OAKLAND PONTIAC
LINES EQUIPPED
TO RIDE EASILY

Mark M. Connolly, w-.o mas peen
appointed Oakland-Pontiac dealer
in Imperial Valley. says an inn
portant development on both cars
is found in the use of an insula-
ton material of permanently resil-
lent rubber compound at more than
10 separate points, to increase rid
ing comfort and to establish null
tiple barriers against the ttele-
graphing" of road shocks or sounds
of engine and chassis operation.
Among these insulation points
are the II rubber shackle busfings
on each car, 10 fabric-reinforced
rubber mountings insulating the
frame from the body, the rubber
engine montings, rubber transmits
sion drive hubs and large rubber
pads which prevent metal-to-metal
contact between rear springs and
rear axles. Even the cross-flow
radiators ride on rubber pads and
/ the Joints of the hydraulic shock
absorber links are silenced by rub
ber. Furthermore, the five wire
wheels, standard equipment on all
models, are equipped with wider
type of modified drop-base rim
which enable the tires to carry from
II to l3 per cent more air without
| increasing tire size.
Oakland's outstanding mechani-
cal improvement is found in the
new Syncro- Mesh transmission
| which, combined with the 35 horse
power of the improved V-type en-
CINE, provides quiet second gear
acceleration up to 40 to AS miles
per hour. Shifting is exceptionally
silent and easy, it being possible 10
change from intermediate to nigh
or from high to intermediate at
practically any speed This feature
encourages the use OF intermediate
gear for rapid hill-elimbing or for
employing the braking power of en-
CINE compression ON sharp down
grades. The compression" method
Of braking is recommended parti-
cularly on slippery roads where the
danger of skidding is reduced by
keeping the car in gear, thus equal
izing the braking effect of the real
wheels. Oakland's wheelbase is III

Government by Commissions


President Hoover has had an abiding faith in COM
missions. His administration believed in deputizng
many functions of the executive department to the best
minds of the nation. Few presidents have equaled and
probably none exceeded the number of commissions
named by President Hoover. College presidents have
been enlisted from one. end of the nation to the other to
apply their academic minds and skill to the perplexing
problems Of government.
In most instances, the efforts of the Hoover commits
sions have resembed the labor of the mountain which
brought forth the proverbial mouse. The faith OF Hoover
in commissions, even though composed of the best
minds, probably is shaken as he reviews the Wickersham
report.
One item OF some Importance in the Wickers,am ef-
fort is that it reflects, in some of its parts, a trend to-
ward modification.
1t is a straw which points. rather feebly to be true, the
direction in which the wind blows. Political expediency
also dictated to some extent the recommendations and
unless there is a complete reversal of policy President
Hoover intends to take the dry end of the liquor issue
in the 1882 campaign. To many on his commission, VOL
steadism is still a noble experiment and needs a longer
trial. The vigorous modificationists and those who favor
absolute repeal were in a decided minority on the COM
mission. The majority was composed of those favoring
strict enforcement and those who advocate mild modifi-
cation. Outside OF some interesting and expensive data
collected for congressional information, President Hoo
yer Is no closer to a solution and the responsibility. as
always, rests on congress.

Mr.. Fish's Program

Mr.. Hamilton Fish seems to be thoroughly alarmed
about the extent Of the Communists menace in this coun-
try. His committee report is the sort Of thing that would
have created a sensation 10 years ago; and if the coun-
try only yawns at it now, that is simply MIR. Fishs
hard luck. He was born a little bit too late.
The program which he suggests that this country fol-
low in dealing with the Communists seems to fall into
the same category. It is out of date, by rather more
than 10 years. It calls for swift and ruthless suppress
sion: and someone ought to point out to MI. Fish that
that has been tried before, with indifferent success.
1t was tried, in fact, in Russia, for many years. The
Russian program, indeed, was even more rigorous than
the one MI. Fish advances. If suppression could pos
sibly save a nation from radicalism, Russia would have
been saved. But somehow it didn't work. It provided
Just the kind of soil on which communism thrives. That
is a point worth keeping in mind.

The Twin Cities-Seattle AirWay

NN1AulcdpOlLS tribune
Those cities which would have benefited by the estab-
lshment Of air mail service between the Twin Cities and
Seattle indicated little active interest in the passage of
the bill before congress carrying the appropriation for it.
Perhaps that is one reason why the appropriation has
been stricken from the current postoffice appropriation
bill.
Senator Phipps. of the conference committee which
took this action. gives assurance that the bill will carry
an appropriation for a survey OF the proposed route. To
this end there Is yet no official action. With no more
interest than is now being manifested even this adj
vantage may be lost. The situation is one which should
command the interest Of every city in the northwest. A
survey promised IS not a survey made. The issue should
be pressed. II It is not pressed there is good reason to
believe that 1t may be entirely lost sight Of in the present
session Of congress and that q project Of much i'm
~portance to the northwest will again be needlessly de-
layed.
The feasibility Of the route has been established. The
advantages it would bring are evident. These remain
only to be confirmed by the proposed survey.
As important an air mail link as any remaining, to
be established in the country s. that between the Twin
Cities and Seattle. It's beneficiarieS will be the principal
cities IN the states Of Minnesota. North Dakota, Mon
tana, Idaho, eastern and central Washington. Their
efforts In support Of the appropriation for 4 survey may
we'll be coordinated al this time to prevent further de-
lays In getting under way an air mail project In which
the entire northwest country has . very definite stake.

The New Capitol
(Beach Advance)

Wnlle the destruction OF the state capitol building and
consequent loss OF many valuable records is to be de-
plored, the lire was not without it's benefits. It was a
moral certainty that in a very few years a new building
would have had to be built and the cost of tearing down
the od snack would have fallen upon the state. AS it
Is, the insurance companies will contribute a large sum
toward the new building. SO in a way the state is a gamer.
VI course there Is much talk of what the new ,struc-
ture Is to be like, the suggestions ranging from an ornate
ture OF more or less imposing appearance. AS to these
views we incline to the business building idea, housing all
tne states activities under one root. The modern bust
ness structure is not necessarily a homely one. but on
the contrary the late steel and stone buildings are
very handsome, absolutely ~fireproof and best adapted
ior off1ces and such other rooms as legislative cham
bers, governors offices. supreme court chamber, etc.
Cost could thus be conserved and the needs of the state
adequately provided for.
A capitol building surrounded by a number of office
buildings, in the style of the college buildings is fine, but
1t adds enormously to the cost and is no better suited,
II as well, to the need of bringing the commemorative
activities into close proximity to- each other. We hope
the idea OF a business building will prevail.

DRESSING THE MIND:

We choose our clothes mainly for
! decorative purposes and not so mucn
for protection against the elements:
Perhaps we waste a great deal OF
energy, and certainly spend larger
sums of money than necessary in Sc
Letting our clothes from the orna-
mental rather than the practical
| standpoint. Do we not also dress our
minds in much the same manner?
Our educators attempt to develop
a child's mind in such a way that as
the child studies the routine school
subjects his mind will be convention
ally decorated with mental frills and
laces which will be of little or no
value to him throughout his life.
How much real good does the aver
age growing child receive from so
many hours spent in the study of
dead languages and higher mathe-
mates? The professors who teach
such subjects can Of course not be
expected to advocate the substitution
of more practical subjects which they
themselves are not trained to teach.
The argument is often made that the
study Of languages and higher ma
thematics is necessary to train the
mind, but no good reason has ever
been given why the memory and In
t~ellectual faculties can not be I'M
proved by the study of certain sub
Jects which will have a more practi-
cal. everyday value.
If.the school years are not extend
ed, would it not be better to Substi-
tute such studies as physiology, food
science, chemistry, biology, sex science
and the science of raising children,
for some of the years spent in the
study Of mathematics, dead languages,
mythology, history, ETC.?
Can we not find time to teach the
child how to live?
We know that most of u actions
are determined by III desires, emo
tions, and feelings. Everyone admits
that self representation is the first law
of nature, and yet your child who
graduates from college this year may
be able to tell you all about the my
thical Apollo, or recite the orations of
Cicero, but does he know such a sim
pie thing as how food is digested in
the body or how the blood ~circulates?
He may be able to do intricate pro-
blems in trigonontetry, but can he
sit down to your table and show you
which foods combine tremendously
and which make bad combinations?
He may be able to tell you the love
story Of Helen Of Troy, but does he
know a single sensible thing about
his own emotional nature, his future
sex life, marriage relations, or the
propagation of offspring and the rails
ing of children?
All education is useful, but I can
not keep from pointing out to par

A Capitol Fight?
(La Mo,,re Chronic,e,

LA Moure Chronicle)
It wasn't long after the last embers from our former
state capitol building were beginning to cool that various
cities in the state began to grid themselves for a struggle
70 get the capitol. jamestown seems to be the first and
most strongly organized home town booster, with rumors
floating about that several others are planning to join
the fray.
IN spite OF the fact that Jamestowns arguments in
favor of changing the site of the state capitol seem both
logical and good. there still remains the fact that North
Dakota has over a million dollars invested in real
estate IN Bismarck. In view of the fact that as a state
we are hardly affluent, it would seem a bit careless to
casually toss away such an awe-inspiring sum
Besides the financial aspect of the question, the senti-
mental one remains strong. All the old associations of
our history cling about Bismarck, even after the old
capitol is gone.
Little enthusiasm for a change seems to have sprung
up yet, and it appears likely that the jamestown en-
thusiasts are doomed to disappointment.
