Not All Fumbles It is natural that President Roo- sevelt and his New Deal should be singled out for bitter criticism as the! congressional elections approach. Now| is the accepted time for surges of| sound and fury. But will an un- bridled attack on the Roosevelt po-| Jicies in toto pay from a political standpoint? Hardly. There are weak spots— many of them—in the New Deal, be- cause the emergency of millions of} hungry men, women and children) called for desperate remedies. There ‘was no time to weigh cause and effect | as carefully as usually is possible.| People were crying for bread and ‘work and such a situation had to be! met. | No doubt politicians profited. Money has been squandered. But that is not solely characteristic of the Democratic or Republican par- ties. Before us, too, for judgment are the records of some of the Hoo- ver commissions—the farm board and other activities which, if they do not resemble impinge closely upon some) of the remedies which President Roo- éevelt has been trying out. | Here in the rural sections as well) as in industrial centers, the applica- tion of federal, state and local relief ‘was imperative. First aid had to be rushed quickly to the victims and it ‘was done in that way through a very loosely fabricated administration. This picture must be kept in mind; always in assuming a critical atti- tude to the strictly humanitarian features of the New Deal. When the policies of currency, of public works, and of recimentation of farmers and industries are considered as perma- nent governmental features, then a wide field of discussion expands in which there always will be decidedly different opinions. Warring students of different schools of economics will quarrel and fulminate over the theor- ies of Wallace and Tugwell as long as time itself. But it must be remem- bered, too, that some of the things which Secretaries Wallace and Tug- ‘well are seeking to do have been re- commended by the department of) agriculture under several administra- tions. This is clearly set forth in a re- cent address of Mr. Tugwell before the New York Bankers association in the following excerpt: But it remained for the ope- ration of the federal farm board “to reveal the full extent of the surplus problem. Secretary Arthur M. Hyde, in his 1930 re- port, wrote: “One aspect of the - farm problem overshadows all others, Production ... is out of balance with the market and sur- pluses pile up continuously... . Our difficulty is not a sudden emergency but a cumulative over- production.... I want to em- Phasize the need for equitable, in- telligent, systematic and collec- tive action (notice that word “collective”) to bring supply into better relationship with demand. ... The answer to overproduc- tion is less production.’ Again in 1931 Secretary Hyde wrote: “American agriculture must adjust itself to a declining export trade. As things stand, this need will persist, no matter how favorably matters develop in Europe, because our production is overexpanded in relation to Europe's wants.... This is a Policy of constructive adjustment to a radically changing market situation.” Looking back over the period I have been describing, it seems as if the logic of events led in- evitably up to the Agricultural Every secretary collapse im farm prices... .” Secretary William M. Jardine recognized the surplus as the cen- tral difficulty.

There has never been a time that called for clearer or more independent thought than the present. Not all is evil that is coming out of Washington, Good Republican strategy would be to give some credit where credit is due. But that may be asking too much of the rather Tory leadership which feebly asserts itself in con- gress these days as far as the min- jority opposition is concerned. Aerial Crossroads Bismarck’s strategic position in the .99|*ffairs of the northwest is again proved by the decision of the post- Office department to designate this city as the northern terminal for a north-south airline, which will ex- tend into South Dakota. The effect will be to make the Capi- tal City an aerial cross roads, with all the potentialities which that fact entails, and to reopen a line of travel which has been practically closed for more than a generation, At the beginning, of course, all travel through this country was by boat, the Missouri being the great na- tural artery of commerce. Thus in the early days, North and South Da- | kota were closely linked. Then, with the coming of the rail- roads, the direction shifted from east to west but contact was maintained by means of the overland route to the Black Hills. ‘When this finally disappeared there came a time when North Dakota had little in common with her sister state To most of our people she was far- jther away, in a travel sense, than was Wisconsin. 8o pronounced had become this at- titude that, when good roads came into being, there were few improved highways between the two states, whereas efforts were concentrated on the east-west routes. Even now, this condition has not been wholly overcome. But the creation of a North-South airline is a step in the direction of restoring these twin sisters in the galaxy of states to their old position of comradeship. With modern pianes it will be only a matter of an hour or two between Bismarck and Sioux Falls. The northward extension of such a line, at least to Minot, may be taken for granted, for it is an in- evitable step.

Test Tube Babies (Helen Welshimer in NEA Service) | Is sex necessary? Some people always said it wasn’t, but we thought they were just being mean. Now it seems they win. It isn’t. It’s just an antiquated custom. Still, it got us where we are. But that isn't the point. Recent jdisclosures the other day that a |Woman may now have a baby by @ |father whom she has never seen out- dates the force that was once consid- jered as motivating as—as . . . Well, jit was its own comparison. There are {mo others, Sex is just a quaint old- {fashioned practice in which our fore- bears indulged. Future generations may consider it as useless as the ap- | pendix or our tonsils. Surgery’s new method requires @ woman for impregnation. A woman and a test tube, containing the male sperm. That's all. The synthetic baby, so we are told, will be as plump and pretty as the offspring of a na- tural insemination. The poor planning of our social system has reduced us to a lot of makeshifts. But a test tube for a father? Well, it may be satisfactory but we venture to guess that a flesh and blood father would win the vote of any child. A father who was mere- ly something in a test tube can’t help &@ boy play marbles or hit a homer lor tell him just where to sock the big boy down the alley so he'll lay him out the next time the bigger kid wants to fight. The mother complex is strong in women. They must have something to love. The present economic set- up has made marriage impossible fi- nancially for many men, at the same time that it has given many women financial independence which per- mits them to rear their own families. According to the method of artificial impregnation, these women may now have children without discomfort or disgrace. They need never know who the accommodating male was. The men can be paid for it, too. With the money they can buy roses and bonbons and perfumes for old-fash- joned women who take their kisses straight. There is a possibility, if you look toward the future—and that, accord- ing to the psychologists, the educators, and other public-minded citizens, is where we should look—that we may eventually become a woman’s world. Perhaps some day only the prize males will be permitted to live. Not because anybody loves them either! But because they must be nurtured tenderly that they may be the fathers of the test tube progeny.

Coryza is acute inflammation of the lining of the nose, attended usually with con- gestion, stuffing up of the nose, per- haps some soreness at the back of the throat, sneezing, running at the nose, perhaps more or less headache or general wretchedness (malaise) and slight feverishness, redness of the eyes, perhaps temporary fullness, or muffling of the ears.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Boy Needs a Better Break Would cigarettes harm a boy of 18 years old? I am 5 feet 7 inches tall and am very thin. (A. P.) Answer—Tobacco in any form is bad medicine for the undeveloped youth. Open air life and rigorous physical training, such as young men received in the army camps, would be a fine thing for you. Read the autobio- graphy of Theodore Roosevelt. He was weak and sickly at your age. Leave Left-Handedness Alone Should a teaeher try to make a righthanded boy out of a left-handed one? He had a rather hard time in his first term in school—the teacher insisted on him learning to write with his right hand, but he still does (O. J. N.) Answer—No, I should not interfere if he were my son. Nature knows best. Consult Back Files You state that medication is not absorbed thru the skin. Then how do you account for the use of Ung. Hy- drarg, (blue ointment, mercury salve) as an inunction? (Pharmacist). Answer—If the intention is to ob- tain the systemic effects of mercury, the reason the doctor prescribes the benefit of grade school children. Donna Jean Davis opened the mu- sical program with a piano solo and George Shafer, Jr., accompanied by Miss Davis, sang ® solo. Accom- panied by Miss Alice Knowles, Miss Frances Frahm played a violin solo. Miss Marjorie Hawley also sang a solo, accompanied by Miss Davis, and Bernard Flaherty and Miss Gladys Risem played piano duet. ‘These musicians were place-win- ners in the recent district high achool | contests here and some will compete for state championships at the Uni- versity of North Dakota later this month, A.

In recent years General Scott had ‘been a member of the board of Indian commissioners. Resolutions also were adopted ex- pressing appreciation to the federa- tion of women’s clubs, and sent to Mrs. John Knauf, Jamestown, state president. The federation has taken an active interest in Indian welfare and has worked to improve their economic and social conditions. Mem- bers present were Mrs. Charles W. Hoffman and Mrs. John T. Stanturf, Monday afternoon with a program given by the three seventh grade nuusic classes of Will junior high school. Miss Ruby Wilmot, music super- visor, has announced the following schedule for programs commemorat- ing music week by other grade stud- ents: Thursday morning, Richholt school sixth grade; Thursday after- noon, Roosevelt school, sixth grade, and Friday afternoon, Will junior high eighth grade. Sixth graders in the ‘William Moore and Wachter buildings gave their programs Tuesday. In each group, the children are making their own program plans and are presenting them without assist- ance of instructors. Music scrap- books with written material and pic- tures of composers have been made by many pupils, according to Miss ‘Wilmot. The seventh grade classes which have chosen the tree names of Oak, Cottonwood and Maple included the fcllowing numbers in their programs.

Disabled Veterans To Meet Wednesday Members of Bismarck - Mandan chapter No. 3, of the Disabled Amer- ican Veterans of the World War, will assemble in a special meeting at The Stag in Mandan Wednesday evening, |according to E. M. Davis of Bismarck, adjutant. The session is scheduled to begin at 8 o'clock (M.S.T.) The meeting was called principally for rearrangement of plans for the state convention of the organization in Bismarck, dates for which recently changed from June 4-5 to May 31 and June 1. OP | Additional Society | Dr. and Mrs. Herbert Miller, who have been at Concordia, Kan., for the last year, were in Bismarck Monday and Tuesday visiting with Dr. Miller's brother and sister-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. L.

Says Music Is Fine Ave- nue for Relaxation Kiwanis club at the service organiza- tion’s luncheon meeting Tuesday. The desire of children to study music and learn to play musical in- struments is a commendable charac- teristic, Miss Wilmot said in briefly describing the musical work carried on in the schools. As an avenue of relaxation as well as education and culture, she said, music fills a great need. Nothing is more soothing when relaxation is wanted, she pointed out, than to turn to music. “Let the child study the instru- ment of his or her own choosing, re- gardiess of whether it is the instru- ment chosen by the parents,” Miss Wilmot warned in pointing out that the child knows best what is most to| his or her liking. Miss Wilmot also described musical work in the schools, explaining how the Walter Damrosch radio hour was 20 Toward. 22 Rond. turtles. 23 Firearm. 47 Withered. 45 Intention. 49 Pussy 17 Drone bee. 50 Either. 48 It is located in 52 Scheme.

Holabird of the Holabird and Root architectural firm, Chicago, as- sociate architects of North Dakota's new state capitol building, visited in Bismarck Monday to inspect the near- ly-completed structure. The visit gave Holabird his first opportunity to meet the present mem- bers of the capitol commission, and he conferred with memiers regarding details of the building. Practically all of the departmental quarters in the building are com- Pleted and occupied now, including the governor's suite, according to Major Frank L. Anders, secretary of the commission. Installation of chestnut wood pan- elling in the house section of our leg- islative wing was begun Monday and installation of the Eng:ish oak wood- work in the senate chamber is practi- cally completed. Carpeting already has arrived for the more elaborate departments, including those for the supreme court, governor and secretary of state, but will not be laid for several days yet.

Known as the Wheeler-How- ard bill, it is now before all tribes for recommendation. The Arickara already have express- ed approval of the proposed measure and their delegates met with the Gros Ventres and Mandans for concerted study and action. A test vote showed the tribes approved the proposal by a large majority. Final action will be taken later. Approval of the terms of the measure does not bind the tribes to take out a charter of incor- constitutionality of the embargo law. \Carnival to Operate In Capital Next Week Bismarck will have its first carnival of the season next week, it was an- nounced here Tuesday by C.

It will come here from Jamestown and leave for Minot, according to Mc- Leod, who is making arrangements for the showing here. The carnival carries 200 persons, 10 novelty shows, seven riding devices, including merry-go-rounds and the ferris wheel, two bands, athletic and wrestling shows and other new car- nival features. The carnival will establish itself just south of the Bismarck Baking Co., at Main Avenue and Sixteenth St. Capital City Flier Addresses Students In one of a series of talks given by non-faculty persons before members of the vocational guidance class of Will junior high school, F.

Frigidaire Company Has Enormous Sales So great is the demand for Frigi- daires, electric refrigerators, that enormous shipments are being made aily from the huge plant in Dayton, ©., according to infomation received in Bismarck by A. R. Tavis, of the Tavis Music Co., Frigidaire dealer in the Capital City. “Every one of the 15 models of the Frigidaire 1934 line is in demand,” Tavis sald, “but especially the life- time porcelain models with the fam- cus twin-cylinder super-power com- pressor which provides refrigeration capacity for every purpose and every climate. si Frigidaire porcelain models are the standard of the world in refrigerators. “With automatic ice tray releases so one doesn’t have to jerk and strug- gle with the ice trays when they are frozen in the freezer compartment, with extraordinary ice cube freezing capacity, giant hydraters, the new convenient servashelf, the utility bas- ket for eggs and other small objects that roll, with automatic defrosting and a nine-point cold control,” Tavis said, “it is safe to say that Frigidaire ig the finest electric refrigerator any woman may own.” PERSHING AIDE DIES Minneapolis, May 8.—(4)—Colonel Oliver S.
