The Best Evidence It is not a mere happenstance that The Trib- une was able to announce Thursday evening that attendance at the state education conven- tion here was the largest in the history of the North Dakota association. Officials of the teachers’ group, noting the bad weather and slippery roads, had feared the number attending might be sharply reduced but in doing so they failed to give full weight to Bismarck’s advantages as a convention city. Far and away-in the lead among these is the fact of its location. The average North Dakotan finds it easier and cheaper to come here than to any other city. Bismarck is the city nearest both the geographical and popula- tion centers of the state. Next in order is the fact that Bismarck can accommodate such a crowd as that now as- sembled here more easily and adequately than other cities. People don’t like conventions where the housing is poor and they find diffi- culty in obtaining restaurant service. Next in line is that there are more attrac- tions here to occupy the visitor’s spare time than is true of most other North Dakota cities. A trip through the capitol building is itself an education. In addition to that there is the state museum, state library, the state penitentiary and Fort Lincoln. The person who sees Bismarck can go home and truthfully say that he has added to his store of knowledge. All of these things, taken together, appar- ently made an appeal to North Dakota’s teach- ers, else they would not have visited us in such numbers despite the handicap of bad weather and slippery roads. Bismarck often has claimed to be the best convention city in the state. There could be no better proof that this claim is based on fact than the presence here of so many of the state’s educators.

That's the same conference to which Owen D. Young invited all other nations five years ago when it was held in Berlin. Or rather, it is and it isn’t. In those days Samuel Insull was sufficiently powerful to try to censor @ speech made at the conference by American Ampbassa- dor Sackett. As the Roosevelt administration antagonized the “power trust’ more and more, and events shaped to- ward @ death struggle between the two forces, the utili- tiles grew colder and colder on the idea of having a World Power Conference in Washington in the middle of the election campaign. And the American committee of the conference (a continuing body), made up of utility men, just folded up and wasn’t going to have any. Then the administration sneaked through Congress @ resolution authorizing $75,000 for holding the confer- . |ence and Huey Long filibustered the appropriation to death and the administration went right on planning for the conference. But this conference, instead of being operated by the utilities themselves, will be largely dominated by of- ficials and experts of TVA, Rural Electrification Admin- istration, National Power Policy Committee, SEC—which is to regulate holding companies—Federal Power Com- mission and other groups. eee NEW DEALERS STEAL SHOW Instead of mere dry discussions of technical prob- lems, this coriference will dsicuss controversial economic phases of power, such as rates and public ownership. Planners of the conference are so radical that they're even going to invite representatives of labor and the con- sumer to sit in on the show. ‘What makes the utilities maddest is that they can’t quite see how to avoid invitations to sit on committees and otherwise participate in what they fear will be a big parade of the fruits of the New Deal power policies. Distinguished foreign guests will have to be taken around to TVA and Boulder Dam, as well as to private plants. Plans call for free discussion and presentation of both sides of all issues, but key speeches will be made by government officials and most power magnates can’t see how the conference can be anything less than a big boost for the New Deal and a headache for themselves, SEEMS AS IF NOTHING’S NEW One of the easiest things to do, if you have the time, is to find early historical parallels for almost any modern- day radical proposal that comes along. ‘Take the export bounty for surplus farni crops, which some Republicans are considering as an alternative for the present AAA program. This country began that sort of thing at a tender age in 1789. The first tariff bill provided a duty of 6 cents a bushel on salt, to encourage s domestic industry. That was very tough on New England, which was doing a big business shipping salt fish. So what they did, by way of compensation, was to give the codfish industry an export bounty which amounted to from $100 to $250 a year for éach fish boat. That sort of thing went on right up to the Civil War. eee BRITAIN PLANS HER TRADES Latest sizeup of European situation, based on con- fidential reports here: British policy now based primarily on expectation of conflict sooner or later with Hitler. British statesmen finally have decided there's no long-run nourishment in supporting Germany against Russia inasmuch—assuming Russia lost—as that would only be building up an enemy with whom England would have to clash sooner or later. Hitler isn’t ready to fight yet and meanwhile Musso- ini must be licked or taken into camp lest he subse- quently be in a position to ally with Germany against Britain. , Mussolini, aware of all this, has in effect demanded Egypt as his price. This price is far too heavy for Eng- land, as it involves destruction of the British position along the route to India, Present efforts are to hammer down Mussolini’s price, by threats and league presstire. About all Eng- land has been willing to promise to date is a minor in- terest in Ethicpia which won’t interfere with the afore- sald position. England is prepared for war if Italy won't cave in on ® “reasonable” basis. (Copyright, 1935, NEA Service, Inc.) E With Other DITORS Emergency Loans Coming Due (Kansas City Star) Crop failure and low prices which prevailed in recent years placed thousands of farmers in a position where it was impossible for them to finance the ‘production of crops this year. The government provided emergency loans to meet this situation, which will become dye in November, ‘This advancement of funds was not made on the basis of relief or as a dole, but as & business proposition to en- able the borrowers to continue in their vocation as farm- ers and producé It is essential that every possible effort be made by borrowers to meet their obligations promptly on the due In this way confidence in their good intentions and integrity will be established.

JORDAN Rome—(#)—Court intrigue, puppet rulers and untimely deaths figure in an Italian version of the succession to the Ethiopian throne on which sits Emperor Haile Selassie, who once was Ras Tafari Makonnen. » The story was told by Dr. Pietro Lecco, @ functionary in the ministry of colonies and the physician in whose care the father of Ras Haile Selassie Gugsa, aspirant to the Addis Ababa throne, died. Its point is a claim that Ras Gugsa, who has joined General De Bono's Italian troops in the Tigre province, is the legitimate heir to the scepter held by Haile Selassie, This is Dr. Lecco’s story. “King John, whose death made way for Emperor Menelik in 1889, had two sons, Ras Araja and Ras Mangascia. Both died, each leaving a son, but the primogenital line is continued with Ras Gugsa, who comes ahead of his cousin, Res Sejum. Menelik Puts Heir Aside “Ras Tafari’s name is not Haile Selassie at all—he assumed that to give himself the air of legitimacy in the eyes of his subjects. “Menelik was the first to usurp the throne, profiting by the death of King John on March 8, 1889. The resolute and astute Menelik shoved aside the elder son of John, and had himself proclaimed ‘negus neghesti,’ or ‘king of kings.” “Menelik was able to separate John’s two sons, sending Ras Mangascia —-—-——.

To King John’s sons. was left only Tigre province. Mangascia, beaten in &@ rebellion in 1899, died at Ankober. “There followed a period of in- trigues and bloody fights in which Menelik gave no quarter.

This empress was just a puppet, maneuvered by Ras Tafari, who had been named regent, until 1928 when, feeling himself po- litically firm and with strong military backing, he seized the real power. “Araja and Mangascia are dead. The two cousins, Gugsa and Sejum, remain. Until recently the first was at Makale, the second at Aduwa, cap- itals respectively of the eastern and western Tigre. “Tafari cleverly won Sejum’s friend- ship. To Gugsa he gave a cousin to wife, hoping for a child of his own blood as heir in the Tigre province. But the beautiful Wozero Jesiase Urok It proved a disappointing gift to Gugsa. She did not bear him @ son. Later, therefore, he repudiated her. “Not to be outdone, Tafari then suc- ceeded in marrying his own daughter to Guésa.

Dr. Pietro advised him to leave, but Tafari refused him permission. The physican finally sterted with him for Eritrea, The old chieftain died on the way in his son’s ‘arms, blessing him and telling him to free the Tigre from the Shoans (the house of Ras Tafari), and return the oe to the legitimate heir of King “The son himself received the in- fection from his father and nearly Demon 15 Wigwam.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ’ Dilated Venules What causes conspicuous little veins on the backs of the hands and on the arms? (A. E. R.) So many little enlarged veins on my thighs marks and I am so fond of swimming . . . Answer—Loss of youthful elasticity and resiliency one factor of dilated veins, varicose veins, prominent veins. Perhaps you need more vitamin a. Perhaps you need an iodin ration. Physician skilled in chemical oblitera- _ tion of varicose veins cgn obliterate these venules by similar method, using “ extremely fine needle and good light and binocular loupe. Successful in- jection of one venule near the centre of a network will cause the venules around it to disappear too.
