More Encouragement There is encouragement for farmers in both the farm plan being prepared by President Roosevelt and the speech which Former President Hoover made at Lincoln, Neb., Thursday night. Take the two things together and they demonstrate that consciousness of the farm problem exists in nearly all quarters. President Roosevelt would continue to control crop pro- duction by the rental system, at the same time promoting soil conservation measures. Mr. Hoover would take off the ANNOUNCED purpose of controlling crops but would retire sub-marginal land from pro- duction by the same process and thus accomplish the same end! 2 without emphasizing the reduction in output or making it an announced aim. Tr:s the battle—or what there is of it—boils down to what shall be said as much as what shall be done. When per- sons on opposite sides of the political fence get that close to- gether it may trithfully be said they are in absolute agreement. On one point Mr. Hoover is absolutely right and President Roosevelt would be unwise to disagree. That is the thought that agricultural subsidies should be paid from general taxa- tion. The processing taxes DID bear heaviest upon the poor. | Since the farm problem is a national one it is only fair that |, the money needed to keep it in adjustment come from all in proportion to their ability to pay rather than their need to consume. The Hoover thought that more and easier loans and the establishment of cooperatives offer a solution is a reversion to 1930. They DO NOT. Furthermore, they NEVER DID. What the farmer needs and has needed is MORE INCOME TO PAY HIS DEBTS RATHER THAN THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONTRACT NEW ONES. The Bismarck Tribune Company, Bismarck. N. D, and | Two Roads Blocked in Bismarck Division; Seek to Have All Open Sunday Low temperatures which spread over the plains states Saturday plunged the mercury to a bitterly cold level in North Dakota and with continued snows made travel by either very hazardous or entirely im- |possible. Roads in the northeast and north central sections of the state are either blocked or very heavy, the state high- way department reported. Attempts are being made to have all primary toads open by Sunday. Only two roads in the Bismarck division were blocked, according to George E. Hanson, division engineer. ; They were highway 31 from Center to New Salem and highway 34 from Napoleon to the junction of high- way 56.

Secretary Wal- lace has been preaching the same doctrine for more than two years. The question here is not WHAT is desirable but HOW TO DO IT. ‘The man who produces a workable answer will be truly deserving of national acclaim. Mr. Hoover was in good form Thursday night and he DID PUT his finger on some of the weaknesses of the NEW DEAL, but close analysis of his speech leads to the conclusion that he wouldn’t make such a bad NEW DEALER himself, in his own modest way. Certainly he is more progressive in attitude ey some of the other men who seek the Republican nomina- His main trouble now is that he had an opportunity to do something from 1928 to 1932 and, in the pinch, was unwilling to apply the measures which he now endorses. Hauptmann Reprieved Bruno Richard Hauptmann, convicted slayer of the Lind- bergh baby, lives today because of the action of Governor Har- -old Hoffman of New Jersey. The executive, for reasons which z did not disclose, temporarily spared the German carpenter's e. It would have been better had the governor made public the inspiration for his action. Was it a well-founded doubt as to Hauptmann’s guilt, a tenderness of heart which made him quail at thought of Hauptmann going to the electric chair, or _ was it a desire‘to keep this tragic case alive that he may con- tinue to bask in the limelight of publicity? One guess is as good as another. Only time will tell if there ‘was real reason for the reprieve. If nothing new develops— and it is difficult to see what COULD develop—then Hoffman’s| & action will have to go down as either a demonstration of maudlin éympathy or a crass trick to keep the gaze of the public fastened upon himself. + In some quarters there may be doubt as to Hauptmann’s guilt. That may or may not be justified. Certainly, in view] ic of the evidence adduced against him, there is little but senti- ment upon which to predicate such judgment. But the fact remains that such doubters are not called | 8 " upon to do anything about it. They have no responsibility in the case. The agencies which have been set ip, to deal with “such matters have spoken. a Tf, unlikely as it seems, the next few months throw new light on the kidnaping and murder of the Lindbergh baby and the subsequent payment of ransom, the reprieve will have been . justified. If nothing new turns up it will mean only that a miserable creature has had a little more of a miserable ex- Astence. The public can afford to be patient. There is no need for excitement, such as seems to have actuated those who call for Governor Hoffman’s impeachment. The spirit of justice is not one of bloodlust. Neither does it. hesitate to penalize crime which deserves punishment. Its duty is to afford fair play to any accused person and protection for the public, That fact} should be kept in mind. i For four years Columbia University has offered a course in “administra- | ages.

Dana smiled at the thought It hadn't been a real quarrel. You couldn't quarrel with anybody like Scott. who refused to be unreason- able and cross. Who was simply @ darling about everything. Dana ured herself she didn’t mind pinching pennies. How could she. living im such a state of dreamy. abstraction. so utterly end completely happy? Scott was so devoted. so adoring. Ot course the world would recog- nize him some day for what he Physician and surgeon. What Dana did not know then was that a new and young pbyst- cian was admitted into the tnner circle of the older. more expert- enced members of the profession enly through rare good fortune. Scott had tnsisted on hiring a cook but Dana had vetoed the sug: gestion. She insisted thie was & fine time for her to learn to cook. and spent Rours pouring over her cook book. On the 22d of each month (the 22d had been their wedding day) they celebrated by going out to dinner. Afterward they would dance somewhere or attend a show. cee N one of these eventful occa- sions Paula entertained for them with a perfectly appointed dinner. Ronnie sat on Dana's right and Scott at ber left.' Scott sat next to Paula. too, at the end of the table. She looked vivid in a green and gold frock and her conversa- tion was sparkling. Dana was wearing white —the ‘same dress she had worn the night of the party at the Cameron home when she had firet danced with ;Seott. She had worn it again at the College Club the night she had Promised to marry Seott. Scott did not know it was the same dress. He knew only that Dana was the prettiest gir] at the other color.” “The way you turn a casual com- pliment into the most unusual flat tery!” Dana laughed up at him. “Are compliments banned now that you're married?” “Certainly mot! ! need them more than ever. Every married woman faces the bugaboo of having her friends say behind her back ‘Poor dear, she’s getting positively shabby '” Ronnie smiled. “1 can’t picture you in that class. If any man ever allowed you to get shabby—well he ought—” Ronnie stopped. “Ought what?” “Ought to lose you.” Ronnie re- pifed slowly. Dana's eyes met his. Ronnie flushed under her direct look. “Good heavens. Dana. You know 1 was just generalizing.” , “Naturally.” Dana reassured him, “How could you be talking about me?” . eee GOMEHOW. though. she felt net- tled. {t had been utterly ridic ulous of Ronnie to think she might take the remark personally. “Because { don’t look shabby,” je thought proudly. “And Scott ould never let me be!” If they continued to run around, partying so much, she would need a new evening dress. She wouldn't think about it now. This white one would do nicely for a while. And perhaps they wouldn’t nave so many invitations. People always invited newly married people out and then. after a while. the novelty wore off and they left them alone. A few weeks later Dana and Scott decided to pay off some social obligations by giving a small din- ner. “Get a maid in to help you.” Scott suggested. “I don’t need any help,” Dana assured him. “Cooking for siz people isn’t much more trouble than cooking for two.” Brave words. Dana was to re call them, later. She decided to serve chitken. She had roasted chicken several times before. and ft had been delicious. An aspte salad would be easy to make and always looked nice. with fts bright heart nestling in crisp green lev tuce leaves. She would have can- died sweet potatoes. asparagus party.
