EXCLUSIVE USE OF
ENGLISH IS URGED
STATE SAFETY BOARD ASKS THAT
MINNESOTA SCHOOLS TEACH
NATIONAL LANGUAGE.
TO SELL ORE UNDER LAKE
Negotiations Opened by State Officials
to Dispose of Deposits Under
Lake Syracuse, Near
Aurora. eLi

The exclusive use of the English
language in all public and private
schools in Minnesota is urged as a
patriotic duty of school ficials in a
resolution adopted by the Minnesota
Public Safety commission and made
public by Commissioner c. w. Ames,
to whom it was referred for revision.
Foreign languages are to be prohib-
tied except as medium for the study
of those languages. themselves or for
religious instruction.
The Public Safety commission took
up the subject first on a complaint
that private school in Dodge county
was giving instruction in German
exclusively. c. G. Schulz, state SUI
perintendent of education, was re-
quested ito investigate, and the reso-
luton is the result of recommends
lions by Commissioner Ames based
on findings in the survey. The COM
mission previously inquired into the
suitability of various German text
books used in Minnesota schools, with
the result that large number were
reported undesirable.
To Sell State Iron Ore.
Negotiations for the ircn ore under
Syracuse lake, near Aurora, estimated
at 100000 tons, which will bring the
state $1,500,000 in royalties, have been
opened by Fred B. Snyder of Mime
apolis, representing mining COM
pany, with Governor Burnquist, State
Auditor Preus and Attorney General
Smith, as representatives of the
state.
The offer to purchase the ore un-
der Lake Syracuse is the first made
under the new law providing machin-
to which is held to be in the state.
The law fixes minimum royalty of
SO cents against the 25-cent minimum
that obtains in most iron mine con-
tracts now affecting state property.
The state officials agreed that F
A. Wildes of the state mining depart
ment will make an immediate inves-
, tigation and report. Arrangements
for sale by competitive bidding will
be perfected at another meeting.
Board Clashes With Rhinow.
a clash between state draft ofIl
Gals and District Board No. 8, st.
Paul. over exemptions for about $50
men in the new Second Minnesota
Field artillery regiment and steps to-
ward the removal of the Ramsey
county local board, White Bear, have
been made public at the office of Ad-
jutant General Rhinow at the Capitol.
Inclined to believe that enlistment
in the Second artillery should entitle
man to draft exemption, especially
after the new regiment was granted
Federal recognition, state draft Off
Gals appealed to authorities at Wash
ington for a reversal of ruling to the
contrary.
A telegram from Provost Marshal
General Crowder was interpreted to
authorize such exemption for the
present, but the st. Paul district
board rejected the construction placed
on the message.
Major w. A. Curtis, chief draft aide
to General Rhinow, then announced
that local boards would be- requested
to reopen each of the ESQ cases hing
ing on the question, to remove juris.
