He rises as you pass, grins, shakes hands, pats your cheek, “Fine color this climate gives you,” he says, “Is everything all right?” “Well. Is the war about over?” He waves a deprecating hand. “Who . knows?” he asks, “Who knows?” He likes Americans and everything American except the consideration of sanctions, During the World war he was closely associated with Gen. John J. Pershing, played poker with him, twice visited the United States. He even looks like Knute Rockne. Finally he gives in. “Yes,” he says, “it’s marking field headquarters armies, about over.

The line submitted estimates of which would be the biggest in Ameri- ca’s merchant marine, but an actual bid which had been expected under @ contract with the commerce de- ‘ partment was not made. This contract permitted United States Lines to dock the Leviathan, which was losing money, if the line would build a new ship of the Man- hattan and Washington type. Failure to contract for a new ship by midnight Wednesday was to re- quire a forfeit of $1,000,000 to the gov- ernment by United States Lines. The forfeit, however, was held in abeyance pending study. “What we want is a new ship.” The situation thus was again left unsettled while the navy department considers what it can do. A figure somewhat under $12,000,000 had been mentioned in official circles as proper. While the new liner would be slightly larger than the Manhattan and Washington, it would be much smaller than several foreign ships. Bids for Fargo Bridge Called by Road Bureau Bids were called for Thursday by the North Dakota state highway de- partment for construction of the new interstate Front street bridge joining Fargo and Moorhead, Minn., and will be opened at 10 a. m. April 28 at the Fargo courthouse. According to general estimates the bridge will cost approximately $250,- 000, The cost will be divided equally between North Dakota and Minne- sota, although each state must butid its own approach. The state nighway departments in turn may use cetair federal aid funds. Specifications provide the work must start by May 15 and the bridge must be opened to interstate traffic not later than Nov. 15. a. | Eckener’s Name ,__Tabooed by Nazis | Berlin, April 2—(4)—Dr. Hugo Eckener, commander of the Graf Zeppelin, has become “taboo” to the Nazis because of his conduct during the reichstag election cam- Paign.

Schools} IN 66,950 RECRUITS No Violation of Constitution Found in Gladstone Case by Supreme Court Employment of Catholic nuns, Qualified as teachers, to instruct m North Dakota common schools, is not @ violation of the constitution, even though they may wear distinctive garbs of their religious orders, the state supreme court held Thursday. The high court upheld the Stark county district court in a suit brought by taxpayers of the Gladstone school district against members of the school’ board of the district. Si : The taxpayers sought to enjoin the school board from paying salaries of four nuns employed as teachers. They also sought an injunction preventing the nuns from wearing their religious garb while teaching and to require the school board to prohibit teachers from wearing any religious garb or other similar insignia. the injunction and ruled for the de- fendants. The taxpayers appealed. Up to School Directors “Employment as teachers in the common schools of North Dakota of nuns, members of a religious society of the Roman Cathlic church, who are duly qualified as teachers under the laws of the state, is not violative of sections 147 or 152 of the atate con- stitution,” the high court stated. “What particular teachers of those who possess the legal qualifications to teach shall be employed is a matter for the directors of the school dis- trict to determine and is not ordinar- ily a matter for Judicial consideration. “The fact that a teacher in the pub- lic schools of the state, who is a mem- ber of a religious order, wears the habit of the order while engaged in teaching and contributes a portion of her earnings to the order, standing alone. cannot be said to make the school a sectarian school, to remove the school from the absolute control of the state or to place the schools under sectarian control,” the court ruled. In other states, the court's opinion Pointed out, laws have been passed regulating the type of dress teachers must wear. Kept to Line of Duty * “In this case,” the court stated, “there is no evidence that any of the teachers departed in any manner from their line of duty and gave or sought to give instruction in religi- ous or sectarian subjects, or that they conducted themselves or attempted to conduct any religious exercises, or that they sought to impress their own religious beliefs while acting as teach- ers, “So far as the record discloses they were subject to and obeyed aii orders of the county superintendent of @ |schools and of the state superintend- ent of instruction.” Agreeing that wearing of the par- ticular garb did not constitute con- version of ® public school into a sect- arian establishment, the court said: “Whether it is wise or unwise to regulate the style of dress to be worn by teachers in our public schools or to inhibit the wearing of dress or in- signia indicating religious belief is not @ matter for the courts to determine.” Townsend Weekly’s Ads Cause Laughter . Washington, April 2.—(7)—An as- sertion—immediately denied—that 99 per cent of the advertising in the Townsend National Weekly was of products for the “treatment of the ills of the aged,” was made Thursday before a house investigating commit- tee. . Robert E. Clemens, resigned nation- al secretary of the Townsend old age pension organization, denied the “99 per cent” statement by James R. Sullivan, committee counsel, but did agree the paper carried “some patent medicine advertising.” Sullivan read to the high amuse- ment of the committee and specta- tors a series of advertisements from the Townsend weekly which made claims to remarkable cures, Fargo Ranks High in Savings Bonds Sales Fargo, N.

Farmers and ranchers in the west- ern counties dug it in chunks to warm their homes and shacks, but commer- ; cial production was negligible. Now all that's changed. Lignite mining today is a $2,400,000 industry in North Dakota and, next to agriculture, probably is the most widespread endeavor in the state. Each year more than 1,800,000 tons of the soft combustible literally is sliced from the surface of the ground. Through the workable months of the year 357 mines are in operation, Tired ..

Company Comes in Truck All of King Arthur's court—his Knights of the Round Table, their horses, a score of native princesses, @ host of wicked knights, the court magicians and all the court furni- ture and surrounding landscapes, to Say nothing of five grown up mod- ern young men and women, arrived in Bismarck Thursday in one truck. The Sarg marionettes have been mot- orized for ease of transportation and are for the second season making @ trans-continental tour in a truck. Bismarck will have an opportunity to see the famous story in its first puppet version, Each marionette was designed by Sarg himself, who also designed all the scenic effects and Properties and whose ingenuity is re- sponsible for reproduction of the “magic” which played so large a part in Merrie England in the 14th cen- tury and which furnishes much of the thrill and mystery of the Mark Twain story. The introduction of Yankee tele- phones and automobiles into the 14th century atmosphere to rescue the heroes, punish the villains and bring the traditional happy ending is the cause of some of the funniest comedy the Sarg marinettes ever have pro- jected. Required Long Labor Sarg spent many months perfect- ing designs for the marionettes used, studying histories, old paintings and drawings and doing weeks of re- search into the customs, manners and dress of the period portrayed. It requires four acts and 13 scenes for the marionettes to tell Mark Twain's story of the Connecticut ad- venturer. There are dozens of puppets in the production, operated by pup- peteers personally trained by Mr. Sarg. Sponsoring the perfomances is the Bismarck chapter, American Associa- tion of University Women, which met with such success with “Faust, the Wicked Magician” last year that it was decided to bring a second Sarg offering, Popular prices are being charged so that the educational and amusing entertainment will be avatl- able to a large number. There are no reserved seats. —_—_______+ | Car Theft Foiled | By Lack of Fuel ‘i, If Ray Gobel, 423 Fourth &t., had purchased gasoline for his automobile before going to the meat market Thursday morning he probably would be without a car today, Parking his car in front of the Town Talk cafe about 11 a. m., he pocketed the ignition key and went shopping. When he came back his car was gone. A waitress in the cafe told him @ heavyset man in leather jacket and puttees had asked whose car was standing in front. She told him she didn’t know, then watch- ed the stranger climb into Gobel’s car, fiddle under the dashboard and drive away. Within a half hour, Bismarck police found the gas-less car park- ed within four blocks of the cafe. “Whew,” said Gobel, “And I al- most had ‘er filled up before go- ing for the meat!” The car is the property of Go- bel’s mother, Mrs. E.
