POWERS ACTING
ON I'M Alone
U. S. Consul in British
Colony Threatened

WASHINGTON, March 2S.-At-
torney-General Mitchell took care
today to declare that the investiga-
ton he is carrying on into the sink
ing of the British rum-runner, "Im
Alone" does not have international
implications but is only concerned
with the prosecution against the
members of the ships crew. 1t is
probable that the crew will be made
the butt if Britain and France con-
tinue to press the case.
The British consul at New Or
leans declares that the ship was
fired upon outside of the 12-mile
limit, while the coast guards hold
they started the chase within the
limit. The French ambassador has
also started an investigation since
the sailor who was drowned proved
to be French citizen.

SHANGHAI, China, March 28.-
Reports from Marking state that
General Ii Chai-sum, commanding
Kwantung, was shot there at IL a.
m. on orders of Chang Kai-shek.
Further credence was lent the
first report by second stating that
WI Tze-hui, aged Kuomintang poll
tician and guarantor of Lis safety,
had committed suicide following the
execution of Ii. 1t is said that, ac-
cording to ancient Chinese practice,
he felt unable to sustain the disgrace
of having his promise of safety v1o-
lated.
Ii Chai-sum, Canton warlord, was
arrested during the sessions of the
Kuomintang congress in Nanking.
He was suspected of being about to
send aid to the Wuhau generals.
The immediate event which precipi-
tated his arrest is believed to have
been the flight to Shanghai of Yu
Yu-jen, member of the Left wing"
in the Kuomintang who threatened
to form Kuomintang congress in

THE BAND

Wolf Point has a school band
of which we may justly be proud.
A man from a neighboring town
who heard them the other evening
expressed his appreciation and at
tie same time his surprise at the
class of music they played. He
said frankly that his own town
high school had nothing like it.
Perhaps we are inclined to ac-
cept a good school band as a
matter of course, the music de-
partment being a regular part of
the school. But it should be a
matter of congratulation that our
young people have such an ex-
cellent opportunity to include
musical training along with the
three RS. The ability to play
some band or orchestra instru-
ment learned in the Wolf Point
school has proved the open sesame
to many doors of opportunity for
a number of the Wolf Point gradu-
ates who have gone on to school
or away to teach. 1t has given
them a means of giving pleasure
to themselves and to others. The
cultural training received has
made for a greater appreciation
Of all music.
And to those who hear the fin
shed performance, smooth and
polished in it's completion, there
come the thought of the
ong hours of practice which have
made this possible. 1t has taken
OTIS of work and patience to pro-
luce a band like the Wolf Point
High School organization, and we
Wish to express u appreciation
# it and of the leadership of Mr..
simon.

the prescribed rules, rests with
those few who made the rules or
their deputies.
A few years ago the theory was
held by alienists and criminologists
that a person who deliberately COM
mitted a crime was either mentally
or morally i'll. He was sub-nOrmal,
mot all there" or he was a degen-
crate lacking in moral sense. And
yet today many who pride themsel-
yes on their smartnesS and bust
ness Gunner have no particular
hesitancy about placing themsel-
yes in that class.
The actions of such persons re-
mind one of a group of school boys
who feel that they and the teacher
are antagonists. 1t is the teachers
duty to make them learn and to
make them behave in an orderly
manner, and if they can get through
school by learning the minimum
necessary to acquire a passing
mark, they have put something owe
on the teacher. The fundamental
laws of u country are made not
for the purpose of coercion, but
for the purpose of giving freedom
and liberty to the greatest number
possible. In an ideal state, where
men were sufficiently advanced
intellectually to see the wisdom
of playing the game of life accord
ing to the prescribed rules, courts
of law and enforcement officers
would be superfluous, for every
one would be literally self gov
erning.
That people not only of Roose-
welt county, but of other surround
ing counties are interested in the
outcome of the movement that
was started by the good govern
ment meeting this week, is a ia
vorable omen, indicating that
citizens are turning their atten-
ton to law enforcement which
will eventually result in the higher
type of self government.

IN GREATEST DEMAND

Advertised products are approx
mately 80 times as popular as
those that are not advertised,
according to a recent test made
by representatives of the ~Interna-
tional Advertising Association.
Two similar products, the ad-
vertising association says, were
in a number of representative
communities placed on sale by re-
putable dealers. One as advertis-
ed, the other was not.
Results show that:
87.6 times the customer bought
the advertised product.
3.6 times the customer bought
the unadvertised product.
SIS times the customer had no
preference.
Two similar articles were plac-
ed on sale at another time. One
was advertised and sold at a high
er price than the other. The re-
suit showed that:
600 times the customer bought
he advertised product.

SELF GOVERNMENT

In his eloquent address at the
banquet Monday evening Judge
Borton emphasized the thought
that the principle upon which the
Constitution of the United States
is founded, the principle for which
our early countrymen fought and
suffered, is the right to be self
governing.
This does not in any sense mean
that every mar may be a law unto
himself regardless of how his acts
may affct others, for the more peo-
pie their are and the closer they
come in contact n with another
the more need there is for rules
and regulations which will prevent
the rights of one person from in
fringing on those of another. Nor
it mean that, having chosen
our representatives to make the
laws-the rules of the game, if
you please, that all responsibility
or playing the game according to

A MASTER AT THE HELM

" 1ih -
Millions have been waiting for
what President Hoover had to say
to the country. Monday they
listened to or later will read his
inaugural address. In terms of
popular slang they heard an ear
full. Those in doubt as to his
position and opinion on certain
issues need doubt no longer.
Many who voted for Herbert
Hoover feared he would evade,
straddle or slur over the grave
issue arising out of the 18th
amendment, while some who vot-
ed for him and many who voted
against him hoped he would do so.
There were those who doubted
if the first public %utterance Of
Hoover. the president, would
square with Hoover. the candid
ate. on the farm and other vital
questions, but now all such find
their uncertainty happily wiped
out.
If the inaugural speeches of all
of our t%hirty-one presidents We're
bound together in a volume the
readers of America would search
in vain for a more concise, clean
cut, positive, and logically master
full statement of views and declar-
alton of intentions than the n
made March 4th by the 31st
president.
The editor cannot resist break
ing into a personal Wien and con
fding to Herald readers that
seldom if ever has an official ut
terance so thrilled and inspired
him, or brought such a degree of
A-mericanism, pride and e~xultation.
There came the thuoght that a
master hand had gripped the helm
of the ship of state.
There came the thought a master
hand had gripped the helm of the
ship of state.
Callous, Indifferent or ignorant,
it seems, must be he or she who
feels no response in their heart to
the note of courage and compel
ence and to the sincerity of the
appeal that run through the new
presidents speech. 1t is not nee
essary to be in complete agree
ment with him to recognize and
admire the forcefulness and the
splendid equipment this typical
American, and great engineer of
human affairs, brings to the high
Office to which he has been called.
1t has often been maintained
that Calvin Coolidge was popular
because he never rocked the boat.
1t is true. He sat in silence in
the middle seat. He caused no
commotion to disturb the even
keel of the craft. Herbert Hoover,
likewise, will refrain from rock
ing the vessel Of business and pro
gress but he will be found in the
helmsman's seat with a powerful
hand on the tiller and a practical
eye on the course ahead.
With a masterful grasp of his
power and responsibility as skip
per, he may be trusted to do his
sincere best to neither rock the
national craft or allow it unduly
to be rocked. 1t is no rash pre-
diction to venture that Herbert
Hoover, himself, will be PRESI-
DENT.
(Note:-Written and mailed i'm
mediately after listening to ex-
cellent radio reception of the !
inaugural program by a private l
radio. 1t will be most interesting I
to note how the presidents ad-
dress is received by the press and
public.-The Editor.

Cling along the strip of Atlantic
seaboard. And the marvel of this
document is that while it was cal
culated to govern four millions of
people, with the addition of a few
amendments from time to time, it
has proved adequate to govern the
vast domain that the United
States has now become, a wealthy
nation whose population has in
creased to 120, 900, 900.
Not one of the men who signed
the Declaration of independence,
and later the Constitution, but
who could probably have made
more money for himself if he had
remained in the service of the
King. Not one but who was call
ed on to sacrifice material things
for the principle of self-govern-
ment. But these men were not
looking for a little more money,
land grant concessions and the
like, they were not governed by
expediency. They knew that they
would suffer for their principles,
but they felt the crown we'll worth
the price-a crown such as has
graced the brow of no king or
emperor-the right to be self
governing.
Greatness Not Inherited
Judge Borton called attention to
the fact that none of that little
handful of great men, ever had
a son who achieved distinction in
his own right. Greatness, he said,
is not hereditary and probably this
is the best thing, for each new
generation produces it's own il
l%ustriOus men, who somehow catch
the inspiration of the underlying
principle of our democracy and
are able to carry on the torch of
national tradition, becoming lead
ers in times of crisis adequate to
the need. And frequently these
OouCi rave iloCh HOhi hullDlo
homes. Abraham Lincoln was the
only member of his family who
attained to fame. His father
was proud that he could not write
own name, and thought Abe
wouldn't amount to much because
he spent too much time fooling
with books.
Citizenship of this country, on
-inued Judge Borton, demands
hat we uphold the Constitution
which has given us liberty within
law, such liberty as enjoyed
the citizens of no other coun-
ny. Although ignorance of the
aw does not excuse a law kreak-
,r, yet a distinction must be made
between an ignorant law breaker
md a wilful law breaker. The
deliberate law breaker
night just as well walk up to the
portrait of Washington and spit in
lis face, for by his deliberate law
collation. he insults the memory
# that great man.
Judge Borton concluded by
ongratulating Wolf Point and
Roosevelt county on their stand
nd their endeavor to get together
or better law enforcement.

ADDRESSES MARK
GOOD GOVERNMENT
Continued from first page)

the address of welcome. Mayor
Stennes said that the question
which is bothering people today
is just how to make law enforce
ment effective. He said that he
believed in using good common
sense, and that he considered that
the successful enforcement officer
was the one who used common
sense in dealing with those who
came before him. He said of
course there were those who be-
lieved in dotting the is and cross
ing the is and letting the chips
fall where they might, but that
an official should think seriously
before putting a subject of this
country or of any country in the
position of a criminal, and that
the best results would be achieved
by giving consideration to the
people in general.
A fitting response was made by
Mayor Sands of Bainville, who
spoke briefly. He said that he
felt the day would be well spent
if it yielded nothing more than
the considerable knowledge which
might be gained from the ex-
change of ideas by the various
city officials.
Mr.. Marion in Introducing Sup
erintendent Eggers, urged that the
various speakers of the afternoon
not be hesitant about discussing
in detail their subjects as the only
way to enforce law is to have
everybody's cooperation.
Conditions on Reservation
Superintendent Eggers said that
when he came to the Fort Peck
reservation two years ago, a reser-
walton approximately forty by
eighty miles in extent, he was
supposed to interest himself in
anything that affected his Indians.
He has found it necessary to inter
est himself very strongly in the
matter of liquor law violations,
and while it is an impossible task
to dry up the reservation com
pletely, yet out of 81 or So raids
80 convictions had resulted and
IL cases are now pending in the
AS a result of the oper-
atoms of the agency force it has
been possible for the city of Pop
lar to collect $4,000 in fines in the
last two years, and a total of
about $500 has been taken in
the county.
Mr.. Eggers said it had been
charged that this vas a personal
matter with him, but that it was
lot as when he acts he does so in
MS official capacity. when l
.ook my oath to uphold and pro-
.ect the Constitution of the Unit
ID States" said Mr.. Eggers, 'that
oath meant something to me and
is long as l am a federal officer,
intend to live up to that oath" t
There are three classes of peo- |
lie according to Mr.. Eggers, who t
resent difficulties to the enforce
nent officer. The first class is de- I
ermined to engage in the liquor
rattle in spite of anything that
an be done to prevent. The e
econd class, which is larger than t
ne would think, is composed of d
hose who are Indifferent. They a
elieve that the liquor law viola h
does not affect them. Then Il
lere is a third class who are not
t all in favor of the liquor traffic, p

ess or other reasons, to stand n

THE SPIRIT WITHIN

The ideal to which we should
strive is that there should be no

not the encouragement to express
in fullest measure the spirit with

by-products, is bringing to the
agricultural section of the corn
growing states a new source of
revenue, and is offering a partial
solution to the old cry What are
we going to do when the forests
are all gomez" The idea of max
ing paper from corn stalks was
suggested as early as 1865, but it
was only recently that a method
or making cornstalk paper cheap
ly was discovered.
1t is said that the paper used
n a single Sunday edition of an
American newspaper printed in
one of the large cities, requires
THE pulp from 800 acres of forest
that took thirty fifty years to
grow. The same equivalent could
be found in 5000 acres of corn
stalks which grow up in a season.
Basing on these figures an esti-
mate of the amount of wood pulp
required to supply the country
with paper, it is easy to see why
the alarmists are worried over
the possible deforestation of the
continent, and to see at the same
time the impossibility of an over
production of cornstalks if an at
tempt is made to replace wood pa
per with corn paper. At the present
thine much of the wood for paper
comes from Canada. Production
of corn stalk paper on a large
scale would give to the American
much of the money that
goes to Canada for paper wood.
In line with this aspect of the
paper it might be remarked
Representative Laguardia OF
New York has introduced a S
in the United States house
of representatives providing for
printing the congressional records
on cornstalk paper. Eastern dailies
are featuring corn stalk editions,
but at present the supply of corn
stalk paper is very limited.
1t is held that an economical
unit for making pulp
should have a capacity of 100 tons
/ day of the finished pulp. Figur-
.ng a ton of corn stalks to the
acre, this would require $4,000
acres for a season. At the pres
ent time there are about 5000
acres put in corn in Roosevelt
as compared to about 170,-
100 acres of wheat. With the e
ent high yields on scientifically
armed fields, the tendency has
,een to plant larger acreages of
wheat and to decrease the corn
The corr brings in an
-verage of about $12 to the acre,
tut if the slower could be sold
t would add about S. to the pro-
eeds.
That such a pulp mill is not a I
PRACTICAL proposition today is
cknowledged, but, with the rapid :
that are being made in t
IL lines of progress, that it may
