The search for a solution to this (pressing issue was one born of grim necessity. Ne must have water or perish. Now, with the soil well soaked for the first time since 1932, there is danger that we will too soon forget the past and relax our efforts o obtain a permanently satisfactory solution. This should be guarded against most carefully. hen the next drouth comes we may be unable ito obtain the help which was given us through these last few years. In lush years ours is a land of plenty, but during the last two years thousands would have literally starved to death had it not been for assistance from the out- side. Although present signs are good, we have not yet harvested the crop which we hope will mature in 1985. There’s many a slip ’twixt the cup and the lip, in fact slips have been the rule rather than the exception for the last 10 years, but this year we hope our dreams will come to fruition. Granted that we now are headed for a suc- cession of wet years—which is by no means cer- tain—there still remains every reason for us to concentrate on the job of preserving our ag- ricultural resources in every way possible, ‘The Bismarck Association of Commerce has a@ committee studying the possibilities of irri- gation in the Missouri valley. Its work should be continued and, if possible, arrangements should be made now to try out this system of farming. Irrigation farming is by no means a bed of roses, yet it offers a certainty which dry farming lacks in a region of variable rainfall. dust as the old slogan advises us “in time of peace prepare for war” so should our prairie leode emphasize the admonition “in time of rain prepare for drouth.” Irrigation may be one of the answers if not the only answer. The same thing holds true of our battle against erosion of our farm land by destructive winds. Many of the CCC camps assigned to this state have been enlisted in the soil erosion service and much erosion control work will be one this summer, but the CCC projects at best can serve only as examples. If the soil of the leverage farm is to be conserved the average farmer must do the job unless he wants to be like the Wisconsin farmer who proudly boasted that he and his father had “wore out” three farms between them. s These are factors which must be kept in find if North Dakota is to prosper. If, as we hope, we now are entering a period of good agri- eultural production, we should follow the advice which Joseph gave the Egyptians and prepare luring the fat years for the lean ones which felways follow. We Have No Complaint ‘The fact that the British government is going to be ble to reduce income taxes next year in spite of in- jereased military expenditures, as evidenced by Neville /Chamberlain’s outline of the new budget in the house of commons, may make American taxpayers wish envi- ously that our government could discover some way of doing likewise. However, before we grow too envious, it is well to compare existing American income tax rates with those in England. The American income tax, for » married man with- out dependents, begins at an earned income level of | $3,000 a year, on which a man pays $8. In England, it ‘begins with $1,000 incomes. The rate there is $5.63; $3,000 it is $272.81;. for $5,000, on which the [pays $80, the Britisher must pay $632.81.

Hitlerism now going on down in Haiti, which is a sort of financial protectorate of ours.
