1t is not surprising therefore that
alcohol should commonly be regarded
as stimulant. However, the same
action continued further affects the
next lower levels of the nervous
system, causinng interference with
the process Of ordination and
deteriorates the intelligence so that
if the dose Of alcohol is increased,
the witty conversation will degen-
crate into tiresome loquaciousness
and the blurred speech of intoxica-
ton.
Alcohol is therefore unsuitable for
the highest mental efforts or during
the performance Of prolonged mus
cular feats. In some people the con-
troll Of the body by the highest
nerve centers is developed to an ex-
cessive degree, so that their consti-
tuition may actually interfere with
the carrying out of complicated acts
acquired by constant practice. To
such individuals alcohol acts as a
relaxation, diminishing the nerve
tension. A man Of this type who
plays golf sometimes improves his
tcchnic by small dose Of alcohol.

With summer actually here, there comes heart.
cning news in announcement that the municipal
swimming pool will be opened next week
This summer, especially, can look with special
pride on this pocl representing, it does, great
achievement for the community and more particu-
larry for the Elks lodge. Fargo, last winter, voted
down projected bond issue for pool in that city,
despite an intensive educational campaign.
1t Fargoans who supported the swimming pool
in their city could molly have brought residents Of
Bismarck to talk with the projects opponents, they
would surely have victory. As time goes on,
we are realizing and more the value of this
peel, not only as civic asset, but as thing of
real value in providing recreation for the whole
city
1t is we'll for us to again give credit to the Eks
for their fine work. Everyone in Bismarck is proud
of the pool and they have not forgotten through
whose efforts this worthy project was brought into
being.

In this connection it might be well to point out
that second and far-reaching change in compare

; Saint ''|Sh1llIlle:rH

At twelve o'clock that dreadful
night Faith telephoned for young DR.
Atkins, who had attended her mother
in the last year Of her illness. Cherry
had been weeping continuously fol
two hours, and nothing that Faith
could say or do could stop those ter
rible, racking sobs.
"I'm afraid she's going to make
herself SO i'll that she will lose her
baby" Faith told Bob when he Joined

firmly. Then his face softened, and
he took her in his arms, murmured
over her comfortingly."
As she forced Cherry to rest her
icy little feet on the hot water bot

tie hands. Faith was thinking drear-
lily that all her fears Of this first day
with the family had not dared picture
anything so terrible as had actually
happened. Cherry was jealous--in-
sancly jealous-of her sister and her
sisters husband. Could it be pos
sible that Cherry still loved Bob
Hathaway, to whom she had once
been engaged and whose love she
had for1el.ed in philandering with
other men? Oh. dear Lord, not that!
Faith prayed, her heart like lead in
her breast.
When the doctor arrived at last
he did not mince matters with his
patient. He had already had talk
with Bob Hathaway before he en-
tered Cherry's room, and his voice,
when he spoke to her, was sharp,
staccato:

The Value of Railroads

The railroads of this country are one of the prin-
cipal contributors to national prosperity, w. G.
Beser. first vice president of the American Rail-
way association, believes. He traces the status of
his own industry in relation to the general business
cycle in a very convincing way. THAT the rail-
roads are an important factor in the industrial life
OF the nation is shown by the fact that in 1925 they
bought about % per cent of the total coal output
OF the United States and 20 per cent Of the
fuel oil production he points out "They also
took about Is per cent of the total amount of un-
Der and timber cut in the United States while their
direct and indirect consumption was close to %
per cent. In addition railroad purchases accounted
directly and indirectly for quarter Of the total
iron and steel output of the country"
Statistics are usually dry reading, but the fore
going ones are graphic enough to give an accurate
picture OF the extent Of the influence of the rail
roads purchasing power. in addition to their serv-
ice as transportation agents. 1t is notable in this
connection that purchases of fuel materials and sup
plies by railroads in 1926 amounted to- 81 $50 O32-
331, the greatest amount ever spent for that pur-
pose by the railroads of the United States in any
year, with the exception of 1928
The railroads undoubtedly one of the control
ing factors IN the economic welfare of the nation
Not only with regard to number of important
commodities are they among the larges purchasers,
but they also render vital service to the public in
the form of transportation. In addition to this
they distribute nearly three billion dollars a year
in wages, which largely paid out by railroad
employees in purchasing the products of industry

Five hundred employees and not single telephone
that is the unique distinction of the claims divi-
sion of the general government accounting office,
which is presided over by Comptroller General Nc

It seems that Stewart B. Tuloss, chief of the
division, believes that its business is best trans
acted by correspondence and by that alone There

calculating machines monographs and all other
appurtcnances of modern business, the ring of the
telephone is sound unknown.
The department of justice, however, so violently
dsagrees with General Tulloss that he has been
asked to alter the situation 1t seems that attor-
neys for the department often required to study
files sent up by the claims division and frequently
puzzling situations encountered. Instead of
being able to reach Tulloss Immediately by tele-
phone, trip to the claims division is necessary
where further delay is encountered while cards are
being sent in and an interview awaited.
Tuloss's policy, the attorneys insist runs coun-
ter to that Of General Lord director of the budget
who repeatedly has urged the elimination OF cor
.rdspondence in transactions Of interdepartmental
business and increased use Of the telephone.
General Lord is quite right and Mr.. Tulloss is
a. equally wrong. It is uncomfortable that the
present situation could exist long without change

Police Censorship on News

| The acten of Borough Manager c. B. Lohse,
OF keansburg, N. j., in denying access to the po
lice records by reporters is to be cmphatically cen
demned Certainly it reflected poor judgment ane
quite likely disrespect for the law which make
all information contained on Police blo.ter public
property.
The excuse given By Manager Lohsen for this
rigid censorship is that the printing in the news
papers OF the information contained the police
records would reflect against the borough Of Keans
burg. All we have to say in this connection is
that If conditions in keansburg, II. j., are thai
bad it is high time some publicity given them
so that the decent citizens Of the place could de
mand that something be done about it.
Mr.. Lohsen is in his job of managing a
municipality and doubtless he believes that man.
ager has extraordinary powers. In this, however,
ne is greatly mistaken He is but the appointed
representative Of governing board chosen by the
people. He only has that power which the people
give him through their elected representation. He
cannot assume the Mussolini role legally.
Americans resent censorship of any kind It IS
nimical to the public interest especially where i:
affects news vital to the public For years the
struggle Of the American newspapers against at
tempts to limit their privileges has been upheld at
all points by the highest courts. The history of
American liberty is history of free press, re-
fleeing in its pages the true state of affairs of
town, state and nation Without this exposition of
the affairs Of the community the people of Amer
lea would be subject to betrayal at the hands of
their representatives.
Manager Lohsen, with his police censorship, has
violated fundamental principle of our democracy
and should correct his mistake before real mischief
is done.

alone. Stop that crying this min

When Faith had brought him the
water and spoon he shooed her
brusquelb out Of the room. closing
the door firmly upon himself and his
patient. Faith walked on slow, lead
en- feet into the living room, where
she found Bob seated in the big wing
chair, JOY Graded in his arms, fast
asleep. His face, leaning against
joys tow head, was gentle again, but
the eyes he raised to greet her were
so sad that she wanted to cry.
''Pll put Joy to bed with Dad"
Faith whispered. She could hardly
hear to look at him, SO terrible it was
to see that resigned, sad, almost
hopeless look in his eyes-eyes that
had glowed and sparkled with happi-
ness and love no more than seven
hours ago.
After Joy had been laid, sleeping,
beside her father who was also sleep
ing. Faith went back to sit with Bob
ed his lecture to Cherry. They scarce

ing hers, seemed like other flesh than
that which had made every cell in
her body sing with JOY.
"Well, that's that" DR.. Atkins said
briskly. as he stepoed into the liv-
ing room. She'll sleep now. You
two can go to bed. I'd rather you
did not 60 in there again, Faith. Now
want YOU to promise me one thing,
young woman. Don't pamper Cher

for nerves, and it won't do them any
good for you to coddle her and give
in to her every whim. Make her

that won't be too painful, consider
ing everything. Promise me?'

Cool Evenings in South Dakota

lhere may be hot afternoons in Montana as
certain OF our younger poets have assured us; but
across the border, in South Dakota, the evenings.
at any rate, are cool. The snowstorm just reported
from the Black Hills is happy augur It bears
out the cooling forecasts Of Mr.. P. c. Day Of the
weather bureau, to whom President Coolidge is in
debted for Nest suggestive study of the climate
OF custer State Park site of the summer white
house. The weather bureau has operated station
at Hermosa fer thirty years, AS Hcrmosa is only
eight miles from the state game lodge where the
president is to live, and as the altitude of the two
places is about the same $500 feet above sea level
Mr.. Day was able to furnish authoritative prognos-
ticatons.
Inc mean summer temperature averages between
% and 20 degrees While the thermometer once
IN thirty years climbed to 1O6, the chances are
strongly against its repeating that mistake this
year. The daytime temperature runs around rs or
80 degrees fairly moderate for the summer sea-
son. while the nights usually about 80 degrees
cooler, assuring comfortable sleeping conditions
Only occasionally are high winds recorded, the av-
erage velocity being about eight miles an hour.
That should not interfere with the cast of possa-
mer lily. Or does the president use worms? The
correspondents did not tell us last summer.
Best of all, humidity is rarely oppressive at any
time Of day, and is agreeably low during the warm
err portions" The old bromide about heat and hui
Nudity has peculiar force for Neutrality-suspicious..
The president. who knows what the capital can do
in summer time. must relish Mr.. Days assurance
that although the temperature in the Black Hills
may occasionally be as high, the lower humidity
gives opportunity for evaporation the cooling ef-
feet Of which overcomes much Of the oppressive
mugginess that frequently accompanies high tenn
peratures at Washington" That is mild descrip-
tion OF Washington hot spells. They dull the in
tellect, and there. is quality about them that
makes life seem altogether mean and Improbable.
It is said Of Mr.. Root that when he was secretary
