GOLD DECISION IS
TOPIC AT ROTARY
George Shafer Outlines Effects
Of Supreme Courts Rul.
in1 at Luncheon

A brief history Of the monetary
system Of the United States and the
developments which led up to and the
effects Of the supreme courts gold
clause decision was given by George
+. Shafer, former governor Of North
Dakota, in an address before the local
Rotary club Wednesday.
"The gold clause decision repre-
sents landmark in the history Of the
United States" Shafer said after
tracing the part that the federal gov
eminent played in establishing a uni
form monetary system over the Unit
ed States.
The ruling which invalidated the
gold clause in private bond contracts
actually conferred upon Congress and
the President the power to initiate or
deflate our currency, or in other
words gave to the administrative and
legislative branches Of the govern
ment the power to regulate the none
tary system, he said.
Shafer pointed out that approxi-
mately seven billion dollars in private
contracts and IL billion dollars in
government contracts would be az

The changes will greatly speed up
travel on the two airplane lines into
Bismarck with the westbound plane
Of the Northwest Always arriving
here only one hour before the south
bound plane Of the Hanford Airlines
is scheduled to take off instead Of
four hours earlier as formerly.
Also made possible by the change
In the schedule will be the use Of one
plane on the southern route instead
Of two. At present two planes are
needed to operate the southern sched-
ule, one leaving here at 1885 p. M,
and the plane arriving from the south
at 1:l0 p. m. This makes 1t necessary
for one plane to remain here over
night and then fly back the next day.
Under the new schedule the plane
from the south will arrive at the same
time as heretofore, 1:l0 o'clock, but
the same plane will fly back over the
southern route, leaving here at l:35
p. m. The changes were made pos
sible by alterations In schedules at
the southern terminal Of the lines.

Editor, Tribune:
I have agreed with Mr.. ounderson
whole heartedly that taxes should be
slashed. but recovery Of any perma-
nence can never be brought about by
Gripping the institutions Of higher
learning. Temporary recovery would
doubtless come about by use OF his
procedure, but when we crush the
means Of educating our youth we
might well expect long-lived disaster.
It Is extremely ridiculous to slash
the taxes needed for educational pur-
poses when there are so many other
ways In which taxes could be cut
much more wisely. For example. the
money spent on maintenance OF our
roads and highways could easily be
cut in half during these times Of fl
nancial perplexity. Taxes on hard
liquors should be increased consider
ably II our standards are not to sink
to the low level Of filthy. drunken
sots. I question q single sound prin-
ciple in leaving q low tax on liquor
while cutting taxes for the support
Of our educational institutions 10 per
cent, more or less.
The college graduates Of today are
directing and guiding the young peo-
pie and the social oenters Of this and
every other state. They are the
dynamic, forceful leaders Of every
progressive community, reaching
them through the schools, churches,
and in numerous other ways where
knowledge, responsibility and guild
ance are required. They are train
ing young men and women to ex-
press themselves and to be SELF

very progressive with one where edu-
cation has been retarded, neglected,
and crushed to determine which Is
the more desirable and influential.
Also, should like to have anyone
compare the relative number Of COL
lege graduates being supported BY
relief to those who have not had any
higher education. Dear friends, 1t
would offer some interesting work to
those who believe that education q
the cause Of increased lawlessness to
actually dig into statistics to find out
whether those coming from slums,
tenements. backward communities
and the uneducated classes are not
doing more than college students and
graduates to fill up the insane asy-
lums, reformatories, and peniten-
tiaries.
Perhaps it is true that some Of the
college students are seeking for
money without labor. but that Is far
from being true OF college students
alone. For the most part, college
students are struggling for enlight-
eminent In the fields Of their inter-
ests and abilities. Doctors, dentists,
lawyers. and engineers are all college
graduates. They have positions which
require accuracy, responsibility, and
tact. How. then. can anyone make
the sad mistake Of trying to under
mine such noteworthy cause as
that Of education?
To cripple education In our state
and expect good results is just as
erroneous as it IS to expect horse
with q broken leg to continue giving
service. My last thought to leave
with you is this: If we are not in
terested in the future of our sons and
daughters. our state, and our beloved
nation. then by all means. change our
educational institutions into insane
asylums, reformatories. and feeble
minded institutions because they will.
without doubt, need much greater
capacities.

WHEN YOU TAKE
A LAXATIVE
80. use q spoon

1t isn't what brand Of laxative you
take that's so important-it's the
form. A liquid laxative can be taken
in any required amount. If only
little is needed, you need never take
a bit too much.
Doctors favor the easily measured
liquid laxatives. Instead Of any form
that does not encourage variation
from the fixed dose. A fixed dose may
be an overdose for you-or your
child.
Always remember this one thing
about constipation: the secret Of any
real relief is reduced dosage.
Give the bowels only as much help
as may be needed. and less help as
the need grows less. You will find DR..
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin an excellent
aid in regulating the bowels. 1t con-
tains SIENNA and cascara (natural
laNatives) and it will cleanup any
bilious, sluggish condition without
upset. Delightful taste, and pleasant
action. Your druggist has it.
