Good for the Soul Confession that a Communistic ele- ‘ment has been active in Bismarck is! contained in a public announcement offered to The Tribune by B. G Drennen on behalf of a temporary committee formed with the purpose of reorganizing the Bismarck Un- employed Council. The resolution offered to this news- taper for publication reads in part: “Whereas, there has been an insistent demand on the part of a large number of members of the Bismarck Unemployed Council that we withdraw and form a new organization, independent of the Communistic - sponsored council that we have been affillated with in the past; “Consequently a meeting was held on Sunday, Feb. 4, at the Bismarck Central Trades and Labor hall and the following ac- tion was taken: “Temporary officers were elect- ed and it was decided to form a club, to be known as the Bur- leigh Labor Club, a home-made club of local men who will, to the best of their ability, serve local needs, “It is the intention of this club to divorce the Communistic mem- bers and make them sail out in the open where everyone will know them for what they are, to force them out from behind the masses of needy people they have hidden behind in the past. “The committee on by-laws was instructed to draw up a constitu- tion and by-laws and present them to the club at its next regu- lar meeting, which will be held at the Labor Hall next Sunday at 2 p.m.” | Thus is disclosed to anyone inter-) ested a situation which long has been} plain to many persons and which] others have suspected. A good many of the “demands” and vigorous de- nunciations with which we have been assailed in the past by this organiza-| tion have clearly been ill-advised and} some of them have had the appear- ance of being in bad faith. If not inspired by Communistic propaganda they at least smacked of that origin. Persons with knowledge of the facts hesitated to disclose the truth for fear that such charges, made openly, would cast a certain discredit upon a large number of well-inten- tioned persons who were affiliated with the Unemployed Council. They ‘were pressed by circumstances and facing a situation in which there was no immediate comfort and little hope for the future. It would only have made the situation worse to point the finger at them. There was the fur- ther fact, too, that it is no one’s else business if a man wants to be a Communist as long as he does not attempt to force others into agree- ment with him or try to upset the government by force. If the time ever comes when Com- munism becomes a better argument than our present system, we are on ‘the way to trying it, no matter what forces are arrayed in the defense. ‘The best defense against Communism 4s not arbitrary and restrictive laws but the sound common sense of our people. It is that common sense which now 4s coming to the surface in the unem- polyed council. A good many of our residents have been treated to more liberal doses of “Red” propaganda than many of us imagine. That they have rejected it, finally, is one of the best possible proofs that things are improving. y Clear Thinking Needed One of the impending battles in congress relates to the so-called ad- justment of veterans’ benefits and the nation will need a great deal of clear thinking, both at Washington and at home, if this matter 1s to be decided fairly. ‘ At the beginning of this long war- fare, which has been going on for more than 10 years, the veterans were who believed payments to the war veterans were eating up too much of the national income. Historically, g¢he matter is purely political and probably always will be, though it concerns the welfare 50|and they are always hopeful that the |program suggested and those who have given any and every veteran a, key to the treasury and told him to) help himself. AS a result of this situation, there grew up the abuses which eventually caused the collapse of a top-heavy machine, A veteran who came out of the army in better shape than he went into it was granted a pension if he ruptured himself in a lifting contest at the county fair. If a vet- eran of the late war, having imbibed @ little too freely, fell downstairs and -injured an arm, he was a proper subject for the government's largesse. All that was changed by the econ- omy act, and it was a good thing. Representatives of various veterans’ organizations say it was @ good thing, |too, but their voices aren't very loud men who were lopped off the pension rolls will not hear them. One of the difficulties of the whole business is that of getting at the facts) both with regard to the cost of any will benefit under it. When these questions are raised, we have prompt and bitter dispute on the part of some veterans’ representatives with the facts and figures adduced by gov- ernment officials. Working on the well-known prin- ciple that there are two sides to every question, it appears that at least some, if not a large part, of the how!| about reducing veterans’ benefits comes from men who never had any real claim on the government in the! first place; that the aim of at least some of the veterans’ organizations is to restore the old abuses. It is equally clear that many battle casualties have been ill-treated. Men who were maimed or crippled have) an inescapable claim upon their gov- ernment. Any attempt to dodge it is reprehensible. | We have, then, a condition in which the right course seems to be a SAY, BROTHER— COULD YOU SPARE ANOTHER BILLION MONTAS FOR A FEW middle ground, Every disabled vet-) eran should get generous treatment.

By RODNEY DUTCHER (Tribune Washington Correspondent) Washington, Feb. 7.—Scores of gov- ernment workers do nothing but an- swer hundreds of thousands of letters addressed to President Roosevelt. They're scattered through federal tofers mail in bales. Denver wrote to “Dear Beloved Presi- dent of all the American People,” his letter was shunted to Public Works. This was a boy who had been ill six years, had had three operations and needed another, and had been taken to Denver by his mother because his iliness required it. His father had to stay in Pitts- burgh with a $22 a week job, which was what made Jack miserable. Couldn't Mr. Roosevelt help him get a job in Denver? The White House rubber-stamped the letter: “Respecfully referred for acknowledgment and consideration.” Jack was answered in the name of Executive Officer Philip B.

HULL HAD BRIGHT IDEA The secret of Secretary Hull's as- wemshing popular: at the Latin- American congress came back with the delegation as it returned from Montevideo, On his first day in Uruguay, Hull set out to make personal calls on heads of tha 20 other delegations. No secretary of state ever thought of that before. Some Hispano-American diplomats were in their baths and others still in bed when they received the surprise announcement: “The secretary of state of the United States.” But they were all so tickled that Hull beame the darling of the con- ference.
