These clouds, sweeping our productive top- soil into waves, windrows and even into other states and out to sea, say to us as they whistle by that we must make radical changes in our system of farming and our land management policies else we shall be driven from an arid and non-productive country. In the aggregate, these dust storms consti- tute not only a menace to our health and ma- terial prosperity but are an indictment of the system of rugged individualism under which this country was developed. Last year it was the northwest—and it is possible that we will have dust storms this year in addition to the one we already have experi- enced. We learned all of the tragedies and dis- comforts which this year are being visited on the people of Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas and ie some other states. News dispatches mention a disease which they call “dust pneumonia.” We know about that, too, for did not 10 persons die of pneu- monia in Bismarck within a week last May dur- ing the worst of that dust-clouded period? Our housewives know what it is to battle dust and dirt which creeps in at every nook and cranny. Our motorists understand how it can be necessary to turn on headlights at noon in order to make our presence on the highway known. Answer to the question of what to do about {t seems simple enough. It is to restore these western plains, as nearly as possible, to their original condition. Fewer acres in wheat and cultivated crops and more in grass may mean more of everything in the long run. The rec- ords show that we can, under proper conditions, raise more grain on fewer acres than is the case now. In our general misconception of what constitutes progressiveness we have over- reached ourselves. We must back-track, as quickly and intelligently as we can, if we are - to work out our own salvation. It may mean regimentation and a lot of other hard-sounding things. It may mean vio- lation of the traditional principle that a man can do what he wishes with his own property, but the simple fact is that every land owner should have a reasonable proportion of his acres in grass and pasture crops. If he doesn’t do it willingly there should be a way of forcing him to do it. It may come to that in the end. One of Fishing’s Joys There is something appealing Story from Chicago telling how the liars begin to polish up their best stories with the opening of the season. It emphasizes one of the delightful phases of what is either ® fine pastime or a great art, depending upon the point pf view. For nothing is more sociable than fishing, and the telling of tall tales is merely a mark of that camaraderie which marks all fishermen. In the evening, by the glow of a campfire or a pot-bellied stove, the big one which got away takes on truly gigantic proportions. It becomes @ harbinger of new ambition, lodestone for tomorrow and all the other tomorrows to which the true fisherman looks forward, for he is an optimist.

McCari Too Hot to Washington, April 13—In all probability, the senate munitions committee’s drastic plan for eliminating war Profits won't get to first base. ‘The Nye committee, shocked by revelation of prac- tices in the war supplies racket and the record of World War profiteering, did its job too well. The chief idea behind the proposal to limit individ- ual salaries to $10,000 in wartime and to keep corpor- ation net gains down to 3 per cent is to minimize the economic dislocations of war—from which the world still suffers—by @ pay-as-you-go policy. But congress is full of conservatives and they con- sider the bill much too radical. The committee bill, urged on by Senators Nye, Clark, Bone, Pape, and others, may pass the senate. It would then probably be mislaid in the house, though there's some chance for a greatly modified meas- ure similar to the McSwain price-fixing bill. Even Bernard M. Baruch, whose influence is strong with conservative Democratic senators, considers the Proposals for limitation of incomes and profits far too drastic. ‘You can expect to hear the bill called “Socialistic” and “Communistic” and to see it licked with the plea that its passage would threaten the national safety. All that could save the bill would be some national clamor for it—of which there is no sign. POCKETBOOKS FIRST John T.
