Celebrate Birthday Of First President ‘With appropriate songs, stories and Poems the grade pupils of Wachter school Thursday observed Washing- ‘ton's birthday. The following pro- §Tam was offered: Salute of the Flag, all; patriotic Bongs, Little George Washington, America the Beautiful and Star Spangled Banner, all; poem, George ‘Washington, all; stories. Washington end the Hatchet, Ralph Rosenberg; ‘Washington and the Colt, Leila Ca- mota and Leonard Webster; Review of ‘Washington's Life, all. The third and fourth grade pupils ‘were the guests of the fifth and sixth graders, at a Washington program. Ten boys enacted the play “Coasting Days in Old Boston.” Pupils to Take Part In Civics Research Bismarck schools have been invit- ed to cooperate with the Civics Re- search institute of Washington, D. C., in 8 study of civics, as taught in pub- lic schools. The purpose of the re- search is to awaken interest in the subject, and to prepare courses de- signed to develop in the pupil the desire and the ability to take part in the affairs of government. One hun- dred fifty schools in the United States will participate in this work. One class of pupils in Bismarck will be selected to carry on the study and will be in charge of Miss Gert- rude Evarts of the Will junior high school. This class will operate as a civics club and will develop, through practical demonstration. the material and projects furnished by the Re- search institute. o a le a | Weather Report | UP cates FORECAST For Bismarck and vicinity: Light snow tonight; Sunday partly cloudy; continued cold.

POLITICIANS It is reported but unverified that C. 8. Ladd, laboratory director for the state regulatory department, recently was fired for two days as a result of his refusal to come through with five per cent for The Leader fund. Finally, so the story goes, he saw the light and agreed to “kick in.” The thing might be verified except for the fact that lads who are put on the pan in this connection hesitate to talk about it for fear their indis- cretion might cause them to be severed from the payroll. Practically all of them have families to support and need their money—including the five Per cent of which they are being mulcted—and The Searchlight has no desire to put any of them up against the buzs saw of official displeasure. Ladd, it seems, has regarded himself as a professional man, not inter- ested in politics. His father once was United States Senator but the son has never been active in politics and has kept aloof from such matters. He is said to have felt that his position as a technician should absolve him of any obligation to The Leader fund, but his bosses felt otherwise. ‘When the thing came to a head, Ladd is said to have been fired for a period of two days before he weakened. WERE THE BALLOT BOXES STUFFED? Anti-Langer forces in the Bismarck Nonpartisan ranks are charging that ballot boxes were stuffed by their opponents at the recent precinct meetings to select delegates to the county convention. Employes of the highway department were bluntly told that unless their names were on the lists of those attending the precinct conventions ae, would not appear on the department's next payroll. All took the Some from this and other departments came with neatly typewritten slips of paper, showing the convention delegates of their choice. In most cases they were given more than one slip and in some cases they deposited both slips in the ballot box, a system of political mathematics which .the “anti's” found it hard to beat. Thus did “the people” give expression to their will. Another interesting thing was the character of the persons who took part in the various precinct meetings. In some bankers appeared, mar- shaled in Langer’s phalanxes. To others came people doing business with and selling things to the state, intent on “protecting their pork chops.” Hardly a one appeared who was not on the payroll or whose financial in- terest in the success of the Langer administration could not be easily traced. TRE SITUATION I8 NOT YET CLEAR Much to-do has been made by some papers of a letter sent) by Senator Gerald P. Nye to Lieutenant Governor O. H. Olson in which he expressed moh that the convention at Valley City would not be a pasrol] gath- e A large part of the senator's popularity is based on his battles against corruption in political affairs and corruption in office, and careful note was made of his attitude. The inference was that he was taking an indirect dig at the Langer machine which had sent payrollers out to line up the, a each precinct or, if this was impossible, to steal the show by main The Nye attitude may be greatly clarified before the votes are cast at the June primary. It is no secret that he feels the Langer administration has put the League “over the barrel” by its thinly-concealed grafts and its attitude of win at all costs. If and when that clarification comes it will bring no joy to the Langer cohorts. WHAT OF THE OTHERS? WELL, LET’S SEE Since the big Nonpartisan bust-up considerable interest centers on the Probable attitude of our Washington delegation as the time for battle nears. This is highly uncertain, but here is the situation as it appears now: 1, None of them has an active desire to get into the battle if he can avoid it. The three who will be up for reelection this year want to get reelected. That isa practical consideration. Principle doesn’t enter into it. 2. None of the three—Senator Frazier and Congressmen Sinclair and Lemke—Is definitely committed to either of the two League factions. They have done a single-minded job of keeping themselves off the spot. 3. Of the three, Senator Frazier seems most likely to be a Langer sup- porter, and this despite all the mean things Langer said about him in that governorship campaign in 1920. 4. Of the three, Frazier seems most likely to face hard sledding before this political year is over. His inaction and his inability to do anything definite for the state have not helped him either with the farmer or the city man. Not even his best friends present him as a man of outstanding ability. 5. Lemke, rather than Sinclair, will make the most desperate effort to keep from committing himself, this despite his natural tendency to speak out in meeting. He is said to have told friends privately that anyone who tried to put him on the spot could “go to hell.” Strong language that, but it sounds like Bill. 6. Sinclair has known for some time that the Langer folks would like | to put his head in the basket. Naturally the most cautious of our ‘Wash- ington quartet, he may have to take a definite stand in self-defense. | THE DEMOCRATS ARE WARNED—AND PAINED | Democrats are looking pained these days as a result of warnings that \the Langer crowd may attempt to “rig” their convention at Minot. Their | leaders say such a thing is impossible, but in their hearts they know. better. ‘There are so many new Democrats that the leaders cannot identify riany of them. Hence there is opportunity for a bit of fast work at the Demo- cratic county meetings at which delegates to the Minot convention will be selected. | The call sent out by the Democratic state central committee provides | for no precinct meetings. The job will be done in county gatherings. ‘That | may or may not help in any effort to run a shenanigan. | County representation at the Minot meeting is awarded the Missourt |Slope as follows: Burleigh 10, Dunn 3, Emmons 4, Golden Valley 2, Grant 3. Hettinger 2, Kidder 2, Logan 3, McIntosh 3, McKenzie 2, McLean 4, Mercer 2. Morton 7, Mountrail 2, Sheridan 2, Stark 7, Adams, Bowman, Oliver and Sioux, one each. NOT A DOUBLE QUARTET BUT A CHORUS ‘The Searchlight, it seems, was slightly in error when it presented the Lefor double quartet of payrollers to the gaze of an admiring—and perhaps Jealous—public. It isn't a quartet. It is a chorus. The additional members are those of the Krier family, related to the Lefors by marriage and all of them beneficiaries of “Uncle Adam's” largesse. Not to mention the long-suffering taxpayer. Just how many Kriers are on the payroll has not yet been determined but it seems there are several. The lads who are interested in getting at the facts have “sicced” their hounds on the trail and expect to come up with the dope before long. When and if it becomes available to us we will give: it to the public. Meanwhile we hasten to correct the impression that there are only eight of the Lefor tribe on the payroll. GEORGE BANGS GAINS PROMINENCE George Bangs. erstwhile Grand Forks lawyer and capitol commussioner a ‘ now president of the United Mutual Life Insurance company of Indian- apolis, Ind., has become one of the leading cpponents of a bill which would permit municipalities to take “the cure” offered to individuals under the bankruptcy lews. His brief against the proposed law has been sent to all daily newspapers as part of a publicity campaign. It is bolstered by a statement of H. L. Ekern, speaking for the national fraternal congress. and one by Charles M. flay, city counselor for St. Louis, described as “a solvent city.” “Insurance companies have invested in many municipal obligations. So have the insurance SepasHpents of many Solera cepa cies which can pay their bills say the proposed legislation wi m weakening the credit of all communities. All contend that permission: of municipal bankruptey would condone the wastefuiness and inefficiency of many city governments which need nothing more than a good lesson to wake them up. WELL, THE RASCALS DECEIVED US ‘The hie s taken serenely fe bas ine week by The Leader, Governor Langer's newspaper, 3 “In its tireless campaign to wreck the Nonpartisan League, there is no trick to which The Bismarck Tribune will not stoop. One of its latest, lowest. and cheapest, was its effort last week to confuse Bis- marck Nonpartisans as to the time of their precinct meetings. In this instance, The Tribune relegated to the background its news- paper function to inform the public, and set out deliberately instead to mis-inform.” A ‘Them’s hard statements, brother, but it seems that we were the victims of a fraud with which we had nothing to do. Also, it seems worse than the pot calling the kettle black, because The Leader a know what the Lengerites are doing than is The printed the first call for precinct meetings issued committee. It was not advised of the second. Meanwhile, what about this: In its issue of Feb. 8 The Leader carried on partisan conventions, issued by C. N. Lee as secretary tive committee, the ‘meetings at 2 p. m. On page 8 of same issue it carried a call for precinct meetings issued by the Langer-controlled county committee.

The government fired a double-bar- reled charge at the manifestants dur- ing the night, with the announcement that Prime Minister MacDonald would not see them and by arresting two leaders. One of the marchers’ chief aims was to see MacDonald. Tom Man, septuagenarian Com- munist, and Harry Pollitt, his 40-year- old colleague, were arrested, charged with uttering seditious statements. They were to have joined spell- binders slated to speak simultaneous- ly from eight platforms at a gigantic tally in Hyde Park Sunday.

Editor, Tribune: ; Somehow our sympathies have al- ways been with the elder son in the parable of “The Prodigal Son,” and not with the prodigal. He kept toiling in his father's fields while his brother wasted his substance in riotous living, yet, when he had squandered his pat- rimony, he was welcomed home by his father with open arms and the fatted jealf. the highest honor that could be bestowed, was killed. Well. it seems to us that Is exactly what is being done by Uncle Sam in his relations to his children. The government is seen in the role of the father, the thrifty las the elder brother, and the thrfit- less as the prodigal. While there is no gainsaying the fact that in many, many cases those receiving the government's bounty are worthy, in many, many other cases, had they emulated the ant instead of {the grasshopper they would have not ‘been in their present distressful con- {dition, largely brought upon them- selves by waste and extravagance. But, after all, what has been the reward of the thrifty? Have they {been dealt with as they deserved or jotherwse? , We need not go far to find the an- ;swer. In every c@se on record we j find the thrifty penalized and the | Wastrels Today. the gov- t }ernment is engaged in feeding not the livestock of the farmer, but the live- stock of the bankers. Because if a jfarmer has any means of getting ad- jditional credit he is compelled to use jit. If he has any equity at all in his ilivestock he must borrow to the ut- most farthing, while the man who has no equity at all in his property is | Solution te Previous Contract Problem By WM. E. McKENNEY Secretary, American Bridge League Never take it for granted that a suit is going to break for-you. If you have a safer play, try that first, al- ways leaving the hoped-for “good breaks” as a last resort. Perhaps in the meantime your op- ponents will accommodate you with @ satisfactory discard or with definite information that will show you an- other play. Some players, over the two hearts bid, might think the South hand strong enough to jump to three spades. However, I prefer the conservative re- sponse of two spades. As soon as North bids three dia- monds, however—showing a second suit—South has a fit in diamonds and a control in hearts, and immediately should invite the slam with a bid of four spades. North, with his singleton club and three spades, can go to six spades— to go to five is asking his partner to assume the responsibility. However, few players can resist the Daplicate—E. and} W. vul.

We believe this is the chief reason why farmers who still have an equity in thier personal property are finding their banker creditors unwilling to scale down their debts. These men must pay to the last cent with high interest rates added for good measure. And we will soon find out that when livestock prices come back to what they should be, it will be the banks and not the farmers who will reap the reward. In the parable, the prodigal son took his patrimony to a far country and wasted it in riotous living. When the famine came he was without money and without friends. Let us compare that picture with the one we have painted today. Good times meant high wages. High wages were earned and went as fast as they came. Nothing was saved for a time of need. Finally the famine (depres- ston) came and there was no more work. Times became worse and worse. Uncle Sam had to step in and feed them else they perish. Thus we have the picture of the thriftiess, Now, let us look upon the elder brother (the thrifty). These people are also to be found in all classes of industry. They did not spend every cent they got hold of. They built up the country and took care of the schools. They were the builders, not the wreckers. Surely their portion should not have been defeat. They had given their best and thev deserved no less of their country. On them. too, the depression fell. Banks in which they had deposited their money closed by the thousands. Farmers found their farms and per- sonal property worth less than one- fourth what they had originally paid for them. These farmers, too, were in debt, but not so deeply but what they still had an equity in their property, but an equity that was swiftly vanish- ing under such unfair conditions. ‘Today these men, too, are in need, but. because they still have a small equity in their property, they are de- nied any help from the government. Because they have paid their taxes (and God knows they were needed to keep open the little country schools) the government has refused them any work on relief projects. This has {been the “reward” of the thirfty—a |stone given in place of the asked-for morsel of bread. These farmers see the thriftless man who has moved from farm to farm. getting deeper and deeper in {debt through his own carelessness, land his family being cared for by the government. This man still has his cattie and other livestock, fed at gov- ernment expense. Banks won't take them under such conditions. He is able to get work on relief projects at more than good wages. Pensonally we feel that there would not have been so much competition on these projects had a wage been set much lower than what was decided upon. Work done at government ex- pense is vastly different, according to our notion, than that paid for by pri- vate industries—and a wage scale should have been set accordingly. We think two dollars per day for labor and two dollars and a half for man and team would have been plenty— considering the money came out of the people's pockets. Then the work would have lasted longer under the original amount set aside for such work—and there might not have been such a rush and scramble to get on such projects as there was. country to the other and look over these government projects—and you will find the laborers are largely made up of “prodigal sons”—men who did not save when they had a chance. Farm- ers who had to have every new con- traption that came upon the market. Men who squandered and still squan- der every penny they make for hooch turn to the “elder sons,” the folks we not one but a thousand ways. the parable rebuked his father for what he felt to be base ingratitude toward him, and that he felt he was getting far from a square deal? We think that if the “old man” had met the prodigal with a barrel slat it would have taught a more wholesome lesson to our young folks who think they can get by without earning their bread by the sweat of their brow.
