When congress meets there will be
q flood of bills to relieve economic
stress due to the business depression.
There are two camps. One believes
the states should care for their needy
while on the other hand Is a vigor-
Gus minority demanding federal re-
lief.
Governors of states and mayors Of
the great industrial cities who have
been canvassed are almost unali-
nous in their opinion that the states
and cities should care for their own
and that there should be nothing
that smacks of a federal dole.
The children's bureau of the fed
eral department of labor estimates
that Of unemployment relief raised
last year 70 per cent came from d.
rect taxation and only 2S per cent
from voluntary contribution.
It is better for each state to meet
its own peculiar problems Of relief
than to pass the Job up to Washing
ton. Experience has shown that such
Jobs are not handled very efficiently
In our national halls Of congress. Be-
fore adequate federal relief could be
set up. 1t would be too late to be ef-
fective for this winter. Every state
and its larger cities must dispense
the necessary relief and the plans
must be made immediately.

Sensible CENSORSHIP

An excellent way Of avoiding the
evils of censorship Of moving pictures
has been developed lately in various
parts of the country. It Is the sys-
tenn by which women's clubs. relig-
ious organizations, civic societies and
similar groups appoint representa-
tives to examine current films and
issue lists Of approved" pictures.
This system Is especially valuable
for the children. Many parents do
not have the time to find out for
themselves which pictures are proper
for their youngsters to see. In the
past they have relied-too largely
on official censorship to solve the
problem for them.
But censorship is repel!ent and
stupid solution. This new system IS
infinitely better. BY It, each group
can give its members the guidance
they want-and can do 1t without re-
stricting right of outsiders TO see pic
lures of a different type.

in moderate exercise. This does not
mean that every one ought to be an
out-of-door fanatic, marathon run
ner or hundred-mile walker. The
road to health does not lie In the
exceptional performance, but in a
simple routine Of average perform-
ance. Outdoor exercise should be
indulged In regularly, but not to tha
point Of fatigue, or irritating sun
burn, or of undue exposure. The in
door man succumbs easier to expo
sure than the one who is used to
spending considerable time in the
open.
The pleasures Of life may be di-
vided into indoor and outdoor sports,
the indoor life for mental relaxation,
the outdoor life for exercise and
physical health. A change Of occu-
patton or Of scene is Of value In pro-
noting longevity, but dissipation is
not recreation.
The trend Of modern life seems to
be toward speeding up to greater
mental strain and almost ceaselesa
activity. Today the business mans
panacea Is golf, but golf may be
merely q mental relaxation. Too
much attention to the 10th hole, and
six hours of dissipation after q heavy
dinner may undo all Of the good ef-
fects of the 18 holes of actual play
in the afternoon. The oldest aphor-
ism in personal hygiene is q plea fox
moderation in all things. A health
full life requires. Of course, play, rest
and sleep, but even these must be in
moderation.

There are all sorts Of baths for all
sorts Of purposes. A warm bath
cleanses the body. draws the blood
to the surface, increases perspira-
ton and has a Soothing effect. Bath
ing in very hot water is dangerous,
particularly to q weakened person.
Cold baths taken in the morning
stimulate the nerve endings III the
skin and drive the blood from the
surface, to which it returns with a
rush when the person comes out Of
the bath and rubs himself briskly
with q towel. The worst fanatic for
his friends Is the cold water bath

There was a time when the skin
was considered merely q covering for
the human body. Nowadays the
skin Is recognized as q mirror Of the
human body. A good skin. which
indicates q generally healthful con-
dition, is one that Is fairly firm, does
not sag, that is free from pimples,
and that does not scale away. In
the care Of the skin, ordinary bath

pioneered tn the Broadway outskirts

to get his name nationally identified

For instance: Just few months
back. I was in Schenectady and paid
a visit to the General Electric lab
oratories. Like all visitors, I was
taken to the famous "house of

A short movie subject was shown,
and In 1t was starred none other than
Earl Carroll. He had conferred for
weeks with the laboratory wizards
on trick lighting innovations he had
heard about. He had gone away
With every available gadget for his
new show house.
And this was the same fellow
whose name was dragged across front
pages in connection with q bath-tub
orgy and arrests for permitting ultra
nudity.
just few days ago a note came
to me from the Western Electric Of

adopted for the first time innova-
uons that promise to revolutionize

And there you have Carroll, the

One time I asked Carroll about the

his sad smile and said quietly:

In some such words Carroll is said
to have discouraged the investor.

Canning Wheat

Down in Battle Creek, Mich,
where SO many fine cereal foods are
made. the people are adopting new
method Of relieving the Ills Of un-
employment.
It is quite natural that Battle
Creek folks. when they face an emer-
gency. should turn to their kitchens.
The factory kitchens Of the town
have made it world famous.
The latest kitchen in this modern
community. according to q clipping
from Battle Greek newspaper, pre-
sented to The Tribune by one of its
subscribers. is . community affair.
The idea Is to can and preserve food
tor use this winter which might 9TH

distributed to those in need.
The system Is to employ both men
and women and to enlist the good
win Of the community. The men are
kept busy collecting donated fruits,
garden trucks and other items which
may be canned. Tho women are
kept busy with the canning proper
and all are paid in script"
The nature Of the script is not
made clear and the items which can
be purchased with it are not speci-
fled. but It is clear that this infor-
NAL kind Of money can be exchanged
for the food products Of the kitchen.
Thus the unemployed are given en-
poyment Of q nature which win at
least keep them from starving.

One suggestion which comes from

The Bismarck tribune., 1931-09-15
Here IS what the Battle Greek
Moon journal saws Of Il:

Here is what the Battle Cree
Moon Journal says Of It:
Solution of the wheat surplus
problem, sponsors of the project
believe, may be aided by canning
wheat in large quantities, by first
steam cooking the grain. In this
manner 1t Is made into q delect-
able cereal preparation, highly
nutritious.
"The local kitchen is furnished
with a steam cooker and 1t Is es-
timated that wheat may be can
ned at an expense of about three
cents quart.
1T was suggested today to Mr..
Clifford that canning Of wheat in
like manner, placed on a nation
al scale, might do much to relieve
the emergency for the farmers
and at the same time conserve
vast quantities of food that are
certain to be wasted.
Zone of the greatest benefits
seen in the new idea of relief is
that the children in poor fami-
lies may now have wholesome,
balanced diets to replace their
former unbalanced fare. Char
ity has thus far been In the form
Of grocery orders and these have,
In most cases, been used for
cheap foods that go farther In
PRODUCTION of fruits and vegeta-
bles into the diets of children will
prevent permanent injury be-
cause of improper diet"
If this idea is sound, the way to q
olution is presented for two prob
ems which have bothered the entire
lation. The first is that Of feeding
he hungry In this land of plenty
he second is that one way to elm
nate the wheat surplus problem is
y finding new uses for wheat.

Lock Up the Corn Cribs

Close upon the heels Of the re-
ported success of the Oklahoma and
Texas shut-downs In the oil fields,
comes the report that Iowa farmers
seriously are considering locking up
their corn cribs and sitting down to
wait for higher prices.
That is the suggestion which has
been made to Governor Dan Turner
and the Hawkeye executive is re-
ported to be seriously considering
the idea, the plan being to use the
state warehousing law as q basis for
loans to the corn farmers while they
are waiting for higher prices.
If such degree Of cooperation as
Is necessary to make this scheme
effective can be obtained in Iowa. it
will demonstrate that present busi-
ness conditions have not been in
vain. II it takes the times like these
to make people willing to help each
other in the manner outlined they
will have been q benefit, provided the
idea and atmosphere can be carried
over into q better era. The Iowa ex-
pertinent, II 1t Is attempted, will be
watched with more interest, here in
North Dakota, than will be the mo
cotton-in-1932" plan of Governor
Long Of louisiana, now under con-
sideration in several southern states.
The corn problem is a good deal
closer to our own considerations than
Is the cotton problem.
But as one considers these numer-
Gus panaceas, all Of them designed
to relieve the market Of its surplus
OF leading commodities, one cannot
help but chuckle at the prospect of
what would happen II the plans were
to work out as their sponsors dream.
Millions OF bushels Of corn have
been sold short" on the leading ex-
changes just as untold bales Of COT
ton and millions Of bushels Of wheat
have been sold short.
What blow agriculture could deal
to its pet enemy, the big-city specu-
lator, just by locking the doors Of its
wheat bins, its corn cribs and its cot
ton warehouses.
