Sloan, General Motors head, to review the possibilities for employment in the future, some 300 of America’s scien- tifie, social and commercial leaders turned their thoughts to 2034 and at- tempted to give some idea of the eco- nomic situation as it then will pre- vail. ‘That all of them were wrong goes ‘without saying. Just as no man could have predicted in 1834 the situation ‘which now exists, so also is it impos- sible to foretell with any degree of accuracy conditions a century hence. Topping all others in optimistic prophecy was Dr. Walter B. Pitkin of Columbia University, a famous psychologist. His view is that by 2034 the “Life liberty and pursuit of hap- piness trust will supply every service 0 cheaply and so neatly that by ‘working three or four hours a year, Citizen Jones can buy everything he needs and quit worrying about any- thing.” ‘Thus will utopia come to this mun- dane sphere and happiness be insured ‘to everyone. Those who wish to lead “the life of Riley” may do so and any ‘work to be done will be performed for the fun of it, with the exception of that brief interlude the professor mentions. ‘Without wishing to be bearish on the subject, it would seem rather a poor thing for the human race if such & condition comes to pass. In the first place, human achieve- ment 'will stop when people quit working. You can not prepare a man for service as a bridge builder, for example, with only four or five hours @ year to serve as an apprenticeship. No matter what new tools are devised, it still will require skill and training to operate them and these can be ‘acquired only by experience, Another undesirable factor would be to lower the quality of the human race. No people has grown great un- der the devastating effects of a too- abundant leisure. The human fiber is not made tough or constructive by a life of ease and luxury. Great achieve- ments, in nearly all instances of recorded history, have been wrought only by travail and labor, ‘Then, too, granting that the good doctor's forecast is suceptible of ful- fillment, it would be a bad thing for all of us. Few men can loaf grace- fully for great lengths of time. Also, it would be taking much enjoyment out of life, for one of the pleasures of well-provided leisure always has been the contrast which it provides in comparison to normal existence. For work is an end in itself, If you don’t believe it, just watch the untrained child working vigorously at something which interests him. He is merely giving expression to an inborn trait with which most of us re endowed when we come into the world. 2.00 Small Beginnings Recent statistics on Bismarck’s building industry, showing the first faint burgeonings of new enterprise after a let-down of several years, is ‘an encouraging factor in the city de- velopment. One new apartment house and sev- eral homes are being constructed, in addition to the prospective new high school buijding. For several years our major build- ing has consisted of public enter- been so good after all because, for the average individual, there were not so many of them. In Bosten, 100 years ago, the aver- age life span was only two-thirds of what it is in the same city now. The death rate was about 50 per cent higher. Another curious thing disclosed by this study is the fact that the acci- dental death rate is only a little high- er in Boston now than it was then, and this despite increasing conges- tion, the widespread use of the auto- Mobile and other hazards attendant upon the machine age. In those days deaths by drowning exceeded the rate of deaths by auto- mobile accidents now being recorded, whereas deaths by drownings now have practically disappeared. In 1830 less than 16 per cent of Boston’s population was over 40 years of age. The present figure is 33 per cent. ‘The result is to sharply challenge that “good old days” theory. Even if they were better than the present the People did not live so long to enjoy them. Beware of Prairie Fires Residents of the northeastern sec- tion of the county reported the other day a prairie fire near Regan which burned over several sections and re- quired considerable work to stop. This incident brings home to us the possibility of further fires of this kind, some of which may not be so easily stopped. The breaking up of the prairie in recent years has reduced what once was a major peril of the plains coun- try. There no longer is the wide sweep of untilled land which per- mitted a roaring inferno to rush down upon the homes of luckless settlers. The need for firebreaks is not what it once was. Yet it is only a few years ago that we had several deaths from prairie fires and the situation now would be critical were it not for the fact that there is very little dry vegetation left in the country, most of it having been eaten off by stock during the winter. But one never knows when a care- lessly tossed cigarette or match will start conflagration which may have Serious results. People driving through the country, as well as persons living there, should bear this in mind and conduct themselves accordingly un- til the present situation improves. BISHOP ADDRESSES BISMARCK HOSPITAL GRADUATES MONDAY 17 Nurses Receive Diplomas in Exercises Conducted at City Auditorium An inspirational address, “The Challenge of Modern Nursing,” was delivered to the 17 graduates of the Bismarck Hospital School of Nursing Monday evening by Bishop S. P. Spreng, D.D., of Naperville, Ill, for 25 years president of the Deaconess Society of the Evangelical church. Presiding during the exercises, which were held at the Bismarck city auditorium beginning at 8 o'clock, was Rev. John Fischer, Tuttle presi- dent of the board of trustees. Miss Susan V. Scheaffer, super- visor of nurses, repeated the Night- ingale Pledge, which was taken by the graduates as they stood with their right hands raised. Miss Pauline Buz- zell, educational director, handed the diplomas to Rev. Fischer, who in turn Presented them to the graduates. Music Opens Program Music for the program included the processional and recessional play- ed by Miss Lois Gloege, who also ac- companied the Nurses’ Glee club in singing “Narcissus” by Nevin and “A Perfect Day” by Bond. Miss Gloege Played # saxophone solo to piano ac- companiment by Miss Verna Graunke. Rev. G. Adolph Johns of the First Lutheran church gave the invocation PERSONAL HEALTH SERVICE By William Brady, M.

HUMAN BAROMETERS MAKE ME TIRED ‘Without argument I concede that all sort of invalids or valetudinarians are more sensitive to weather changes and t> momentary variations of the envir- onment than are normal folk. But that gives them no license to blame the climate or the weather or exposure for their troubles. TI can listen, or rather pretend to listen without question ur comment to the ordinary run-of-the-mill bla-bla about this changeable weather making the rheumatiz, neuritis, sciatica or what have you worse. A doctor gets to taking it that way in self-defense. Otherwise he must go to the trouble of explaining, and people object to paying for the extra time that takes. Actually there is no such ailment as “rheumatism,” but it will cost you a dime and a stamped envelope bearing your address if you want to know what the idea is—you can read all about it in the booklet “The Ills Called Rheumatism.” But when I hear some old fossil croaking about the draft or the damp- ness or the sudden change giving him “more cold” I just can’t endure it. I must either burst out in an ungentle- manly haw-haw or take myself out of earshot. Formerly I attempted to reason with such individuals if they looked halfway intelligert, but I never try that any more. They are the very granddads of all wiseacres and long since their minds have set and are impervious to any new impres- sions. Of course there is an intimate rela- tion between surface conditions and the circulation. We all recognize this when we give a hot mustard foot bath in the treatment of acute bronchitis, acute coryza or acute inflammation in the ear (earache) or toothache from “ulcerated tooth” (abscess around the root). If it were possible to observe the mucous membrane lining the air pas- sages in the nog, sinuses, throat, Eustachian tubes, middle ear cavity, we would see how the blood supply is regulated by vasomotor impulse which came mainly from the skin surface. Varying temperature of air, water or objects in contact with the skin produces the vasomotor impulses which increase or decrease thé propor- |tion of blood in the voluminous ca- |piuary network of the nasal mucous |membrane. All this is physiological to make the offer. Mrs. Clara Mason of Fargo, grand jury stenographic reporter, the witness stand at the time. “If the court please,” said Sullivan, rising to his feet, this time, Z should like to make a statement re- garding the transcript of testimony. The record discloses that Hample appeared before the grand i jury. “The record also shows that he ap- peared voluntarily; that he was ad- vised of the matter under tion; his attitude then was to testify. “His attitude hasn't changed. This defendant is willing to waive his con- land normal and gives no conscious jeensation. Only when there is some |abnormality, some pathological condi- ltion present in nose, throat, sinus, |does one become unduly sensitive and conscious of the reaction to changes of environment. That's all there is in the human barometer business. If you're one, you're an invalid, and it is wrong for you to attempt to regu- late the conduct or mode of life of healthy people by your own abnormal feelings or views. Keep as comfort- able as you can in all circumstances, enjoy themselves too, even if their idea of comfort does not coincide with yours. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Aspirin Is Heart Poison Does aspirin affect the heart? 1 take at least one ever day. (G. K.)

However, I know of no pain-killer or sense-deadener that is Jess injurious, and probably most of them are more injurious.

It Is Too Cheap Druggist refused to sell me iron and ammonium citrate. He said it would be harmful to take so much (Mrs. D. G. G.) Answer—What's biting him is the small profit he can make. Send a dime and stamped envelope bearing your address, for the booklet “Blood and Health.” The recipe for the iron tonic as given in the buoklet is tried and true, and you must not permit any trick druggist to prevent you from taking advantage of it. (Copyright 1934, John F. Dille Co.) required of a modern nurse, including a healthy body, capacity to learn and apply knowledge, love for suffering humanity, responsibility, power of adaptation and definite, systematic education and training. In pointing out some of the necessary elements of success, Bishop Spreng urged the graduates at all times to be courteous, cheerful and unselfish. “Never be discouraged,” he charged the nurses. “Faint heart never won a battle. I know it is a hard task, an thrilling challenge and its rewards are rich beyond computation.” closing he urged the class to adopt the motto of the young men who dug the Panama Canal who, when they came back from their great achieve- ment, sang a song closing with “We Specialize in the wholly impossible, in things nobody else ever could do!” ‘There was a large audience assem- bled for the occasion. Afterward, the guests were invited to the World War Memorial building dining room, where the graduates, assisted by the Misses Sheaffer and Buzzell, received them. The wives of two local phy- sicians, Mrs. H. A. Brandes and Mrs. A. M. Brandt, presided at the refresh- ment table. The exercises concluded commence- ment activities for the class, who also were honored at baccalaureate serv- ices Sunday evening. Bishop Spreng also was the baccalaureate speaker. Plea for Injunction Is Denied by Court Wilmington, Del., May 29.—(>)— The federal district court Tuesday denied the government's plea for a preliminary injunction to restrain the Weirton Steel company from inter- fering with the election of collective bargaining representatives by its em- Ployes. Judge John P. Nields held that a restraining order in a labor dispute may be issued only after the testi- mony of witnesses has been taken in and Rev. Walter E. Vater of the Mc- Cabe Methodist Episcopal church closed the exercises with benediction. | The auditorium stage was decorat- ed profusely for the occasion. Ex- tending across the front was a white lattice entwined with spirea and bear- ing in pink letters the class motto, “Thy Need Is Greater Than Mine.” Placed at intervals at the back and pink carnations and vases of snow- balls, 11 Graduates othy Richardson, Plaza; Margaret Brevig, Bismarck; Hollis Golliett, peer Paes Volizke, Zap; Lydia Albrecht, Ryder; Georgia Barcus, Mo- hall; Dorothy Field, Zap; McGregor; Fugile, Coleharbor; Marie Kummer, Walcott; Grace Liebig, Denhoff; Ver- na Mack, dina; Irene Parkman, Hope; Taylor, and Margaret Wolla, Tioga. “Not until the days of Nightingale, the angel of the Crimea, did the nursing of the sick by the R g 3 Lehr; Helen Merkel, Me- | sides of the stage were baskets of pink Peterson, ag fiscal agent for the Re- Gladiolus, red and white peonies and |Construction Finance Corporation, or ‘The 1034 class an (ted.

The court said the matter could be dis- cussed in his chambers. Lanier announced that the govern- exacting mission. But it also is a| ment had no desire to keep Peterson | here further. Thorp replied for the defense that “we are not ready to | decide that now.” By their numerous objections, close | scrutiny of opposition evidence and {careful and prolonged questioning of witnesses thus far whose testimony is | intended for laying the foundation of the case, attorneys for both sides have indicated their intent to con- cede their legal antagonists nothing which might eventually detract from shen chance to get a favorable deci- sion. Frequent legal skirmishes have waged since the first witness took the stand. Defense attorneys who rep- Tesent any of the defendants indivi- dually Tuesday morning indicated to the court that the fact that they do not offer separate objections as the evidence is introduced does not con- stitute a waiver. Hample Willing to Talk At the opening of the afternoon ses- sion, G. A. Hample, through his at- torney, John Sullivan, offered to take the witness stand and testify regard- ing his activities in connection with “The Leader” solicitation. Sullivan interrupted an argument between Lanier and Thorp as to the admissibility of a transcript of Ham- ple’s testimony before the grand jury King’s Sweetheart stitutional right, go on the ‘witness’ stand and permit you to examine him, so far as keeping within the bounds.” Lanier rose to his feet. Check and Double Check “Am I to understand that this offer is good for the length of the trial?” he asked. “Am I to will appear whenever we want him?” “Well, I'd like to have it within a a ad Period of time,” Sullivan replied. Judge Andrew Miller, presiding, | d! asked Lanier what his objections were to Hample taking the stand immed- “I have several other questions, touching upon-other matters, not re- lating to Hample, that I should like to ask,” Lanier replied. “Also, I have @ couple of witnesses I should like to place on the stand before Hample takes it.” “Does that mean Hample will ap- pear during the afternoon,” Lanier was asked. “Yes,” replied the district attor- ney. A discussion followed as to whether Mrs. Mason was to be excused. “If the court will permit us a little time,” Lanier said, “we will arrange to have her identify all the exhibits now. The court granted the government the time desired and Mrs. Mason was Tecalled to the stand. Enters Standing Objection Thorp entered a standing objection to the admission of testimony and exhibits from the grand jury hear- ing at Fargo.

The court intervened to state that the procedure was merely a prelimi- nary examination of the instruments. He overruled the objection. Thorp said, “The defense asks to inspect these documents to determine if we desire cross-examination.” Lanier said the government denied the request on the grounds that they had not yet been offered in evidence. “It is understood,” Thorp said in addressing the court, “that we wish to enter a standing objection to each of these documents.” Oscar J. Buttedahl, editor of “The Leader,” was called to the witness stand at the conclusion of the testi- mony by Mrs, Mason. Nine applications, signed by Gov- ernor Langer, for Reconstruction Fi- nance Corporation funds, were ine troduced Monday. Forty-one other exhibits, original checks representing disbursements made by the Federal Reserve bank through Washington sanction to the governor also were introduced, to- gether with four photostatic copies of applications, signed by Langer, for relief funds from the federal emer- gency relief administration in May 1933, Peterson’s testimony was largely routine with explanations as to how the checks came from the national treasury department and how the funds in turn were disbursed for North Dakota relief. Testimony was furnished Monday by only two of more than 60 govern- ment witnesses who will be placed on the stand before the prosecution rests. ‘They were Sherrard Ewing, Bronx- ville, New York, former field repre- sentative of the relief division of the Reconstruction Finance corpuration for six northwest states including North Dakota, and Peterson. Ewing's testimony explained the or- ganization of the state relief organi- zation, headed by Governor Langer. In the afternoon he was recalled for cross-examination. The defense introduced a letter wurt.
