Water Meetings One of the most significant developments in Western North Dakota are the water conservation meetings which now are being held in many places. All of them occur as the result of local initiative and each has the same aim, to develop and promote the use of water re- sources as an improvement to the regional economy. This is a distinct encouragement to all who have contended that it is only good sense to bring our resources of brains, manpower, soil and’ water together as an insurance to our range, | our agriculture and to our community developments, It is all the more surprising because of the fact that this was a season in which average rainfall was received, even though production was below normal. On Oct. 30 the rainfall at Bismarck totalled 15.58 inches, as compared with a normal of 15.15. The only variation from average was that no rainfall was received in May and precipita- tion for June was heavier than usual. But people had begun to think in terms of water. They noted that July, August and September were months in which supplemental water wouli have been useful in crop production. Many now have accepted the idea that irrigation agriculture will succeed in this area in a NORMAL year. In drouth years, of course, it would be invaluable, but in thor mewspa.

Scenes Washington By RODNEY DUTCHER (Tribune Washington Correspondent) Washington, Nov. 3.—It is interest- ing to watch the growth of an incip- ient war psychology in Washington. In fact, it is so interesting to some persons who are especially sensitive on the subject of war that it gives them cold chills. No one thinks we are really going to war, of course. But so many of both the best and most indifferent minds here are talking about what it would be if we did, that it would be holding out on the reader not to mention it. In no time at all, Washington—high and low—has come to be teeming with people who turn out to be military- naval strategists of the most articu- late order. xe x Imaginations Run Riot Senator M. M. Logan of Kentucky. who ranks well up on the senate mili- tary affairs committee, proposes & naval blockade of Japan which he thinks would make the Japanese be- have. For one such suggestion made publicly a Washington correspondent can hear a hundred in private. Roosevelt, with his warning “let no one imagine that America will es- cape,” and his advocacy of collective against aggressor na- tons, started all this. He left the imagination free to roam the distance between an admonitory shake of the finger at Japan and posi- tive military-naval action in a “pre- ventive war.” He can have no complaint as to the inactivity of local imaginations, in- cluding those of men in the higher official rungs. Military apd naval men naturally,| in view of their function, speak in terms of action. But they're far from the only ones who can tell you how long it would take to develop an ef- fective bombing base in Alaska.| (About a year, if you want to know) And of course the pacifist groups are indulging in more war talk than anyone, since they consider if their job to warn everybody that ditching the neutrality act is our first step to- ward international conflict. * ok Ox What F.

OVER*ACCELERATION OF MARKET VALUES THE THROWBACK IN CATTLE BREEDING A breeder of registered Guernsey cattle, referring to a recent article this column in which the unreality of the fiction of the to white or apparently white parents was pointed out, comment: “Regarding the throwback in the color line, we have a similar difficulty to contend with. One of the two French breeds of cattle that went on! Islands of Jersey and Guernsey nearly a thousand years ago had black Nearly all Jerseys now have black noses, Guernsey cattle nearly all have light or buff noses. But occasionally Jerseys have buff noses and Guernapys have black noses, Black noses are not fashionable in Guernseys; breeders use a black nosed bull or a black nosed cow. But try as we have for genera- tions to eliminate the black noses, they still appear from buff nosed parents. It seems to me they appear in the Mendelian ratio as Mendel’s law hold?” Mendel’s attempt to explain inheritance is not a law, white parents, though not merely because I have also because I have never met any one who has seen sich a case.

Acceptance of that fact is the most significant thing about tthe continuing—and growing—demand for sound water develop- ment. Local interest in water resources has a further signifi- cance. It has the effect of stimulating action, of bringing nearer the time when the developments now sought will become a reality. It is fundamntal that government cannot do for people with the same efficiency what people can do for themselves: that gifts presented without request are not fully appreciated. Because of this it has long been obvious that a water de- Copyright 1937, by The Baltimore Sus president.

Present indications are that the CIO campaign has created more of a mess for labor than it has for employers. Lewis’ in- sistence on domination and the way in which he has, in effect, denied voting power to the rank and file, have made many potential converts suspicious of him: American workingmen are not thick-headed by any means and they ars beginning to wonder whether they are not putting their foot in a trap when they place their affairs in the hands of Lewis and his associates. Though these men publicly -ad- Vocate industrial democra¢y their methods constitute a denial of their preaching. Failure of the AFL and the CIO to reach a working agree- ment also is throttling down the labor movement. The publicity attending this war has scared away many men who might have joined one or the other union. America’s labor troubles are.not yet over. Its labor policy | for the immediate future remains to be determined. But. of one thing everyone can be certain. That is the fact that pres- sure for additional laws in labor’s favor will be much less effec- tive in the future than in the past. ; Labor constitutes the dominant political force in the na- tion today, the term in this instance being applied to the nearly 40,000,000. who work for-a living. But only a little over 6,000,000 are organized by both the AFL and the CIO, and the vast unorganized majority is beginning to wonder whether it isn’t being treated to high-pressure salesmanship which may get it into trouble. : It isn’t just an accident that strike news has disappeared from the front pages in recent. months. The simple fact is that the bulk of the people have begun to look carefully before join- ing new organizations and the organizations themselves have begun ‘to examine conditions minutely before they launch strikes which may bring down adverse public opinion, Billy—Then who tells you what you ought not to do?
