Facts vs. Calculations Commendation by the government of the plan for develop- ment of the watershed of the Red River of the North is an encouraging item of news to North Dakotans but it also em- phasizes the need for careful analysis before too much money is spent. . One of the larger items in the proposal is that for a reser- voir at Bald Hill on the Sheyenne river, estimated to cost $780,- 000. It has long been taken for granted that a reservoir there would stabilize flow of water in that stream and in the Red river and be an altogether good thing. Here you have a watershed which looks big on a map and, apparently, there was no reason why a big dam in the right place shouldn’t provide plenty of water. Recently, however, the state water commission pointed out to army engineers the fact that these assumptions may not be correct. It mentioned, for example, the fact that practically no water has gone over the Arrowwood dam in the James river for the last seven years. If a dam as large Boulder or Bonne- ville were built there it wouldn’t provide any more water than the little Arrowwood dam. The latter has been well able to hold all the water which has come down the stream. Thus on the basis of EXPERIENCE as opposed to the cal- culations in the Sheyenne watershed, the Bald Hill reservoir wouldn’t supply the water needed. Which group of engineers is right hasn’t yet been decided but those with facts on their-side are clearly in better position than those with mere calculations and estimates. On this basis it probably would be wise for all the agencies concerned to get all the facts available before launching definitely on any pro- gram which involves large sums of money. One thing is sure. The people have a right to feel that such projects actually will do the things so-called experts SAY they will do before the public money is invested in them. Too Much Ducking Average Americans, reading the supreme court's decision in the Black case, may well have a tendency to resent the grounds upon which the decision was based. In refusing to go further into the matter, the court said: “The motion papers disclose no interest upon the part of the petitioner (Levitt) other than that of a citisen and a member of the bar of this court. “That is insufficient. It is an established principle that to en- title @ private individual to invoke the judicial power to determine the validity of executive, or legislative, action, he must show that he has sustained, or is immediately in danger of sustaining, a direct injury as the result of that action AND IT 18 NOT SUFFICIENT THAT HE HAS MERELY A GENERAL INTEREST COMMON TO ALL MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC.” This is disappointing, regardless of whether one favors or opposes the Black appointment. To rule the case out on the ground that Levitt had no personal interest is to take a direct slap at the public’s interest in decency, fair-play and. sound judiciary. oclety Geiger-Brennan Vows Are Repeated Monday At a ceremony performed Monday at 10 a. m,, in 8t, Mary's rectory, Miss Frances Margaret Geiger, daughter of Mrs. George Geiger, 206 Fourteenth 8t., became the bride of Stanley LeRoy Brennan, Bismarck and formerly of ‘Willow City, son of Mrs. Helga My- hus, Arthur. Rev. Joseph Schmidt officiated at the single ring service. The bride was in a floor- length model of white satin, fashioned with a closely fitted neckline and long fitted sleeves and a flared skirt. With it she wore # floor-length veil caught with @ tiara of orange blossoms. Pink roses formed her bride's bouquet. As her only jewelry she wore a gold cross, gift of the bridegroom. Mrs, Tony Geiger her sister-in-law, served as matron of honor. She wore @ foor-length model of pink taffeta with @ short jacket of matching lace and pink rosebuds in her hair. Her corsage was of pink roses. James Smallwood brother-in-law of the bride, attended Mr. Brennan as best man. Following the ceremony the bride's mother entertained at a wedding din- ner at her home. Covers were placed for 50 guests, White tapers lighted the table, which was centered with an srrangement of wedding bells. One of the principal refreshment appoint- ments was a wedding cake, with a miniature bride and groom. After dinner the wedding gifts were opened. Among the guests were Gov. and Mrs, William Langer; A, J. Gerlach, Fargo; Mrs. Christine Pfeifle, Streeter; Mr. and Mrs, Frank Lipp and Mr. and Mrs. Aleck Mossbrucker, Center.

Rev. Landgrebe, pastor of the church, read the single Miss Lenora Bietz, Ashley, as bridesmaid, was costumed in an ankle-length model of blue taffeta. Alvin Brandt attended his brother best man, The question presented was whether or not Mr. Black has | sown a right to sit on the court. THAT QUESTION OUGHT TO BE ANSWERED. For the highest court in the land to throw the case out on the ground that a citizen has no particular interest in it—and therefore ought to keep his mouth shut and his nose in his own business—is tantamount to denying the public’s interest in the court and what it does. That is wrong. THE PUBLIC HAS MORE INTEREST IN THE SUPROME COURT, IT’S MEMBERSHIP AND WHAT IT DOES THAN THE OTHER MEMBERS OF THE COURT, THE PRESIDENT OR ALL OF THE LAWYERS IN THE COUNTRY PUT TOGETHER. It is the.people’s court. They have preserved and de- fended it. even when they felt some of its decisions might be ‘wrong. \ Regardless of precedent, it is regrettable that the court could not have decided the case on its merits and thereby just- ified the public interest in its activities. As it is, it looks very much as though the court had chosen the easiest way out of what, for it, was a difficult question. Rich Man’s Son Mature men, harking back on their own boyhood, often find cause to give thanks that they were not born with a gold spoon in their mouths. An inherited fortune has been the downfall of many young men. Too often it has been “easy come—easy go.” In many cases # vast inheritance has led to the easy life. dissipation and failure to develop the fullest personal possibilities. Scores of examples have attracted national attention and most persons can recall cases where men failed to develop their | Agre capacities because things had been made too easy for them. It is because he bucked this tide that Ogden Mills, who died Monday, was notable. He could have sat back and taken it easy. Past Noble Grands Name Mrs. M. 0. g FY ego Instead he worked hard. developing his mind and his knowledge until he became one of the outstanding men of the country through sheer merit and force of personality. His was a record of achievement. The money and position which came to him by inheritance undoubtedly helped, but it also is true that Ogden Mills worked hard to reach the eminence which he attained. He refused to follow the philosophy con- tained in a poem in McGuffey’s old Fifth Reader: “A heritage, it seems to me A rich man’s son would hold in fee.” Eastern papers pacuadis a8 & possible Republican presidential eee Nominee in 1940. are beginning to speak of New York's Mayor Fiorello After Two hundred more Communists have China’ Joined 5 fight to expel the The Japenese in’ 5 don’t like the country they ought to go back where they came from. are said to feel that if the Japanese CELEBRATE 64TH ANNIVERSARY MR.

From Dr; Coke’s address I quote this striking statement: “If it is remembered that milk is the principal material for the building of a race, irreplaceable by any other food in nearly all cases, that it is the most important of the protective foods, and that ac- cording to our own studies and those of our co-workers it has, further- more, an inhibitory action of precocious sexual development, the primary interest of the Department of Public Health, Social Security and Welfare in its maximum consumption will be understood.” Attempts to decrease infant mortality are useless if the child and th nursing mother do not get sufficient milk, and moral education of children becomes purposeless if through lack of milk puberty is advanced and, with this, precocious differentiations result in organic and psychologic unbalance.
