II this Is true, 1t would seem the part
Of good Judgment to get our people

Another good sign on the national
horizon IS the apparent intention to
put an Interpretation on the national

more harm than good just now.
It Is true that Americas highest
destiny clearly lies in the establish

In abandoning attempts to get there

Besides, as q matter Of national

A Call to Arms

In . militant talk before Tuesday

tional Farmers Holiday association,
attacked Henry Wallace, secretary Of
agriculture. and the farm policies of
the Roosevelt administration and
wound up in fanfare by saying 'aThe
problems Of American farmers will not

shoulders and use force"
And 50 the call to arms q sounded

A PrOper Adjustment


Decision by the national emergency
relief administration to discontinue
its minimum wage Of 80 cents an hour
Is step In the right direction, for
this Is one Of the things which has
been handicapping recovery.
The 30-cent-an-hour minimum does
not represent high wages. In fact, It
Is doubtful II relief wages ever win

Ing costs are higher than In some
other parts Of the country.
It = easy enough. however, to see
that tho relief minimum has In many
cases become the practical minimum
for private employment, Il Tor no
other reason because many workers
feel they need not work for less than
erelief" wages.
The case Of . Hypothetical relief

minimum has been 30 cents, illus

Constructive Action


Announcement Saturday by High
way Commissioners r. q. Plomasen
that tho road to the municipal air.
port and Fort Lincoln will be I'M
proved by oiling early next year
marks an advance, both In Bis
marck's relations with Fort Lincoln
and In the sound distribution Of fed
eral money in North Dakotas high
way department.
Under the stress Of putting men to
work with federal money sent into
this state there Is no question but
that great many unnecessary prof.
ects were launched. AL were desir-
able, perhaps, but not vital. Under
the old regime In the state highway
department, roads were constructed
which began nowhere In particular
and ended In exactly the same man
ner.
Now, It Is apparent. Z different
spirit rules The most necessary and
vital things are to be done first. This
idea, carried into action throughout
the state, viii do much to take the
stigma Of political operation off the
highway department and restore It to
the confidence Of the people. FOR this
Commissioner Plomasen deserves con-
CALCULATIONS, especially 20 In view Of
the history Of tho Fort Lincoln prof.
ect.
The road to the airport and Fort Lin
coin Is one Of the most heavily tray
eled In this area, especially 80 since
the state CCC headquarters was To-
Gated there. There Is every reason to
believe that the volume Of traffic
viii be increased by the location along
1t Of Bismarck's new packing plant.
Two years ago. when the govern
ment first granted money for such
improvements, the Fort Lincoln road
was listed as . necessity by the Bur-
leigh county commissioners. Repeat
edly they took up the matter with
the men who then managed the high
way department but each time some-
thing interfered. There were few
votes at Fort Lincoln and no political
pressure was brought to bear. The
result was tacit refusal to build this
road. subterfuge and deception were
employed to hold it up In order that
the money might be used elsewhere.
But tho Burleigh county commits
sioners kept after 1t and. with Plo-
masen In the saddle, success finally
met their efforts. We arc to have
this much-needed improvement ct
last.
Residents Of the Fort doubtless will
b grateful and the residents Of Bis
marck should DO properly apprecia-
tive, too. They are not forced to
bounce around In automobiles nego-
tiating ruts and worn places in the
road and their children are not forced
to travel It en- route to school, but the
fort IS . valuable adjunct to the city
Of Bismarck and the friendship Of the
people who reside there u important
to us.

Increase of 1873 Per Cent Is

NEW YORK, May 1.-THE total
number of employees of the federal,
state and local governments in
creased from 2,618,000 in 1922 to
$4,000 in 1882, or 1913 per cent,
according to the national industrial
conference board report. During
the same period the total popula-
ton of the country increased 1876
per cent. The percentage increase
in government employees was about
one and one-half times as great
as the increase in population.
In 1882 there were 100000 per-
sons available for gainful employ
ment, including the unemployed. In
the same year there was enough
work of various types available 10
provide employment on a full time
basis for 34,131 900 persons. Gov
eminent employees, therefore, &C
counted for 81 per cent of the full

In 1882 employees of the federal
government numbered 952,419, or 30.5
per cent of the total. This num-
Der includes 274,852 persons be-

In the special groups, packing
