There Should Be No Truce Recent political developments at Fargo indicate that the substantial leaders of the Nonpartisan League and practically all the elected state ,Officials have severed political ties (with Gov. Langer and his coterie of ‘tive-per-cent office-holders. That was a courageous position for them to take. There should be no weakening. Attempts are being made to heal the breach, but the door once ‘closed to the Langer machine should ever be opened for negotiations. From the time of Langer’s Labor} Day address at New Rockford a year ago, the row started. He committed his fellow candidates in that address to impossible issues, cheap chicanery and hollow demagoguery. He declared, when elected governor, that until the North Dakota farmer received $1 per bushel for his wheat, not a kernel of grain would move to market because he, William Langer, would call out the militia and place ‘an air-tight embargo on the commod- ity. ‘The farmer is not getting the dol- Jar for his wheat and er is not ‘and cannot give him the promised embargo or price. There were other pledges and wild Statements which the farmers of North Dakota, in their distress, heralded as a new deal. Langer's fal- jucies were exposed at that time by many men within his own group, but the sycophants who smelled pork took up those promises and bruited them over the four corners of the state. He who sows the wind, usually reaps the whirlwind. That is what has happened in North Dakota. Re- Pudiation by the electorate is con- firmed now by the leaders of the party under whose banners Gov. Langer rode into office. Out of the action taken at Fargo recently should come a new leader- ship committed to sound economic policies, Men who will study a way out for North Dakota’s tax problems, are sorely needed. This state in 1915 had a public debt of less than $500,000. Today her people carry a load of more ‘han fifty millions. What have we +0 show for the orgy of spending? No constructive step has been taken by Gov. Langer materially to reduce that load. True, some appropriations were cut, ruthlessly and without thought or the application of intel- ligent economy. Some kitchen po- Ucies were instituted while the back stage was set for new extravagances 4nd exploitation. Despite the power given the gover- vor by a patronage-bought legisla- ture, officials in other state offices early resisted Gov. Langer’s political thicanery and blocked some beautiful schemes which would have eaten more deeply into the pockets of every voter in the state. They are entitled to great credit. They must have the continued cooperation of everyone concerned over the future of North Dakota. Their task is not an easy one, but they know the job must be done and in putting Gov. Langer ‘where he belongs, in 2 limbo of isola- tion and political ignominy, these (public servants and their backers have taken @ long stride toward a ‘Putting the Bank in the Clear Levy by the state board of equal- {zation of 3.54 mills for sinking fund and interest purposes is not altogeth- er what it seems. Its real purpose is to pay off more Portion of the heavy debt from bond operations which now weighs it down end which will continue to burden it $n the future. | manipulations, One of the worst charges which may now be made presence hes created an atmosphere of mumbo jumbo in handling the state’s fiscal affairs. It has been easy ‘to borrow from the bank and the temptation has been great. This alter- | native has proved too strong when compared with the less pleasant task of telling the people the truth and letting them know what this venture into finance was costing them. In this, it should be understood, no one faction was alone to blame. Since the bank reached a position where such things were possible, both sides have made use of the system. But now the bank is to be relieved of the load of state loans it has been carrying. The taxpayers will pour out their dollars to inter the dead horses which political management has wished upon it. If there were any injunctions against a renewal of former practices the result would be good. But, sad to relate, there are none. The wash- ing up of today may be followed by & new dirtying process tomorrow. The second reason for making the levy at this time—it may have been the compelling one—was clearly po- litical. During the recent sales tax campaign Governor Langer repeatedly told the peopfe that a tax levy would jbe necessary to pay bond interest. Strictly speaking this was not true, but for the board of equalization to make no levy after all the fuss and flurry raised by the executive would have been @ public confession on his part. To save his face he had to have a levy of some kind and the needs of the Bank of North Dakota served as a good argument for use on his fellow state officers, now def- initely arrayed against him. They, on their part, could not risk their position by failing to give the bank every safeguard. As.a result, the governor may ap- pear before the electorate at some future time and cite the current tax levy as proof of the statements made by him during the argument over the sales tax. He will be strictly in character if he does so. The fact is, however, that the levy was made to pay old debts rather than to meet current bond interest as the governor said he intended the sales tax to do. Issues Don’t Vary Much Public problems do not change so |much through the centuries. Recent- |ly the New York Sun, one of Amer- ica’s best written and most skilfully edited newspapers, celebrated its one hundredth anniversary. It was Charles Dana, associated with that newspaper in 1868, who really made the Sun. In assuming editorial direction of The Sun, Mr. Dana in his announce- {ment wrote: “It (The Sun) will advocate re- trenchment and economy in pub- lic expenditures and a reduction of the present crushing burdens | Of taxation. It will advocate the Speedy restoration of the South as needful to revive business and secure fair wages for labor.” The same pleas are being uttered today by press, pulpit and over the air. Mr. Dana, who fought Tam- many back in the sixties, seventies and eighties, would not have to change his policy much in 1933, ex- cept to make it more vigorous than he did in 1868, In several of the crow conferences held at local hotels, presided over by Vogel, Hamilton, TerHorst, et al, it is cheering to note that a physician Was present to bind up the wounds and soothe the sore heads.

In an epidemic of whooping cough in the Faroe Islands in 1929 and in an earlier epidemic in 1923-24, some valuable control observations were made. In the earlier epidemic whoop- ing cough vaccine was given to 2,094 individuals but none was given in 627 other cases. The vaccine then used did not prove of any value as a pre- ventive, but did make the illness mild- er and did lower the death rate, which | was only one-twelfth as great in the| vaccinated group as it was in the un- vaccinated. it is unfortunate that the medical profession persists in calling such; treatment “vaccination,” for it is not vaccination. It is not inoculation. No disease or disease germ or virus is in- jected or inoculated. Only the chem- |ical substance of the killed bacteria; is injected.
