Should Be Heeded Residents of North Dakota, particularly its farm folk and dwellers in the smaller towns, would do well to heed the warning of John O. Quinn, assistant fire marshal, that the present Season presents a fire hazard unprecedented in recent years. This matter first was called to the attention of The Tribune a month ago and by it was called to the attention of the people. But the warning cannot be reiterated too often. The matter should be given serious thought and made the basis for ACTION. A fire guard plowed now may be the means of saving both lives. and property later this fall or during the winter and early spring. Even if fall rains come the prairie will be dry as tinder during most of the winter if not cov- ered by snow. A carelessly thrown match or cigarette stub, even the striking of a horse’s shoe against a rock may cause untold damage. Once started, a prairie fire might sweep wide areas because of the heavy growth of grass and weeds during the summer. As point- ed out by Mr. Quinn, wheat fields which remain uncut offer a definite hazard. And in plowing fire guards or making other provision, it would be well to make them extra large, do the job unusually well. Men who have had wide experience point out that, on the wings of a brisk wind, the fire demon can jump over wide spaces. It would be well to remem- ber that. It Will Be Hard to Do Among the curious proposals now being discussed by Politicians opposed to the Roosevelt administration is one to run Henry Ford for president and Lewis W. Douglas, former budget director under Roosevelt, for vice presi- dent. ‘The proposal was advanced by a group of University of Pennsylvania professors and Charles R. Michael, writ- dng in the New York Times, says it will come up for dis- cussion at the next session of the Republican national committee. At the same time, the professors asserted that the People are looking to the G. O. P. to change its methods and to unseat the leaders who were connected with them. ‘The same opinion is voiced by many seasoned commen- tators. Samuel G. Blythe declares that the party must cut out its dead wood. Mark Sullivan echoes the senti- ment. Many others are in line for this change. But suggestion of this course to the Republican na- tional committee is more than faintly ridiculous. The national committee always is the stronghold of the old guard in any political party—and the Republican organi- zation is no exception. For these men to launch the process of cutting out the dead wood and ridding the Party of ancient ideas would be to turn the scalpel upon themselves, It seems hardly reasonable that they would do it, If the Republican party is to have a re-birth, as some contend is both desirable and necessary, the urge for it will have to come from another source and the movement will succeed only over the determined oppo- sition of present party leaders. Those hard-headed individuals are not likely to soon forget the counsel of the late Boies Penrose that, as com- pared with retaining control of the party machinery, the ‘winning of an election is of small consequence. It Will Take Time ‘Those who look forward to an immediate collapse of the political empire which Huey Long built up in Lou- isiana probably are due for a disappointment. Roughly speaking, it required seven years to make and it seems only reasonable to assume that an equal length of time will be required for its disintegration. In such Gituations, self-interest on the part of the leaders has a tendency to hold the organization together. Under Long, the ideas which he expressed were dominant. Lesser lights served themselves by serving him. chind the Scenes Merrily We in Washington RODNEY DUTCHER Roll Along! ‘Washington, Sept, 11.—AAA has come in for plenty of criticism for its past callousness toward consumers, all of which your correspondent has reported faithfully and zealously. But it must be said for Secretary Wallace and Ad-| *‘ ministrator Chester Davis that, even though at times they may have succumbed to pressure of combinations of food industry lobbyists, farm group lobbyists, and poli- ticians who figured the consumer could go hang, they have persisted in appointing able, honest, and aggressive men to represent consumer interests in AAA councils. Anyone who has watched this government operate for a few years must be surprised that they haven't ap- pointed complacent, easy-going jobholders who could be depended on not to annoy them. The new consumers’ counsel at AAA is Donald Mont- gomery, who succeeds Dr. Calvin B. Hoover, who suc- ceeded Dr. Fred C. Howe. Montgomery is just as active and conscientious as his predecessors and just as determined to see that con- sumers get the best possible break under a program which necessarily jacks up food prices. He was a naval ensign in the World war, was a& class- mate of Calvin Hoover's at the University of Wisconsin, served with a Wisconsin commission which was a sort of state version of the federal trade commission, joined the FTC here and participated importantly in its investiga- tion of chain stores, was switched to SEC, where he helped frame registration regulations, and eventually was recruited to AAA by Hoover as the latter's assistant. | HE’LL UPHOLD CONSUMER Montgomery will follow Hoover's policy of constantly nudging AAA chiefs and reminding them of the con- sumer. If you happen to be one of those consumer per- sons, you can well afford to take a bow to the departing Hoover, who urged Montgomery as his successor and 18) ae going back to his professorial job at Duke univer- sity. Hoover finally persuaded the administration that it should maintain a policy of refusing to cut down sup- plies of food below those normally available for domestic consumption. Nobody paid much attention to his words, but Wal- lace recently enunciated the Hoover policy—a milestone for AAA—as follows: “Two things we want to be sure of. One is. that there will be the same quantity of food per capita avail- able to the American people as during the decade of the ‘20s; that is, that we.take care of the consumer. The second is that quantities available in excess of that, for which foreign purchasing power is no longer available, should not be produced.” And if AAA starts to forget the first part of that, Montgomery will be there to remind it. eee OBVIOUS POLITICAL PLUM | ee | Appointment of Democratic National Committeeman OL] ] ICS Vincent Miles to the social security board is an obvious oretate-< They did.

AAA officials, like every one else, were confident congress would ad- journ on the night of Saturday, August 24.

Dr. Lewis J. Silvers, New York. Tt was seeing what this gifted surgeon was able to accomplish with diathermy that convinced me of the value of this method of removing tonsils some years ago.. And it is thanks to his skill and patience as many other physicians have learned and now employ ‘This s Sew tk mmon but most annoying time I him treat @ rather col most condition, called xan' fot yellow plates or nodules in the skin, the eyelids.

Of course this child was a remarkably well trained child, but the demonstra- tion proved that, in skilled hands, diathermy extirpation of the tonsils is not even formidable for the patient. Alas, many hands are not so skilled, and many doctors are not so patient. But I dare say there are scores ‘and scores of doctors who learned the technic under Dr. cries neste ieee thermy and with uniform satisfaction to patients. For Saenokds, it otters & mearts of relieving the obstruction to breath- ing and removing the obstacle to normal development of nose, teeth, jaw, chest and body, without the risk of a major operation, general anesthesia, possible hemorrhage, possible abscess or extension of infection and damage to ears. It serves excellently, too, to dispose of portions of adenoids left behind when the usual tonsil and adenoid operation is done. 4 E QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Pectin Friend suggests using pectin in making jelly, saying it produces better and more jelly for the same amount of fruit and sugar. Is it harmful? (M. M. 8.) Answer—It is wholesome enough. I'd prefer less jelly in the genuine than more of the make-believe. Ate Doctors Friends? Three months ago had operation for abscessed appendix. The appendix could not be removed at the time, but the incision is all healed and I am in good health. Doctor says I should return to hospital to have it removed now. Friends say that isn’t necessary. (C. H. G.) Answer—They can remove it more satisfactorily in the hospital than they could in the morgue or mortuary hall. In some cases the appendix is destroyed by the abscess. ee “ Styes In youth much mortified by frequent styes. Finally some one suggested camphor—touching the eye lids with spiritis of camphor, of course with the eyes closed for a few minutes. One such application at night usually put an end toa stye. Have told several sufferers about this and they have all praised it. (C. W. G.) Answer—Thank you. It is a good remedy. Harmless, too, though it would smart if any of it gets into the eye.

Signs of Yielding (Valley City Times-Record) We just imagine that down in his heart Mussolini realizes that he has made a great mistake’ in conducting his offensive movement against Ethiopia. He did not count on the furious storm of criticism raised over the civilized world by his proposal to go and take the terri- tory of a neighbor nation by sheer fotce. He made this Proposal very frankly, using the argument that Italy needed the oil which is to exist underneath the surface in Ethiopia. It seems not to have come to his mind that the rest of the world would care what he did to a bunch of black men or how he did it. But he has found out that world opinion is a much more powerful a adversary than he supposed.

He now plan which would give Italy some Ethiopian territory, similar to that which Britain once held over Iraq. Whether the plan could be made to work or not or whether Mussolini will accept any plan which might be devised is not so important as is the fact that the braggart and blusterer has softened his tone. Once he sees a way out by which he can save his face and maintain his prestige he will probably take it, rather than incur the risk of open war with world sentiment against him, and with the frowning war boats of Britain lolul NIEIAIRISINOIAIWEELA] 0 clAlRIS[EMNOIRIAMEML sy EVIE ME AINiOlOl INE} isle} 60 BOS s iT iAte ly!
