It is interesting to note that the state tax survey commis- sion takes a similar view and recommends that some of the schools the state already has be “partially or completely con- verted into vocational schools.” The Tribune’s declaration was based on common-sense ob- servation of the problems of young men who seek work but who are not well fitted for any kind of job, as well as on the popular tendency to glorify the white collar job, ignore the sound respectability of an overall job. Bolstering this contention are the findings of Isaac F. Marcosson, famous editor, author and journalist who hag just completed a survey of American youth for the American maga- zine. After careful analysis of both the educational system and its product, he reached the conclusion that “the majority of our youth are the victims of an educational system which mis- fits rather than fits, which dumps youth on the doorstep of the world of work untrained for the job of life. There is too much learning in the head and too little in the hands. Educa- tionally, youth is all dressed up with no place to go.” In support of this he mentions the situation in Connecticut where, with 43,000 unemployed young men and women, many of them high school and college graduates, 75 per cent are un- trained for any kind of skilled work. They go jobless despite a shortage of skilled workers. Change of its educational set-up by the state government would lend support to the doctrine of respect for honest work. It would recognize the fact that when a person seeks a job the prospective employer never asks “what do you know?” but “what can you do?” A good many people would be misfits in white collar posi- tions—at least at first. The work of the world is not done by men in offices and executive posts but by men in overalls and Gate. jumpers. And the boys and girls who seek vocational training need not fear that they are closing the doors of opportunity for big’ things when they approach the ladder of life from this angle. The number of big men who began life in overalls and who rose to great things is astounding. If the boy who is looking for a “position” could interview the most successful men in Bismarck he would find that nearly every one of them began working at a job and that “position” came from it as a sort of natural consequence. Forbidden Fruit Fruit trees are so difficult to grow in North Dakota that complaints received recently by The Tribune from several householders will find answering echo in the hearts of many amateur horticulturists. It is the old, old story of young eyes looking with desire up- on forbidden fruit and damage to the trees in their effort to get it. What to do is the question. Owners of the trees have, in several instances, offered to share the fruit with the juvenile marauders if they will only leave it to ripen, pick it in such a way as not to damage the trees, but such proposals have been of no avail. It may be that fruit tastes better when obtained without consent. Many a man, reflecting upon the exploits of his youth, may remember that such seemed to be the case “away back when.” But any tendency toward sympathy with the juvenile atti- tude vanishes at consideration of the care and cost which are involved in growing such trees in this area. It does stimulate the wish that juvenile nature were a little different, cause a hunt for methods to effect a cure, One which comes to mind is the liberal application of a little vigorous shoe-leather to the proper place and at the proper time. Many an adult will remember that this treatment is effective, The only other course would be for parents to try their hand at controlling twilight depredations by appropriate action on their own part. After all, no good citizen wants to see trees damaged be- cause one or more boys are too weak to resist temptation.

War ef Federal Sleuths Is Still Live Capital Topic... What Caused Their Clash Is Re- vealed. (By RODNEY DUTCHER (Tribune Washington Correspondent) Washington, Aug. 14.—If you look at @ map of the Mediterranean Sea, you will quickly perceive the serious potentialities involved in a diplomatic tumor which has contributed largely to the widespread war scare. The rumor is that the Spanish rebel leaders have offered to Italy, in return for her support in the cur- rent rebellion, the port of Ceuta in Spanish Morocco and the island of Minorca in the Balearics, There is no way of confirming or disproving the rumor. Such stories have a way of turning up during in- ternational crises. Yet this one has persisted lately in various capitals of the world. If it happens to be true, as rumors sometimes are, it holds the seeds of another great European war. If it isn’t true, it may well turn out to have been concocted by Spaniards loyal to the Madrid government who sought support from the British. But there's plenty of evidence that the rebels have had Italian support. see Risk Would Be Great Cession of Ceuta and Minorca to Italy would have approximately the BISMARCK TRIBU. effect of realizing Mussolini's dream of turning the Mediterranean into an “Italian lake.” ‘Whether Mussolini would dare accept such an offer at this time would depend on whether he felt he could afford to take a chance of provoking Great Britain te Wer.

Edgar Hoover's “G-men.” Widespread sus- picion, however, persists in Washing- ton that the secret service men were not acting without approval of some- one higher up. Part of the reported jealousy is said to be due to the heavy publicity which the federal bureau of investi- gation men received when thty began wiping out kidnapers and other gang- sters. But there was also a bill in Looking at the Campaign (Copyright, -1936, by David Lawrence) Chicago, Aug. 14. — There may be much food for conversation in the various polls and straw votes that are being made nowadays but the last and most important poli of any large number of voters that will, upon study, reveal some significant trends is the primary vote in 11 states. Here at Republican national head- quarters they can hardly get much comfort out of a re-examination of primary voting but, so far as indi- cating the job the Republicans have ahead of them if they are to win, the tabulation shows clearly where the organization work of an intensive character must be done. There seems no doubt that the heavy Democratic vote in the primar- jes in some states discloses the effect of the WPA and other “relief” or- ganizations. This shows up especially in noting the abnormal increases in the Democratic votes in states where there are populous cities and towns. It indicates a corresponding failure te increase proportionately the Dem- ocratic vote in states that are more sparsely populated, where it is diffi- cult for the “relief” vote to be cor- raled so easily as in the cities and large towns.

But it is surprising to find Illinois, California, Nebraska and West Virginia as well as Wisconsin showing such a heavy Dem- ocratic total. The fact that Presi- dent Roosevelt's name appeared on the ballot in some of these states, as in Illinois, for example, and that he got 520,000 more votes than both Mr. Knox and Mr. Borah is interesting, but even more so is the fact that 516,000 of the Roosevelt majority over the Republican presidential nomin- ees was obtained in Cook county, which includes Chicago and environs. Here is where the “relief” vote can easily be concentrated. In the downstate counties Mr. Roosevelt had 640,631 and the com-, bined Republican vote was 630,849. '
