300 Miles an Hour

1t is being predicted that the speed
trials at the forthcoming National
Air Races will see new speed records
set for land planes. Last year mark
of 236 miles an hour was hung up;
planes being prepared for this years
races will hit full 30O-mile- an-hour
clip, according to advance indica-
tons.
When speeds of such breath-tak-
ing swiftness are reached. it is ap-
parent that quite as much depends
on the pilot as on the plane. Whirl-
ing along at clip like that is a ter
rifle strain on the man at the con-
trolls. The slightest defect in the
plane, the slightest bit of carelessness
or faulty judgment on the part of
the pilot, inevitably means Disaster
swift, final and unacceptable.
That planes can be built to travel
that fast is tribute to modern de-
signers. That men can be found to
fly them is tribute to the daring
and skill Of the aviators themselves.

THE INFLUENCE OF BALONEY

into spasn1S or coma before the meal

If occasionally one of these birds fall

quack waving his title of Doctor"

straggler back to his senselessnesS by
telling him his blood contains too
much acid.
Far be it from me to grapple with
any chemist over question of chem

Working 1t Out

One Of the questions which un-
doubtedly will come before the next
session of the North Dakota legisla-
ture will be that of substituting Ia
Dor for payment Of taxes.
1t is probable that system OF road
maintenance will be suggested where
by farmers living along a road, either
state or county, will take turns at
keeping it in condition, much after
the manner in which township roads
have been built and maintained at
certain times in the past.
If it should come to that, there
will be ample precedent for it, for
North Dakotans have had to get
along without money in the past and
to find some basis for exchanging
goods and labor without a cash trans
action.
Recently, when two veterans of the
commercial wars met in Bismarck,
they were heard to exchange remarks
about time in the not-so-long-ago
when each had a job but did not get
any money for months at time. A
man who was known to be good"
issued script and it was taken at face
value by merchants in exchange for
goods. Just what the merchant did
with it was not explained.
At the same time, according to this
overhead conversation, an elevator
lured business away from it's COMPETE
tors by paying S. in cash for every
load Of grain, the balance of the
amount due being represented by
elevator script. Where the crisp, new
five-dollar bills came from mystified
the competitors who could not get
any, so the story goes.
At the present time, the city Of
Syracuse, New York. has adopted q
plan OF working it out" to enable
home owners to keep their property
from being sold for taxes. If a man
has no job and cannot pay his taxes
he is put on the payroll at 81 day
until his debt to the city is dis
charged.
There are undoubted objections to
these systems but necessity is the
mother of invention in a financial
way as well as in other fields. 1t
will be surprising if the next legisla-
tive session is not called upon to dc
some inventing on rather a grand
scale for the benefit of North Dakota
farmers. And how these attempts
will work out will be a question OF
more than academic interest.

a home. The big man, with his
cowboys, forces the little fellow
away from the waterholes, overrides
the best of his range, tramples his
fields. What can the little fellow
do? The law-there's no law down

man against one of these well-en-
trenched lords of the land. Look

Freedom

Anyone can tell you that the aver
age American insists on having free
dom. It isn't always quite as easy
as it might be, though, to get good
definition OF just what freedom is
nowadays.
Professor Carl Becker OF Cornell
touched on that point in a recent adj
dress at Columbia university. Wax
ing slightly sarcastic, he remarked:
'The average man is free to govern
himself by voting for candidates Sc
lected for him by professional poll
ticians who make living out of the
spoils of office.
"He is free to take any job that
offers, if any offers. II none offers,
he is free to hunt for Job which, if
found, will pay him bare living
wage, or less. If none is found he is
free to stand in a bread line begging
O crust from charity or the govern
ment that makes him q free man."
All Of this simply emphasizes the
fact that freedom, In highly COM
pick civilization like the one in which
we are living now. can have an en-
tirely different meaning than it had
a century ago.
In the old days freedom for the
common man was rather easily OBJ
tanned. First of all. he was given the
ballot and it was thereby made GER
tain that he would always have a
voice about who should govern him;
and that, in an age when the divine
right Of kings was still unheld, meant
much. Secondly. the country was
large, unexpected, full of resources
that lacked only someone to develop
them; II things went badly with the
ordinary man at home he could easily
move on to some place where oppor-
tunlty WAS wider.

SYNOPSIS

Ted Radcliffe is called to Verdi, a
small village on the Mexican border
by Bob Hardness, his late fathers
friend. Radcliffe Senior had lost a
fortune in Mexico years before. At
4 party given by Major Blount of
the U. S. Army, Ted meets Pace
Morales, ruling power of Mexico,
and his beautiful niece, Adela. Mo-
rales tells how Ell Coyote, the mys-
ferrous bandit, killed man about to
reveal his hideaway. Ell Coyote
steals from the rich, particularly
Morales, and gives to the poor. Ma
jor Blount announces that the u. S.
cavalry will join in the search for
the bandit. A wounded Mexican,
believed to be one of Ell Coyotes
band, is captured. Ted is stunned
to learn his father died penniless.
Bob attributes the failure of Ted's
fathers Mexican irrigation project
to Morales, whose reign would have
ended with its success. Late that
night Bob goes out. Next morning
Major Blount reports that the
wounded Mexican has escaped. Bob
asks Ted to become his foreman.

talked once of piece OF land over
in Mexico that he either owned or
controlled. 1t had name, that land.

and all this morning, but I can't. Do
you know about it,"
Bob shook his head. 81 don't be-
lieve your father owned foot of
land in Mexico. Once he held thou
sands of acres in the form of govern
mental concessions, but these were
later taken from him. If he owned
any-which l Doubt would be
hard to find. There's no complete
record kept of land ownership across
the border, and it won't do to ask
too many questions. Still, isn't that
another reason why it'll be better
for you to take the job of head rider
for Don Bob? Now for the sordid
details: I'll start you with the mag
nihcent salary OF one hundred
month and keep. You can handle
horse and gun. I'll teach you to
handle men. In six months, if Tito
and Morales spare you, I'll have the
best foreman on the border"
