Not Adequate On the very day that Governor Welford had proclaimed start of a month of safety driving in { iNorth Dakota, on the state’s most heavily trav- eled traffic artery, another human paid the pen- alty of automobile speed. Horrifying pictures, gruesome detailing of ; automobile fatalities, speed laws, traffic regula- tion, special patrolmen, driving education, mo- torists’ licenses, all the other presumable safe- guards that have been thrown about the man who sits behind hurtling death seem fruitless. But out of every accident comes a recom- mendation of what is necessary to hold acci- dents to a minimum. Sunday’s tragedy on Me- morial highway between Bismarck and Man- dan re-emphasizes the necessity for widening this popular and necessary thoroughfare. Over the span of years since the highway ‘was first thrown open to use has come a series of fatal automobile accidents. No year has gone by that has seen less than two persons killed on iits concrete stretch. A study of these deaths reveals one major cause—speed. Either too lit- tle speed or too much speed. | Back in 1928 two persons were killed in one accident. The driver of the car was not reck-! less. He was not drunk. His motor, brakes, | wheels and other mechanical appurtenances were in good condition. He turned out to pass al car that was creeping along in front of him, a} driver holding up a long string of cars behind him. The man who turned out of the lane crashed into a car coming from the other direc- | tion. Memorial highway was not intended to be = pO jcies. Some of these have met with considerable success. THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, WEDNES ehind the Scenes in Washington By WILLIS THORNTON a oO Bar Association’s New Deal Probe May Touch Off Bomb Just Before 1936 Election... Glory Gone From Hoover's Rapidan Camp... CCC Roster Grows Rap- idly ... Safeguard WPA Workers, Washington, Sept. 18.—What is likely to turn into a slapbang pre-election attack on the New Deal is brewing in the American Bar association. Many months ago, a committee was appointed to look into what present-day legislation is doing to the constitution. This committee was to have made a re- port to the convention of the bar association this sum- mer. But, due to disagreement among committee mem- bers—not.so much on their opinions as to constitutional- ity of New Deal legislative acts and methods, as on the manner of expressing those opinions—the report was not made. The committee was given more time. So it is now to report Nov. 1 to the executive committee and the general council of the association, which will consider the report this winter. Then, next August, the report will be considered at the association's annual meeting. bed Oddly enough, that is just the heat not only of sum- mer, but of the presidential campaign of 1936, and while, of course, the report will be judicial and non-partisan, it will certainly fall at a time when many will see it as a campaign document. The head of the committee is George Wharton Pep- per of Philadelphia, who was appointed to the senate to succeed Boies Penrose and who is a former member of the Republican national committee. GLORY GONE FROM RAPIDAN Whether or not grass grew in the streets, it is grow- ing gaily at the Rapidan camp of former President Hoover. Navy Secretary Swanson is chief of such of the official set as have frequented the camp this summer. Those who have been there say the camp has fallen somewhat into decay, as compared to the days when Hoover and Premier Ramsay MacDonald sat on a log there to talk disarmament and debts. When the Hoovers moved out, the camp was turned over to the state of Virginia, and is now administered as part of Shenandoah National Park. All the more elab- orate furniture has been moved out, and only cot beds, a few wicker chairs, and rough furniture made by the marines remain. Roofs show patching. And as a final touch, the trout streams have been pretty well fished out by the boys from nearby CCC camps. Ses CCC ENROLLMENT BOOMS Speaking of CCC camps, there are now 2,551 of them, as compared to 1,640 a short 10 weeks ago. Although the increased enrollment authorized by the last session of congress was somewhat slow in reaching par, it has now mounted to 517,000 of the approximately 600,000 author- ized. Excluding the Indians and territorial enrollments, 502,000 of these are young men and veterans. During those last 10 weeks, more than a quarter million men have entered the corps, and 911 new camps have been built. Of these, 229,509 were young men of from 18 to 28 years selected by the department of labor, 23,805 came from the veterans’ administration, and 9,188 were locally enrolled men selected by the departments of agriculture and interior. { To date, since the corps was established in April, 1933, more than 1,300,000 men have been enrolled for terms of service averaging eight months. ‘ Many communities report efforts to organize dis- charged CCC “veterans” in associations in their home towns, in social groups, or impromptu employment agen- eee SEEK SAFETY FOR WPA { Every effort is being made to safeguard the WPA! jobs from industrial accidents. Safety experts in every local community where projects are approved will be on the job. The CWA program of 1933 didn’t result in as heavy losses from accidents as was expected. The U. S. employment compensation commission was given $25,000,000 to take care of such. Now it doesn’t expect to need more than $7,500,000 of it. Apparently the CWA was safer than its best friends thought.

Fatal acci- i dents have proven that it should have both a minimum and a maximum speed law. They have proven the necessity for its widening.

Even the youngest North Dakotan showing his initial interest in grain prices has not forgotten what drouth can do. But he may not recollect what a major war's effect may be. Twenty years ago the World war had primed the worth of grain as it had not been for many years. ; ,And they continued to mount through 1918 when wheat touched $3 per bushel on some markets of the world. j It is not unreasonable to believe there will be a repe- tition of this price movement if a war of widespread | involvement sweeps Europe. Wars require armies. Armies require men. And they are recruited largely at the ex- | pense of farm populations of the nations involved. The | result is that fewer men on the farms plus more hungry \ mouths in the army, drain grain reserves quickly. And prices advance as the demand increases. ‘Tuesday's price advance was not confined just to the United States” It was recorded on all other impor- tant grain trading exchanges of the world. In Canada, in England, in the Argentine, in European countries there ‘Was a collective ascension of values. In the United States and the Argentine it is probable that speculative de- mand was responsible. But in Canada, England, France, Italy and other world centers, more than speculative de- mand probably was accountable. That demand could be due solely to the fixation of the idea that war is imminent and that food purveyors of those nations most likely to mobilize have begun to store grain against the day when their farms will be denuded of both tillers and crops. While it is a source of joy for the North Dakota farmer who has been able to store his grain for » rise dn’ prices, it must be = source of agony for those farmers in other countries, who reading between the lines of war _ néws, know that they may not live to enjoy the fruits of thelr toll | ‘The Prince of Wales has had » book published on “@port and Travel in East Africa.” Frankly we are dis-"| appointed.

But it is not mere cynicism which suggests that the League to which this pledge is given no longer exists. Sir Samuel's commitment is not to the actual organization at Geneva; it is to the ideal League which he describes but which has never been brought into being. To be a functioning instrumentality of world peace and order, the League would have to fulfill the charac- teristics which he assigns to it. It would have to be a living association whose “members have in combination with each other the will.and power to apply the principles of the covenant.” It would have to be in reality prepared not only to guarantee peace but to provide “for modifica- tion by consent and by peaceful means of international conditions whose continuance might endanger peace.” To achieve this {t woild not, perhaps, have to become an actual superstate; but it would certainly have to equip itself with the power to adjust such problems as that of the free and equitable distribution of colonial raw ma- | terials, which Sir Samuel uses as an illustration. It would | hhave to be capable of that much at least. Yet one glance | at the real world is enough to show the utter impossibility even of the attempt. | Sir Samuel is summoning the League to become a | League when it is already too late. It is conceivable that Italy may still submit to an international solution of the Ethiopian question; but even this will not now transform Geneva into that functioning instrument of a collective will to regulate international society by peaceful means to which Sir Samuel pledges Great Britain’s support. The tenor of the speech is to put pressure upon the other powers to bring this ideal League into actual existence. But none of the great powers, not even Great Britain, has ever shown itself in the past really prepared to accept the implications inherent in such a League. It is too late now, and one suspects that the real effect of the speech will be to relieve the British government (both at home and abroad) from responsibility for the failure which now seems inevitable. Pledging her alfegiance to what remains an ideal, Great Britain adopts a position no less sincere because it leaves her singularly free to shape her policy as seems best toward the realities, which are likely to be dealt with elsewhere than on the floor of the League A test reveals that men can put on brakes faster than women.

Washington — It’s an axiom, fa- miliar to politicians, political writers and observers of the “great game” in general, that the brickbats which land with the most telling force in who are in private close personal friends. The classic example. of this sort of thing around Washington was the association of Nick Longworth, late speaker of the house, and “Cactus Jack” Garner, Democratic leader of the house while Longworth lived. In the senate, another striking ex- ample was afforded by Pat Harrison of Mississippi, and Jim Watson of/ Indiana, formerly “wheelhorse” for! the Republican old regulars. | The clashes by these four in the! political arena were fearful things| te an outsider. Frequently after such encounters, they left the floor of the house or senate arm in arm. a a Bitter Friends The most recent manifestation of friendly enemies is provided by two Tecognized experts in the art of Political propaganda—Charles Mich- elson, director of publicity for the Democratic national committee, and Robert H. Lucas, of the Republican national committee. Michelson has turned columnist for the Democratic committee. Every week there goes out under his name from committee headquarters in oo By HERBERT PLUMMER \times as many Republicans holding politics are those exchanged by men; Washington a blistering reply to criticism and critics of the Roosevelt administration, In one he lets fly at “my old friend, Colonel Lucas” for insinuating “that the Roosevelt administration’ was filling the government. offices with | Democrats. ;.. “Actually there are perhaps ten jobs under this administration as | there were Democrats under the pre-| jceding administration,” said Michel-7 |son, then turned his guns on Lucas | himself. i ** x | Just in Fun | He recalled the part Lucas is al- | leged to have played in placing the |name of the obscure grocery clerk, George Norris, on the ticket in Nebraska in an attempt to defeat Senator George Norris. “I don’t know that it was exclusively the wrath of Nebraska at the effort that deprived Mr. Hoover of the state,” he! observes, “but it helped some.”- There were other references to Lucas’ activities, all calculated to make “my friend, the Colonel,” squirm, Whether Lucas squirmed as he read Michelson’s jibes is not a matter of record. If the truth were known, however, it probably would be that Republican Lucas called Democrat Michelson on the phone after read- ing the piece and arranged a meeting later, perhaps at the National Press club, for some good-natured kiddify at each others’ expense.

Two weeks later the patient received only 10 and § units of insulin, and 26 drops of test solution was required to demonstrate any sugar. After three weeks of plurivitamin therapy (the vi- tamin ration included all of the vitamins in their natural proportions, that is, as vitamins occur in nature) the patient received only one dose of 5 units of insulin daily, and it required 39 drops of test solution to show sugar in the urine, That brings the record up to the present date. ‘The vitamin ration in this instance effected a saving of 30 units of in- sulin daily, to say nothing of the marked improvement in general Well being and resiliency. Theoretically it is mainly vitamin B or B complex (B and G) which pro- motes better carbohydrate metabolism, better utilization of sugars and starches in the body, but practically it seems that when given singly or in artificial mixtures of two or three vitamins they are less effective than when given in well balanced combinations, perhaps because that’s the way they grow. One authority (Kuhnau) compares the interaction of the vitamins to the interlocking of the cog wheels of a watch. Numerous investigators and clinicians (such as Takahashi, Harris, Kollath, Jusatz, Redewell—never mind the names, folks, I just want to make it clear these are not merely my peculiar notions) have shown the overlapping of the functions of the vita- mins and how each is dependent more or less on others to perform its work in the economy. As doctors say, the vitamins are. synergistic; or as biolo- gists say they are symbiotic; and as I say, we should use ‘em as nature pro- vides them. I have repeatedly recommended insulin treatment for individuals who are underweight and low in vitality. Now I wish to amend that. I believe such persons should have an optional vitamin ration for at least a month before they resort to insulin. “QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Diabetes and Menstruation Does diabetes have anything to do with failure of menses to appear in a girl 15 years of age?
