Treasury Figures
New York Tines

With one month remaining of the
current fiscal year, the federal def
cit for 1928 stood at 1854 ,000, 900
on May 81. This figure makes a dis
tinctly favorable showing when COM
pared with a deficit of $685., 900 900
for the corresponding period year
ago. The reduction amounts almost
precisely to $1,0O0,000,000. But so
much Of the governments expenditure
now lies outside Of the regular bud
get, taking the form of loans advance
ed to private enterprise by such an
agency as the Reconstruction FL
nance Corporation, that comparison
of federal Indebtedness is also pertin-
ent. During the first eleven months
OF 1892 the national debt increased
by $2,236, 100000. During the CORE
spending period of the present year
1t has increased by $2,366, 600, 900.
There has been no let-up in the gov
ernments borrowing, despite the more
favorable showing made by the bud
get figures. The total debt now
stands at $2l 1853 100000. This is the
highest figure reached since 1923,
though it is still about fifth below
the postwar peak of 26,597, O00, 900 on
Aug. 81, 1919.
During the new fiscal year, which
will begin next month, there is rea-
son to believe that the deficit within
the budget" will be still further mar
rowed. Revenues, to be sure, are still
disappointing. For reasons which are
now clear even to those members Of
congress who have had blind faith in
the ability of the income tax to pro-
vide dependable yield during a per-
iod Of depression. receipts from this
important source have been declining.
With respect to customs receipts, any
marked improvement must apparent
ly wait upon a revision of tariffs. The
new tax on beer has helped to in
crease miscellaneous receipts, but is
a relatively unimportant item COM
pared with the larger revenue which
would be made available by repeal Of
the Eighteenth Amendment. On the
side Of expenditures, however, large
economies are In prospect. Even il
the increases made by the senate in
the outlay for veterans relief should
be upheld in the house and approved
| by the president, about $500 900 ,O0C
would still be saved next year In the
largest single spending agency Of the
government. Salary reductions are
expected to save an additional $685..
100000. With such further econo.
mics as may prove to be POLITICAL,
practicable, the regular budget seems
likely to be brought more closely ints
balance than in any fiscal year since
1929-30.

EGGS, MEAT AND NUTS

Eggs, meat and nuts are all nitro
genous foods, that is they contain
considerable proportions of albumin
GUS or protein nutriment. Yet some
how they are incompatible. Almost
invariably nuts are opposed to the
eating of eggs and meat as freely as
one might wish. The nuts seem to
divine by intuition, certainly not by
physiology, that meat or eggs are very
bad for you when they are good and
downright poisonous when the are
better. Every nut who goes into the
healing or diet racket or the health
food business bases his appeal to the
customer on the theory that meat
and eggs cause autointoxication, and
every graduate of high school or COL
lege may be confidently expected to
develop autointoxication when he has
read two or three of the announce
ments.
From administration it is an easy
flight to hardening of the arteries, or
at least high blood pressure, compli-
Gated with rheumatism, neuritis and
chronic copremia. Thus while regular
physicians stand by and wait, the diet
and health nut mails his stuff and
gets the trade.
The last remaining prop was
knocked from under this fancy that
meat and eggs are bad for you by the
actual test Of the matter by the ex-
plorers Stefansson and Anderson
They subsisted for year exclusively
on meat, under constant study and
observation by Psychologists, chemists.
nutrition experts, ETC., and they fin
ished in all around better condition
than they had been in at the start.
No mean task, living on nothing but
meat. Try it for "a hours sometime l.
you doubt 1t. If had to do without
one food material I'd prefer to do
without meat. My notion of hard
life would be a diet containing no
carbohydrates.
The Detachable Carbohydrates
In most cases of overeating the
culprits gorge, not on meat, but on
carbohydrates, that Is, starches and
sugars. Bread, rolls, rolls NIT leedle
poppy seeds or other seeds, any other
seeds but caraway seeds in 'em, crack
ers, cakes, candy, flapjacks and syrup
honey, ice cream, brown sugar, molas-
ses, genuine French fry taters (NO1
the travesty you get IN most restau-
rants)-these are so easy to take II
excess. easy to buy, easy to prepare
easy to nibble by way Of pastime o.
as a social pleasure.
Since it Is the delectable carbo

overindulge in, would suggest tina
here is the place to make any restric
tons in diet one may be disposed t,

trouble may be-high blood pressure

Normal persons derive four fifths o
their energy from carbohydrate mate

Cause to Wonder

Mary LOUIS battered trunk,
suitcase and box arrived safely at
"Westwood House" forwarded by
the faithful Larry, from whom she
received . lengthy and wild letter,
typed on yellow copy paper. de-
handing, cabling, warning and
pleading. Did she realize what she
was getting into? demanded Larry,
frantically. Would she never grow
up? Of all the crazy, mad, insane
and incredible schemes! However,
count on him to stand by her, and,
if necessary, to get her out Of this
mess into which, idiotically, she
appeared to have gotten herself.
For himself, he could not believe
a word of her explanation-that
is, not with q sane and intelligent
mind. And when could he come
out and see for himself just what
sort of monkey-business this ap-
peared to be?
But Mary Lou wasn't quite
ready to face Larry yet. She wrote
soothingly, promising to keep in
touch with him. She wrote, also,
to her uncle and Clara. It would
be many weeks before the letters
would reach them and months be-
fore she would have their answer.
She realized, setting down the
facts in careful pothooks, on
"Westwood" paper, that it would
all seem as unreal as a dream to
the Sandersons. Well, it seemed
unreal to her, she thought.
Yet her role was not hard to
play, she found, as the days slip
ped by and gray snow clouds be-
gan to veil the horizon and there
was q breath Of winter, frosty and
menacing, in the air. For Lori

gone out to look for her and had
found her at the kennels had

the hideous doubts which had con-

as he could manage, what had hap

presence Of the pup, managed, in
her turn, to answer, her face

Friend Maker

Announcement that Bismarck
Drum and Bugle Corps will make a
trip to Garrison this week, stopping
at numerous towns en- route to give
concerts, emphasizes anew the splen-
did service which this organization
renders the capital city.
For want Of q more accurate term,
these trips are commonly referred to
as excellent publicity for Bismarck.
This, of course, is true, but it does
not get to the heart Of the matter.
Bismarck is in no dire need Of public
ity. AS the state capital 1t is North
Dakota's biggest news center. More
things Of statewide importance hap
pen here than anywhere else in the
state and so a common question is
whats going on in Bismarck" We
need do nothing in particular to have
the rest Of the state aware of US.
But we do need friends and here is
where the Legion's musical organiza-
ton shines. It is friend-maker par
excellence.
Snappy in appearance and perform
ance, accommodating by disposition
and containing q large number Of
men who carry friendliness in their
hearts, it makes good impression
everywhere. People think more kind
ly Of Bismarck when our drum corps
attends their local festivities and Bis
marck Is credited with showing an in
terest in its neighbors.
To make these trips requires time
and no little effort on the part of the
drum corps members, yet they respond
holly to frequent appeals as a matter
II civic duty, often at personal sac
sifice.
But even as we note the splendid
services which this organization rem
ders, one wonders if 1t is fair to as
sign 1t the job of making Bismarck
known as friendly city and one glad
to cooperate with folks in other towns.
It might be good idea if all Of us
would check up on the things we are
doing and should not do. together
with the things we should do and are
not doing, to improve our already fine
contacts with our friends in this Sec
ton.
Careful examination might develop
means which would serve to still
further emphasize Bismarck's posi-
ton as the leading city In western
North Dakota.

UNION LABOR'S OPPORTUNITY

GENERAL HUGH S. JOHNSONs blunt
- statement that it is not the purpose of
the industrial recovery act to unionize all
American labor emphasizes sharply the re-
sponsibility and the opportunity which rests
today upon the leaders of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor.
Under the new law, as General johnson
points out, full unionization is possible The
government will see to it that organized labor
gets break 1t won't permit big industrialists
to compel their men to stay unorganized
But it isn't going to do any spoon feeding.
If there is to be complete unionization the job
must be done by organized labor itself
That puts it squarely up to the A. F. of L..
The chance of lifetime is open for that or
ganization today; if it has the energy and in
telligence to take advantage of it, it can win
more power than it ever dreamed of before
But Uncle Sam won't do the job for it.
