That Seaway Treaty ‘When the St. Lawrence seaway treaty comes to a vote in the senate, ‘the two representatives of this state may be expected to support it. Sentiment in North Dakota has heen building up over a long period of years and it clearly is the will of our citizens that they be given access to the sea through this improvement ‘which will bring ocean-going ships to within about 400 miles of Bis- marck. ‘We must remember, however, that ‘we are only a small part of the na- tion and that gigantic forces are ar- rayed against this proposal. A little contemplation of our transportation ‘and economic set-up will readily dis- close why. Foremost in the opposition will be the New York influence, even though the president hails from that state. Senator Robert F. Wagner, close friend of the president though he is, ‘will split with him on this issue and Senator Copeland may be expected to follow suit. The reason may be found im the fact that New York now is the greatest port on the continent and the remark of a New York congress- man that the “sole aim of this pact seems to be to make Montreal the greatest seaport in North America.” In short, many New York enter- prises are fighting for their very ex- istence and in such circumstances men do not yisld easily. Both up and down the Atlantic coast, the situation is much the same. Seaport cities have gained tremen- dous advantage over cross-continent shipments because of low rates through the Panama Canal. They also do a big business in goods des- tined for shipment abroad. Their revenues would suffer, at least in part, if ocean-going ships are per- mitted to penetrate into the heart of America. In the central Mississippi valley Opposition to the treaty has been built up because waterways promo- ters there feel the seaway will inter- fere with development of river trans- portation. Kansas, Missouri, Iowa and neigh- boring states have long looked for- ward to @ linking of the lakes and the Mississippi by a commercial wa- terway and such an avenue of com- merce already is in existence. They claim they need such accommodation if inland factories are to stay where they are apd meet competition from. firms having cheaper transportation via the seaway. ‘This, they contend, will be denied’ them under the terms of the treaty limiting withdrawal of water through the Chicago drainage canal to 4,000 second feet, It is not enough to ac- commodate all of the barges and light draft vessels which will want to use the canal, they say, and the restric- tion threatens to stunt that artery of commerce before it is even well started. Hence we have Senator Bennett Clark of Missouri, good Democrat though he is, leading Middle Western pposition to ratification. The states bordering on the lakes,| ‘with the possible exception of Illinois and New York, will be for the treaty without reservation. Its advantages to them are undeniable. Both sides claim they will win eES2E it § g & neeg i E i | : & g & t EY, tee Hl & e when the boom came, compared with private industry, and there frequent- ly have been times when employes of the government were at a disadvan- tage. ‘The move is strictly in line with the president’s theories about the Purchasing power of money, He clearly has espoused the principle of the commodity dollar for the nation €8 a whole and this situation gives him excellent opportunity to achieve the same effect with regard to public servants, Meanwhile the thousands of men and women in the postoffices and other federal services are to be con- @ratulated upon the manner in which they have cooperated.

PLAY HORSE WITH YOUR BABY Our Yankee reader contributes her observation: \ A while ago I read in your column the query of the woman whose 20- months-old baby refused to walk. The answer you gave her was good. I thought. Of course it is not impos- sible that the baby may have a men- tal defect. However, as a mother of fair experience, I am inclined to be- Heve that the child lacks only the confidence necessary to commence walking. I say this because my son refused to walk at the age of 21 months, al- though he was advanced in talking and in his general development and muscular strength. He is cautious by nature and inheritance—regular New England Yankee stock!—you know us, jall right. So I bethought myself psy- | chology was needed. I took my belt |one day and placed it around his mid- jdle. I then suggested to him that he be a horse which I would drive. | It worked, by appealing to his imagin- ation and helping him overcome his scruples against excessive display of leg motion. At first I gave him some | support, but after a few trials I drop- ‘ped my end of the strap and the “horse” kept on. After a few peram- bulations he discovered the driver was not with him. Did he stop walk- ‘ing? Not he! He is four years old now. He climbed his @ week ago. first_ mountain | PERSONAL HEALTH SERVICE. By William Brady, M. D.

The Gallic policy always has been to take everything and give nothing, as the war debts prove. But when it comes to wine quotas, America has the whip hand and should not hesitate to use it. There is more than a little argument in ‘favor of the suggestion of Rep. Knudtson of Minnesota that the tar- iff on French imports be tripled, in ‘comparison with tariffs on imports from other nations, and the differ- ence thus accumulated applied on the war debts. ‘That seems to be quite in line with the horse-trading policy on such mat- ters which seems to have been espoused by the national administra- tion, Removing the Cloak President Roosevelt's pledge that this government is finished with the old policy of armed intervention into the affairs of its Latin-American neighbors is generally looked upon as a historic modification of the Monroe Doctrine. It might be more accurate to say that instead of a modification ‘it is a restoration of that doctrine. Originally, the Monroe Doctrine simply was a declaration that this country would resist any attempt by European powers to establish new colonies, protectorates or “‘spheres of influence” in the new world. It was only comparatively recently that it became a cloak beneath which the ‘United States interfered in the in- ternal affairs of other nations. President Roosevelt's declaration restores it to its old position. The historic doctrine is back now where it was when first promulgated.

HAIL DEPARTMENT IS DEFENDANT IN SUIT Following Disclosure of Irregularities A civil action to obtain $572 from the state hail insurance department was launched in Burleigh county dis- trict court late Wednesday by George F. Zander, New Salem farmer, as a sequel to the recent disclosure of ir- regularities by Earl J. Heising, or of the department. Gander claims he is entitied to the money as indemnity on 125 acres of grain on his farm which he says was wiped out by hail in 1927. The plaintiff claims he made a proper claim shortly after the hail storm in the middle of June of that year and that a representative of the hail department made an appraisal at his farm. He later was informed by the Mor- ten county auditor, his complaint sets forth, that his land had not been Properly listed for hail insurance and therefore the crop was not insured. An indemnity warrant was issued, however, Feb. 3, 1928, the plaintiff claims made payable to Zander.

The program will be staged in the Capital Chevrolet ‘company’s garage, beginning at 7:30 o'clock. The demonstration, arranged by the Phillips Petroleum company to show the volatility of Phillips 66 gasoline, will be made with a special engine mounted on a truck chassis. This engine is automatic, having large dials readable from a long dis- tance which indicate the pick-up, time taken to travel certain distances, starting at different speeds in high gear, registering the time taken, the amounts of gasoline used and other features. The performance of Phillips 66 motor fuel will be compared with Other gasolines. Short lectures by an expert are planned before and after the demonstration.

The order requires approval payment of $291 for each of the months of July, August, September, October and November. The auditing board had refused to approve payment of McDowell’s sal- ary on the ground that the last legis- lature made no appropriation for such purpose. McDowell, however, has continued working in the position, since the legislature failed to repeal the measure creating the office.

Curt te try- ing #9 capture Karaichan. urt, with hie partner, Paul, and Ralph Nichols, Sonya’e former aid, are lest stranded on an island én the middle of @ lake with neither ca- noes nor provisions after an at. tack by the Klosohee Indiang that has been inspired by Karakhan, Ralph ia desperately wounded. Chapter 37 TENN-OG AGAIN VER and over again Curt swore to himself, “I’m going to get off this island!” If he could not walk or fly or paddle away, he at least could swim away. But they could not abandon Ralph. To take Ralph with them they would have to get a boat, and the only chance of doing that was for one of them to swim over to the mainland camp after dark and try to steal a canoe. He himself would have to go. Paul could not; like most men born be- side the cold waters of the north, he could hardly swim at all. “Besides our own lives,” he add- ed, “there’s Ralph to be considered. It we have a canoe, we can drop down to the Iskitimwah mouth in The water was numbing cold at first. twenty-four hours, and in six more we'll be up at old John’s lake. If Smash is waiting there, as he ought to be, we can have Ralph over on the Pacific Coast, in the hospital at Prince Rupert, in thirty-six hours.” Paul glanced acrost that mile of icy slapping water. “You'd stand one chance in twenty-five of getting pver to that camp and one in a hundred of stealing a canoe without getting killed.” “But if I don’t go, we don’t stand any chance at all. As soon as it gets dark enough I'm going. It had better be tonight; tomorrow night will only find us weaker.” The slight hope of getting away or at least of doing something be- sides waiting helplessly heartened them a little. Curt happened to re- member about Ralph's har.d-line the previous evening and went looking. for it. A small chub was on the line when Curt pulled it in. He cut the chub into bait, threw the line out, caught a gray trout and half a dozen mullets. They scorched the fish over a little wisp of fre and had their first meal in thirty hours, ‘WILIGHT came earlier than usu- al, for the sky was still clouded. ‘They walked up to the north tip, and Curt stripped for his swim. The lake still ran wild with whitecaps. He shook bands with Paul, waded out and started for the near island, The water was numbing cold at first, but he struck up a vigorous pace that kept the chill out of his blood. In twenty minutes he raised his head and saw a spruce islet, his Sirst stop, not far in front of him. At about that same time he heard a distant guarded shout. It sounded like Paul calling to him. He halted, Ustened, beard nothing more, and swam on. A minute later four shots came rolling across the Iake. The pecullar sequence of them — —-— stopped him short, It was a signal between him and Paul; they had used it a dozen times to summon each other. He turned around and headed back for the camp island. Seventy-five yards off the lower tip, he made out two men standing at the wave edge. Nearer, he recog: uized Paul, and caw a cance drawal. i up on the sand. Thoroughly myst fied, he swam in, struck bottom and waded ashore. Paul came running to meet him, bringing his clothes. “Partner! It’s Tenn-Og! He fetch- ed us @ canoe!” “Wha-aa-tt?” “He came just as soon as it was dark enough that the others wouldn’t see him. If you don’t belfeve me, there’s the boat and there he is!” “What's the idea?” “He says he met Sonya over at their camp just after the fight last night, and she told him to bring us @ boat.” “Humph! LeNoir’s using him to bait some deadfall for us. Let's find out what his game is.” He dressed quickly, walked over to Tenn-Og, nodded to him. “It's a surprise to see you, friend. So you brought us @ canoe. That's fine! But why?” Tenn-Og pointed to his forehead and shoulder wounds, as a reminder that the white strangers had once helped him. “Is the white girl over there at the camp?” Curt asked. She had left last night, Tenn-Og said. LeNoir had started her north to the white man in charge of three dependable guides. “Wasn't it you last evenin;,” Curt inquired sardonically, “who led those three canoes down at the north tip of this island?” ‘ENN-OG admitted leading the canoes. But, he added, at the right moment he had pulled his men out of the fight by shouting to them that the whites were killing the other Klosohees. When he backed off, it had broken up those plans. Curt studied the dusky face sharp- ly. It was the most impassive face he had ever met with, as unreadable as a granite mask. Tenn-Og’s ex Planation did fit circumstance, the whole story sounded plausible enough; but still he did not quite believe it, “Siam-Klale and LeNoir have cooked up something for us,” he told Paul. “They want to get it over with in a hurry, so they're using this fellow to trap us with. Well, they've got another guess coming! And in the meantime we've got ~ canoe!” Curt inspected the craft. It was a twenty-foot birchbark, large enough for five or six people. The Indian had also brought three extra pad- dies, sleeping robes for the four of them, and food—several pounds of caribou jerky and two large roasted fish wrapped in leaves. That tempt- ing food made Curt suspicious. “We'd better stay away from it, Paul. LeNolr is an artist with poison, and it'd be like him to salt grub with strychnine and send it to us.” All thoughts of going on after Karakhan had dropped out of his mind, Sonya could go on, if she wanted to, and Karakhan could get ‘away, It had to be. Ralph’s life came first, They picked up the canoe, took it nearer the barricade, and floated it, After making a bed of the sleep- ing robes, they carried galph over and laid him in. Curt shoved away, unwordably thankful to see the last of that unlucky island, “Have your friends got canoes out on the lake tonight, watching for us?” he asked Tenn-Og, “Go that way,” Tenn-Og pointed west, “No canoes there.” He did not argue or try to persuade, but merely pointed and stated facts.
