A program has been arranged, of course, but ample oppor- tunity will be afforded anyone who wants to make a suggestion, either critical or constructive. That, in fact, is what the meet- ing is for. Reports of various committees and presentation of the pro- gram adopted by the directors for the coming year will chart the future of Bismarck throughout the year. The theme of the meeting will be that of rededication to a bigger, more aggressive and more prosperous Bismarck. Members of the association should attend with that in mind. Public officials can do some things to advance a city, but what they do is much less important than the attitude of the business people. If the latter are smug and self satisfied the community is bound to slip, because no community ever stands still, It goes either forward or backward, , The objective of all businessmen should be to keep their community moving in the right direction. Therein lies the path to greater stability, more business and more profits. Special emphasis will be placed on irrigation at tonight’s meeting. Bismarck is convinced that fertilization of the great Missouri valley by putting water on our soil will mean pros- perity for both the farmer and the city dweller. Because of this deep-seated belief the probability is that all of the influ- ence of our united business interests will be placed behind this movement, In recommendations made to the Association of Commerce board of directors by.every member, the dream of every mem- ber has been given voice. A city is built upon the dreams and visions of its citizens as much as upon their accomplishments, for dreams and visions are a forerunner to all civic or commer- cial activity. In those fields little that is constructive happens because of pure:chance. But tonight the time for dreaming will have passed. The city then will enter into the era of active work to make its com- posite dream come true. Throughout the year every citizen may be called upon to do something that the program adopted may be carried to fruition. With that end in view every member of the association should mentally pledge himself, not only to do his full share but to give the Association of Commerce that whole-hearted and enthusiastic co-operation which will stimulate its officers and the yoeie generally to new and grander dreams of future Bis- marck, Wercan have whatever kind of city we want, provided we dare to dream greatly and do mightily. Finding the Why One of the eternal quests of mankind is that to determine why certain things are as they are or do the things they do. In that direction lies the goal of knowledge. Science pursues it relentlessly, putting a scrap of information obtained here with a shred gotten there and finally arriving at an answer. That attitude is one of the reasons why we make greater ad-| missisai vancement in dealing with material things than in dealing with each other, for no prejudices, passions or pre-conceived notions enter in. The facts speak for themselves. Such a quest had its origin when physicians attending men injured in the World war found that the wounds of those ‘who had lain unattended so long that maggots infested the wounds _ healed with much greater rapidity than those who had hot been 80 neglected. It seemed to be a horrible and loathsome thing, but there ywas the evidence. After the war the fact was overlooked until a Baltimore physician tried maggots on the wounds of two girls as a last | _ resort. It worked like magic and the wounds healed quickly. Ps Since then the use of maggots has been one of the best tricks in the bag of the surgeon. Only big, germ-free maggots were used, but the idea still was repulsive. Their use was accepted as a fact but no one knew why the treatment was beneficial. Two years ago a government scientist made it his business _ to find out why maggots caused wounds to heal so magically and after patient search he discovered that they secrete a chemical called allantoin. This chemical was substituted for the maggots and the same results were obtained. But neither the research nor the benefits ended there. Fur- ther investigation showed that the allantoin caused the cures | because it was a derivative of urea, an inoffensive chemical made by combining nitrogen, hydrogen and carbon dioxide in : form. Now a cheap, snow-white chemical is used: to relieve suffering instead of bags of maggots, simply because “gomeone took the time and trouble to ascertain the why of a physical phenomenon. _ About the only valley that isn't in trouble these days is Rudy. ‘ oe J about dir » when ave caught ther reat. to divorce, w! they could W's not wise for an auto eden hath no Tuy ike git Good up by 6a oe to make a date these days, as A it-downer. ee e With guarding the federal at Fort Knox, Ky., the People THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1937 Behiod Scenes Washington Flood May Bring Vast New Deal Pro- gtam, . .

Ohio Valley Authority, With ‘Yardstick,’ Suggested, By RODNEY DUTCHER (Tribune Washingten Correspondent) Washington, Feb. 2.—A vast New Deal program—with flood control, conservation of both natural and hu-| - man resources and cheap electric power as primary objectives—may be launched as a result of America’s great flood of 1937. The administration has as yet no long-time proposal to apply in the wake of the catastrophe. But a cer- tain strong, active group which in the past has often exerted great influ- ence in its policies will urge plans for high dams on the headwaters of the Ohio and other rivers, for a continued big federal works program with em- phasis on flood and conservation work and for simultaneous develop- ment of federal power ts alt with the high dams. uel as *e eh Vast ‘Protective Army’ It is proposed to maintain work- ers on the federal payroll in numbers equal to current WPA, PWA, and CCC armies, not only for those speci- fic aims, but also to keep up the volume of government-fed purchas- permit organized labor in private in- dustry to better or at least hold its wage scales despite the presence of millions of unemployed. piste Tess tb) Delica etint cuchy @ gene: Program will to Roosevelt, if he is not nireeny secre sidering it, Its promotion means a struggle be- tween progressive, liberal forces here and the conservative Democrats in congress and the treasury who are responsible for the current adminis- tration deficiency relief bill which at least theoretically cuts 600, per- sons off WPA rolls in the néxt four months, Already Chairman Buchanan of the House appropriations committee, dour official penney-pincher though he is admits that the flood with its hun- opposition COMMUNISM AND SOCIALISM power companies to erection of high (New York Times) dams ie een of the Ohio has|- outside observers, both friendly and aie dare flood dam-| unfriendly, have contended from time age. opposi| ‘attributed to] to time that what has been establish- Of dams adspt-leq in Russia is not a communistic anovaky, Ambassador powerlthe United States, now not mere! admits but insists that this is so. elec-! «rhe ‘distinction between socialism the second to the sort of economic system to be established once power of generating/has been achieved.

But now Mr. Troyanovsky points out that “Even as a slogan or as an aim, communism is not mentioned in the Constitution.” Still more significant is his assertion that ‘the most impor- ant problem in the world is rfot a struggle between capitalism and 50- cfalism, but the struggle .between fascism and democracy.” Soviet spokesmen have told us hitherto that real democracy was impossible as long as capitalism was retained, and that capitalism inevitably required facism ‘as its last desperate protection.

MeDOUGALL, NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER IX MaArcIA's plane’ had left Chi- cago in weather which was only a little better than bad enough to suspend service. There had been indications of improve- ment, sufficient to permit the plane's departure, but, several hours on the way, the pilot en- countered conditions which the airport had not expected. Marcia, through her win- dow into the haze at mental im- ages which gp poor visibility of the day could not erase, that the plane was about to land. She had not acquainted herself with the schedule of the flight and thought that they were making a until she noticed that was to be .attempted not at an airport but in a field, snow-covered and isolated. Considering the snow, the pilot made an excellent landing; it was not his fault that a drift-covered fence brought his plane to an ab- rupt stop, jerking the craft to one side so violently that a wing dipped and one propeller was badly , and the passen- gers were rudely jolted. Instantly there was a chorus of questions. The pilot and co-pilot emerged from the control room, and patiently and at length ex- plained the decreasing visibility and the silent radio. Then the two men opened a door and disappeared in the mist. UNDER the ministrations of the stewardess, the cabin took on something of the atmosphere of a picnic.
