Browne. 1 er rena renee fl Blossom Time This is blossom time in North Dakota and all of us can be glad, for there is nothing so convincing about the arrival of summer as the budding of the trees and their breaking into bloom in our yards and gardens and along the ‘wooded draws of this prairie country. Anyone driving up the road along the river bottoms catches the fragrance of the wild plum and the choke cherry, while in the city, amateur gardeners inspect their precious fruit trees and Jook toward a harvest, all too rare these last Yew years. In 1934 the fruit trees on many Bismarck properties bloomed on schedule but the blos- fo0ms were knocked off by nature’s sandblast, driven by high winds. This year those who have taken the trouble to plant and tend trees may be rewarded. It seems well past the normal time for frost and the probability is that many trees now covered with blooms will produce bountiful yields. But even if they do not, blossom time has a charm all its own. The poet who commented that “Only God can make a tree” might also have observed that only God can dress it in the most charming of all garbs. Honest Approach Few more commendable things have occurred recent- ty than the action of the American Petroleum Institute in asking the American Chemical Foundation to cooperate with it in an impartial examination of the relative merits f alcohol-blend and straight gasoline as motor fuels. This argument, it will be recalled, was presented to Congress as a farm relief measure, the idea being that manufacture of alcohol for fuel purposes would improve the market for agricultural products. The institute and the foundation engaged in » warm exchange at that time, the first contending for straight gasoline and the second for the alcohol mixture. As is usually the case where heat is generated by argument, neither side convinced the other. The bill failed to pass but the debate con- tinued, Now one of the partisans proposes the only intelligent. method of settlement. That is to make an impartial in- Vestigation of the matter and ascertain the facts. Since the oil men are trying to protect their business and the (chemical foundation is seeking to build up « new indus- try, the suggestion is not one which would ordinarily be Presented for disinterested review. Im addition to the example which it offers for an Sntelligent method of settling such questions, the pro- posed research has another and greater value to the Public. Our known oil reserves will last only 20 years or &o longer at the present rate of consumption. It will do no harm to begin # study of substitutes now so that the Public may be spared a shortage or unduly high prices at ome future time. To Preserve a Sport ‘Tt was just 150 years ago that John James Audubon, {the great naturalist, was born; and the American Na- fure Association suggests that the best way to mark the Bnniversary would be to declare a closed season this fall on all migatory waterfowl, According to the association's experts, we can choose hetween having a closed season now or s permanently Closed season a little later. Last year nearly 6,000,000 | ligence hhunters went out after game in the United States and laska—and, by sheer weight of numbers, demonstrat- ed that hunting, like golf and baseball, is a mass sport jadays, Tt is the sssociation’s contention that geese and Gucks are being slaughtered to such extent that in a few more years there will be no good hunting for any- | body. It might, indeed, be advisable to call for a halt | @ year or so that one of the finest of all outdoor sports ‘| may be preserved for the future, In the meantime every possible effort shauld be made to encourage the propagation of migratory waterfowl, A good start has been made by the government in con- structing game refuges in this and other states—BUT IT 18 ONLY A START. , This area, once the greatest breeding grounds for @ucks and geese in the world, has produced very few 4n late, years.

Party lines will mean less than ever before. That, at least until further notice, is the lineup fol- lowing a secret White House conference on a recent eve- ning, at which the president and the simon-pure pro- gressive senators reached a much better understanding than they had had since about a year ago, when Roose- velt began trying to conciliate “big business.” The session was informal, but it signalized what insiders regard as another turning point in the New Deal. Roosevelt invited the senators in and asked them for support and suggestions. The group included those two outstanding independ- ents, Norris of Nebraska and LaFollette of Wisconsin, as well as such Democratic progressive leaders as Costigan % ae Wheeler of Montana, and Bone of Wash- ington. F. R. URGED TO FIGHT The boys spoke right out in meeting. They agreed that the Roosevelt “must” program, along with the Wag- ner labor board bill, made a strong progressive program —if Roosevelt would go through with it. They vigorously urged him to assert an aggressive leadership, reminding him how Theodore Roosevelt had kept his grip on the American people by a fighting policy —even when he was only fighting with congress. They assured him the only way to overcome such popular apathy as had developed toward the New Deal was to hammer hard at the forces which had stalled his legislative program and which were now subjecting his Policies to incessant drum-fire. No doubt was left that the progressives were ready to go down the line for Roosevelt from now on if he would adopt a consistently liberal attitude. reer ROOSEVELT ALREADY “SOLD” The fact is that Roosevelt didn’t need to be: sold on what the progressives told him. He had it pretty well figured out for himself. Ever since the U. &, Chamber of Commerce delivered House to whisper that Roosevelt—who thinks he has done more to preserve the capitalist system than any- one else ever did—was disgusted and convinced that it was impossible to placate those “high and mighty” forces. Labor leaders who have seen F. D. lately are more convinced of his friendliness than ever before. ewe LIBERALS TAKE HEART Liberals, emerging from the dumps into which Roo- sevelt's “swing to the right” had cast them, are happy over the big business attack, which they feel gave him @ strong push in their direction. One of their leaders describes that attack as “a gift from the gods.” Roosevelt has been disturbed by the falling off of his popular support and by the threat of a ness of the third party threat, either the senate progressives strong labor support can’t be much But a third ticket headed by Huey Long is still a real possibility. I g AL SMITH AS G. O. P. HOPE? Roosevelt's liberal supporters expect @ genuine com- bination of conservative elements in both Democratic and Republican parties to align behind a conservative Re- publican ticket next year. Some of them actually be- eve & Democrat such as Al Smith or Lew Dougias might head that ticket—and mention of those two names is more than a pipe dream. The active force in any such combination probably would be the American Liberty League under Jouett Shouse, which has persistently pamphleteered against items of the Roosevelt program and is looked to for leadership by many conservatives over the country. forces works out, it’s more than a good bet that you'll find the American Federation of Labor leaping into politics next year on the Roosevelt side.

After all, eczema was always Greek to most of us, and teeter or salt rheum was no better. Dermatitis means simply inflammation of skin, and that is a diagnosis one can make without commiting onself. If this cagey or overcautious to your wiseacre lay mind, no matter. I believe a good doctor should not take for granted the nature, cause or proper treat- ment of any skin inflammation until he has studied the patient, the behavior of the trouble, the environment. A familiar feature of skin inflammation which was formerly considered characteristic of eczema is “weeping” or a watery discharge, and this fluid exudate on drying becomes sticky and then forms a crust. But it is still dermatitis, and there is no specific or typical form of skin trouble which can be distinguished from dermatitis under the name of “eczema.” The last of the old timers made an attempt to distinguish “eczema” from dermatitis by arbitrarily assuming that it is eczema if there is no visible or evident cause or irritant responsible for the skin inflammation, and dermititis if the cause is some obvious external irritant. But today no one quibbles about the name to apply, for what does it matter. when there is no specific Temedy or treatment for the trouble? troubles of children.
