Their reasons vary from consider- ation of the really strong campaign made by forces opposed to the mea- 6ure and an attendant inaction on the Part of its supporters, to a belief that the proposal is not designed to meet with the widespread support which any initiated measure must have if it is to carry. Of the two considerations, the form in which the matter is pre- sented probably is most important. In addition to an appeal to the regu- Jar drys, the anti-repeal organization is asking help from the moderate wets ‘with the contention that the proposed letting down of all bars to the liquor traffic is going much too far. Par- ticularly do they stress the situation ‘which could exist were any regula- tory law subsequently passed by the legislature, to be referred. This, as everyone knows, would leave us with @ legaliized liquor traffic, free of all festraints. As a result of the ineptitude of the ‘wets in presenting this kind of a meas- ‘ure whatever hope there was of ob- taining a reasonable solution to the liquor question in this state seems to have gone glimmering. ‘Casual observation discloses to any- one that the average citizen has lit- tle pronounced sympathy for either the active wet or the active dry. Many People would prefer to vote for a mid- @le-of-the-road policy which would take into consideration the realities of the situation. ‘What these realities are is appar- ent to anyone who looks with intelli- gent eye upon what occurs about him. If the drys believe that the prohibi- tion law as we now have it is either enforced or practicably enforceable they are mistaken. Anyone who wishes to do so can buy fiquor almost anywhere in North Da- kota and in almost any quantity. The low of illegal liquor goes on, dimin- ished only by the fact that a large mumber of persons prefer to drink fegal beer. No taxes are received from this illicit sale. Many persons, some of them teetotalers, would prefer to rear their children in an atmosphere which smacked less of hypocrisy, which did not require the juvenile mind to adjust itself to such fictions @s the prohibition law. So much for the valid wet side of the argument. ‘The indisputable dry side is that liq- wor is a dangerous proposition. It very often leads to debauchery, brutality, 4i1 health and broken homes. At its dest, it is a thing to be shunned or taken sparingly. The very persis- tence of its existence without the law shows it to be a naturally lawless traffic, To throw down the bars en- tirely would be to invite ruination for the individual and distress for the body politic, ‘They take the stand that, under Prohibition, the traffic is at least not 2.00! years, It probably will be the last for some time. Educational Tools That educators are not at all in- clined to be smug and self-satisfied is evidenced by an examination of their professional papers, delivered at teachers conferences and in their pro- fessional magazines. Thus it is nothing of a shock to the teacher to read in the Parent-Teach- ers magazine a statement that $250,- {000,000 a year is wasted annually by antiquated methods in education and jthat leaders in this field “should find some way of keeping the schools up with the times or be taken to the woodshed for a sound spanking.” The indictment in this case is that the schools have failed to make use cf modern’ tools, notably the motion picture machine. The claim is made that children could learn in 15 min- utes, with the aid of this device, things upon which they now must The indictinent here is that too much time is spent upon books. Any thoughtful individual recog- made upon the teacher by modern society, demands which frequently: might better be made upon the very Persons who expect the teacher to as- sume any and every burden. He also has some appreciation of the handicaps which human nature imposes upon the pedagogue. If bless- ed with anything less than a really angelic disposition and an overwhelm- ing sense of humor the best teacher is liable to be driven up to if not beyond the limits of her restraint and endurance. Others, because of a turn of mind one kind or another in the last four ———————— es s __THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 1984 ” So What Would You Do? | which too often accompanies the teaching profession, occasionally give the idea of seeming wise beyond their knowledge and experience, with an attendant bad impression on the adult Population. But a wholesale indictment of the teachers’ tools is no reflection upon the teacher herself. Neither does it follow that the school system will be convicted if a fair trial is had. Motion pictures may, for example, be an easier way of learning but the facts so obtained may slip more easily from the mind. Thus motion picture education may be merely a thing to be experienced rather than a real benefit. Besides, there is the question of habit to be considered. Education does not end with the school period and most learning in post-school years comes from the examination of writ- ten material. If the child learns to read intelligently the rudiments of all education and culture are provided for him. On this basis the indictment of in- adequate tools should be narrowed cown somewhat and teachers made less critical of themselves and their fellow workers. The NewDeal Washington Volcano Simmers Beneath AAA... Big Bust-Up Looms ... Wallace Grimly Opposes Showdown . . . Lib- erals Get Licking in Boston ... Tom Heflin’s Ghost Walks.

A visit to any of the el tion headquarters just now would veal at least the appearance of 51 preme confidence in each headquar- ters and the assurance that it is all over but the counting, the count, of course, being certain to show com- plete victory for “our” side. No trustworthy indication of real trends, therefore, is to be found at campaign headquarters. Also, it is difficut to determine just what indi- cations are trustworthy, for the most, experienced observers often find themselves sadly mistaken by what they believe to be entirely satisfac tory evidences of public sentiment. Conceding the notorious unreliabi- lity of surface indicatiohs, the fact re- mains that there have been decided evidences during the past week of more of a swing of sentiment toward Moodie in the present campaign for governor of North Dakota. That ine formation comes from almost every flaunted in the faces of those who Bre against it, All of which leaves the citizen who favors legal sale of liquor under prop- er conditions holding the same sack fhe has always grasped at the end of ne of these arguments. On one side are the enthusiastic @rys. On the other are the wets, all too often led by individuals whose chief aim is to make a profit from the sale of strong drink. As & result, nearly all of the pro- Posals upon which we have been asked to vote have represented extremes. ‘The voice of the average man is not heard in shaping such proposals. He 4s unorganized and hence is ineffec- tive. The organized wets and drys ere alike opposed to what a large number of persons want. In fact, the Probabilities are thet @ liquor sales or control system in which the prof- fits went to the state, would be fought quite as bitterly by some wets as by the drys. Tt may be, as some suggest, that the Problem is insoluble. Certainly it is insoluble unless a wholly new ap- proach to it is made. Tn any event one thing is certain.
