Fortune does not change men; it only un- masks them.—Riccoboni. | | Through Thick and Thin Augurs more optimistic than have pre- vailed the last few years mark the opening of | the 13th annual North Dakota state corn show here today. The crop this year was far better than has been the case the last three seasons. There will be ample grain to feed our sharply reduced number of hogs and plenty came to maturity to provide an adequate seed supply. Last year farmers got $5 a bushel or more for home- grown seed. This year the acreage was reduced but indi-| cations are that the yield was from fair to good, thus again proving corn to be one of the most stable crops in our agricultural setup. On the whole, it has proved more resistant to drouth than has wheat and, even though it is not im- mune to damage by pests, it is never subject to rust. The original idea for a corn show was based on recognition of the economy practiced by In- dians in this area long before the first white men came. The native inhabitants had fields | of maize which formed an important part of | their food supply. It was upon corn that Lewis and Clark largely depended when they wintered here in 1804-05. Thirteen years ago the cry for diversifica- tion in farming rang feebly through the land but many farmers were planting some corn andj were proud of their achievements. It was only natural that the best of them should join with economists who regarded wheat as a curse! rather than a blessing because it had made this a one-crop land, in trying to promote more gen- eral interest. The state corn show was a result. At times ft has had the benefit of a state appropriation. At others it hasn't. But always the corn show| has remained in existence, sometimes on a pre- | tentious scale and sometimes on a much more modest basis. The good it has done can scarcely be calcu-| lated. Its possibilities for advancing the eco-| nomic interests of the state have barely been touched. Because of it fewer farmers are putting all of their eggs in one basket. More men on the land are fitted to cope with the changing con- ditions which they must continually face. The man who has corn and livestock always has something to sell even when the wheat crop fails. To Bismarck, of course, the corn show is a traditional harvest festival, one which we ask the whole state to share with us. Up to now, it has been our nearest approach to old home week, and as such, as well as because of its eco- nomic importance, it has always commanded | enthusiastic local support. The program this fall is one of the most j pretentious in several years and, because of the better crop and generally improved eonditions, it should attract wider interest. To every. exhibitor and every visitor Bis-| marck takes pride and pleasure in saying wel- come. | Outside the Law Some of the queerest situations in the history of the criminal courts have been recorded as a result of Uncle Sam's campaign against men who fail to pay their income taxes, ‘The way in which such men as Al Capone, who were never touched for their various flagrant law violations, were finally imprisoned because they did not pay taxes on their iilegal earnings, is still a matter of recent mem- ory. And now the trial of Abe Shushan, former Huey “Leng aide, in New Orleans, has added another gem. _ Shushan was accused of evading income taxes. His ‘@efense hinged on the contention that he obtained his | Money wrongfully, hence had no legal title te it and © was not responsible for income taxes on it. | | vitally important. ehind the Scenes | in Washington By RODNEY DUTCHER “Ingredients Have Gone Up!’ Bakers Reply. But Secre- Justified and Says Processing Tax Can't Be Made see Washington, Oct. 24.—If there were trustworthy fig- ures as to the cost of making a loaf of bread, the merits of the battle between Secretary Wallace and the baking companies over increased bread prices might be more easily decided. It's all very technical and complicated. But bread prices are likely to be a political issue and certainly they're causing plenty of excitement here at the moment, so perhaps you'd better know the facts. The national average price per pound of bread was 64 cents in early 1933. It had increased to 83 cents by July, 1934, and remained at about that figure until the current boosts of one to two cents a loaf. The original increase was considered more than enough to cover the half cent in processing taxes, the higher costs of in- gredients, and still leave three-quarters of a cent for added labor costs and larger profits, Thus Wallace tries to laugh off the claim that the latest increase is due to that favorite goat of food- makers, the processing tax. But he has to admit that the cost of ingredients—flour, sugar, malt, shortening and dried milk—has advanced in the last year. So he says that no more than a maximum of half a cent in- j crease is justified and that a general one cent increase means $60,000,000 or more of added profit for bakers. eae IT MAY BE LESS re What Wallace doesn’t know is just how much less than half a cent of increase is justified by higher costs.’ His figures, showing that the cost of flour in a pound of| bread is 35-100ths of a cent higher and shortening 13- 100ths of a cent up, are computed on an old base with the assumption that bakers still use the same propor- tion of high-grade hard wheat flour as in other years and the same amount and quality of shortening. Over in Baltimore the most expensive kind of bread flour rose $1.20 a barrel between January and October. But the cheapest type of bread flour went up only 10 cents a barrel. (A barrel makes 300 pounds of bread.) The Wallace estimates were based on use of the most. expensive flours. But bakers usually use a larger percentage of the soft wheat flour when its price is low in relation to price of hard wheat flours, eee CHALLENGE TO BAKERS The AAA can’t tell the extent of this use recently— and the effect on costs—because it has no access to the books of baking companies, If the average cost of mak- ing a loaf of bread has increased only @ quarter or a third of a cent, it’s a secret to officials here. All AAA can do is ask the bakers to submit their cost figures or challenge them to explain to the consum-.| ing public. Which isn’t always a safe procedure, as was indicated recently when the Department of Agriculture found that a certain large packing company apparently had reported about three times as large a profit to the SEC as it had to the department under the packers and stockyards act. Bakers, for instance, contend their costs for short- ening have gone up 300 per cent, whereas AAA can't see how it could possibly have been more than 70 per cent. It’s hard for the innocent bystander to solve this seeming discrepancy. oe PROFITS ARE UP The Wall Street Journal reports that business with baking companies has been better, in most instances, this year than last. General Baking up to October showed an increase in net earnings from $1,233,510 to $1,383,910, and Ward Baking for the first half year improved from a net loss of $3,895 for the same period last year to $320,397 of net profit. Continental Baking, on the other hand, fell from $836,992 in profits to $736,- 587. You won't get much of this detail when the po- liticians start hollering about the price of bread. Poli- ticians have a lovely way of simplyfying things. AAA has plenty for which to answer, but it also has the uncomfortable assurance that it will have to answer for plenty for which it isn’t to blame. The recent blast of the National Restaurateurs Association— promising to discourage consumption of pork foods, blaming the government entirely for high meat prices and completely ignoring the big drouth—was a case in point.

Lo} ee — ——8 Resettlement (Valley City Times-Record) The announcement yesterday in the Times-Record that the work of the resettlement administration in Barnes county has been formally organized will be of work is put in charge of Alden Baillie and T. X. Calnan, assisted by a county committee of carefully selected and experienced men, all of whom know a good deal about the practical side of farming. The problem is the re- establishment of farmers who have lost out and who now must have help if they are to remain on the farm. The method to be taken is to judge of the applicant’s “desire, character, and ability to repay the loan,” which is to be given by the federal government. And the ob- jective to be reached is to establish those who are helped, so that they will henceforth be on a self-sustaining basis. Considering the handicaps which our farmers have been meeting, this is a very large order. If the county committee could guarantee to each farmer who is freed from his pressing present financial burdens a reasonable price for what he produces it would not be very long until he would be able to solve his problems without any help; but even such an able committee as has been se- lected cannot offer any such guarantee. What they can do is to come to the aid of a great many farmers who have done their best and still have been beaten by cir- cumsfances outside their control. The committee must do this in the hope that sometime the adverse circum- stances which have beaten the honest and intelligent farmer will be overcome and he will be given a reason- able chance to take care of himself financially. But the committee must deal in a practical way with the question of who has the desire, character, and ability to repay the loan. That is the human side of it, and is Situations among farmers as indi- viduals are extremely various, as they are among any other group of citizens. The difficulty with government help is that each and every citizen feels entitled to it regardless of his past history. We are now living, and have for some time been living, under the theory that all personal failings are wiped out by the forgiving wave of Uncle Sam’s hand. The slogan, “Every man a king, has actually been adopted by some groups, though what use we have for kings in a democracy is hard to see. We don’t like to be graded and we resent the grading pro- cess which circumstances force upon us; and we think we have found a way to avoid it.

The fears and uneasiness she had felt for him during his concealment in the house had caused her to be come almost deranged. For years ehe had both dreaded and tonged for his escape. This terrifying hope had culminated on the ‘night when he reached the blue door. + . . And now be had gone. Not to live a fugitive’s existente but to win his freedom. to come back to this house @ oormal man, with work to do Uke other men. From the hour of Duncap Hun- ter'’s peaceful departure that morning Bertha was never again to be more than a loyal old servant who bad had enough of loneliness. She had held the fort. _ As for Elaine Chalmers, she spent a restless day. John’s indit- ference to her, his criticism of ber conduct infuriated her. She trem- bled when she thought of him. Standing before her mirror that day she renewed her vow to con- quer him. “That girl's the cause of it!” she thought angrily. Well, defeat could be turned into victory if you went about !t properly. She'd use the little tramp as a means of reach: ing John McNeill. “I'll be sympa thetic.” she decided. “I'll join the search.” She watched for John to return home. Dusk was falling when his car turned into the driveway and she saw him get out and go into the house. Blaine quickly slipped into a coat and ran acrosg the lawn. He opened the door at her ring. “John,” she said in a soft husky voice, “is there any news of her?” The girl's sympathy reached him. as a woman's sympathy will reach any man. He believed her to be as Tepetitant and concerned as she looked. “Sit down,” he urged. “I'll , tell you what I know.” They sat together on the old Empire sofa and he noticed how strikingly beautiful she was. She had intended him to notice it. There was a heady. provocative berfume about her that no man could ignore—loveliness at several dollars an ounce. Elaine said urgently, “Tell me all you know, John. I’ve been ra- ther a little beast. Will you find. her, do you think?” “I believe I will,” he answered eagerly, “We're on the trail A Cleveland detective agency checked all the hotels and lodging houses— especially the cheap ones — but there wasn’t a trace. ° Then they set to work on the theory that some one might have noticed her on the road Tuesday morning.

John ez- cused himself hastily to answer it. Elaine could not hear what he said, but she suspected that .be was speaking with a detective. “Well?” she asked when he had sat down beside her again. He said, in an elated voice, “They think they’ve found her! They've located the Segwicks. The Seg: wicks admit picking up such a girl and taking her in to Cleveland. They said she was broke and they got her a job, working as a maid for some woman who owns a beauty shop — taking care of the woman’s kids. They'll know in half an hour if she’s the girl.” Elaine thought, “So he's found her! Well, {t's better this way. He’d have been obsessed about her if she'd gotten away. Men are like that. He must bring her back here to the Hunter house. To me He must see us together; that’s my only chance.” She asked, “Did you make any provision against her running away again? Suppose she refuses to come with the detectives?” He explained. “That's why they called before they'd finished the job. They wanted instructions. I told them to pretend to arrest her and bring her back here. Would you mind sticking around with me till she comes?” Blaine would not mind. She went home only long enough to tell Penny she was having dinner with John McNeill and to change into a dinner dress — something pale green and draped by a Pari. eian expert. Over her short hair she pinned a heavy golden plait that made her look like Everyman's First Sweetheart. She threw a short ermine cape around her (that was to remind John that she was stil) Blaine Chalmers, the glamorous) and went back to him, They had dinner to gether under Susie's popping eyes. After dinner Bjaine played for him on the big piano that used to be Florence's, and sang al) the songs that he asked for from the Princeton Triangle plays. Now and then he got up and walked to the window or the door and looked! out. Now and then he paced the floor. Elaine would talk to him then about the girl they were wait- ing for... Once sho said teasingly, “And you don’t even know her name!” * “But I do now!” he declared, like an eager boy. “It’s Ruth Woodson. The télephone call ¢on- firmed that.” He told her then about the night they were arrested for speeding en route to the Mountain Cabin, and how she had given. that name to the trafic cop. He said, “When I Sarage|was thinking {t over today, the bunch came to me that that was her own name, Ruth Woodson.” “Ruth Woodson,” echoed Blaine thoughtfully. Mentally she com- bared it with Blaine Chalmers and She looked up at him intimately. He had only to bend his head to kiss her . . . and suddenly che knew that he had no desire to kiss her, His thoughts were miles away. When a car came into the grounds and stopped before the Porch they both experienced nerv- ousness and panic. John opened the door. Two men entered with a white-faced. defiant girl between them. She, too. was frightened, and it was her fright that made John forget his own. “Ruth!” he said to her quickly. “You're not being arrested. It was just a way to get you back here. The only way we knew—" She said, looking at Blaine and then back at him again, “Why did you want me to come back?” “Don’t you know?” “No,” answered Ruth, tiredly and wistfully. She could not keep her love for him out of her face, out of her voice. Elaine moved closer, so that she stood beside the dishevelled girl in the cheap tweed suit that had been shrunken by rain. She thought, “He must see us together. He must look at us standing here. With his eyes, With his senses.. With bis mind. He must see us together—" He did. His arms reached for Ruth hungrily. He kissed her mouth, her chin, her forehead. Her Ups again. Then he held her close to him while he looked at El over her rumpled head. “Isn't she the loveliest thing God ever made?” he asked huskily. Blaine laughed. [t was a nat ural. amiable laugh, acknowledging her own defeat. The two detectives laughed. Susie came and took them away, her eyes bulging at the scene in the front hall. Blaine remained. John said to the rumpled girl in his arms, “Will you marry me ip the morning, Ruth Woodson?” She said that she would. ‘ Blaine was practical. She- said to John, “We'll have a bangup wed- ding 8 soon as you cau, get the li- cense. But she must go home with me now and get some sleep. She's exhausted—can't you see it? Brides Must be fresh and beautiful—” She took Ruth’s hand and led her across the lawn, through the althea hedge, into the old Hunter house. John, listening, heard the blue door close behird them. It had a friendly, vibrant sound. As if the old house was coming to life again, WHEN the laws of the Nava) Academy permitted it, Elaine Chalmers married Dennis Davis in ‘a simple, forthright manner. Her world was surprised. In response to pressing questions from report ers she had this statement to mate: nce I saw a young man in love with a girl. { mean in love.
