about the baseless charges that have
been flung about the state the last
few days to the effect that Fargo bus
mess interests are seeking destruction
Of the University OF North Dakota,
while trying to build up the Agricul-
tural college at the expense Of the
former institution. Is the fact that so
many people will accept as gospel
any such suggestion.
Clearly, there Is no foundation for
any such absurd charge. and 1t IS in
conceivable that men in responsible
places In the University of North Da-
kota would permit themselves to be
SO far carried away with enthusiasm
for their cause, or disgust at the pros
pect Of general curtailment through
budget contractions. as to lend their
names to any such view as that one
which involves the maintenance Of q
paid lobby at Bismarck to support q
certain legislative resolution deemed
inimical to the interests Of the uni
versity.
Fargo has an interest and q stake
In the North Dakota Agricultural col
lege, but 1t is not selfish interest
that would seek advancement at the
expense Of some other institution, or
some other community.
There Is one fundamental PROPOSE
ton that the communities Of Grand
Forks and Fargo must recognize, and
that Is the earnestness Of the de-
mand that is being voiced for the
elimination OF unnecessary duplica-
ton Of courses Of study in the two
institutions. It IS q demand that
cannot be ignored. Now. elimination
Of duplication Is going to hurt-you
cannot contract q show such as we
have been carrying on without hurt
ing somebody's pride, somebody's pet
project. But that doesn't mean that
the status Of the two institutions, as
q whole, will be one bit impaired.
As matters stand, sentiment in the
legislature runs strongly In the direc-
ton Of elimination wherever possible.
It Is demand that the heads and
the staffs Of the two institutions, as
well Is the other educational institu-
lions, cannot ignore, for there'n be
another legislature along two years
from now, ana 1t Is going to want to
know just what has been done to
meet the situation.
In this whole matter, then. Grand
Forks and Fargo have Q common In
terest. They can work together, their
community leaders can cooperate
with the institutional STATS advan-
teeeously to each institution and to
the advantage Of the state @ . whole.
But We get away to . bad start when

A Settling Tank

The Bank Holidays which have been
declared In several states may be
compared with the settling tanks
which restore the turbulent Missouri
river water to calm in the local wa
terworks and allow the sediment and
sand to sink to the bottom.
In each case they have been or
dered to cope with a situation which
is q much psychological as it is fl
nancial. People with money are no.
toriously scary. The more they have
the more cautious they become until.
in time, the possession Of money be-
comes handicap to happiness, rather
than an asset. Those who have la
bored to put something by for a rainy
day are chary Of anything which
might make it disappear and 50. at
the slightest and most baseless ru-
NOR, they run to take their money
out Of the bank. The fever spreads
and soon a perfectly solvent bank
may be facing difficulty.

Not a Miss

Not a Miss
Most Of US are in the habit Of re-
garding any woman who refers to her
self as Miss" as unmarried. It was
so in the case of Frances Perkins, the
first woman member OF q presidents
cabinet and so our feelings are some
what mixed when we learn that the
name isn't Perkins at all but Wilson
and that there is q husband in the
background.
The error, OF course, IS ours. Where
the Lucy stoner movement gained adj
herents . generation ago, 1t IS now
the common thing for married women
in business, professional and public
life to retain their maiden names.
We expect 1t Of actresses, Of course.
because the practice OF having stage
names Is Of long standing, but In the
case Of Miss" Perkins it was little
startling to many.
Looking at the woman and her
work, without going into her personal
or family background, 1t was easy to
think Of her as one really interested In
the woes Of disorganized social order
who brought such ability to its prob
lens that she won recognition. There
was something appealing in the
thought Of q highly intelligent spin
ster giving her life in the pursuit of
social justice for her fellow men much
as savonarola called his neighbors of
old to repent and mend their ways.
But the shock of learning about
that husband and daughter was not
wholly unpleasant. With q few
strokes Of the brush we can etch them
into the background Of q very active
career and one into which we can
inject the element Of motherly solicit
tude, not only for her own but for
all Of those who come into contact
with the labor department.
But the proposition offers its diff
culties at that. Think how the hos
tesses Of Washington are going to be
puzzled, for II miss Perkins Is the
first woman cabinet member. Mr.. VIII
son Is the first cabinet members hus-
band.
His wife Is pioneer In her own
right but Mr.. Perkins Wilson has had
pioneership thrust upon him. And a
lot Of men who fancy their bigness
and strength will wonder how he feels
about It: how they would feel II In
his position?

pride of possession in this instance Is
a worthy one. Persons who have lived
in Europe have this feeling to q greater
extent perhaps than others, as they
have witnessed the great love Of dainty,
painstaking handwork that Is inbred in
the peoples of every country on the
continent. Even the humblest peasant
girl is probably better supplied with
household linens long before she is of
snarriageable age than the average
American girl on her wedding day.
And these same peasant girls are
willing to take the time to make the
finest stitches on the most beautiful

work, and as result. American
1uxuries at a price less than it

the gayety and brilliant colors Of
the Czechoslovakian and Russian

characteristic type.

so much that We will have to somewhat
