North Dakota and the Poll The first statistical measure of North Dakota’s reaction to the “New Deal” of President Roosevelt is that contained in the current report of the Literary Digest’s poll, in which this state appears for the first time. It shows the president holding the support of most of those who voted for him in 1932 and gaining addition- al converts in other quarters. While the ratio for the “New Deal” is not ‘as strong as that recorded in the 1932 election, it is sufficiently strong to convince the average observer that North Dakota is, on the whole, favor- ably impressed by the present experi- ment. ‘The basic figures are 1,743 in favor to 1,063 against out of @ total of 2,806 votes cast. Of those who voted for Roosevelt 18 months ago, 1,245 like the “New Deal” and 318 are opposed to it, a defection of approximately one vote in five from the president's standard. Of those who voted for Hoover, 425 like the proposals of the new era and 695 are opposed to it, indicating a stronger ratio of conversion than of defection. Among those who voted for other candidates in 1932 the decision is much closer, the score being 28 to 23 in favor of the presitient’s policies. It would appear, on this basis, that the Roosevelt experiment is only slightly more popular among the So- tialists and Communists than among the Republicans who stuck with the sinking ship in 1932. Roosevelt gets & two-to-one margin among those who did not vote at all in 1932, the majority of whom may be presumed to be new voters. Among the bankers of the state, the opinion én North Dakota is more closely divided than in most other sections, 83 liking the new setup and 84 being opposed to it. On the whole, the results are not surprising. This state, more than most others, has evidenced a flair for political experiment. It is tradi- tionally “progressive” in outlook and thas never hesitated to try something building industry by guaranteeing loans made by private individuals for the construction of homes. It is not in tune with the times to say so, but $.4n| the fact seems to be that the building industry may pull out of the doldrums without government help. If the time comes when people can start new homes with any assurance of be- ing able to pay for them, a real boom will follow immediately. The need for them is apparent and the invest- ment capital is available. The un- certain factor in the situation is the level of income of those who would like to build. America on Wheels Not the least significant social de- velopment of recent years has been the increasing interest in “house cars” which permit the owners to go where they please at small cost and stay as long as they like. Only recently @ Bismarck couple returned home in one of these con- veyances after having been away @ year. There are at least half a dozen others in the city and the number is constantly growing. Because they are expensive, these vehicles are not yet as commonly used as they may be later, but that their number is increasing rapidly is sig- nificant. Perhaps, when we reach the halcyon time in which men will hhave to work only a few days a week to obtain their needs, everyone will have one and the address of entire families may range from Canada to Texas within the month. It will be a complicating thing, if and when it comes, but much less distressing than most of the problems we have en- countered in the past. Lo, the Poor Indian! Tt is three hundred years and more since the Pilgrims landed in Massa- chusetts and met the Wampanoags, native Indians of the Martha's Vine- yard region. No better reminder of their com- Plete submergence under the tide of white invasion could be had than the news that the Rev. Leroy Perry of Gay Head, Mass., is teaching to the few surviving Wampanoags their own tribal language. Forgotten by the tribesmen them- selves, it has been preserved in white men’s collected lore of the Indians, and now a few straggling braves are to learn from a white teacher the language of their fathers. And they'll probably show no par- ticular aptitude for it, either. Editorial Comment Editorials printed below show the trend of thought by other editors.

A dozen Army pilots were killed trying to show that the Army could maintain commercial schedules. Are the commercial lines or their pilots crowding things too close in @ retailiatory effort to show how pefectly their schedules are maintained? This is the third trans- port liner to be destroyed with all crew and passengers since the cancel- lation, while there have been three lesser crashes—one on the Pacific Coast and two in this area—in which like diasters were averted by pain- fully narrow margins. All six cases were assoicated with bad weather conditions, in which there would seem to have been no reason for risking the ships except overconfidence on the part of either the pilots or the companies. The result is now a death roll for the current six months in regularly scheduled transport twice that re- corded for the last six months of 1933. Even such a figure does not mean that transport flying has become un- duly hazardous, for the last six months of 1933 showed passenger fa- talities reduced to one in every 20,- 000,000 passenger miles flown.

HOW TO BE HAPPY THOUGH BLESSED No irreverence intended. This is about having a baby. Somehow I get the impression that the first concern of the newly mar- ried couple nowadays is to have no babies “for a while.” They have a| hifalutin’ notion that they ought to have money laid by, enough to em- ploy fancy specialists and everything, before they consent to be blessed. They think they must have lot of nifty furniture and snooty clothes and I don’t know what qll before they start to raise a family. They argue that they must get the piano, radio, auto or shanty at least partly peid for. Their attitude toward life is PERSONAL HEALTH SERVICE By William Brady, M. D. Signed letters pertaining to personal health and hygiene, not to disease diagnosis, or treatment, will be answered by Dr. Brady if a stamped, selfish and cold. There's little ro- mance in it.

Her marriage, if it is sanctioned by the law, should be a contract of lower order. Legal companionship or what- ever may be the purpose of such a union.

Madame would suit her, I should ‘Women who marry late should not take the fishwife suggestion too se- riously.

It does make childbirth easier. Women who assume the frail or weak role, listen to this: “T am 26, have been married six years.
