Stealing Misery Money How extensively the federal gov- ernment has plunged into the task of keeping its pledge that this win- ter should not be like the last is proved by figures from the state civil works administration. To date $1,641,420 has been poured {nto the state from this source alone and the payroll for the current week will total more than $500,000. That is substantial money by anyone's reckoning and North Dakota is more than glad to get it. To put it bluntly, it is just about a life saver to many @ family and many a business. Some would have got through without this help but others unquestionably would have fallen by the wayside. ‘This fact makes all the more repre- hhensible the various efforts to play politics with this situation or to steal from the CWA administration. Dis- trict Attorney P. W. Lanier, when he ‘was here early in the week to swear out a warrant for two CWA workers ‘accused of padding the payroll, re- and @ dipper—that was all there was to it. Nowadays the process is both sim- pler and more complex. It’s simpler, in that all he does is turn on a faucet and let the water run out of its own accord. It’s more complex in that the faucet won't work unless behind it there is an intricate framework of reservoirs, —|pumping stations, aqueducts, filter- ing plants, bond issues, tax bills and the like. The citizen, in other words, has gained simplicity at the cost of great complexity. He needs to expend only an infinitesimal amount of energy to get what he needs; but he needs, at the same time, to be a member of a society which is very closely inte- grated, a society disciplined and co- hesive, in which cooperative effort for the common good is a necessity which never is forgotten. By becoming a member of such society, he forfeits a measure of his individual freedom. Yet it is futile for him to want to go back. The dip- per-and-cistern days are as irretriev- able as the stagecoach era, And even if the citizen could ex- change what he now has for those old days of “freedom,” it would be a bad bargain. We have to find our freedom today through cooperation and not through individual achievement. It is there, all right, if we go after it right; and it eventually will prove more solid and lasting than the freedom of the old era of simplicity, Style Under Communism One of the most revealing little stories to come out of Soviet Russia recently was that telling how Rus- sian women are demanding a new deal in the matter of clothing. Under Communism, the state cloth- ing trust has striven to give the citi- zens clothing that will be durable and comfortable, but it has paid no at- tention whatever to style. Pride in one’s appearance seems to be a hallmark of the bourgeois attitude. The citizen of a Communist state, one gathers, has no business worrying about his or her looks, But now the people of Russia, and especially the women, are getting tired of clothes that are like an end- less series of drab uniforms. They are demanding style, snap, decent ferred to it as stealing “misery money.” The term probably is not original ‘with him, since it has been used be- fore, but it aptly expresses the situa- tion. If ever there was such a thing as “misery money” it is that which is going now to the relief of the poor and destitute. Men who steal from this fund should be prosecuted to the full ex- tent of the law. Politicians wha tamper with it, should be put on trial in the court! of public opinion and, when con- victed, consigned to the oblivion which such actions so justly deserve. We Need Some Like Them Whatever the outcome, the Mon- tana house of representatives is to be congratulated on its action in in- quiring into the doings of two state officials and in prosecuting the issue to the point of impeachment. ‘The action is all the more remark- able in that the majority in the state legislative body is of the same po- litical party as the officials accused. Unquestionably there are things in the background which we, at this dis- tance, do not understand, but the fact which stands out most promi- mently, particularly to North Dako- tans, is that the legislature is truly exercising its function and not being dominated by the executive branch of the state government, Tt is to be presumed that Mon- tena’s governor has as many jobs to, promise as did North Dakota’s gov- ernor and that, in an emergency, he would not be loth to do so, It is obvious, however, that if such promises were made they failed to hhave quite the same effect as was evident at our last legislative session. ‘The state of North Dakota could do worse, at its next election, than ‘to send to its senate and house some Montana-type legislators—and this regardless of who may be governor.

Purified Prohibition Prohibition forces, calling the roll in their shattered ranks after the disastrous defeat of 1933, find that they still have much to be thankful for. Bishop Ernest G. Richardson, head of the Anti-Saloon League, points out that there still are 25 dry states, and adds that there are ex- tensive dry territories in practically all the wet states. Whether this dry area will be ex- tended or diminished in the near fu- ture is wholly a matter for guess- work. But viewing the whole prob- lem in the light of the last decade's experience, one is inclined to believe that prohibition today, in the areas where it does exist, is on a much sounder basis than was the case prior to repeal of the 18th amendment, Editorial Comment Editorials printed below show the trend of thought by other editors.

He is cautious in discussing trade Possibilities, admitting them, but not neglecting to stress difficulties, such as Soviet unwillingness to contract more than it can pay for and Rus- sia’s traditional unfavorable balance cf trade with this country. He began studying English two years ago, now searches carefully for words, and always finds the right ones, though he speaks of “beezness” and the “five years plan.” ‘WHO'S AFRAID OF THE DE- MODEX FOLLICULCRUM?

But he had reached the limit of human endur- ance, and the shock of finding him- self hopelessly stranded through Smash’s truancy, pushed him over the limit. Stumbling ander a pine tree, he slumped down, almost in a collapse, and dropped into the merci- ful oblivion of sleep. Tenn-Og began looking around the cabin, reading signs—a crushed nettle, footprints, a broken twig with wilted leaves. He announced Presently that Smash had not been there yesterday or the day before that. He had left three days ago. To sit around and watch the sky for a plane that did not come was more than Paul could bear. Wisely “he kept himself busy. While Tenn- Og went down the shore to a small stream where ptarmigan were chort- ng among the cloudberry thickets, he drew out the cance and gummed it, freshened up the musty cabin and chopped a dead jackpine into fire- wood. When Tenn-Og came back with three ptarmigan, he cleaned and dressed the birds, cooked them, and prepared a meal, Near seven o'clock Curt woke up. Paul bad supper ready, but Curt could not force himself to eat, The thought of Sonya drawing nearer and nearer that headwaters lake sent him tramping the landwash again in distraction. Paul and Tenn-Og made a two pronged javelin, hardened the points {n the fire; and went down to a rock jut to spear trout. As Curt turned once, he saw they had stopped fish- ing and were listening intently, look- Ing around the horizon. A few moments later he caught & faraway hum, faint as a mos quito’s song. It seemed to come from nowhere in particular; but it rapidly grew louder, deeper, and changed to a throaty drone. He lo- cated its direction, due south, and whirled to look. Out above a lofty range hove a glistening speck, shining in the slant evening sun. Curt stood rooted in his tracks, afraid that the growing speck was a delusion and might vanish, But it came on and on, till at last he distinguished the lines of his plane. For him that glistening plane had all the splendor of a delivering an- gel. From its height of ten thousand feet it glided down and down, banked over the lake, leveled off, touched and came taxying shore- ward, ‘The three leaped into their canoe and darted out to meet it, As they swung around the pro- Peller and clambered upon a pon- toon, Smabh opened a panel and flipped his cigarette into the water. “Hullo!

Tenn-Og kept looking out of the panel windows on each side, trying’ desperately to guide the flight. Inj the deep valleys under keel twilight was already gathering; the visib: ity was made still poorer by pearly-gray haze that came driftinj down from some forest fire in th Yukon country.

At last he touched Curt’s arm and! pointed twenty-odd miles east at two lordly cloud-wrapped mountains. “Sunali and Dinaggwah,” he saids| and he indicated that on the other! side of them lay the headwaters lake. Curt studied the giant twins care- fally. He had to get down on that lake unheard and unseen, for at the slightest hint of a plane in that country Karakhan would escape in his own ship, and they had no gas to follow. If the plane could climb high enough, he could cut off the engine and glide those twenty-five miles to the lake and so get there unheard, But to reach it without being seen. was a harder problem, calling for all the flying skill he had. There was a flock of clouds swirling around! the two giants and filling the pass between them. If ho could keep be- hind some big cloud on his approach, and fly through the pass by instru- ments, he would come out on the shadow side of Sunali. It would be twilight there and the plane would! hardly be visible a mile away, H= PUT the plane into a steep circling climb.
