Socially Desirable Reduction in Bismarck’s lawn wa- ter rate, coupled with the announce- ment that a further cut in the gen- eral rate is contemplated, emphasizes anew Bismarck’s fortunate position ‘among the cities of North Dakota. Located on one of the world’s greatest rivers, a tremendous supply of this life-giving fluid passes our doorsteps daily. We need only pump it out, clarify and purify it and force it into the city mains for distribu- tion, The city commission took a logical nd praiseworthy step in reducing the lawn water rate, will win further applause by the additional cut to come. As Water Commissioner Smitir pointed out Saturday, it is “socially desirable” that the cost of this serv- ice be placed at the minimum con- sistent with financial stability of the water department. The phrase is a happy one in that it carries with it all the implications of benefit and ‘the wide ramifications which apply to the cost, high or low, of essential services. The important fact, of course, is that Bismarck is growing and more water is being consumed because there are more people to use it. On top of that we have the unprecedent- ed use of water in the effort to pro- tect lawns, trees and shrubs from destruction. If ever there was a time when the status of the average citizen made a reduction in the water rate desirable, that time is now. We were fortunate, indeed, that the city found itself in such financial position as to make the reduction possible. Thy Will Be Done If any agency is supreme in the modern American setup it is the com- mon people. How true this is can be aptly illustrated by the truck strike in Minneapolis, now happily on the way to adjustment. As long as the contest was merely one between the strikers and their employers, the average citizen re- garded it as no affair of his. But when food supplies began to grow short and the housewife was inconvenienced in getting her daily supplies, the situation changed. Strikers and special policemen might battle to their heart's content as long as their activities injured no one else, but when the general public began to suffer both sides quickly learned that they were only a very small part of the modern setup. enjoying the thrill of answertag 09 | Youthful questions, a form of society *|which probably had vanished from 50 | Certainly not the latter if they bave the nation depending on its youth is obviously true, but it is not the sig- nificant part of the comment. What. really mattered was “I don't get a chance like this very often.” For Ford, with all of his millions. is well past 70 and the days of his activity, if not of life, are numbered. He was enjoying something which money could not buy for him. He had scraped an acquaintance which was, in some small measure, permit- ting him to renew his youth, to 7ee again through young eyes. He wus his life years ago. Who can blame the man for snatching this bit of happiness, even if some big-wigs were forced to wait? the understanding which well may be expected of big figures, Out of Politics Justice Harlan F. Stone of the U. 8. supreme court lets it be known that he is “out of politics” and is not interested in reports naming him as @ possible contender for the Repub- lican presidential nomination in 1936. Although Justice Stone is unques- tionably a man of presidential cali- ber, his attitude is one to be ap- Plauded; for the tradition which Places the supreme court outside of Politics is a good one, which deserves to be kept alive. To be sure, Charles Evans Hughes resigned from the court in 1916 to run for the presidency, and after the Civil war, Chief Justice Salmon P. Chase accepted support for the presi- dency, But in the main the tradition has held; @ supreme court justice is out of politics and takes no interest in Political campaigns and stratagems. Justice Stone does his country a service by emphasizing that the tra- dition is still in operation. Killing an Old Alibi Officials of fraternal lodges at Athens, Ga., have thought up a little stunt to increase attendance at lodge meetings, and it looks good enough to pass on for the benefit of such other lodge officials as may need it. Briefly, it is this: Through the Athens Banner-Herald, they an- nounced that unless attendance picks up very soon, reporters will be invited to attend all meetings and publish the names of those who are present. This, of course, would mean that husbands who use that old gag about “going to the lodge meeting” would have to make good on the statement, or listen to some choice remarks from the little woman. It’s probably a dreadful invasion of the rights and privileges of the male, but the Banner-Herald reports that Athens wives are commending it heartily. And it ought to stimulate lodge attendance greatly!

The sena- tor cited correctly the Labor Bureau's index of factory employment had risen between April and September, 1933, from 59.9 to 80, decreasing there- after until last February. Some other influence must have becn at work on the first part of the period. ‘The large percentage increase for the twelvemonth in factory payrolls will not surprise any one familiar with the NRA codes; yet it is not without The public’s demand for services Settled the strike. It forced the calling of militia to preserve order. It obtained action in a situation which, were society less highly inte- gtated than it is, might have gone on for months without adjustment. ‘There is a lesson in this for buth employer and employe. Here it is: ‘The public pays the freight and will get what it wants and is entitled to. Before engaging in activities which| ¢ ‘will seriously discommode the public, it is wise to look ahead and see what the public reaction will be, for it very often is the decisive factor in such muddled situations, Had both sides in the Minneapol's trouble done this they would have adjusted their difficulties with no Geaths and no cracked heads, and the settlement for both would have conducted tour of the Ford exhibit.

No reply can be made to qui POCKET EMERGENCY KIT Tourists, hunters, prospectors, woodsmen, explorers, naturalists and others who go to out-of-the-way Places should keep at hand some sort of emergency or first aid outfit, und! as a rule the simpler and lighter the | more useful such a kit will be. Besides being vaccinated against smallpox, every traveler who visits other countries should be immunized against typhoid before he begins his journey. Every tourist and traveler should have with him some means of disin- fecting questionable water for drink- ing. Various chlorin compounds are available for the purpose, such as halazone tablets or common chloride (chlorinated) of lime, or in an emer- gency a drop of tincture of iodin may be added to a pint of the water and shaken and allowed to stand 20 min- utes, before one drinks any of the water, Of course boiling five minutes would make any water safe to drink, 80 far as pollution is concerned. Any worker, hunter, fisherman, ex- plorer or camper in rattlesnake coun- try should carry a package of anti- venin, which anybody can inject as an antidote for snake bite. The remedy keeps indefinitely. Many druggists rent the package at a nominal fee, for ® week-end or any temporary need. Here are the items I think essential in the pocket first-aid kit: One ounce tincture of iodin; one ounce flexible collodion; one ounce aromatic spirits of ammonia; one ounce boric acid powder; two seid- litz powders; 100 Phenolphthalein tablets; a dozen aspirin tablets; Potassium permanganate crystals (if no antivenin carried); copper sulphate, a dozen one-grain tab- lets; a tube of sterile petrolatum; a tube of Ol’ Doc Salve; spool of adhesive plaster; one or two seal- ed envelopes containing a yard of Sterile gauze; two-ounce carton or package of absorbent cotton; two or three bandages. ‘Use the iodin to swab immediately every cut, abrasion or trifling or se- rious wound. It bites hard, but only for a moment. If there is no bleed- ing, immediately seal over the wound with a coating of flexible collodion. If there is oozing, carefully apply a strip or two of adhesive plaster, with- out touching the wound, and draw the edges together with the plaster. If it is a considerable cut or abrasion, cover the wound with a pad of sterile Gauze and a layer of cotton and band- age, or retain the dressing with ad- hesive plaster straps.

From a few drops up to a teaspoon- ful of aromatic spirits of ammonia in ;@ half glassful of water may be given as a quick stimulant in any case of shock, faintness or collapse where the patient is conscious enough to swal- low. If the patient is unconscious some of the aromatic spirits of am- monia may be given by inhalation, pouring a spoonful into the palm of your hand and holding it close to the nose but with care not to drop any of the liquid into nose or eye.

At once we sprinkled borax powder along the wall, around the sink, and at other places where the roaches might run and ina few days the roaches disappeared, and have never returned. (C. B. 8.) Answer—Thank you. It may be that borax is as effective for the pur- Pose as is the roach di jer re- commended in the booklet “Unbidden Guests” (for copy send dime and stamped addressed envelope).

They gave me hay fever so I could hardly breathe. But last April 1 began taking calclum lactate as recommended in your Monograph. I could not take the three doses a day—it upset my stomach—but part of the time I man- aged to get two doses daily. I worked in the berries three weeks and ate them three times a day, and not enough stuffiness or trouble to sneeze about. Thank you. (Mrs. H. 8.)

RESERVE DECISION IN ARSON HEARING Testimony Heard in Case of Masseth; Wing Man Con- victed of Petty Larceny ‘The city police court has reserved its decision in the case of Lawrence “Tuffy” Masseth, accused of arson in the third degree, after hearing the testimony on both sides of the case. Plaintiffs produced witnesses who testified that Masseth was seen in the alley next to the Gamble-Robinson warehouse early Sunday morning just before fire broke out in bales of hay that were stacked beside the ware- house. Masseth admitted he was at the place but denied that he started the fire or that he had any motives which would prompt him to destroy the building. A hearing was also held in the case of the State vs. Harold Dant, Wing. Dant was convicted of petty larceny and sentenced to 30 days in Jail and costs. F. E. McCurdy, attor- ney for the defendant, immediately gave formal notice of appeal and the court fixed the appeal bond at $200. Dant was committed to jail in de- fault of bond. The defendant was accused of stealing a barrel of gasoline from nate| Harold Morris, who testified that he followed: automobile tire tracks to the farm of Ruben Kruse, on whose farm Dant was employed. Search warrants were obtained and the barrel was found empty in a field nearby. Con- flicting testimony was given by Dant and Kruse.

Mrs. Osterlund’s husband was driv- ing the motorcycle and Mrs. Oster- lund, Miss Keller and Joseph Nei- bauer, also of Bismarck, were riding in a side car. According to Neibauer, the lights went out as the machine turned the corner, the driver stepped on the brakes and the machine skidded into a guard post, turning over and unseating the occupants. Osterlund was thrown over the bank for about 15 feet. A man living near the scene the women entered the hospital. All four were badly bruised and shaken CALM PREVAILS IN OHIO STRIKE.

Striking longshoremen fought with Policemen Sunday on the New Or- Jeans river front, after rushing the dock where a steamship was prepar- ing to depart.
