us farther, perhaps, away from the
philosophy Of rugged individualism
than any other thing that has hap
pened to us.
The business executive is answer
able, first of all, to his stockholders.
Their money is in his keeping; it's up
to him to give them return on it,
and II he fails they quite properly
will remove him. He is answerable,
too. in a less direct way, to his en-
ployes. To be sure, they can't get
at him II he fails them. But their
jobs, their bread and butter, their
chances to do something with their
lives, rest entirely on him.
TO these allied responsibilities we
are now seeing the necessity of add
ing third-responsibility to the pub
lie at large.
What the industrial executive does
affects the whole country, sooner or
later. We are in his hands, and II
he is fumbling incompetent we are
apt to get dropped. Is 1t, after all, so
far-fetched to suggest that we ought
to be able to exercise some control
over him?
The incompetent business man is
just as much parasite on society as
the incompetent politician. and So
ciety ought to have the power to dis
pose Of him. It would have been the
height of radicalism to say that a
year or so ago; today it is nothing
but plain common sense.

Quality Requires Advertising
Duluth Herald)

Experienced advertising men look
for increased business in their line as
a result Of the activities of the adj
ministration under the national In
dustrial recovery law.
Some manufacturers recently have
been putting all their efforts on
cheapening quality and reducing
prices. The codes of fair practice
which are to govern business in the
future, it Is understood, are to forbid
less-than-cost leaders" They are
to include minimum wage scales.
Practically. they will set prices.
The emphasis in selling hereafter
will be on quality, service. appearance
and variety, which must be adver-
tised.
So the advertising men are looking
for boom in their field something
like that which resulted from the
excess profits tax. That will be good
news to newspapers and other pub
locations, which, under the industrial
recovery act, are left to take care OF
themselves without government aid.

FOUR POUNDS OF LIVER

A reader requests an article about
the liver and its functions. He Graves
to know whether a person can live
without liver.
Liver? Oh, yes, yes, I remember
now. It's that large gland in the
northwestern abdomen. About a
pound for every SO pounds of body
weight. AS for living without 1t, do
not advise you to try. Why inter-
fere with these things as long as they
don't bother US?
In the old days when the charla-
tans devoted considerable attention
to the livers of gullible folk the lat
ter suffered proportionately with bad
livers. Nowadays it Is difficult to
get even a moron anxious about the
state of his liver, and the quondam
nimble little liver pill Is recalled only
when the customer hasn't the price
of the article which some European
clinic clerk, all decked out in his
BARRIERS coat, recommends to the
peasants who patronize the Tree
clinic.
Incidentally, where do people get
the morbid suggestions that make
them sick? Not from anatomy, ply
siology or hygiene. They get their
harmful impressions or misinforma-
ton from devling In symptomatol-
ogy, pathology, bacteriology, etiology,
diagnosis and therapeutics, the kind
taught by charlatans, nostrum mong-
ers, fad healers, and mail order hum
bugs.
The liver is the largest gland In
the body, having both external and
internal secretions. In a newborn
infant the liver weighs one-eighteen-
tn of the body weight. In an adult
-thirty-sixth Of the body weight.
The external secretion, the bile, IS
produced in the cells which make up
the structure of the liver, and it seepi
in channels between cells (capillaries)
into the small branches of the bile
ducts or tubes which convey it, as
through twigs Of the branches Of a
tree into the two large ducts, on
from either lobe, which finally unite
to form the main hepatic duct. This
is joined l ID inches along by the
cyclic duct coming from the gall
bladder, and the bile flows on
through the common gall duct for
another three inches to empty into
the duodenum or upper end of the
small intestine three inches beyond
the lower outlet of the stomach.
Remember that the gall-sac is a
blind pouch resembling and acting
like a perfume spray bulb. It holds
tablespoonful or two Of bile, which
it squirts into the duodenum after
certain foods or medicines are swal-
lowed-especially fats and strong
EPSON salts or other salt solutions.
Remember, this is only a reflex con-
traction Of the gall bladder, not an
increased secretion of bile. The gall
bladder lies under the edge of the
right lobe Of the liver in the vicinity
of Boise, but if it hurts you at all
you are quite certain to feel it In

that hurts, you feel it first in Lin

ology, I find 1t will be necessary to
conduct you a bit farther into the
anatomy of the subject. with particu-

No Cause to Worry

fortunes nave Deen mace ana lOSL
these last few days as the grain and
stock markets have run riot, first
leaping upward with unprecedented
speed and then tumbling down like
a roaring landslide.
Many individuals in this part of
the country were caught In the col
lapse OF the wheat market, seeing
profits wiped out at one fell swoop
after having already planned what
to do with their money. Not so many
have a headache as a result Of the
stock market gyrations. but there are
some OF those, too.
The really important question,
however, has nothing to do with the
effect on those who gambled their
money and either won or lost. 1t has
to do with the men and women who
are the producers of the wealth in
which we have seen such wild specu-
lation these last few weeks.
The farmer, who has seen wheat
at Bismarck drop from $l03 on Mon
day to "a cents on Thursday, cannot
be blamed for getting worried. He
has not been Spectator and reaped
no profits on the way up and now,
within y few weeks of time to sell
his scant crop, the bottom falls out
of the market.
The outlook is truly discouraging
unless one looks beyond the imme-
date fact to the causes for the great
boom market and the subsequent
shattering Of the price fabric. When
one understands that supply and de-
mand had very little to do with the
rise he can hardly blame basic con-
ditions for the fall.
It has been apparent all along that
speculative buying by the public.
mostly on a margin basis, has been
responsible for the sharp rise in prices.
For some reason or other a mania
seized many persons and they all took
filters" in the market at the same
time. AS a result some made profits
and some. particularly those who fol-
lowed like sheep as the sun Of ap-
parent easy money came into full
view, got sheared.
The basic conditions which should
make wheat more valuable are un-
changed. We have a short crop in
this country and a good deal Of the
surplus will be worked off within the
next year. After this shake-down
the trend will again be upward be-
cause the value is there. Men must
eat and bread still IS the staff of life.
It is to be expected and devoutly
hoped that any new gains will not
be as rapid as those which preceded
the crash and that the underlying
causes will be different. The farmer
will benefit most when prices rise
because Of the tangible value Of the
product rather than by reason Of the
publics speculative reaction to
given set of conditions.
There Is consolation in knowing
that the public has been taught a
new lesson at a good time. 1t will
hardly fool itself again quickly or SO
badly as it has this time. The next
time wheat reaches 81 O3 in Bismarck
It probably will stay there or go still
higher.
Meantime the current price COM
pares very fayorably with that quoted
q year ago and there still remain to
be collected the acreage reduction
benefits to be paid by the govern
ment.

Corrective Measure

IN view OF the complete failure of
the charges against three Burleigh
county commissioners and the cir
cumstances surrounding the bringing
Of the action to remove them, it
might be good thing for Governor
LANCER to apply little law to the
situation and save Burleigh county
the cost of this extravaganza in DO
co-economics.
Section 693 of the state political
code reads as follows:
When charges are preferred
against any of the officers men,
toned in this act by qualified
voters other than the states at
torney or attorney general, as
provided in section 686, and upon
such hearing it shall appear that
such charges were not preferred
IN good faith, then all of the
costs of the proceedings under
this act, not exceeding the sum
of three hundred dollars, may in
the discretion of the governor be
taxed to the persons making such
charges, and where such charges
are made by such REALTORS there
shall be filed, together with such
charges, good and sufficient
indemnity bond in the sum of
$500, to be approved by the gov
ernor, binding such REALTORS to
the payment OF such costs upon
failure to maintain such charges
are herein provided"
In the Burleigh county case no
bond was required, the law being ig-
nored to that extent, but the governor
still has opportunity to express his
disapproval of such actions in a direct
and definite way.
II he were to make such assess
n1ent 1t would serve notice upon all
who seek to make the executive power
a tool for their personal interests
that this practice is liable to prove
costly.

AGAINST WAR

THERE really isn't anything patriotic about
- war. Oh. of course, the bands are nice.
and lots Of men are better looking in khaki
than in gray tweeds with dark blue and white
polka dot ties.
It is true, too. that hearts like to march
along to martial music That people step high
err That minds become exalted because the
flags that float so proudly in the parade are
going to be protected by wholesale massacre.
There is something about a troop train
pulling out in the rainy darkness, while the
crowds cheer, that leaves a heart strangely
torn in two which may be good for hearts once
but in a while.
When Mrs Franklin D. Roosevelt the other
day made the assertion before a group of edu-
Gators. that an educational campaign should
be conducted against war. she was speaking
most wisely. When she appealed for the cult
walton Of a state of mind. in the young, which
would look to settle difficulties by some means
other than tear gas and bombs. she was voc-
ing the sentiment that women have held ever
since the first Spartan mothers gave their sons
their swords and cheered them as they ran TO
battle.
Child psychologists may say that children
should not view the sordid Official pictures
of battle scenes which are shown so often in
the cinema But it may be that these very
scenes will develop a hatred for war in the
hearts of the watching children.
When one interest is taken away from
person it must be replaced by another. Other
interests which appeal more than firing
squads and machine guns, must replace war
themes. There is plenty of humanitarian work
