D, Both Accredited and Unaccred- ited High Schools Are ‘Showing Increase | High school enrolment in North Dakota increased 6,543 during the last five years, according to data compiled by the state department oi public instruction. Enrolments were investigated for both accredited and unaccredited schools. In accredited high schools there was an increase of 4,238 pupils from 1926 to 1931. This increase in- cluded 1,714 from the 27 high schools a during the five year pe- In 1931 teachers salaries were in- creased $219,605 over 1926. Since umcrredited high schools-of- fer state high school examinations, their enrollments have been deter- mined from the number of examina- tion papers submitted annually to the office of the department. of public instruction, In 1926 there were 41,- 170 papers submitted, while in 1931 there were 55,000. This was an in- crease of 25.2 per cent in the five- year period. During the same time 25 high schools that offered state high schol examinations in 1926 have become accredited high schools and no longer offer these examina- tions. If these schools had not become ac- credited schools, they would have submitted approximately 10,524 pa- pers annually, according to John A. Page, director of secondary education for the department, this would have made dn increase of 24,354 papers in 1931 over 1926. These schools, how- ever, Page said, submitted papers in 1926 but did not submit any in 1931; nevertheless, the number of papers submitted has increased 13,830. “The high school enrolment in- crease in rural communities has been even more extensive than in the larger centers,” Page sald. “Evidence for this is shown in the extra num of state high school examination papers that are submit- ted since the schools that offer these examinations are usually in small towns or in the open country. There has also been considerable increase in the number of small schools desir- ing to offer high school work. This demand has been greater in the past two years than ever before. “In the ten larger towns of the state, the enrolment in the public high schools has increased 1,039 since 1926. This includes only the four- year and senior high schools an does not include the junior high schools, The increase in the number of high school pupils has been pro- portionately greater in the western part of the state for all types of high schools. The added interest in high} schools over the entire state both by} farm people and town pepole is significant and without doubt will show beneficial results within a few years. This increase. has necessarily; increased school costs and even with school officials attempting to reduce costs to a minimum, the work be- comes more difficult in the face of increasing enrolments, The people of North Dakota should not be alarmed when the results that are to be attained are considered.” Fergus | Falls Hotel Razed; Guests Escape Fergus Falls, Minn., Jan. 2.—(®)— Twenty persons escaped serious in- jury. early Saturday when fire de- stroyed the three-story Christiana ho- tel building. Four persons were rescued by fire- men after they had been overcome by smoke. NN. H.

He sent Mahatma Gandhi a telegram warning him that the government would hold him and the congress responsible. for any action they may take, and that the government will be ready to | meet any action. Gandhi smiled when he read the message. Bombay, India, Jan, 2.—(#)—There were indications Saturday that a truce might be reached by Mahatma Gandhi and the British government in India to avert resumption of the civil disobedience campaign. Powerful influences were at work to persuade Viceroy Lord Willingdon to receive Gandhi without placing any restrictions upon the matters to be discussed. Heretofore the Viceroy has insisted he will not permit dis- cussion of the recently-enacted pro- vincial ordinances extending the power of local authorities to deal with political disorders, Many telegrams have been sent to Lord Willingdon by business inter- ests which feel another nationalist campaign would precipitate a grave economic crisis,and Sir Tej Bahadur Sapru was active in negotiations to prevent war. It was Sir Tej who, as peacemaker, saved the negotiations between Ma- hatma Gandhi and Lord Irwin, for- mer viceroy, from collapse last year and who poured oil on the troubled waters of the recent round-table con- ference in London. Gandhi, with nis proverbial pa- tience, is listening to the peacemak- ers’ appeals but, because the nation- alist congress has already mobilized its forces for the renewal of the civil disobedience campaign, the country’s fate rests with the viceroy. It was expected India will know be- fore the sun sinks again whether the government is ready to stay its hand/ or join issue with the Mahatma, who! continued calmly awaiting his arrest. Both sides, in the meantime, were mobilizing quickly for the struggle. The authorities have long lists of Indian leaders in every district of the country who will be arrested as soon as the Viceroy gives the signal. As in Gandhi's case, there will be no trials. Those arrested will be in- terned after being charged with vio- jating special ordinances which will be promulgated immediately after the government decides to suppress the Nationalists. The ordinances wil! make it a penal offense for anyone to engage in the no-tax campaign, the civil disobedience movement or the boycott of British goods. The present British regime plans to} deal much more strictly with the situation than Lord Irwin's govern- ment did. Unless the decision is for ‘peace, which is regarded as most improb- able, the government will rule with a special ordinance which the Mahat- ma has characterized as equivalent to martial law. Anticipating his arrest momer.tar- ily, Gandhi has worked feverishly day night. He said he has been formulating plans for a struggle which will be more bitter. and widespread than the last. He has had no sleep for 48 hours: and has prayed fervently in his tent, Licenses Denied to Taxicab Companies Permission to operate taxicab lines hhas been denied the Yellow Cab com- pany and the Ball Taxicab company as the result of a hearing before the state railroad board and state licens- ing department, R. C. Morton, assist- ant attorney general, said Saturday. The hearing was held after State's Attorney George S. Register of Bur- leigh county had filed charges with the attorney general charging that the vehicles used by the concerns’ were used to violate the prohibition laws. In the case of the Yellow Cab com- pany, the license then in force was canceled, Application for a license was denied to the Ball company. Owners of the Yellow Cab company have disposed of their holdings, which are to be operated under new manage- ment. Proprietors of the Ball com- pany were negotiating a sale Satur- day, Morton said. y Half of Veterans in State Have Borrowed On U. S. Certificates Fargo, N. D., Jan. 2.—()}—Approxt- mately 50 per cent of North Dakota World war veterans have borrowed the full amount available on their adjusted certificates, it is estimated by C. T. Hoverson, regional manager of the United States Veterans’ Bureau here. Under an act of congress last Feb- ruary the veterans were permitted to draw up to 50 per cent of the face value of their certificates, originally intended to mature in 1945. Interest of 4'2 per cent is being paid on the loans, To date, approximately $2,350,000 has been paid North Dakota veterans on their certificates by the veterans’ bureau. It is estimated close to $500,- 000,000 has been borrowed on the pa- per from banks throughout the state. Some 6,500 men were granted the loans through the veterans’ bureau alone. It is estimated approximately 2,000 borrowed through banks, making about 50 per cent of the total of 17,- 000 North Dakota men who hold the certificates.’ The average certificate is for $1,007. Many veterans had made previous loans. Between 40 and 50 requests for the loans are being received monthly at the veterans’ office, said Hoverson. Says Announcement Of Truce Premature West Point, N. Y., Jan. 2—(P)}- Major Philip B. Fleming, graduate manager of athletics at the military academy, Saturday said that reports of an agreement between West Point and the naval academy for a re- sumption of athletic relations were premature.

Convicts and farm laborers con- tinued to pile sandbags on the bar- riers against the steadily rising wa- ters as provisions dwindled. Mcan- while, Red Cross workers surveyed, the flood area to determine the ex- tent of relief work needed. Tallahatchie, Quitman and Panola counties lay under an expanding flooa ring rains as torrents washed dowz below Glendora into northern Le- flore county. Levee tops around Glendora, Swan Lake, Sumner and Webb still were above the flood but workers relcut: antly agreed they have done all with. in their power to save the towns and the situation now has resolved itself into a matter of waiting for develop- ments. - | In view of this aspect, flood work- ers concentrated efforts on providing food for the refugees.
