Nov. 3, 1937. Editor, Tribune: “The Great Game of Politics,” is the heading of an article Frank R. Kent, printed in The Bismarck Tribune, Nov. 1, from the Baltimore Sun. And, what a game it is, was [pare more clearly indicated than by that article. In Oct., 1929, we experienced a stock market crash that was the fore- Tunner of general business stagna- tion so devastating that by 1932 the whole economic system was demoral- ized and fast approaching chaos, Not with any intelligent expecta- ton of achieving relief, but in des- peration, the people turned the Re- publicans out and put the Democrats in. So far as filling the halls of con- gress with intelligent, sincere and conscientious supporters of Democ- racy, they accomplished nothing. The great bulk of influential, pro- fessional Democratic politicians are the same servile double-crossing, hypocritic supporters of economic royalty as the Republicans. But there must be a “just God who presides over the destinies of nations,” for it just happened that the candi- date for p lent on the Democratic ticket was an intelligent man of vision and foresight. To his side gathered the liberal and progressive- minded of every political faith. the AAA, calculated to raise the in- jcome of the farmer. There was also much talk about surpluses, and purchasing power, Prattled about in a vague and dis- jointed way by all the means af in- formation and communication, but never was the scintillating glare of logical analysis applied, telling the people that their lost purchasing power was the profits that followed to those who own this nation by bond, deed, mortgage and franchise, and that the surplus goods which clogged the arteries‘of trade and promoted industrial paralysis were the goods which this purchasing power repre- sented, and that never can perma- nent recovery be sustained until we find some way to stop the concen- tration of this purchasing power into the hands of those physically incap- able of using it. In the meantime the mercury in the economic thermometer began to rise. Big business was fest regain- ing its old-time confidence and ar- rogance. They repented that they nad aided and abetted the president in instituting mildly restraining legislation. But the supreme court, ancient bulwark of special privilege, with its usurped powers, came to their rescue and blasted the hateful legis- ation off of the political map. “The hypocritical Democrats were chafing under the domination of the president but feared in incur the wrath of the people in the face of his manifest popularity. But as the kept press became louder and more clamorous in its denunci- ation, of the president, their courage arose until the more vindictive threw discretion to the winds and boldly championed the cause of the economic royalists in the name of liberty and the constitution, The blood transfusions and hypos injected into the dying anatomy of ‘Capitalism culminated in the busi- ness revival of 1936 and 1937 when leading businesses reported profits Operates Weekly Yeung Printers When the printer left suddenly and unexpectedly these two girls, Francine Fiske, 16, (left), and Irene Turner, 18, (right), started setting type and got out two quick editions of the Pioneer-Arrow at Fort Yates. They placed the paper back on schedule and they were “newsy issues,” too, declares Publisher Frank Fiske. In the face of —_———_ ‘ir. excess of 1929, although six million or so of people never got off of re- jlief. is And now another stock market crash, indicating that Capitalism still is suffering from the old madaly of \concentrated purchasing power, made more malignant by increased produc- tivity through further mechanization of factories, is about to lapse into another fit of depression. this stock market crash forboding disaster, Frank R. Kent, mouthpiece of as unscrupu- lous a crew as ever slit a throat or scuttled a ship, is chortling in high glee at the anticipated discomfort and harrassment of the man who had the influence and tenacity to take advantage of their hour of weakness and attempt to write a “thus far and no farther” to their exploitations. “What a game.” 8. G, STEDMAN. Is Bound Over on Gas Tax, Forgery Charges A. F. Koehler, Brampton, N. D., gasoline dealer, was bound over to the Sargent county district court on two charges of forgery and another charge of filing a felse claim for gas tax refund when he was given a pre- Uminary hearing before a justice of the peace Monday, State Tax Com- missioner Owen T. Owen said Tues- day. Koehler’s arrest was the first made “Jas the result of a state-wide investi- gation of gasoline tax refunds by the tax commissioner's office.
