All rights of republication of all other matter herein are also reserved. Tugging at Bootetraps Governor William Langer will find that proclaiming an embargo on shipments of wheat from the state is a much easier matter than lift- ing the barrier should it be permit- ted to stand without challenge in the courts. In commenting on the embargo, the governor presents an entirely new face to the people of North Dakota, dropping his role of political and economic salvationist and ad- mitting frankly that the whole busi- ness is a gesture. The chief benefit which he expects, judging from his quoted statement, is to call attention to the plight of agriculture and thereby, perhaps, in- duce more conclusive remedial action by the federal government. What benefit that kind of adver- Nazi organization. As a practical matter, the voter will have the cholce of approving the Nazi candidates or Tefraining from balloting at all. In the pre-election campaign only torate, violations of the rules are punish- .|able by the maximum penalty of death, Any challenge to the Hitler aims is legally characterized as subversive propaganda, also punish- able by death. In view of these things the Hitler 00} regime will be enabled to announce that @ solidified Germany stands be- hind the party. The world will have no means of gauging what the na- tives of the Fatherland feel in their hearts. To one who really believes in democracy it is a discouraging situa- tion, Inflation and Circulation Senator Lynn J. Frazier, honestly we believe, uttered a common eco- nomic fallacy in Minneapolis recent- ly when he urged that the federal government pump more money into circulation as a cure for the depres- sion and as a means of increasing the purchasing power of the nation’s population. If Senator Frazier will turn to the government reports, he will find that on March 31, 1933, a low point of the depression, there was in circulation some $6,319,514,854, the greatest amount of money available for the necessities of exchange and general trade in a quarter of a century. ‘When the crash came in 1929, and for many months following, there was more money available for all pur- poses than in many other decades of our financial history. The ancient fallacy of more money, more prosperity has been exploded too often to be taken seriously. ‘There must be more fundamental remedies applied than the starting of Printing presses and the creation of fiat money. Imagine the plight of tising may have remains to be seen, but it seems only reasonable that the process will be expensive to many residents of this state. The governor himself discounts the possibility that the embargo will raise the price of wheat. In this he un- doubtedly is right, in so far as North Dakota farmers are concerned, even though the market price elsewhere might conceivably be lifted during the period the embargo remains in force. But if such an advance occurs, it will be farmers of other states, not North Dakotans, who will be in posi- tion to take advantage of it. The action of Tuesday's grain market may be taken as a measure of the supreme indifference with which the major grain centers view this North Dakota action. First public mention of a possible embargo was made Saturday, too late for it to affect the markets at Chicago, Duluth or Minneapolis. The information was available to “the trade” at the opening of Mon- day’s market, but seemed to make no measurable impression. In the tarly part of the day the market seemed stronger, then it fell and, remained near the bottom until the markets closed. If there was any general fear of a shortage the quoted prices failed to show it. But the fact remains that, what- ever benefits may accrue from it, di- rectly or indirectly, the farmers of North Dakota will be in no position to realize them. If it should de- velop that declaration of an em- bargo acts to raise the price of wheat, removal of the barrier could reasonably be expected to have the opposite effect. Unless the vast majority of law- yers who have given curbstone opin- jons prove to be wrong, the law giving the governor authority to order and enforce such an embargo is unconstitutional. The farmers of this state well remember the decision Of @ dozen years ago which held that state interference with or supervision over the grain trade is an unwar- vanted bar to interstate commerce. Since that time the tendency has been to centralize more power in the hands of the federal government rather than delegate additional au- thority to the states. ‘The political angles of the situa- tion cannot well be overlooked. Some organizations in the state have long the farmer and the wage earner un- der inflation. These two classes would suffer most under the ills of an in- flationary policy. Statistics show that in the boom years of 1928 and 1929, less money was in circulation than in the dark years of 1931-32-33, One of the first steps toward re- covery is tho easing of the terrific load of public debt piled upon the shoul- ders of the people because of ill-ad- vised and half-baked panaceas. ——$__—_____ Foiling the Gangsters One of the by-products of the Blue Eagle's activities apparently is going to be a ruling whereby machine guns no longer will be sold to gangsters. The code for arms manufacturers includes a paragraph under which the manufacturers agree not to sell machine guns to anyone except gov- ernment agencies and such private Corporations as maintain regularly organized police departments of their own, Here is a rule we have needed for a long time. Our complacency in Permitting thugs of high and low degree to possess machine guns has been little short of idiotic, Any scheme whereby possession of such weapons is restricted to those who have a right to possess them is bound to meet popular approval. ee Editorial Comment Editortals printed below show the trend of thought by other editors. hey, ace.

Some day you are going to graduate from the primary department, so you should get into the veneate’ dirtaorod the spelling, pronuncia' and mean- ing of unfazniliar bwords by referring to a good dictionary. What, no au- thoritative, first class, up to date un-/ abridged dictionary in your home? Oh, well, turn back to the comic strips. Maybe they are adapted to your intellectual capacity. Recently I enjoyed an hour of con- versation with @ college professor. It. was embarrassing the number of sub- jects on which the man confessed ig- norance—yet ig the course of the hour I learned many things it would have taken a lot of study and reading to learn otherwise. Ignorance in the case of a person who wishes to learn is—well, aren't we all pretty ignor- ant.of many things? But ignorance in one who does not care to learn is @ repulsive thing. So I say a good standard dictionary, a real dictionary and not some tawdry premium or bar- gain book, deserves a place in every ome. Members of the household may have many delightful discussions of the origin, meaning, spelling or pronunciation of words, with the dic- tionary to settle all bets. In such family quarrels every participant gains something. Just as there are many ignorant folk who seem to have no desire to learn, so there are many invalids or cripples who seem to have no desire for rehabilitation. I refer particular- ly to those who are more or less dis- abled or crippled by neglected or un- essential adhesions or by neglected paresis or weakening of muscles from unduly prolonged wearing of braces, splints, props, supporters, or from ill advised use of such orthopedic ap- pliances. Not only frankly ignorant people, but also wiseacres quite commonly achieve nocuous desuetude by deliber= ately subjecting themselves to these risks, if I may so characterize them, without benefit of medicine. Trouble with the wiseacre’s concep- tion of the doctoring art is that it is half a century behind the times. A lady suffered a fracture in an automobile accident. After a suffi- cient length of time in splints the fracture or break was “knit” or united with callus and the physician di- rected that supports be left off longer and longer day by day, and that the Patient use the injured member in certain exercises increased day by day.
