Washington, Aug. 2o.-The hazards
Of sickness and accident. constant
threat OF economic disaster to most
Of W, have become q concern Of the
New Deal.
inside information indicates that
some federal program for sickness in
surance 10 almost certain to be recon-
mended to the next Congress. It will

plan for unemplo yment insurance, old
age pension, and other security meas
ures.
Many New Dealers favor tied by
Harry Hopkins and other Federal

ficials. Roosevelt, who in many years
as an invalid was associated with
other invalids, is strongly in SYM
pathy.
The committee he appointed TO
advise with him on . social secur-
ity program, It's work directed by
Prof. Edwin Z. Witte Of Wisconsin,
will outline various possible plans.
Sickness insurance means cash
benefits for sickness to compensate
for lost earning power and also medi-
cal care-at the expense Of insurance
funds. It's big aim is relief Of poverty
among low-inoome workers whose
wages automatically stop when they're
incapacitated.

The Value of Simplicity

Offer the average man needing
headlight reflector equipped with
prismatic glass and one with plain
glass and he probably would take the
former-and thereby get fooled, &C
cording to recent discovery of the
bureau of aeronautics in the depart
ment of commerce.
This discovery, by the way, will
make the new airway now being
lighted through the northwest one Of
the best-lighted and most inexpensive
in the world.
The story goes back to the adop-
ton by the bureau of 24-inch beacons
with prismatic cover glasses. which
were equipped with 1,o0o-watt bulbs
and produced 100000 candlepower.
They were the last word when they
were adopted. But the need for econ
omy forced q change to 500-watt
lamps and the beacons developed only
10000 candlepower, thereby reducing
the efficiency. Scientists were put
to work to see what they could do
about It.
Finally, one Of them thought Of
using plain glass with a new type o.
reflector and was surprised to fine
that it produced 1000 900 candlepowel
with = 500.watt bulb. The technica
explanation Is that the auxiliary re-
Hector Is mounted in front Of tn
lamp and throws stray light. which
would normally escape from the from

OF dentistry from medicine is ana
chronistic, both the separate schools
and the aloofness between the physi-
clans and dentists in practice. Prop
erly, of course, dentistry is a special
branch Of medicine, and no one
should be permitted to practice den-
tistry until he has completed a course
in a medical school and obtained the
degree of M. D., after which he should
pursue such technical study as may
be necessary to tit him for his spec
ialty.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
DISCRIMINATING Ants


! make a strong solution of creolin

such treatment once q week keeps

Answer-Some people dislike the
odor Of creolin perhaps because it is
so much used about dog kennels.

The Right Attitude

Reiteration by Thomas Noodle,
Democratic candidate for governor,
that reason, not rancor, will be the
basis OF his campaign, should have
the support Of all North Dakota citi-
zens. II We are to solve our political
troubles we need q calm appraisal of
the condition in which we find our
selves and the probable results Of
whatever course we may choose. In
asmuch as his attitude will help to
bring about such an attitude OF mind,
Noodle deserves the praise Of every
one
That this attitude may be misin-
terpreted as weakness is a risk which
Noodle must run, for recent events
in North Dakota have not been con-
ducive to calm reasoning and our i'm
mediate political history shows that
the calling Of names is an accom-
plishment which can be made to win
votes.
He must, too. run the risk that his
opponents will not take so high
minded and statesmanlike an atti-
tude.
Refusing to throw mud himself, he
may become the target for attempts
at character assassination.
If, however. the people keep In
mind the fact that principles as well
as personalities are involved, the ef-
feet may be more harmful to those
who descend to such tactics than to
their opponents.
Under the stress Of present condi-
tons. North Dakota needs both eco
nomic and political relief. In the
popular mind one may be synono-
nous with the other, but this Is not
necessarily true. Good prices for a
good crop will take care Of the eco
nomic situation as no activity Of any
government could possibly do.
But that sound and constructive
political administration can aid in
the restoration OF economic condi-
tons Is also true. The relationship
of government to agriculture and
business now is so direct and exists
in SO many ways that, while govern
ment finds it difficult to create pros
perity, 1t certainly can saddle it with
tremendous handicap.
Now. while the air is relatively
clear Of fur and feathers, is the time
for North Dakota to analyze its po-
litical situation, make up its mind as
to what it does and does not want.
The one issue which should deter
mine the public reaction is which
course Will be of most benefit to the
individual voter, that OF electing
Noodle or that of electing his oppo-
nent. The place for this study is in
the individual homes Of the state, not
in the meetings which are whipped
up to frenzy by demagogic speakers.
Lurid talk may win votes but it will
solve none of our problems.
The only thing which will do that
is careful appraisal of the facts and
the application of common sense.

sizes that completely Is not, neces-
sarily, q virtue. In . good many ways
the simple and obvious things still

A DENTOR WHO LIKES OIL DOC

I feel a good deal like the boy who
reported to his mother that there were
a million cats fighting in the back
yard. When mother came a-run:1ing
they decided that anyway 1t was o1lr

Long years ago the dentists rather
liked my teachings. They hadn't
learned that 7 don't believe 1t is
worth while brushing ones teeth.
Nor had thought up that detestable
scheme Of having the dentists relin-
quish the trade use Of the title Of
doctor" to practicing physicians ex-
clusively. Nor had I started calling
dentists "Dentor" instead Of DOC

Today have two dentists who are
still my friends. One Is my own
dentist-he has base designs on

80 years, but aside from that I think
he is q swell dentist and II anybody
