A Minister Speaks Up
Duluth Herald)

0uA0G Gle lOJ
The clumsy efforts of some military men to keep mill
tary training q permanent feature of state university
courses by trying to intimidate those who oppose the
system was again illustrated in Nebraska the other day.
Colonel Curry, who commands the cadets in the state
university there. publicly charged a number Of American
peace and church organizations with opposing compul-
ARE all operating under the direct influence Of the
Soviet government at Moscow"
Among the organizations named was the Federated
Council Of Churches Of Christ. A Lincoln minister, who
said he had represented his church in that federation
for nine years, neatly spiked the loose-tongued colonel
with 4 spirited answer.
I'VE are urging disarmament and peace" he said,
because we are under the influence Of Jesus Of Nazareth
and not under the influence Of the Soviet government OF
Russia. II Colonel Curry is as unreliable in military
science as he Is in his views Of the affairs Of the church,
the country would be in unsafe hands under him"
Military drill and discipline for young men has its ad-
vantages, but 1t should be optional and not compulsory.
And 1t Is extremists like this officer, who resort to abuse
and misrepresentation Of those who disagree with them,
who will yet make it 50 In every state institution in this
country.

They Still Fall in Love

A writer In the March issue of Harpers Magazine COM
plains that romantic love has lost its power over the
imagination Of the race. Young lovers don't 60 in for
poetry much nowadays. Magazines find in love a topic
for cynical humor. The wise crack has replaced the
time honored sonnet. Love is no longer considered
sacred, and the ancient belief that the world can be we'll
lost for love finds few adherents.
All Of this, II true, is rather unfortunate; for while
romantic love occasionally brings a good deal Of suffer-
ing to those whom it possesses, It has added greatly to
the worlds store Of beauty and loneliness. and we should
have a hard time finding a substitute. But surface In
dications can be very misleading, and one Is entitled to
doubt that people today are much different than their
grandparents under the skin.

these days. There is also q great deal OF analysis and

The Right to Withdraw
(Eargo Forum


In connection with consideration Of the proposed
withdrawal Of the petitions that call for q vote on the
removal Of the state capitol from Bismarck to James
town, it is well to keep in mind the power that is lodged
in the COMMITTEE for the petitioners" upon whom the
decision will rest.
Petitions initiating the amendment to the constitution
changing the seat Of government include q paragraph
under which the signers delegate to this committee the
authority to act for them in all matters. The personnel
of the committee is set up in the petitions.
This is a procedure provided for under the initiative
and referendum section OF the constitution, and It Is
intended to fix responsibility in a few. The committee"
for instance, files the petitions; it defends court actions,
should any be brought against the validity of petitions;
likewise, it has the power to withdraw the petitions
should it so decide.
In other words, the committee acts in all matters for
the petitioners. to whom the latter have delegated power
and authority.
Thus it becomes possible today for the committee to
withdraw the petitions should it so desire. and as this
newspaper has previously stated, the conditions which
have developed with relation to the whole question would
seem to dictate that as the wise course.
In some quarters there is confusion as to the status
of capitol legislation and capitol removal.
So far as the legislation for rebuilding the capitol is
concerned, it has been passed by the legislature. and will
not 90 to q vote Of the people unless referendum petitions
are circulated and filed against the bill q 1t was enacted
by the assembly.
The vote on removal still ponds, however, as an issue
before the people. It Is set up In q separate move
ment, the vote ordered by the filing Of necessary petit
lions With the secretary T, E OF stase; . 30 long g.. As t tns PEI
sity Of holding an election, and because Of the ramifica-
tons Of capitol rebuilding, it is almost mandatory that
we call e Spec1al elcCtlOu. 1naC WOulQ cost Lu6 6td6
and the counties upwards Of 100000, let alone the other
costs incident to the election, the delay in getting our
capitol rebuilding job under way, etc.
In this instance, q well Is in others, we zee exponents
Of q certain issue cite the number Of signers to Z petition
as indicating q "wideSprsad demand"
The history Of petition signing IS too well known 70
substantiAte that view, and the experiences Of Thousands
who Agnsd the removal petitions are no different from
those Of signers to other classes Of petitions. Many OF
them signed to accommodate" . friend, others to get
rid" OF q petition c~irculator, others with no thought as
to the consequence and no idea Of the effect such petit
tions would have upon the affairs of the state.
That = . point which the committee for the petition
es should keep In mind a. It studies the advisability Of
cor1codins to the recognised statewide hope that we be
not obliged to hold = special election on removal.

ing once started, the crystals may
grow either along their central axis,
giving rise to long thin prisms, or
along their six axes to form hex
agonal plates. Sometimes the growth
is uniform, but at others the growth
along the, axes is more rapid than in
the space between: this gives rise to
star-shaped crystals. In cold regions,
the crystals are small, because there
Is little water vapOr present from

ing point they grow to their largest
size. When the air is full of large
crystals collisions may take place, so
that they become interlocked.
