TELLING THE PUBLIC ABOUT
COLDS

Nearly every season We hear great
deal about the launching of some sci
entific expedition to find the cause of
the common cold and. 1t is always
hoped, cure. What was perhaps the
most pretentious Of all such research
projects set forth from John Hopkins
some three years ago. acclaimed by
half-page and page articles in the
Sunday supplements and imposing in
terviews of the head mountebanks, but
once the big quest got under way the
world heard no more of it. I suspect
the objective was attained when the
last half-page of available space was
exhausted. Although the self-deSig-
mated SavantS who staged the big
shindy announced that they sought
the cause of the common cold. none

course I don't know what ailment I
am talking about-neither do you and
neither does any physician or health
authority in the country. No one can
define 1.-The common cold" No one
dares to commit himself about It.
The boys who get the publicity, or
maybe the salaries or maybe the en-
dowmentS for researches on the ques-
ton, prefer to leave it as is. They In
sinuate that any lam fool knows what
the common cold is. All right, II you
know.
| One OF our great metropolitan
medical societies publishes in the
press an elucidation of the nature and
cause Of Colds" based on the quaint
premise that many kinds Of germs
are present in the air we Breathe
which is q false premise. an un-
| founded assumption, for we know that
the few bacteria in the air are harm
less to man, and there is no good rea-
son to imagine that any disease Is
ever carried in or by the air or spread
by germs floating in the air. cite

sponsored by one Of our great official

The Legislatures Problem


Unbiased estimate of the situation
which confronts the present session
of the state legislature leads to the
conclusion that it cannot solve all Of
the problems which are presented to
it. No legislature could.
This situation is true in other states
as well as in North Dakota. Honest
efforts and intelligent direction will
enable it to make real advances and
to partially meet the situation, but
there appears to be no complete ans
wer.
The states fiscal situation illus
trates the matter perfectly.
Members OF the assembly were
charged by their constituents with re-
ducing the taxes and relieving their
lot as individuals. It Is only fair
that they should do 50. Indeed, it is
a necessity.
But there is also the good Of the
state to be considered. II 1t can be
prevented North Dakotas credit
should be kept in good standing. Pro-
vision must be made to pay the inter-
est and build up q sinking fund for
retirement of state bonds when they
become due. This means additional
taxes.
The two problems exist side by side
and each presses for an adequate
answer. But to solve one may make
it necessary to ignore the other. Leg
islatures are like people. They can
not eat their cake and have 1t too.

Two Cabinets Fall

Downfall Of the cabinets In France
and Germany brings to light anew
the troubled and tangled condition Of
European politics. It also gives new
proof Of the relative emotional sta
bility Of the Nordic peoples and their
genius for self government.
To be sure the results Of the last
election in this country represented
the downfall OF a certain group III
government, but that event did not
come quickly or as the result Of dis
satisfaction over single issue. It
was thing which grew and grew
and by many the chastisement was
administered in the well known spirit
Of this hurts me as much as 1t
does you" For better or for worse
We have committed ourselves to the
hands of certain group for the next
four years. Whatever the outcome we
shall abide by the decision.
The recent history of France and
Germany demonstrates pretty con-
clusively that they do not know what
they really want. The life OF recent
French governments has been meas
ured in days or weeks rather than in
months or years and in Germany the
situation is little different. The group
which helped to overthrow govern
ment yesterday comes to power today
and is itself overthrown tomorrow.
This is not true in England, how
ever. The coalition cabinet has been
stable ever since the abandonment Of
the labor group Ky Premier Mcdonald
and others and there seems little In
dication OF change in the near fu-
ture. This despite the fact that con-
ditions are comparatively worse in
England than in France.
National temperament must have
a great deal to do with it. The
French are mercurial They demand
both this and that when they can
have only one of the two things

Marriage Credits

When Butler college. at 1ndianap-

course In preparation for marriage
would be offered, we innocently as
sun1ed that this was the first time
such a course could be taken by
eligibles. But we now learn that
North Carolina has that honor. At
least, the students at Chapel Hill had
the opportunity few years ago, and
the Butterflies are not the first.
The professors In Indianapo S

Count Smith Out?

Al Smith, interviewed In Washing
ton, apparently takes himself out OF
the list Of cabinet possibilities by an
nouncing that he would not accept
such an offer because he is head
Of as many things now as I want to
be-"
Whether he would insist on this
stand II he really were pressed to
become chief of one of the federal
departments may be debatable
question, but the governor always has
been a man of his word and the pros
pect of having brown derby parked
on the hatrack In corner OF the
White House meeting room is at least
questionable.
The decision will disappoint a great
many Of Smiths admirers who feel
that he could render signal service to
the nation as q member of the cab
met. Smiths antecedents and ex-
perience brand him as very much one
Of the common people. interested in
their welfare and familiar with their
problems. His humble beginnings are
so fresh in his mind that he not only
sympathizes with the trials of the
everyday man. he feels with him and
thinks with him. Therein has lair,
the secret OF Smiths political success
and il the nation ever needed that
attribute in public life it is now.
President-elect Roosevelt is un-
questionably q liberal. He may go
down in history as great one, but
his is an academic interest as COM
pared with that of Smith. He resents
the fact that poverty exists in a land
where it need not exist, but he has
never felt its pinch. His heart bleeds
for those who need bread. but hunger
has never gnawed at his own vitals
AS an orphaned boy on New Yorks
waterfront, Smith not only saw these
things, he experienced them. They
are an essential part Of him. As q
member Of the cabinet that expert
ence would be carried with him into
the meeting room and from its store
Of knowledge would come a viewpoint
which would be of real benefit to the
nation.
Thousands of loyal Americans will
hope that AL will not insist on his
stand or that Mr.. Roosevelt will per-
suade him that the country really
needs his services.
