Embargo and Holiday Governor Langer is nothing if not ingenious. Faced with the prospect of running afoul of the federal government if he tampers with railroad trains, the ex- ecutive.now proposes to make his em- bargo on wheat shipments operative by issuing orders to elevator men and requiring the sheriffs to enforce them. Failure of the sheriffs to act prob- ably would be followed by removal’ orders against them and so these of- ficials may be expected to make an effort to comply. Some may do 80, with enthusiasm, depending upon their beliefs with regard to the le- gality and effectiveness of the em- bargo idea, Others may be half- hearted. The prospect is, however, that the embargo will be obeyed by most ele- vators, At present prices, no one wants to sell anyway unless he ab- solutely is compelled to do so. ‘The matter may rest there for a) while, but will eventually come to a head. Friends of the governor fear the situation may last until the price! rises—as it probably will do by rea- son of factors outside of North Da- kota’s control—and a large number of farmers want to sell. The gover- nor'’s real difficulty les in the fact that, if he will not permit wheat to be sold at the current price of 61 cents in Bismarck, he eventually will have to fix the price at which he will permit it to be sold. If the embargo stands and he has to make that de- cision, he will be in a tough spot, be- cause there will always be some who think the price should be higher. Government figures show the price now would be $1.04 at Chicago if wheat were on a parity with manu- factured products, based on the 1914 average. ee % The governor got a break Friday when the National Holiday associa- tion declared a nation-wide farm strike, was quick to take advantage of it and to endorse the proposal. He now can try the embargo under the most favorable conditions. In effect, he now is supporting the holi- day movement and is ordering the sheriffs to do 50. But only with regard to wheat, whereas the strike movement applies to all farm products, including those items which farmers used to regard as “pin money” and now depend up- on for many necessities. ‘The holiday leaders would have no milk, butter, eggs, poultry or similar products go to market. If the his- tory of the strikes a year ago is Tepeated there will be violence and efforts to stop delivery of such things to market. Whether or not the militia will be called upon to support the unofficial embargo on these products remains to be seen, but the tail ordinarily goes with the hide and this case may Prove no exception. * * ee ‘Those with friends and relatives living on farms know that the farm- er can stand a siege better than any- one else and on this basis the strike would be effective if there were wholehearted support in the rural districts. pay his bills, has seen himself sink- ing deeper and deeper into debt. He has had long years of it and even the strongest man may weaken. Such conditions are what promote holiday movements, Pay hs lb, Das en inet an] ek * The farmers of North Dakota, how- ever, showed no zest for such farm strikes @ year ago. There were some who advocated it but the rank and file remained apathetic. They were getting much too little for their product but what little they got was needed to buy coffee, sugar and sim- ilar items. It still is, and therein ies one of the strongest bars to suc- cess for the strike idea. Many a farmer will bear with se- rious ills more cheerfully than going without his morning coffee—or sugar to put in it. It is clear that the farm regions are approaching some sort of crisis. Either the proposed strike will suc- ceed and we shall go on from there or it will fail and carry to oblivion those who are promoting it. Which it is to be we will not be long in learning. The Need for Charity Although the federal government has broken all precedent in the ex- tent of its campaign to relieve un- employment, it is still true that pri- vate charity occupies the front trenches in the war on hunger and privation. ‘This is made inescapably clear by the remarks of President Roosevelt and Relief Director Harry Hopkins at the recent relief conference at Washington. No matter what the federal govern- ment may do, as the president point- ed out, in the end the whole thing comes back to the responsibility of individual citizens and organizations. And as a supplement to this there is Director Hopkins’ blunt assertion that “I don't know a place in the United States where relief is ade- quate.” All of this, of course, simply means that Community Chest campaigns this fall have got to be supported as never before. The federal government can help, Provide unemployed people with shel- ter and with food. But that, after all, is only part of the fight. You may keep a man from freezing to death or starving to death, but he can still be everlastingly miserable if the job doesn’t go any farther than that. s His children have got to have nor- mal educational and recreational fa- cilities. The health of his entire family must not be allowed to suffer. The deadly empty hours which come to a man who has no job have got to be filled somehow, and if the com- munity doesn't provide some way in which they can be filled advanta- geously the man is very likely to go to pieces. These are fields which the federal Government can hardly touch. They are up to local agencies; and since most city and county treasuries are Pretty empty, the burden has got to be carried very largely by private charity.

Senator Erickson Owns It (Cavalier County Republican) For many weeks employes of the state of North Dakota have been com- Ppelled to go up and down the high- ways and byways—mostly highways— of North Dakota selling subscriptions to the North Dakota Leader, publish- ed at Bismarck by the three Oscars— Erickson, Chaput and Buttedahl. No doubt these state employes have felt @ personal interest in the paper, for it was to tell the truth about the ac- tivities of their “chief” and they were in turn to furnish the means of truth telling by putting up five per cent of their salaries forethe maintenance of the newspaper. There were some who felt that Governor Langer was the owner as well as the founder and chief Bene- ficiary of the newspaper, although they were never sure of it, while some others who believe in team work in Politics and state affairs, really felt that the Leader belonged to the Non- Partisan League and any monetary benefits therefrom would accrue to the League organization. Uncle Sam, however, has an effec- tive way of answering some doubtful questions, including the ownership of newspapers of the country and how much there is against them in the way of bonds and mortgages. Once a year each newspaper in the United States is required to publish a sworn statement, setting forth certain facts regarding the publication, including the names of the publishers, editors, managing editors and owners. The sworn statement of the North Leader does it of the three Oscars, » is the “sole owner”, a to the statement, and it is free of debt, in- dicating that the five per cent assess- ment plan is working efficiently. ifs i Hu 3 z 8, Z 7 +f hundred thousand pe automobile manufac- 3 z i Hl : z United States.

PARESIS AND ADHESIONS MAKE MANY UNNECESSARY CRIPPLES What I have to say about adhesions ls of general application, and I hope readers will not write to me about their individual cases, for there is no advice I can offer, Adhesions that cause trouble are mainly due to too much rest, too much voddling, too prolonged splinting, ill- advised wearing of braces, arch props, corsets, slings, crutches, and slight- ing or neglect of the exercise, use or activities advised by the physician. ‘Well, anyway exercises or work or use hypothetically prescribed by the physician, I want to be fair. I acknowledge that physicians are sometimes un- skilled and hence negligent in the application of modern principles in practice. One still finds unfortunate individuals carrying arms in splints for long weeks after the broken bone has “knit” or become united by cal- lus. This is an antiquated custom which is no longer followed by phsyi- cians or surgeons who are well trained. In most cases today the com- |petent physician or surgeon removes jall splints or bandages from the {broken bone 24 hours or at least within the first few days after the injury, to see that conditions are all right and to begin gentle manipula- ton, which he repeats daily for the first few weeks, massaging and mov- ing the injured member gradually more and more day by day. He leaves the splints off altogether in three weeks, more or less, and in most frac- tures thus treated the patients are using the injured members quite freely by the end of the month. Only when there are special complications need the disability be prolonged as was the rule in old time practice. The purpose of splints is not to hold the broken fragments together.

The purpose of splints is simply to give the muscles rest, A reasoneble amount of rest is fine for an injured member, that is, where the injury is severe.
