All rights of republication of all other matter herein are also reserved, Two Views It begins to look as though economic recovery for the mass of the people and re-employment of idle workers are two vastly different things. That we have recovery of business is undeniable but no one even pretends to argue that it has gone far enough when we have approximately 10,000,000 people still looking for jobs. The job is not and will not be complete until everyone who wants to earn his own living can do so without the pretense now afforded by “made work.” No one is overly positive as to how this can be done, for each of us is busy with his own affairs and has his own row to hoe. The thoughts of the average citizen are quite likely to be as sketchy as those of the professors who would make the world over by transforming selfish human nature into the essence of sweetness and light. “On the whole, however, there are two schools of thought. One is represented by President Roosevelt with his proposal to spread the work, maintaining prices and wages without increas- ing the total of production. The other is represented by that school which has all along contended that the way to recovery is to make goods more cheaply, interfere as little as possible with the processes of production and let the distribution issue be taken care of by competition. Boiled down to its elements, this contest is that of govern- ment control and high prices on the one hand and of unregulated business and low prices on the other. Under the latter system the only legal interference would be that already provided by law to prevent illegal restraint of trade and agreements which amount to the operation of trusts. The building industry, hardest pressed of any offering large employment during the last few years, has come out squarely, through the columns of the American Builder, for the latter system. Admitting that home building has increased, it points to the fact that residential construction for the first quarter of 1986 still was only 27 per cent as large as in 1929, the com- parison in money being $136,275,000 to $511,200,000. Con- tracts for other buildings were $1,367,000,000 in the first quar- ter of 1929 and $601,000,000 in the first quarter of 1936. It is the contention of the building industry that costs still are too high and that real activity will not begin until they come down. Hence the remedy of reducing hours of work without attendant pay cuts will do it much more harm than good. With building production only 40 per cent of the pre- depression level it is estimated that 3,000,000 persons would be put back to work if the 1929 condition were restored. It is always dangerous to generalize and to say that what applies to one industry applies to all, but it is certain that what is true of building is true of a large number of other industries; that the best thing the government could do would be to retire from the field of regulation and give business a better chance. This is particularly true in view of the bill now pending in congress. with some chance of passage, whereby the govern- ment would SUBSIDIZE low-cost housing ventures by private individuals. If. confession were needed that housing costs have been pushed up beyond the ability of the average individual to pay, this is it. Measure of Progress If there is one thing we can be sure of in this world it is the fact that tomorrow is going to be no more like today than today is like yesterday. Change is constantly upon us and, much as many of us dislike it, there is no escape. If we meet it intelligently and with open minds the result will be good for the human race. There will be more of this world’s goods and more leisure in which to consume them, less pain and suffering, no real hard- ship. All of these things are possible if we keep our minds open and follow the lead of our forward-looking businessmen and scientists rather than the dictates of politicians. A glimpse at some of the things which already are here and of others which are on the way proves the point. A new synthetic fiber has been developed which is one- third thinner than the best natural.silk. A new weaving indus- try, making new products, is on the way as a result of it. From corn starch comes Inositol, a super explosive which is expected to take the place of dynamite. Half a drop of linolic acid does something to the human system so that it causes resumption of growth in human beings.

Their fevorite Plane in Hi A jagged piece of metal torn from the plane of the late Carl Ben Elelson when it crashed in Siberia nearly seven years ago came to rest Thurs- day in the display cases of the North Dakota Historical society. Arthur W. Johnson of Los Angeles, Calif., in charge of the exhibition and vice president of Alaska Airways at the time of the search for Elelson, sent the section of the airplane, a part of the stabilizer fin, to the socigty. In a letter transmitting the metal section to the museum, Johnson re- called an “unusual coincidence” that figured in the finding of the wrecked plane by Pilots J. E. Crosson and Har- THRILL BISMARCK MUSIC FOLLOWERS Ruth Ray and Fred Wise Pre- sent Brilliant Violin and Voice Program The consummate artistry, technical | perfection and charming personalities | of Ruth Ray, violinist, Fred Wise, tenor, and their accompanist, Fern} Weaver, made their concert Wednes- day evening in the city auditorium a fitting climax of the Capital City’s; winter and spring musical season, which has brought much that was worth while. The concert was the outstanding one musically in the 1935-36 artist series sponsored by the Thursday Musical club and the American Art- ists association, which also included the memorable modern dance impres- sion recital by Grace and Kurt Graff. Ruth Ray immediately won her audience and Fred Wise received no less enthusiastic a reception. Both were encored profusely from their first groups and responded most gen- erously. This was done despite the fact that they had given a lengthy concert in the afternoon for more than 1,000 high school students of Bismarck-Mandan. Artist Beautifully Poised Rarely does one hear such satisfy- ing violin music as that which Miss Ray drew from her instrument. Serenely poised because she has the technical eyuipment to meet every demand, she is in a position to give her listeners the maximum of pleas- ure from her interpretations. Her program was catholic in its range, from the Handel “Sonata in D Major,” to four compositions from various Spanish provinces ar- ranged by Kochanski and a group of modern works in which high spots were her own arrangement of a Negro spiritual. “Wade in De Water,” and the delightful “Flight of the Bumble Bee,” Rimseky-Worsakoff, which many were hearing performed for the first time. Also there was the descriptive “Waves at Play” of Grasse and the lovely “Dreams,” Wagner-Auer. DIES AT AGE OF 54 Life-Long Resident of State Succumbs to Heart Dis- ease in Hospital Erick 8. Ghylin, Jr. 54, life-long resident of North Dakota and son of the late Erick Ghylin Burleigh coun- ty pioneer, died at 5:45 p. m. Wed- nesday in a local hospital of heart disease. Mr. Ghylin had been suffering from. the heart ailment for some months but was not brought to the hospital until six hours before he passed away. Funeral services will be held at 3:30 p. m., Saturday at the Sunny Lutheran church in Ecklund township with Rev. Opie S. Rindahl, pastor of the Trinity Lutheran church, officiat- ing. Interment will be made in the church cemetery there. Mr. Ghylin was born April 7, 1882 in North Dakota and moved to Bur- leigh county with his parents when a young boy. Recently he has been/ making his home with a brother, Al- vin Ghylin, who lives eight miles northeast of Regan. He was unmar- ried. He leaves three other brothers, Dave Ghylin of Wilton and John and Emil Ghylin, both of Spokane, Wash., and three sisters, Mrs, William Olen- burger of Wilton, and Mrs. Ella Towne and Mrs. Florence Dale, both of San Francisco. The body will lie in state at the ‘Webb Funeral chapel until time for the funeral. Is Through Musician The thorough musicianship of the tenor and the outstanding tonal qual- ity of his voice were nowhere dem- onstrated better than in “Il Mio Tes- oro Intanto” from Mozart's “Bon Gio- vanni.” His other groups were Eng- lish and French songs and he inter- preted each with artistic finesse. To have two such pleasing artists in one concert, assisted by a pianist capable of providing such a beautiful background is unusual and was much appraciated by the music lovers at Wednesday's concert. The three performers came from Chicago and all are returning there, leaving here Thursday noon. After the concert the Misses Florence Fritch and Techia Knoll gave an informal | reception for a small group of guests in their studio at 304's Main avenue. KIDDER PUPILS VISIT Mrs. N.

PREPARATIONS HERE Friday Morning to Be Devoted to Registration of Con- clave Delegates Everything was in readiness Thurs- day for the influx of approximately 300 North Dakota and Manitoba youths expected here for the third International DeMolay Conclave, which will open Friday at the Ma- sonic temple. Robert Bowman, master councilor of the Bismarck chapter, will make the opening address at the first meet- ing Friday afternoon. The morning will be devoted to the registration of delegates. ‘Welcome will be extended by Gov- ernor Welford, L. K. Thompson and Leslis A. French and J. Hunter Res- tall of Winnipeg will respond. Pre- sentation of the initiatory degree by the international officers will feature the Friday afternoon meeting. Former Gov. Shafer is scheduled to give the main talk dur- ing the annual banquet program Fri- day evening with Robert Luck of Mandan acting as toastmaster. Additional degree work, a business meeting, and golf and basketball tcurnaments will occupy the delegates Saturday with a dance in the evening bringing the second day to a close. | | stated.

They felt better and than they ever had been while carry- poorly nourished individuals who attempted thout drugs, ductless gland extracts, éxer- measures, either became discouraged and was done or madly pursued the will-o-the- ‘wisp until health was ruined. In my opinion every reduction method devised and employed either medical supervision or otherwise prior to 1930 was unscientific, in- efficient and unduly hazardous, viewed in the light of our present knowledge of nutrition. Extensive experience in practice (not mine, but the experience of of real physicians) conclusively proves that a reduction regimen to fulfil the requirements of the newer knowledge of nutrition brings about gradual reduction without any impairment of health or vital- ity; on the contrary such a design for dwindling actually builds vitality and improves and maintains health. Accordingly I should advise any one who may be trying to reduce to abandon the attempt the moment any decline in vitality becomes evident. One’s own common sense, and not the notions of friends or neighbors, should determine this. When I was reducing two or three years ago, sometimes friends I had not seen for months would manifest concern about my health, but I knew how I felt; later these same friends remarked how well I was looking. Most laymen caricature the pic- ture of health anyway. It should not suggest incipient apoplexy. Remember, it takes years of malnutrition to produce corpulency. Don't try to get rid of it all in a month. (Next Monday: The Physiology of Fat) QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Ear trouble. Has it anything to do with going without a hat on windy days?
