Editorial Comment
An Added Thought
(Eettineer County Herajd)

James w. Gerard. formerly ambassador to Germany,
cast q proverbial bomhshel In the public thought Of the
country by the statement, "Fifty-nine men rule the
United States" Mr.. Gerard proceeded farther on By
naming the said ffty-nine. An unusual thing about the
list he made Of the ~fifty-nine was that no public official,
not even the president of the United States q any
member Of his cabinet, except Secretary Mellon Of the
treasury department. was mentioned.
MI. Gerard is credited with the statement, "AI these
men on the list are too busy to run for political Of
flee" This unusual circumstance Is not altogether I'M
possible at that. One well-known writer In treating the
Gerard statement said, 1.-THE really important man, Of
course. doesn't run when he can send q boy to run for
htm."

Better Ways

It has been conceded by many authorities that the
chief duty Of . police force Is the prevention of crime
and protection of the public, rather than the apprehen-
sion Of criminals. OF course, after a crime has been
committed. the latter objective becomes the policemans
primary aim. But the principal goal today Is that Of
seeing to the obedience Of our laws and regulations In ad-
vance. u ~ ~.
Yet this Is hardly what is being done on our high
ways. in the effort to enforce speed and other motoring
rules. Traffic officers today lie In wait behind . bush
or other covering and wait for prospective speed victims
to pass. Once they sight a prospect, they follow him for
another half mile or so. "~clocking" his speed. before
stopping him.
BY doing 80, the traffic officer permits the offending
~nnotorist just 30 much longer to endanger the lives Of
other drivers on the road. The proper oct for the off,
Ger. according TO latest principles. would be to show HIM
self at all times ON the highway.
This would make the officers Job preventive rather
than apprehsnsive. would avoid much congestion in our
courts, would increase the safety Of the highways and
would help eliminate much Of the ~il-feeling that exists
between the public and traffic police.
Alfred Reeves, general manager Of the National Auto
mobile Chamber Of Commerce suggests that every traf-
flo officer should be in full uniform while On duty. that
his motorcycle be Of q distinctive color. and that he pa
troll the highway instead Of hiding up side streets.
police stop violations promptly instead Of permitting the
motorist to speed for half . mile to make an arrest" he
says.
Nj. Reeves lives In New York and his knowledge chief
y covers the situation in the eastern states, but there are
many North Dakotans who will agree with the principles
which he enunciates.

Novelties in Shantung Suits
Discussed by Fashionist
By Wilma La Vile

dition, we will have the shan
tung suit.
Shantung is a good summer
fabric because it is so cool, is
washable, and does not wrinkle
or crush badly. Its rough sur
face follows the trend toward
more interest in the texture Of
fabrics. It dyes well, and is
equally good in light or dark
colors. We find these new
suits in black, navy. pastelS,
brown, eggshell, and so on. The
dark colorS will be best for
street or travel, the lighter
tones will be excellent for
spectator or active sports.
Sometimes this suit is COM
posed of a oue-piece dress and
a jacket. especially if it is for
a large woman. but it is usually
skirt, jacket, and tuck-in blouse.
The jacket may be made in any
new way, with simple trimming
details. Most Of the shantung
suits we've seen in Washington
have a belted or fitted
jacket, a plated skirt. which Is
newer than gored or godeted
skirts, and shantung blouse in
a contrasting color, though a
blouse of any light fabric would
be correct.
These suits are simply trim
med as their fabric interest and
color are sufficient to give them
smartness. They are extremely
practical, and will undoubtedly
enjoy great fashion prominence
and popularity throughout the
summer. The suit we have
sketched for you from a Wash
ington store is medium priced,
and is typical of the Sits that
we expect will be worn all sum-
mer.
Tomorrow Miss La Vile will
discuss the successor to the
navy geOrgette frock. She will
be glad to answer any Ques-
tiOn about these articles or

What's in Fashion?
Comfortable Silk Jacket Costumes

NEW YORK, April 29.-What
is a practical and smart costume
for . business woman who forks
in a'city-a city extremely warm
and humid during the summer?
This Is q problem confronting
many women who want to be
comfortably yet correctly dressed
when about to go about the city
streets.
/. One costume we'd suggest for
these many women
and one that is practical and
smart whether you are in the
city or suburbs and whether you
go to business or not
is the silk jacket-dress.
This. as its name implies, is q
silk dress, either sleeveless or
with short or long sleeves, that
has a short matching jacket.
You can easily see how prac-
tical 1t is. And it is just as smart
just as much in fashion
. as it Is practical.
Gives Finished Look
The light silk jacket adds no
warmth, yet it gives the fin
ished, formalized look every fash
ion-knowing woman wants when
she goes about the streets Of a
city or goes travelling.
There are various kinds Of
jackets found with such cos
tunes. The most popular type.
because 1t can be worn by any
body, regardless Of age or figure,
is the hip-length cardigan jacket
that buttons low in the front.
You can see one of these in
the sketch >of the printed silk
costume.
BOlerO Jacket
Another Is the very youth
full, very popular bolero type
Jacket, rather short and usually
left open so that the front Of
the dress shows.
This bolero may have q
plain, tailored edge or be fem
inized With ruffled or pleated
edging. One Is sketched.
We're seeing many Of these
jacket dresses in smart lunch
con places and at matinees
right now. And you can ex-
pect to see more Of them as
coats are left off.
A silk suit would be another
very fashionable and practical
costume for the business
woman. 3
In such a costume, a jacket
and skirt are combined and
worn with separate blouses.
And since there are so many
kinds of blouses in this seasons
fashion, such a costume would
provide for infinite variety.
Tomorrow: Amos Parrish
writes on new fashion trends
in table linens.
The Washington times., 1930-04-29

Fashion authorities are
prophesying a big season for
the shantung suit. It's new
fashion that has every reason to
be good, and already smart
women are buying shantung
suits for their summer or travel
wardrobes.
The general trend toward the
wearing of more suits gives this
fashion added impetus. Most
smart women prefer to wear
some type of coat on the
street. In fact, they do not
feel well dressed without a
jacket or coat, so, for the past
few seasons, we've been seeking
a suit for hot weather. Last
year it was the dark-linen suit.
and the silk jacket frock. This
year the silk-jacket frock will
be better than ever, and, in ad-
