TWO STATES PLACE
BAN UPON GERMAN
Iowa and South Dakota Forbid Use of
Language i'm Schools, Public
Meetings

Des Moines, Iowa, May 25.-English
alone may be used in Iowa schools, &C
cording to a proclamation by Cover
nor w. l.. Harding. The governor
asked public support TO enforce his
demand, also that all public converse
tions, addresses and worshipping be
conducted In English.
The proclamation. issued with the
advice of the state council of defense,
evidently was aimed at the German
language, however, il was taken at
face value-the f%orbidding of all for
eign languages in public
There has been some agitation
against Dutch, Polish, and Bohemian
used almost exclusively in some Iowa
colonies, as well as against German.
South Dakota Rule to Affect Churches
Pierre, S. D., May 25.-An order
prohibiting either the teaching or use
of the German language in public
meetings, including church services,
in the state, was issued by the State
Council of Defense this afternoon.
The council also adopted an order
covering the registration of all unem-
ployed males in the state 10
years of age, with penalties for fail
ure to register or procure employment
after such registration.
The profits on ice were fixed at ~
per cent, and prices of other products
were put up to a special committee
for conference with the federal food
administration. The Woman's Council
of Defense was recognized and pro-
vided financial assistance by the De
Tense Council.

3 CENT RAIL FARE
In EFFECT JUNE 10
Freight Rates Also Boosted One
Fourth Next Month

Washington, May Determination
today of Director General McAdoo's
order raising freight rates on a basis
OF 20 per cent and passenger fares to
three cents a mile, and abolishishing
all lower interstate freight and pas
senger rates, indicated that the aver
age increase will be higher than rs
per cent.
Many changes and establishments
xii! be made by the railroad admins
tration
This will not prevent the new rates
from going into effect, passenger
fares on June 10 and freight tariffs
on June 25, for the commission today
gave it's approval to the rate order.
This action is not intended to cut off
later complaints and hearings on
them.
State railroad or rate commissions
have no authority to change the rates,
the railroad administration holds ever
tho many provisions of the new order
more than double the charges for
short hauls within states.
Suggestions for readjustment of
rates on interstate traffic will be re-
ferred to the Interstate Commerce
commission for it's consideration in
passing on specific complaints.
State commissions may also enter
formal protests direct to the Inter
state Commerce commission
To Raise Nearly Billion
These complaints are expected to
result in hundreds of notifications
affecting specific commodities or
classes, and rates between certain
communities, but probably will not
reduce to any great extent the total
revenue to be derived from the sweep
ing increase, which is estimated at
from $500, zoe, 900 to 5000, 0OO. 900.
The higher charges must eventu-
ally be absorbed in higher prices OF
commodities, it vas noted today by
shippers interests, and this effect may
be noticed particularly for coal. brick
lumber, meats and grain. and for ma
terials shipped to market FOR only
short distance.

The Robesonian., 1918-05-23

The American Red Cross is the largest and most
efficient organization for the relief of suffering that
the World has ever seen.
Il is made up almost entirely of volunteer
workers, the higher executives being without ex-
ception accustomed to large affairs who are
in almost all giving their services without pay
i is supported entirely by its membership fees
and by voluntary contributions.
It is today bringing relief to suffering human
ity both military and civil in every W ar torn allied
country.
It plans tomorrow to help in the work of restor-
aton throughout the world
The Robesonian., 1918-05-23

1t feeds and clothes entire populations in time
of great calamity.
It is there to help your soldier boy in his time of
need.
With its thousands of workers, it's tremendous
stores and smooth running transportation facilities
it is serving Americas advance guard-and thus
helping to win the war.
Congress authorizes it.
President Wilson heads it.
The War Department audits it's accounts
Your Army, your Navy and your Allies enthu-
siastically endorse it.
Twenty two millions Americans have joined it.
The Robesonian., 1918-05-23

>HERE is only way to give to the Red Cross--gve
j till your heart says STOP little contribution is
only salve to pride.
This not to say that contributions of only dollar
or even of only nckle not desred-and needed.
For you to give SIS when you give $25-for you to
give $25 when you give $780, to give $100 when
you give $780, is dodge the heaviest obligation that
this war has laid upon you
For remember, this is NOT a charty:- --ths is a
DUTY
This is not time to give because others give. This
is a time to give because others need.
No man can tell you how much you ought to give
Except this that "Over There the need great that
only by cutting to the quick, only by giving all that you
think you give and then more-ony by giving not
little Of your excess but much Of on]y by taking from
your children and from Your wife and from yourself
can the needs Of the who fighting for you and
the needs Of the children Of the who have died for
you be met
Ask your own soul how much it should be-!
