Triumph for Democracy Returns from Tuesday's election in- dicate a triumph for democracy, using the term in the broadest sense of the ‘word. They proved that North Dakotans adhere to the system of government set up in pioneer days, that consti- tutionality is not a myth and that they still regard public office as a public trust. If proof was needed that the people of our state still can rise to the chal- Tenge of a moral issue, this election gave it. The manner in which they went to the polls in near-record numbers demonstrated conclusively the interest which honest government holds for them. ‘ ‘The vote also paved the way for an entirely new approach to our eco- nomic problems. It indicated a will- ingness to abandon the purely po- litical outlook, to cast aside dema- @oguery and prepare for # long pull together in an effort to solve our out- standing difficulties. Tt recognized that, over a great part of our state, the outstanding problem during the last 10 years has been one of agricultural production as well as one of price. By their votes the people of the etate endorsed proposals for state ac- tion to conserve water and to classify Jand for agricultural purposes, .two of the major proposals made by Gov- ernor-elect Moodie in his campaign. ‘The election brings to the governor- ship s man supremely well fitted to discharge the duties of that office. ‘His broad experience and knowledge of public affairs are assurance that measures which he advocates will be In a very real and wholesome sense he is an idealist. He knows that # competent gov- ernment can do much for the people and his interest as governor will be- years he has been preaching the doctrine of a square deal for ag- riculture. He now finds himself in of the situation which it pre- sents and of what each individual can to bring about governmental sta- bility and economic recovery. ‘Under Moodie’s leadership the way ‘will be pointed for us. Unless that leadership is accepted in the proper spirit, the possible fruits of the elec- tion will be lost to us.

Not particularly partisan to President Roosevelt's new deal, she still sees it as far better than Communism, Fascism, Hitlerism -|or Socialism as represented in Euro- pean government. Hark to her presentation of condi- tions in the nations she visited: In Russia the worker lives in crowd- ed, unsanitary rooms and gets 12% cents a day. Food is bad and scarce with little or no meats or fats. The Russian is a political prisoner in his If he complains he faces exile or even possible death. Germany has an average working day of 12 hours with small pay and no margin for comfort or savings. Rent and food are high and taxes are enormous. Every worker pays old age, unemployment and disability insur- ance and a tax to support the unem- ployed. France is going down rather than up economically and the same thing is true of Italy. In the latter coun- try the situation is complicated by political supervision which amounts to suppression. It still isn’t safe to say what you think in Italy. The average American still has a home, probably with gas or electricity and enough food. The probabilities are he still has a car and a radio and his wife has at least some labor-sav- ing equipment in the home. His children go to free schools and, if he is pinched, free medical and other services are available, America still is spending relatively large amounts of money on such non- essentials as baseball and football games, beauty treatments and vaca- tions, things the average European knows little or nothing about. All in all, the average American can reach only one conclusion. Compared with the rest of the world this still is a grand place to live.

They are published without regard to whether they agree or disagree with The Tribune's policies, The National Sinking Fund (New York Times) For the first time since the new fiscal year began on July 1 the treas- ury has made a substantial payment into the national sinking fund. It amounts to $84,485,550, and presum- ably represents that amount of Fourth Liberty 4%s recently turned in for payment in connection with the Oct. 15 refinancing and now applied to the sinking fund account. While this is essentially a matter of bookkeep- ing, and while it is true, unforcunate- ly, that the sinking fund sinks noth- ing at this time, the transaction is nevertheless a token of good faith. The present fund was established nearly 16 years ago by the Victory Liberty Loan Act. to set aside for debt reduction enough of the government's revenues each year so that the entire funded war debt would be retired in about 25 years (or by 1944), except for the amount representing obligations of foreign governments to which the United States had made war loans. st The latter were to be Time has dealt a heavy blow to the Plans thus laid. Only a comparatively small part of the mammoth total due ‘incipal and interest on the war bts has been received; payments have now been interrupted in most cases, and probably no one in Wash- ington seriously expects them to be resumed on anything like their pre- depression scale. Meantime our own. government has, since 1930, been op- erating with a heavy deficit.
