Where Necessity Drives

An old problem in new dress
comes to the government with the
protest by the National Association
Of Motor Bus Operators against pro-
posed reductions in passenger fare
rates by the railroads. Their conten-
tion Is that such practices should be
prohibited under the "fair competi-
tion" clause of the recovery act which
presumably is intended to place all
industries on a profitable basis by
barring the price cutter.
The funny part of the whole busi-
ness, of course, is that this complaint
Is one which has been the exclusive
property of the railroads for a long
time. They have long insisted that
unfair competitive practices" by the
bus industry have cut into their re-
ceipts.
There is every reason to believe
that this controversy between these
transportation media is approaching
it's last stages as result Of increased
initiative on the part of the rail-
roads.
Development by various lines Of
light, high-speed trains will have the
effect, sooner or later, of putting par
allel bus lines out OF business. The
railroads long have been in position
to give improved service if they only
would.
When this time arrives, the bus
lines and railroads will complement
each other as they should, not fight
each other.
It seems apparent that the era of
railroad expansion is over in this
country. The mileage Of line oper-
ated has decreased in recent years
and the iron horse no longer is nee
essary to open up new territory. But
in the fields which they cover the
railroads still are in position to give
the best and fastest service and ne
cessity apparently is driving them
to it.

and sinking fund, taxes shall be lev
led to meet this condition. This prob
ably will be done by the state board
OF equalization which will meet this
month to begin the job Of fixing the
state tax levy. There appears no
honest way Of escaping this charge.
How serious that burden will be is
indicated by the volume of interest
payments for which loans have been
obtained from the government.
Roughly, it amounts to 100000
year. o. =.
This is a pretty penny for the tax
payers OF North Dakota to take upon
their -burdened backs. When it
comes they should take careful note
Of how it got there; remember that

Good Business-But

00O0 ~)eS0AASS00
That loan Of $685. 900 to the Bank
of North Dakota to finance interest
payments on its real estate bonds and
retire certain Of these securities when
they come due is good deal for the
state of North Dakota. But 1t also
is another danger signal on the fl
nancial path which this state is
treading.
It means that the state Of North
Dakota cannot pay these charges
from its ordinary source OF revenue,
but this cannot alter the fact that It
some day will have to do so. It must
not only repay this loan; it must
raise the money to pay interest on
and eventually retire some $4,000, 600
in bonds still outstanding.

this land loan business. payments by
FARMERS and others who received the
money would have provided an ample
fund to care for interest and retire
ment. No one blames the farmers
for their inability to pay, but the fact
that they cannot and have not is in
escapable. This places the burden on
the general taxpayer, largely upon
those who have received no benefit
whatever from this land loaning sys-
tenn.

PHYSICAL CONTEST IS FINE FOR
NERVOUSNESS

AS explained in the monograph
Chronic Nervous Imposition" fear is
the essential source of all nervous
ness. We can't enlarge on this here;
it is explained only conscisely in the
booklet-what would you expect for
a dime and a stamped envelope bear
ing your address?
Fear is the primary emotion which
gives rise to anger, rage, worry, anx-
iety, irritability, sorrow, melancholia
and all the other secondary emotional
states that harass the nervous"
Before you can go further in this
course, children, you must have a fair
conception of evolution, and you can't
get that from any critic.
The instructive or natural reaction
to fear is fight or flight. It is only
when or because either or both of
these natural reactions are restrained
or repressed that nervousness" oc-
ours. Actual combat or running away
is always the best preventive Of "nerv-
business" Of any kind. Fortunately
there are various good substitutes for
fight or flight, all physical, none
mental. Dismiss all thought Of self
control or power to mask emotions"
Or "the ability to preserve nonchal-
ance or to keep his temper under ex-
treme annoyance" Far better for your
own health and welfare NOT to strive
for such unnatural effects.
Athletics Is the great succedaneum
for combat or escape. Athletics is the
srt of training by exercise for excel
:ence in contests or games Of skill,
strength, agility or endurance.
It IS necessary to distinguish clearly
athletics from sport. Athletics is in
dividual. Sport is social or CONNER
cial. American college football is
sport; so is the imitation staged by
precocious high school children. Every
school boy or school girl. even the
cripple, has some game or some stunt
or physical act in which he excels or
at least finds enjoyment. Every boy
or girl should have the chance to cul-
tivate the accomplishment in which
he or she finds pleasure or shows
special aptitude, whether it be gym
nastic dancing, sprinting, boxing,
target shooting or riding. Enthusiasm
for playing checkers is far better for
any one than is love of football or
other commerc rcialized sport.
1nterscholastic or intersectional or
international sport meets are an ad-
rnirable outlet for emotions that might
otherwise lead towards war. The world
needs more such contests as the
Olympics provide. It is strange that
with all the bla-bla over sport in this
country there are so few national
contests that offer opportunities fol
individuals to test their abilities.
The most confirmed neurasthenics
have ever known were individuals
without any kind Of avocation, hobby
or other alternative interest in life. II

New York, Aug. 2.-It's a pretty gay
dotage that the five-masted barken-
tine Buccaneer has embarked upon.
The ship is showboat now, the only
one in these waters, and she's full to
the scuppers with pulchritude, her
staunch decks echoing with the pre-
cision of the chorus.
Tunes have changed. It was not
long ago that songs like this drifted
through her ShroudS and SparS:
"Oh, the anchor is weighed and the
sails they are set.

Buccaneer one day sailed into the

Why KIDNAPPING Prospers

\lNC" VI h AllVCJ
Why is kidnapping apparently or
the way to become a thriving
racket? Why, to its practitioners
professional or amateur, does 1t look
like profitable speculative business!
A writer in The Law Journal gives
the answer, obvious enough but nat.
urally unregarded by the distressed
relatives Of the kidnapped:
It is because not only the vic
tim but the friends and family of
the person kidnapped eagerly COM
municates with the kidnapers to
the end that the object OF the
crime may be accomplished,
which is, of course, the obtaining
Of the money paid as ransom.
There is no other crime of which
it Is true that dozens Of innocent
persons cooperate with the GRIM
inals In securing the object Of the
crime.
Thus kidnapping becomes "a legal.

offense against the law as to seize {

Lifting the Lower Crust


The slowly developing picture pro-
duced in this country by operation of
the National Industrial Recovery law
makes it increasingly plain that all
precedents are being violated.
The ancient saw Of ITO them that
hath shall be given" is being ignored
with a vengeance. In its place we
have a new motto which puts the
power of the government behind the
effort to help those who have not.
Put in little different way, 1t is an
attempt to lift societys present lower
crust.
In so doing certain problems have
been presented to industry but no
one with social consciousness will
contend that they are insuperable. In
the end the effect should be good.
TO be sure, not all businesses can
make the grade" at once. The ad-
justments which some arrangements
face are so difficult and so far
reaching that the problem requires
study. This is particularly true of
small concerns with only few en-
ployes where the addition of one
worker would add materially to the
payroll. It also is true Of larger
firms where few workmen of spe-
cial skill are hired for particular op-
erations.
The wage scale proposition does not
offer so many difficulties. Few Or
ganizations in North Dakota are pay
ing less than the minimum provided
in the blanket code for adult work.
ers. Those who are should not hesi-
tate to come up to the scale. It is
low enough.
One effect Of the new agreement,
not Immediately apparent, may be to
reduce temporarily the weekly or
monthly paychecks Of highly-paid
workers. A statement by General
Hugh johnson in which this was
made clear recently served notice on
that point. In the more affluent oc-
cupations a reduction in working
time may be accompanied by a cor
responding curtailment In total wages
paid, provided the entire payroll for
an establishment is larger and more
men are put to work.
The so-called princes OF labor" as
well as those charged with the man
agement Of industry will have to
bend their backs beneath the burden
until things can be set on an even
keel again. They must do this in
order to help the man who has no
Job at all, who cannot earn enough
to supply his family with the bare
necessities.
It is to lifting this "lower crust"
off the relief rolls. that the govern
ment clearly has addressed itself. The
effort is laudable one. In the end
the sacrifices made by men in better
positions, employer and skilled en-
ploye alike, will be justified.
In this connection it should be re-
membered that the term "lower
crust" applies only to an individuals
economic status. Some persons with
fine intellectual and social qualities
are included in this number. Almost
any relief list contains the names of
persons who were well provided for
only few years ago.
It IS this fact which the govern
ment recognizes in its effort to pro-
vide them with opportunity to earn
living by use Of their own brains
and hands.
