HOME GUARD TO

Attempt to Legalize Will
Be Strenuously
Opposed. 4
FRAZIER'S REVENGE
Said to See Way to Rebuke
the Traducers Of
League.

Governor Frazier has made it clear
that he will oppose any legislation
which may be attempted at the special
session called for January % which
contemplates regalizing or making an
appropriation for Home Guard units -
North Dakota. ......
It is certain that legislation along
these lines will be sought by the
scores of North Dakota cities which
have organized home guard compan.
les In every state whose legislature
was still in session when war was de-
clared, legal provision was made for
state. militia or constabulary, with
view of affording domestic protec-
ton following the calling of the Ma.
tional. guard into federal service.
North Dakota's legislature had ad.
journed, and nothing of the kind could
be done here Practically every town
of 500 population or more, and many
villages of even fewer people, have
proceeded, however, to organize home
guard units, looking to the federal
government for protection should
there come up any question as to
their legality. None of these units,
until Governor Frazier declared him
self at Minot few days ago, antlcl'
pated any opposition to legislation
clearly establishing the status of these
organizations. ..
Says They're Not Needed.
Governor Frazier says he believes
military training for men of draft age
fine thing, and all of that, but ne
doesn't believe in the Home Guard;
doesn't think it is necessary, and Will
oppose any effort to establish the
Home Guard in North Dakota as q
state military body. The governor is
confident that we need no protection
here at home He expresses convlc-
ton that the l. W. w., with every
community largely deprived of it's able
bodied young citizens and with a
greater necessity for importing labor
than ever before, will change their

Thirty Germans Arrested.


This was disclosed today by govern

to give all the details surrounding q

about 30 Germans and a few Scandi.

The Germans have been ipterned, and
the Scandinavians sent out Of the
country. Some Americans are under
suspicion and are being closely

The evidence gathered indicated
that few leaders whose identity has
not been disclosed but who are be-
lieved to be neutral subjects, tried to
communicate with a number of agita-

ports, in industrial centers, and in
the extreme west to develop coopera-

Systematic Sabotage.
Sabotage was to be conducted sys-
tematically and propaganda for peace

SNOW HALTS
AUSTRO-HUN
OFFENSIVE
ASSOCIATED PRESS.)

Snow has come to the aid Of the
Italians and the Austro.German
offensive apparently has reached
a halt, if not an end. The whole
mountain front where the enemy
had been making slight but steady
gains, is buried under from three
to five feet Of snow, making in
fantry operations impossible and
hampering the Austro.German sup
ply lines sermiously.
Heavy snowfaIIs in the Alps are
reported to have blocked the EN-
emy communication system in the
Trentino and Carnia, leaving
them only two long lines across
the Venetian plains, to the Piave,
which would be of no help to the
snowbound troops between Lake
Garda and the Piave.
The hombardment on the north
ern front has slackened with the
coming Of the long expected snow
and only patrol engagements have
occurred.
On the western front, the oppos.
inq guns have been active near
the scarpa, in the Arras area;
northeast Of Ypres and northeast
of Verdun. The Germans have
failed this far to take counter
measures against the successful
French sortie in the Woevre.
