Unions in Clash. eee Washington, Sept. 30.—More pressure than ever will be thrown into the convention of the American Fed- eration of Labor at Atlantic City, starting Oct. 7, looking to formation of a distinctive labor party. Certain of the more radical A. F. of L, affiliates have always wanted this, but the pressure is growing. Representative Ernest Lundeen, House Farmer-La- borite, says the following unions are favotable to a new Party and are ready to abandon the traditional A. F. of L. practice of supporting friends and defeating enemies within the old parties: Amalgamated Clothing Workers, Bakery and Con- féctionery Workers, Brewery Workers, Cloth Hat and Cap Makers, Fur Workers, Hotel and Restaurant Workers, Tron, Steel and Tin Workers, Jewelry Workers, Ladies’ Garment Workers, Lithographers, Pulp, Sulphite, and Paper Mill Workers, Patternmakers, Quarry Workers, Railway Clerks, Journeymen Tailors, Teachers, Textile Workers, Amalgamated Food Workers, and Railroad Trainmen. Even admitting that in some of these cases Lun- deen’s wish may have been at least stepfather to the thought, and that many members of all these unions may be less enthusiastic to the idea than Lundeen, enough of them will have a voice in A. F. of L. proceed- ings to make it plain that there will be plenty of labor party speeches at the convention, oe 10,000 RADIO ME iN JOIN tional unions such as have just been formed in auto- mobiles and rubber. One that you haven’t heard much about as yet is in the radio industry, where a youthful and peppery organizer, only about 26 years old, James B. Carey, has organized 10,000 radio workers into the Na- tional Radio and Allied Trades in Philadelphia, Buffalo, Cincinnati, Chicago, Terre Haute, Springfield, Mass., and New York City. Carey is going to bat for an international charter for radio workers, but has up to now been opposed by the Electrical Workers and Machinists, who claim jur- isdiction. Carey has promoted perhaps the most suc- cessful of the A. F. of L.'s federal unions, and will be hard to stop. Why the A. F. of L. tends to go slow with these new internationals is shown by the rubber workers, who re- fused to elect the federation’s organizer, Coleman Cla- herty, as their president, picking their own local man, 8. H. Dalrymple. eee PICKS BARBARIAN MODEL There has been some chuckling hereabouts at the last annual report of the very smooth and socialite Gen- eral Douglas MacArthur as chief of staff of the army. He one of the greatest natural stock raising ranges pf the world. It is of financial advantage to the farmer to have a market of this magnitude close to him. It means more money in his pockets twhen he does not have to sell at a point 275 miles farther east. It emphasizes the fact that North Dakota fn the future will not be taking a back seat to any of its neighbors to the south—South Da- kota, Nebraska, Kansas—in industrial develop- ment. It is to be hoped that North Dakota ap- preciates that the new stockyards means in- creased employment for North Dakotans, in- creased money for our farmers, increased taxes for our state, an increased incentive for other industries to locate here. In the past political experiments and poli- tical buccaneering have wreaked havoc with in- picks, in that report, his beau ideal of the great cap- tains, and who do you think it is? Why, none other than Genghis Khhn! There will also be spirited’ rows over new interna-|- eee DEATH ISSUE IS FANNED You haven't heard the last of the death of the 300 war veterans in the Florida hurricane. The most will be made of it in the coming campaign for the bonus when Congress reconveffes, and the Veterans of For- eign Wars and the Communists. are already making the most of it. The fact that both are drumming at it may make it necessary to find some official goat to sacrifice, after all. eee CIVIL WAR IN UNIONS It would be humorous if one of the first cases to go before the new labor board would be one against an in- ternational union. Chances are it will be squelched be- fore it gets there formally, but the local union here of Bookkeepers, Stenographers, Typists, and Assistants has sprung to the aid of three clerks fired by the interna- tional office of the Bricklayers, Masons, and Plas- terers. The fired clerks said they were getting as low as $12.50 a week and were fired for protesting about a pay cut restoration. Bricklayers say they were fired for economy reasons. eee HALF MILLION VETERANS DIE Speaking of World War veterans, there are only 4,178,887 of them left, according to Veterans’ Bureau fig- ures for July 1 of this year. Since 4,764,071 were in- dustrial progress. Scores of industries that looked upon North Dakota as an ideal field for establishing headquarters or branches here have shied away. It is significant in the light of Dr. Irvin Lavine’s WPA study of population trends in this state that the exodus of our young people. has been almost coincident with the political era during which industries have been afraid ‘to enter business here. To stop this emigra- tion, Dr. Lavine recommended the establish- ment of more industries in order that employ- ment would be available at home. The union stockyards enterprise is a step in this direction. If it prospers and grows with- out too much governmental hamastringing other industries are certain to follow its lead. We congratulate the stockyards company, the various commission firms and associated agencies on their expression of faith in North Dakota’s future. Nationalist Irony Some little time ago the Vienna police arrested 2 man for begging. Finding that he had come from Yugo- Glavia, they deported him to that country. ‘The Yugo-Slavs, however, decided that he was no citizen of their land, so they expelled him in the di- tection of Italy. The Italians wouldn’t have him, and chased him out of Italy with fixed bayonets. He had to spend three mortal days on a bridge be- What = commentary on today’s insane nationalism that story is!

(Copyright, 1935, NEA Service, Inc.) With Other DITORS Tax Exempts (Grand Forks Herald) It is “clearly interesting,” says President Roosevelt, that “the fifty-eight thriftiest people in the United States”—those with incomes of a million dollars or more in 1932—paid no income tax whatever on 37 per cent of their income, that proportion having been derived from federal, state and municipal tax-exempt securities. Maybe it is interesting to Mr. Roosevelt, says the Magazine of Wall Street, but in that part of the public mind which is sufficiently intelligent to see through. the shoddy politics of the present “soak the rich” campaign the only question that it provokes is: What of it? Is a wealthy individual to have sneering inferences of tax evasion thrown at him because he legally and properly avails himself of a privilege deliberately and purposely extended to him by government? The rich did not write that provision of the consti- tution which forbids the federal government to tax the Reprinted to show what they say. We may or may not agree with them. E Out wHere THe THar's WHERE THE WEST BEGING BANDCLASP'S A LITTLE STRONGER, OvuT WHERE THE SMILE DWELLS A LITTLE LONGER, OLITICS = at the - NATION'S CAPITOL By BYRON PRICE (Chief of Bureau, the Associated Press, Washington) An interesting new theory about the constitutional issue is taking root among some administration followers. It springs from a hope that partial supreme court approval for “New Deal” policies still may be attainable before next year’s election. Those who entertain such @ hope argue that the highest court really could not have intended its NRA de- cision to have the sweeping applica- tion commonly ascribed to it at the time. The argument, is, further, that the court had held on many previous occasions that there were circum- stances under which the federal gov- ernment could properly go into local communities and regulate industry; that the Schechter poultry case which served as a test for NRA was par- ticularly weak case from the govern- ment viewpoint; and that if the plea of national necessity were strongly presented under some other statute, the court might respond far more fa- vorably. i Such a development unquestion- ably would be most alluring to the Democratic strategists. They say it i|| would. remove Mr. Roosevelt's anx- jety about having to go back to the “horse and buggy days,” and enable his supporters to use to their own advantage all that the oppostition has been saying about upholding the constitution and the courts. The question is, can the court be expected to take such a path? Many administration men doubt it. xe % Long's ‘Political Estate’ First impressions about politics often are deceiving, and some of the pre- dictions which immediately followed the death of Huey Long are far from convincing. It is true that, as expected, Long's Louisiana political machine is show- ing signs of early disintegration. It is true that talk of building any income from bonds issued by states and municipalities. The rich did not induce the federal government to adopt the policy of tax exemption on its own issues of bonds. That was the government’s own idea, and there was a “clearly interesting” reason behind it: namely, that the government desired to make its bonds attractive to the thrifty and to borrow funds at low interest rates. This privilege voluntarily extended by the govern- ment has induced many wealthy investors to buy federal bonds at low yield. In accepting a low return from the government and in foregoing the higher return from tax- able securities these individuals have in effect paid a very considerable income tax. No administration has issued @ larger total of tax-exempt obligations than the present one, including the recent “baby bonds” urged upon the “thrifty” public. On its own enormous borrowings it can »| at any time stop selling tax-exempts—without constitu- tional amendment—if it is willing to pay higher interest. One can only conclude that seldom has so puny a mole- hill been distorted into a political mountain. The Whispering Campaign (Glen Ullin News) It seems to be the greatest delight to some people to see others suffer innocently. They seem to enjoy the discomfiture of some of their neighbors and citizens when watching the workings of some scandal they have started. We have unable to find out just why some people will iberately besmirch the character of Hi is iss effective third party around the ma- chine has almost disappeared. The political organization which held Louisiana so tightly in its grip was not, however, the whole of Long's Political estate. He also left to pos- terity a legacy of unrest and longing, having visible and tangible form through the medium of his “share- our-wealth clubs,” organized locally in many communities, The wide preview of the movement was evidenced when the caddies at a mountain golfing resort in Pennsyl- vania, where this writer happened to be vacationing, solemnly lowered the country club flag to half-staff at the news of Long's death. It will be some time before anyone can say how much of this sentiment will survive, or into what new chan- nels new leaders may turn it eventu- ally. Certainly all proof lacking that it will wither and blow away just because the individual who inspired it has gone i ual a G. O.

The night was coo] and Ruth had just blown out her candle and pulled a blanket up to her chin when the door of the room opened and the old woman came in. She said, “1 just came to say goodnight, Miss Elaine, and to tell you something. Tomorrow’s my birthday—" “Really, Penny?” “Yes, Miss Blaine. I'll be 75. That's a kind of milestone in body's life.

She thought, “I ought to stay with her, poor thing! Of course I ought!" Then her natural honesty asserted itself and she faced her motives. “But I want to stay anyway. I'm happy here. There’s comfortable shelter and wood food—and there’s John Mo Neti! next door.” Suddenly her decision was made. She would stay on—in the vernacu: , lar—fust as long as “the staying was good.” She safd, “Well, Penny, it’s an occasion, isn’t it? I'll save the ‘bappy birthday’ till tomorrow and we'll make a day of it!” “Yes, Miss Blaine.” replied Penny, greatly pleased. “You're sweeter than you used to be. I like to have you with me Couldn't you somehow make it s longer visit?” “How long?” asked Ruth experi mentally. “Your letter said 2 week, Miss Blaine. Couldn't you double it?” “Maybe,” replied Ruth recklessly.

The healthy young child growing and playing hard as @ healthy should play, needs and should have plenty of sugar. Sugar is not only for muscle energy btit it sustains the heart, too, for the heart is a mi The form in which sugar is taken is immaterial. Straight sugar, syrup, mo: lasses, honey, candy, ice cream, sweet chocolate, sweetened sweet fruits or their juices, cane sugar, malt (maltose, malt sugar) Gex- trose, glucose, lactose (milk sugar), Jevulose and fructose (the. of fruit and of honey)—all the fancy theories and fads about one sugar being bet- ter than others for babies, invalids or the like are just fads. Besides children’ who play hard every day, adults who do any sort of honest work daily should have plenty of sugar or sweets. By honest work I mean muscular labor, piay or exercise: For instance, the girl who walks to work—excuse it, please, I mean business—or the woman who does the iron- ing or washing or housecleaning, or the man who mows his own lawn and polishes his own car can indulge in these delectables. p On the other hand the stenographer whose makeup forbids takirig oxy- gen on the hoof, or the housewife who has a slavey in her service, or the man who takes in a-show or a ball game while his car is being washed or his gardening done by the chauffeur, must eschew that extra sundae or bit of candy or cake or drink. Sugar and sedentary habit are incompat- ible. Obesity annd diabetes are the penalties of trying to combine them. As Dr. Frederick M. Allen explains it in his little book “Diabetes and Its Treatment” (Funk & Wagnalls, New York), high body weight imposes the maximum strain upon the function of the islands of Langerhans in the pancreas (they secrete insulin), and,thus any tendency to diabetes is in- creased to the utmost. And Joslin, noting the overweight which usually precedes development of diabetes, observes that the development of diabetes in an adult who is below average weight is a rarity. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Michigan Hay Fever Living near Detroit I am's great sufferer from hay fever. Could I get away from it by moving to Pennsylvania? (Mrs, W. H. 8.) Answer—Only Mrs. W. H. 8. can answer your question—by visiting the contemplated place of residence during the season and learning whether * she finds relief there. The Upper Peninsula affords relief to many victims from out of the state of Michigan and from the Infernal Regions of the state. Pocono, Eaglesmere, Bradford, in Pennsylvania, are good resorts for hay fever victims. Duluth, Minnesota, and just the Great Lakes boat trip may bring relief. Every hay fever sufferer is a rule unto himself— whether he finds relief of course depends on whether his particular pollen is in the air of the region. si (Copyright, 1935, John F, Dille Co.) ‘Rachel . © 1906 NEA Seren ton, , ber afternoon at “What about your plans for the; Ohio campaign?” asked Hortense casual “I've put things in motion,” Elaine told her. “I wrote to the old caretaker—Penny, we call her and told her I wanted to come on fora week's'rest.
