Byrne, “Paddy” to his host of friends in Bismarck, ended a life of singular usefulness to Bismarck and North Dakota. As the shadows lengthened he could look back on a life which had been full and active and which he lived with all the zest of his Celtic nature. For life was good to Paddy Byrne, the immigrant boy who came from Ireland to North Dakota and who, in turn, became an integral part of the west. It was good because of the spirit which was his. If life; had sorrow and travail it also had smiles and many warm friend- | ships. Every cloud had a silver lining. That, at least, was the presumption of his friends for “Paddy” always had a bright quip or a witty remark, no matier what the occasion. | As a leader in his community, Mr. Byrne exercised a potent | influence in its development. The progressive attitude and the worthy cause found in him a loyal supporter, for he always| looked forward to a better day and realized full well that per-| fection is not found in this world. But it was his effect upon the PEOPLE of this community, | that vast number of persons who called him friend, that was particularly notable. He acted as a tonic upon all with whom he came in contact. Just as he brought many a smile in life, so does he bring many a tear in death, for the community can ill afford to lose such a man, Two Out of Three Enthusiastic reception by the American Farm Bureau of President Roosevelt's speech in Chicago Monday helps te clarify the political picture. It demonstrates pretty clearly that, whatever one’s political sentiments, the farmers of Amer- ica are generally enthusiastic about the administration’s farm} program as a whole. It is significant because it is the first of the three big farm groups to meet since the trade treaty with Canada was an- nounced. That document was made public while the National Grange was in session in California and, while it endorsed the New Deal generally and the AAA in particular, it also adopted a hot reso- lution against the Canadian pact. The Farm Bureau has had more time to study it. There is no pretense that it approves all of the treaty's details, but it does take the stand that it is nothing to get excited about in comparison with the benefits gained through AAA. The attitude of the Farmers Union has not been definitely determined. At its recent convention it came somewhat under the influence of Milo Reno and others of that ilk and was criti- cal of the farm program, but what it will do when it has oppor- tunity to make a comparison with whatever the Republicans propose remains to be seen. Meanwhile, the Farmers Union in this and some other states is decidedly in favor of the adminis-| tration. This was proved a few weeks ago when the national | president attacked the AAA at the state convention at Dickin-} son and got only the applause which politeness demanded. | These developments are straws in the political wind which! will not be ignored by the seers in high places. They will have the tendency of forcing the Republicans to think seriously on} the farm question. If the G.O.P. could win without the west it is clear that it would attempt to do so, but it cannot and the nature of its appeal to the farmer must, of necessity, either be an endorsement of the AAA, if it gets by the supreme court, or something better. The attitude of eastern “big shots” in the party that the farm adjustment act is an iniquity will get scant consideration in the west as a whole. > Meanwhile, the president emphasized at Chicago the factor | which is his real hope of carrying the urban centers. This is| the speed at which money is beginning to move, for that, after all, is the measure of prosperity in this country. A single sum of $50 can, within the course of a year, buy a radio, an easy chair, linoleum for the kitchen, pay a grocery bill, become part of a down payment on a house and finance scores of other business transactions. The movement of money into and out of the family purse in exchange for goods is the measure of contentment for the families of America and the groundwork for successful business. When money stagnates and people are afraid to spend, business gets poor, the number of jobs is reduced and calamity is at hand. If the present trend continues and money circulates at an increasingly accelerated pace, the good effect will be felt by everyone, not least of all by the administration which happens to be in political power. The farmers already are contributing to this condition. They are putting what money they get into circulation almost as fast as they receive it. Necessity forces most of them. This has created a better tone in the cities, which are beginning to respond. On this basis it may turn out that the effort to rescue the farmer from peonage really saved our whole business structure. ‘Boy violinist is retiring because he “feels great, things lying dormant” within him.

Fewer Drunken Drivers, but More Plastered Pedes- trians ... A Genuine Is Discovered —It’s Farley! ... A Senator Learns What Fame Is. By RODNEY DUTCHER (Tribune Washington Correspondent) Washington, Dec. 10.—The new vol- untary four-year plan for cotton pro- duction control was written with a tacit belief among AAA officials that the Bankhead compulsory cotton control act would be found unconsti- tutional. No one here ever liked the Bank- head act much, except perhaps mem- bers of congress which passed it and representatives of hundreds of thou- sands of southern cotton planters who voted for this form of “regimen- tation” almost en masse. Even the AAA lawyers who helped ffame the legislation thought it was pretty bad. The politicians promot- ing it wouldn’t even let them do a good job of draftsmanship. @he Kerr tobacco act, another compulsory control measure enthusi- astically supported by growers, is a better-written law. But the New Dealers don’t expect that to stand up in the supreme court, either. ‘The penalty tax in the two bills is considered to represent more coercion than the court has shown any sign | being willing to stand. Secretary Wallace always opposed compulsory control. The new pro- gram, linking loan-subsidy provisions with the benefit payment scheme, is expected to accomplish the same end by persuading farmers it isn’t profit- able to refrain from signing contracts and from production curtailment. AAA still expects the Agricultural Adjustment Act to be upheld. There lits lawyers are arguing that congress has merely given farmers a method ot doing exactly what they want] __ to do. ** * Lo! A Genius Appears! Seldom does one have the privilege reporting discovery of hidden ion of a score of propaganda pam- phlets handsomely published’ by the Democratic national committee, such gay colors as yellow, blue, sepia, and several shades of green. in As everybody knows, the Demo- cratic committee is dead broke and way down in the red, and anything it thinks it can afford to print is bound to be of the utmost impor- tance. These particular booklets haven't yet had the wide circulation they will doubtless receive as the campaign warms up, but certain favored ones have been privileged to glimpse them. They can now report that all bear the signature of the same New Dealer and that the titles seem to stamp him as the most versatile and learned brain-truster of them all. The book- lets include: “The New Era,” by James A. Far- ley. “Education and Its Résponsibili- ties,” by James A. Farley. “The Opportunity,” by James A. Parley. “Building Citizenship,” by James A. Farley. “Dictatorship—A Myth,” by James A. Farley. “The Spirit of the New Deal,” by James A. Farley. “John Marshall,” by James A. Far- ley. “The Problem of Agriculture,” by James A. Farley. “The New Deal and Old Hickory,” by James A. Farley. ; “The Irish Influence in American History.” by James A. Farley. “A Challenge to America,” James A. Farley. “Postal Affairs and the National Economy,” by James A. Farley. “Haverstraw—My Home Town,” by James A. Farley. And several more. Closer inspec- tion reveals that the booklets are really a collection of speeches—by James A. Farley. * * A Lesson in History Note of “Dickinson Day,” Kansas City’s celebration for Senator Dickin- son of Iowa, was made editorially by the celebrated New York Times, “Nobody worthy to know the his- tory of his country can be ignorant of the name and fame of Lee J.

The state- ment is taken to have reference to Japan's latest efforts to get hands upon @ part of Chinese territory, al- though Japan is not mentioned in the utterance, The effect of this statement will be to strengthen the hand of the Nan- king government in its efforts to pre- vent Japan from slicing off several of the richest provinces of China. And Possibly it will bring about some bet- ter form of government for those Provinces, which have long been shamelessly exploited by Chinese of- ficials, The whole situation is brought about by the opportunity Japan sees in the fact that Chinese government is about the poorest excuse of an or- ganized control that is known in the world today. If China is to remain @ separate nation and avoid being carved up for distribution she will simply have to find some way of handling her affairs with common honesty and with regard for her peo- ple’s rights. Of course the other nations have trade interests in China which are important. This had led to the famous “open door” doctrine, by which the nations have pledged themselves to stay out of China in a political sense. Japan was a party to such agreement. But now Japan wants to extend her control over those several provinces with the evident intention of dominating the territory and hav- ing the say as to what is to be done there in matters of trade as in other things.

He waited in rising impatience until, at last, the girl at the outer switchboard announced the arrival of Bobby Wallace. Larry asked her to send him in at once, and when the young man arrived Larry barely paused to shake hands with him before “Let's seo it, Bob—quick!” _ Bobby handed him the sheet of mote paper on which, for after- dinner jest, Larry made an impression of Jean n’s finger- prints.

Then are suckers for long distance “specialists” and especially for food or diet “speci= alists.” Once they have been stung by such a humbug’s “course” of funny eating it becomes extremely difficult to erase from their primitive minds the false impressions the charlatan has made. The charlatan divined that protein and starch or protein and sugar quarrel and form poisonous sub- stances if they meet in the human stomach; it does not matter that the Creator grows protein and starch in wheat, the staff of life, and sugar and protein in milk, the natural food of infants. When a sucker has paid over his money he just can’t admit he has been a sucker, that’s all. Curiously enough, this is the third of a series of talks about the O, P. Diet. My alibi is that the corrective protective diet is “not a diet at all, in the popular sense of the term, but merely a general outline of the essentials of nutrition, with especial reference to the needs of people who find them- selves aging prematurely.

T hate like anything even to mention such signs or symptoms. Of course they do not spell arteriosclerosis or CVD in any case, On the other hand these insidious changes do not indicate good health either.

ANSWERS Juice Please tell me whether it is necessary to pour off and throw away the liquid or juice in which canned foods such as peas, beans, etc., come, before cooking preserving the food. (A. L. H.) Answer—That would be foolish waste. The liquid or juice in which such foods come is good food. Likewise it is wasteful economics to pour off and throw away the liquid in which vegetables are cooked, as too many poorly trained housewives do. This cooking water should always be saved and used in soup or gravy. It contains considerable of the mineral and vitamin components of the food. One thing they do better abroad is soup. The American kitchen boasts a more impressive garbage can, however. Calcium Ben Told raw sugar contains 200 times as much calcium as refined white sugar. Would you advise substituting crude brown or raw sugar for refined white sugar (S. L.) Answer—Even 80, raw sugar is a poor source of calcium. I’d use which- ever kind of sugar I liked. Best sources of calcium are eggs, milk, cheese of every kind, beans, peas, fresh green vegetables, unmilled wheat. (Copyright 1935, John F. Dille Co.)
