Our Next Task

Since the last issue of the Leader

task?" 1t is impossible to print these
letters in full: Following are excerpts
from a few of them:
Mrs. Frank Elliott, Hillsboro, N. D.
-"Last fall, when our women could
vote for the first time, many consid-
cred it a novelty and cast their vote
without any thought of the why
Others, busy farm women, didn't seem
to think that their votes counted. If

won. Bringing home to them the fact
that through the ballot they can bet

ARE WE ACCESSORIES?

Editor Nonpartisan Leader: There many
ways of being accessory to other persons sins,
of which is silence. Farmers work hard for long
hours so that the middlemen's wives may enjoy life
while their own are drudges. Why toll they do
to send the children of the mddlemen to colleges
while their children so rarely enter even high
school? Why is this? Let the women explain, as
they we'll can MARY G. WALSH.

give the explanation that "the attention of modern
inventors and scientists has been turned toward
other fields of industry"
What other 'fe1ds of industry" have been given
such attention by inventors recently as war? Ber-
nard Shaw, in recent play, tells about an inventor
who had patented improved feboat. But his
daughter, who wanted money badly, told him fatty
to give up the invention: "There is no money" she
said, ain saving life What you want to invent is
something that will kill faster"
Ninety-three per cent of national budget goes
toward meeting the expenses of past, present and
future wars. Is it any wonder that inventors would
rather turn their attention to work that will result
in killing faster, rather than waste their time
in inventions that will life and make farm
ing and housework easier? Is it any wonder that
we hear daily of new gases and poisons, deadly
that three drops, falling from airplane, would
kill human being, while small flask might wipe
out an army? While inventors are engaged
in this task, the farmer and his wife go on with
their labor, much as they did hundred thou
sand years ago, to make wealth for
militarists to spend

conviction that Women's Nonpar-

help to waken the most Indifferent to
the desirability of being connected
with such a live organization.
Home talent plays can do good
service for the club both in filling the
local club treasury and in offering
another occasion that calls Leaguers
and anti-Leaguers together. This, too,
is a feature that will be especially at
tractive to the young people in the
community, in giving them a chance
for a bit of self-expression.

DIR. LOrenZ

The quarrel over the work of DR.
Lorenz in this country is regrettable
but inevitable.
DR.. Lorenz is an Austrian. That
preiudices a few silly people against
him-the same people who object to
the Fifth Symphony and "Lohengrin''
because Beethoven and Wagner were
Germans.
But the real controversy is over
two other question. Did DR.. Lorenz
come here to advertise and subse-
quently make money, or in the spirit
Of service? And are his clinics of
any value unless the treatments he
suggests can be carried on over a
long period of time?
The first quetsion concerns medical
ethics. which are strict, and should be.
The better a doctor is, the more time,
rs a rule, he gives to free service and
The less to money-making. We doubt
if any doctor in Chicago, with one
exception, has ever accumulated mil
lion dollars from his professional
earnings.
Can the same thing be said of the
lawyers or the engineers And be-
cause doctors give away on so huge
scale, they are ticklish on questions of
financial methods.
The second question concerns med
ical practice. The best-known doctors
in DR.. Lorenz' field seem to agree that
s~lv long-continued system of ma
nipulation can accomplish much in the
usual run of cases they must treat.
Why, if DR.. Lorenz gives away his
skill in diagnosis and suggestions, our
American philanthropists in the pro-
fession should be unable or unwilling
to continue the treatments, we do not
expect to see. But perhaps they re-
gard it as asking too much of both
their trade and their time.
In any event, DR.. Lorenz seems to
have decided to persevere a while
longer. We hope some sort of CO.
operation is managed. For his skill
is unquestioned and his coming has
wakeend hopes in many a humble suf-
ferer, which it would be pity to dash
down again without eevn the possibil-
ity of consultation. Doubtless in
many cases these hopes are vain but
once reused, and left with their van /
ity unexplained, they are particularly
sad; for their victims will be left gaz-
ing down the long, dreary vista of "it
might have BEEN"
