust is only one per cent. ‘There is a potential danger to this development, however, in the fact that building costs recently have tisen sharply. Some of this may be due to the NRA code but there is no question that pert of it is due to a) boosting ‘of prices in speculative an- ticipation of increased demand. Building prices have been too low and an increase was to be expected, but it should not be so sharp as to ‘scare prospective investors away from new building projects. 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. At Muscle Shoals (New York Times) ‘With the announcement of its rate schedule for municipal and domestic consumers of Muscle Shoals power the’ Tennessee Valley Authority has taken the first step to develop that, “yardstick” which, like the conven- dent ruler on dad’s desk, is to serve as both a measure and a_ switch. These rates do not directly affect the customers of privately owned plants. They may or may not presage th precise charges that may some day be demanded in contracts with such of the private companies as may bid for either Muscle Shoals or Cove Creek power. They are merely the rates at which any muncipality with- in thé area the Authority proposes to serve initially, which owns its own distribution system, may secure wholesale current, and will in turn be asked to distribute that current to the individual residence consumer. The wholesale rate is 7 mills a kilo- watt-hour; the retail rate will aver- age between 2 and 3 cents, with pro: gressively lower rates as the house- holder learns his lesson and uses more light and power. Even though these rates are lim- ited in their application, they reveal the kind of competition to which the private utilities are to be subjected as Senator Norris's dream material- izes. The wholesale rate to munici- palities and other private companies in the territory affected is probably not much above 7 mills today, but that is because the private utilities get somewhat higher rates from in- dustry, and of course very much higher rates from domestic consum- ers. The return from all sales in 1931, retail as well as wholesale, was about 12 mills.

Three of the things I frankly admit I know nothing about. ‘So there is no point in writing to me bout your a., m.c., or n.e. unless you simply must get off some sarcasm. ‘When it comes to sarcasticating, be- hheve me’I can give and take. Any- thing but reproach. Please do not take a reproachful attitude which you write me about your a., m.c., or n.ne. For all my hard-boiled manners — well, please don't reproach me. Scold me or abuse me or call me names—go as far you like. I never did take much stock in ad- hesions. It is teo late now to begin to take adhesions seriously. But I noticed a gentlemen passing my playroom, just now, a gentleman probably 58 years old but he could easily pass for 75. A crabid old chap, too. I remember my _ first encounter with him. Had a lot of heavy books temporarily occupying the sidewalk—books being moved into my playroom. The gent with the ad- hesions happened along. He might have stepped off the walk and around the obstruction without any trouble. But instead he complained of the in- justice of such usurpation of his rights and demanded to know how long we meant to keep the walk ob- structed, and when we informed him at it would not be for more than a year or two he moved on with a sense of duty done and a wish that there were an ill-natured police of- ficer handy. The old chap has something the matter with his shoulder. I hope it isn’t bursitis, indeed I do. But from the way he carries it I'd take a 3 to 1 bet that it is subacrominal (subdeltoid) bursitis, WITH adhe- sions.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Marks Interested in your recipe for paint to conceal white spots. Would it cover a flat birthmark ... (Miss W. J. M.) Answer—Well, no harm in trying it. The paint is a mixture of 1% ounces of zinc oxide, 1% ounces of calamin, two of glycerin and a int of water. Stir in, drop by drop till you get the desired tint, ichthyol. Generally less than one dram of ich- thyol (teaspoonful) will suffice, Grinding Teeth Three year old daughter grinds her teeth terribly when she is asleep... thinking it might be worms I gave her ++. (Mrs, E. N. M.) Answer—Most children who have worms do not grind their teeth. Most children who grind their teeth do not have worms.
