Now that beer is legally on sale in
most states ILLEGALLY in North Da-
kota) the brewers are making an at
tack on the old theory that their
product makes people fat.
"Quite the contrary" say the pub
licity men for this revived and flour
ishing industry, contending that 1t
builds hemoglobin. or blood, and
makes people lean as we'll as fat.
This idea Is supported, so the pub
licity men say, by test on 10 girls
from the Radio City chorus in New
York city. who were given three bot
ties Of beer daily as q part of their
regular diet, for a period of 10 days.
One Of the 10 girls gained q quar-
ter pound in weight but this girl, 50
the physician employed for the test
asserted, was underweight at the be-
ginning OF the test and was still I'm.
derweight at its close.
Another girl, overweight at tho be-
ginning, lost eight and half pounds,
having discontinued q habit Of lunch
ing between meals during the course
Of the experiment.
Seven girls lost slightly in weight
and one remained unchanged.
Thus we have an old theory ex-
ploded, at least by allegation, in an
effort to induce the ladies to have
no fear of getting plump" from
drinking the new brew.
If, as the statement of this alleged
test contends, beer proves to have a
reducing effect, there never again
will be any kind of law barring it
from the market. Drink beer and
grow thin" would be too popular a
slogan among the female element.

part Of it.
The part she could tell him would
BE- merely that Mary Lou was not

ever his delusion on the subject,
that girl had never been his wife.
That the girl no longer, in 4 man

Mary Lou-did.

and feverishly, if, by an unfortu-

Reorganization Needed

An argument which may rage In
congress next year as the result Of
the Akron tragedy Is whether the
navy should continue its present pol
icy of sending its officers to sea
every three years, no matter what
their training OF special skill in other
lines.
Officers on naval airships, for ex-
ample, are periodically detached from
this duty and assigned to surface
vessels in order that they may con-
tinue to be sailors in the sense that
they are seagoing men. No differ
entiation Is made between sailors II
the air and those on the water.
The result Is to assign unSkilled
men, every 50 often. to the work Of
running these giants Of the sky, AZ
occupation which requires highly
specialized skill and experience.

Uniting Against Rackets
(Minneapolts Tribune)

# 1t were not a typical American

of another organization, once we, as
a people, become aroused about some
thing, the recently formed group that
is to conduct a nationwide drive
against rackets might be little more
impressive. In SO far as 1t centers
our attention, however, on an evil
that has too long been permitted to
go unchallenged, this drive may be
made to contribute something toward
stamping out form of crime that is
said to have had its greatest growth
under prohibition. This organization
has set as its first purpose that OF

The Shoeless South

Tremendous hullabalOo has been
raised below the Mason-Dixon line
by Secretary Perkins recent refer
enoe to the shoeless south. The dec
laration was made by the lady labor
chief during q discussion Of oppor-
tunities for the expansion OF mar
kets and tho phrase was coined
merely to indicate that tremendous
opportunity for expansion OF the
shoe industry exists In that section.
Despite the bitter denunciatlon
which came from southern news
papers, it Is only fair to say that
Miss Perkins was quite correct. The
sale Of shoes as well as Of most other
commodities is smaller per capita in
tho south than in most other Sec
tions because the purchasing power
there is less. A large Negro popula-
ton with certain proportion Of
'po' white trash" has held back both
industrial and commercial develop
mert.
It is equally true that the same
thing might easily be said of many
other sections Of the country. Any
area where the purchasing power is
abnormally low may easily be shoe
less, or badly in need Of shoes. Thus
the term "shoeless west" might
arouse resentment but 1t would, in a
sense, be true.
There are not enough shoes in this
or any other state unless every in
habitant has all the comfortable
shoes he can reasonably need. Right
now, children are going barefoot in
North Dakota so they may have shoes
for winter wear. If purchasing power
of the farmer Is restored, there will
be tremendous market here for
shoes as well as clothing and other
necessities.
The situation is well illustrated by
the story Of local physician.
He was talking with a farmer
friend and the conversation turned
to conditions"
It was agreed that things could
be much better and the question of
health and physical condition came
up. The doctor asked If the people
in his friends district were suffering
from malnutrition and the answer
was Illuminating.
"Oh, no. We farmers will have
plenty to eat even II you city folks
starve. The only trouble is that we
must get some money soon or we'll
have a lot Of fat farmers running
around naked"
The remark puts humorous touch
to the thing which has been said in
thousand different ways In recent
years. Under our modern organiza-
ton people must have purchasing
power else they soon will become
shoeless, hatless and even pantsless.
The south need not feel resentful
Here in the west we have admitted
for some time that things could be
much better than they are.
And we are thankful now that they
are improving.
