SOBER DISCUSSION OF
COMMUNITY PROBLEMS
All Will Not Be Froth at To.
nights Meeting of
.. Retailers.

A sober discussion of community
problems, as they affect both the re-
taller and the consumer, and SER
ious consideration of plans for the
improvement of conditions in which
all are concerned is the primary pur-
pose of tonight's big meeting of Bis
marck retailers, which will be held at
the Commercial club rooms begin,
ming at O'Clock.
Believing that sometimes business
mems meetings incline to too much
seriousness, and that little. ,leayen
is often good thing. the committee
in charge has accepted the kind offer
of William L. Miller, advertising man
ager of The Bismarck Tribune, to
supply the froth, and those familiar
with Mr.. Miller's plans announce that
he and his assistants have something
really extraordinary to offer.
The amusement program will not
consume an hour al the outside. If
everyone assemblies promptly at S,
the solid business of the evening can
be taken up at 8 and disposed of in
an hour or two. The average bust
ness man realizes that in this TWEEN
tieth century hurry bnrly life cooper
alton is prime requisite. Tonight
Bismarck retailers will be given an
opportunity to cooperate in the eX
change of ideas; in the combining of
forces for the general good. and the
committee in charge trusts that every
man who is in business and who has
the community's welfare at heart will
attend, bringing with him members

A. There is d lack OF uniformity OF
grades in different markets. For eX'
ample, certain grade, OF corn may
not mean exactly the same in Mime
apolis, Cincinnati and Baltimore.
First Steps Toward Federal Inspection
This last difficulty, the fact that
grades are not uniform in different
states, has already led to government
action to secure STANDARDIZATION
grades. After several years OF lnves'
tigation, the federal government 5es-
tablished federal corn grades in jan
uary, 1914. These are not compul-
sorry, but within a few months they
had been adopted by several state in
spection departments and by many
grain exchanges, especially in the
Middle West. The Eastern markets
have not shown a disposition TO use
federal standards. Federal standard
ization is highly desirable, and should
undoubtedly be made compulsory.
Arguments Pro and Con.
The demand for federal control has
taken the form of demand for ac-
tual federal inspection. Senator Nc
Cumber Of North Dakota introduced
a bill providing for federal inspection
of grain carried in interstate com
merce in 1903 At first it attracted
but little attention, but he reintro-
duced the bill each succeeding year
until 1914-15, when it came to vote
in the senate and was defeated.
The feeling has developed that in
spection by federal inspectors is too
radical a step. The federal govern

ment has no jurisdiction over ship
ments within the state, and conse-
inspection service with conflicts of
jurisdiction between federal and state
inspection departments. Such a sys-
TEN would largely increase the num-
Der of federal employees, condition
which finds disfavor among many
people. But most important, it ap-
pears that the favorable results that
might be accomplished by federal in.
spection can be achieved by less rad
ical means. nr-- -.t... .... -. ma
The Proposed Supervision Plan.
This feeling has led TO The intro

In, the preceding article on grain in
states have adopted state inspection
and grading OF grain, whereas in 9TH
ers this service is still performed by
private exchanges. .,a Although Mime
sofa has probably developed state in
spections as we'll as any state, figures

possible efficiency has not been reach
ed. Dissatisfaction with the present
system, or mixture of different sys-
TENS in different states, has led to an
agitation for action by the federal
government. ing
Why Federal inspection Is Wanted.
The principal conditions which
have given rise to this demand for
federal inspection or supervision are
as, follows: ID sts,..
l. There is feeling that state in
spection does not yield efficient and
impartial results. The figures on re-
inspections and appeals in Minnesota
apparently bear this out. @
2. There is suspicion on the part
Of shippers in important grain states
that have no primary markets and
who have to rely on the inspection
departments of other states. For ex-
ample, the shippers in North Dakota
have long chafed under the fact that
their grain is subject to Minnesota
inspection. Even if unjustified, the
very fact that there is suspicion and
dissatisfaction is strong argument
for federal control. .-......... .. g.. ..
3. There is serious conflict Of jur-
isdiction between the several states.
For example, the shippers of Kansas
market their grain largely through
the great primary market at Kansas
City, which is in Missouri, where Mis-
souri, state inspection applies. Kan
sas has its own inspection depart
ment, which has attempted to grade
all grain arriving in the yards at Kan
sas City, Kansas, which is across the
river from Kansas City, Missouri.
Dealers and shippers objected to this
practice, and stopped using Kansas
inspections. The Kansas City (Mo.)
Board of Trade established an inspec-
tion department of its own to procure
samples from cars on the Kansas
side, and grade them on the Missouri
side. If such grain is transferred to

ARE WARNED TO BEWARE
Of GRIP DRUG statesmen
Bismarck Pharmacists Told to Be
on Lookout for Peddlers Who
Handle Fake Goods.

Beware of the grip drug sales
man is the warning that came the
past week to pharmacists and drug
gists of Bismarck and vicinity. II is
said that number of statesmen who
sell directly to the pharmacists from
sample" stocks carried in grips have
been operating in the northwestern
and central states of late. They have
offered certain drugs, it is said. at as
tonishingly low prices, considering
the fact that the war has forced most
drugs away up, and sales have been
many and, in some cases, large.
1t is claimed, however, that analy.
sis Of some Of the samples have
shown them to be fakes, pure and
simple, some of them containing up
sand or both. Arrests have been
made in some places of the vendors
Of the fake drugs. -.g4 - sf...
The Dye Situation. ,,4
Bismarck Druggists state that there
has lately been great demand for
the cheap ten-cent per package dyes.
especially in the colors red, green and
purple. Wholesalers, it is said, have
had agents about the country ihuyiny
up these package dyes, especially in
these colors, because the dyes Of
these colors are very scarce and are
going up rapidly in price.
1t is stated, furthermore, that un-
less manufacturers in this country
commence making these colors soon
they will be unobtainable iefore the
end of the year. Many firms have
been experimenting in the nlanufac-
ture of these colors. but il is claimed
that success has not attended their
efforts.
Inks of these colors are also be-
coming very scarce and high priced
and the copper country is feeling tie
effect of the scarcity of coloriag nat
ter for inks as we'll as is the rest of

Officials Point Out That No
Complaint of Inhumanity
Has Been Made
From The Tribune Bureau

Washington, Dec. 4.-State Depart
ment officials said to-day that no COM
psrison could be drawn between the
deportations of Belgians and the coer-
Give measures of the Allies in Greece.
The course Of the United States in
making representations to Germany
about Belgium, while ignoring the
Greek situation, was defended
The principal difference between the
two situations, high official explained,
is that there have been no complaints
of inhumanity in the operations in
Greece. IL was pointed out that with
regard TO Belgium the United States
had taken its stand solely on the
ground of humanity.
The Greek government has COM
planned to the United Stats that her
sovereignty is being violated, but this
question, officials hold, is one in which
foreign powers cannot concern them
selves. The situation from legal
point Of view is somewhat analogous
TO Germany's violation Of Belgian neu-
trSlity, in which the United States re-
fused to intervene.
Other differences are-frst. the fact
that Belgium repeatedly urged the
United States TO intercede, while
Greece has sought only this govern
ment's sympathy; second, the United
States, through administering the Bel
gian relief, has a peculiar interest in
the welfare OF the Belgian people;
and, third, Belgium is a country At
war, occupied by the enemy and with
out direct means of communication
with its enemies, while Greece is neu-
trail and is able to negotiate directly
with the Allies.

them were Cardinal Annette, Arch

historian.
Pope Benedict appeared stronger and
more energetic than ever as he deliv-
cred his allocution in Latin, in which
special emphasis was laid on the pas
sages concerning the war, the deporta
ton of Belgians and the bombardment
of undefended towns. Afterward he
created ten new cardinals, all Of them
belonging to Entente Allied countries.
They are:
