REGISTRATION OF ALL
ALIENS is ORDERED
Statewide Registration of Aliens
Including Germans on Febru-
airy 90

Statewide registration of all
aliens, has been ordered by the State
Public Safety Commission, to take
place during a three-day period be-
ginning February 25. Tuesday,
February 26, will be the alien reg
istration day for Stevens county in
each township.
This order is expected to place
Minnesota second only to New York
in the matter of registration of
aliens. Action was taken on recon-
mendations from State Auditor
Preus, who will direct the work
through boards of county commits
clerks and recorders. Failure to reg
lister is to result in interment or 9TH
er punishment to be determined by
the public safety commission. The
missionaries which each alien will
be required to fill out will call for
much detailed information, not on
ly as to birth and social condition,
but also as to property holdings.
The order is issued that the gov
eminent and the loyal people of this
state shall no longer be embarrassed
by failure on the part of non-citi-
zens of this state to actively support
the state and government; that the
successful prosecution of this war
shall not be jeopardized by the &C
tive antagonism of those alien resi-
dents in this state who, while en-
joying our institutions and owning
property here, refuse to do their
share in carrying the burdens of gov
eminent. The order is issued for the
further purpose that the citizens of
other countries now at war with the
Central Powers shall not be permit
ted to secure immunity from military
service in the land of their birth by
claiming refuge in this state.
The text of the proclamation and
order of the Minnesota Public Safety
Commission setting February 25, rs
and 81 for the registration of all
aliens in the state follows:

steal giant and also very capable
mentally. A big overgrown boy and
irrepressib1y funny. He has already
received 20 dement's, but he is SO
exceptionally capable that they can
celled them all. There is also a
mighty fine young fellow from Chi
cago whom like pretty well. There
are of course a good many rough
necks, but as rule there are
mighty good bunch of follows here.
There has been very pathetic
scene enacted in my room during the
last Is minutes. Coming out here
I met fellow in Spokane with whom
1 have associated constantly until
now. He is mighty fine young
fellow, good-hearted, nervy and man
ly, but not a student. He failed i'll
engines exam. and has just been
notified that he is relieved from in
struction. He had invested all his
money in getting into this course,
and being a very popular fellow at
home, naturally his many friends are
watching his course with interest.
1t is mighty tough on him and he is
all broken up tonight. 1t almost
seems as though he should be re-
imbursed the money he has expend-
ed. We have had room together
every Saturday night and it will
seem like losing an old friend to
have him go.
II am rather troubled tonight for
the following reason. There are al
ways from to 10 men quarantined
here with the pink eye. My eyes
have been sore all day and are worse
tonight. l had the doctor treat
them this noon, but it seemed to do
no good, so I may have to spend a
week or so in the hospital. The
worst feature of this would be that
1 would lose all the friends I have
made.
''Well, I must get to work now as
1 want to go to bed early. I am be-
coming pretty good Methodist out
here as l have attended their church
twice and intend to tomorrow. 1t is
more convenient on account of its
location. The churches seem to have
a great spirit of rivalry here in de-
nominations, that was not so marked
at home"

PASSES EXAMINATIONS
In AVIATION COURSE
Two Morris Young Men Making
Good Progress in Preparation
for Flying Squad

Word from Jay J. Berkin and A.
A. Stone at Berkeley, California, is
to the effect that they are both max
ing good progress in their studies
preparatory to entering the aviation
service. This is one of the hardest
branches of the service to get into,
as it requires a great deal of study,
but these yong men are getting along
fine and expect to pass the final ex-
aminations in good shape.
In a letter from Archie Stone to
his mother he tells many interesting
experiences which he is having. He
writes as follows
exams, for F. week are over, and
all is we'll. I am sure l not only
passed but got good marks also.
Twenty-three in our squadron failed
to pass and most of them have been
DISCHARGED. I liked the course in
engines very much and am sorry
that we do not have more of it. 1t
seems real interesting to see these
wonderful engines after being used
to the common and simple types. I
wonder what Dad would think if he
were selling motors that weighed
26O pounds and would develop ITO
h. p. That is the rating of one We
have been studying. Another weighs
about 500 pounds and develops about
Ats h. p. The first one is a rotary
cylinder where the cylinders revolve
instead of the crankshaft. This en-
CINE is used on the speed scouts, Or
fighting planes. The last is the kind
used on the big triplane bombers and
freight carriers.
eve now start studying map read
ing Gall in metric system), Aids to
Flight, Aerial Observation, Cross
Country Flying, Meteorolgy, etc. 1
will be quite an accomplished wealth
er prophet when I get out of here.
I am still worrying as to getting
through, which is a good thing, 1
guess. AS you will remember, l new
er was particularly good in mathe
MATES and these next two weeks re-
qI1ire considerable amount Of
math,. SO I will have to apply myself
ever more closely I have studied
every week and since coming here,
and as a result I think my marks
average with the highest in the class
81 do not remember ever saying
anything as to the class of fellows
here. I would put the average age
at about % or %. Most of them
have not yet finished college, and on
the other hand we have several pro-
fessional men. All of them are ex-
ceptional, as for example, myself,
and all classes of mentality. I have
made several very good friends, one
of whom is particularly interesting.
I mentioned him to Mr.. Stever He
is Norman Ross, the champion speed
swimmer of the world, getting his
title in the last Olympic Games. Last
Saturday there was swimming meet
in Frisco at which he lowered his
own record for the 500 yd dash.
This was also the worlds record. He
is big good hearted boy and a ply

 : NEAR MILLION MARK
More Than 100000 Have Left,
 Baker Tells "Blue Devils"

Washington, June 11.-More than 100000 Americans have now left for France, according to an announce ment made by Secretary of War Baker in speech to the Blue Dev- 1ls' of France, who came here to aid the Third Liberty Loan and are about to return home. M. Jusser- and, the French ambassador, and Secretary Baker were speakers at the enthusiastic reception given to these French warriors on the monu- ment grounds.
 Secretary Baker, 1t is understood, had intended to withhold any an- nouncement pertaining to the num- Der of American troops in Europe for a few weeks more in order to be able to state that 100000 in round numbers had already left. He decided at the last moment apparently that yesterdays ceremony provided fit ting occasion for stating the size of the force which already had gone. MT. Bakers last official announce ment on this subject, made several weeks ago, was that 500,OO0 Ameri- cans had already left for the battle zone.
 It is known now that the number of Americans sent overseas during May was between 2OO,OOO and 250,- O00 This was partly due to the fact that the British government placed a considerable amount of tonnage at the disposal of the United States for troop transport purposes.
 The U-boats' raids off the Atlantic coast have not retarded and will not retard troop shipments, 1t is ex- plained. The flow of men and sup plies to Europe will be maintained unchecked.

Everybody Invited to "Community Sing At Walnut Hill Park.

The United Parents and Teachers association, working through a com mittee of which Mrs. J. A.

It in V1tes the city, as a unit and individ- ually, to join in listening to patriotic selections by a band and by the Lib erty orchestra, ending In choruses of vocal music by everyone present. at Walnut Hill park next Friday night. The entire program will require an hour and will begin promptly at 7:3O o'clock. The mayor will make a brief introductory address
 This novel entertainment commem- crates Flag Day, which occurs on Friday, June If, and forms as fit- ting and appropriate an observance of the day as could well be desired. It is a form of celebration in which every one, young and old, can have a part giving expression to his feelings through the words of "America".

It is democratic-a folksey, family gathering ol New bf1ta4nS people, many of whom will be breathing through their songs a. prayer for loved ones who are fighting. Those who have no such personal interest can well afford to go and add their tribute of song. The idea is one which will bear developing into a city in stitution.

NATION AGAIN FACES INDUSTRIAL RECESS
Shops May Be Closed Unless
 Fuel Is Further Conserved

Washington, June 11.-The nation faces the danger of another period of industrial idleness unless drastic measures of economy in the use of coal are adopted i1nm ediately by do- mestic consumers and the supplies to many of the less essential industries curtailed, Fuel Administrator H. A. Garfield announced late yesterday.
 The time has come, Dr. Garfield says, when the situation must be looked squarely in the face. He is unwilling to accept the responsibility of permitting the nation to take the summer conditions as a matter of course and face the consequences when industries are forced to shut down again during the winter months because of transportation congestion and inadequate coal supply.
 A definite program of conservation which will involve the curtailment of some less essential industries, Dr. Garfield feels, is imperative to the national welfare, with the wartime activities making extraordinary de- mands upon the coal production of the nation.
 No definite order was issued by pr. Garfield calling for further conser- vation by individual industries, and he made it plain that his intention was to carry out program which would cause as little industrial un- rest IS possible.
 One of the industries which has been fighting against a. drastic cur tailment order it is said, is that en- gagged in the manufa cture of pleas sure automObi The fuel adminis- tration has advocated a curtailm ent Of per cent in this direction, and 1t was intimated that drastic regula tion would be forced, not only by the inadequate coal supply, but by a shortage in steel and other materials.
 The hope was expressed, however, that some agreement could be reached with the war industries board and other government agencies which would bring about an under standing In connection with this and other industries that would make it possible to effect a, general curtail- ment on a basis which would not disrupt the financial and labor situa- ton in any community. Dr. Garfield however, believes that further delay in the adoption of a comprehensive program would be reprehensible

MARINES ATTACK AGAIN
Dig Into German Line to Depth of Thrce-Quarters of Mile On 600 Yard Front.

With the American Army in France United States Marines attacked the Germans after daybreak yesterday morning and penetrated the German lines for about two thirds of a. mile on a 600-yard front in the Belleau Wood, northwest of Chateau-Thierry. The Germans now hold only the north ern fringe of the wood.
 The Americans captured two min nenwerfer, which are the largest pieces yet taken by them. It is eX- pected that one will be sent to Wash ington and the other to Annapolis
 Major Edward D. Cole, command ing the Machine Gun Battalion, cap tured several German stra gglers in the early stages of the attack. Nu- merous machine guns, it is believed, will be rounded up in the woods.
 The 9th and 233d Regiments of In fantry, comprising what is known as the Syracuse Brigade hold the ground on the right of the Marines at the point on the front nearest Paris. This is the second time the Syracuse Bri- gade has held the point on the line nearest the capital, the former occa- sion being at the offensive, when the Allies were still falling back, and the a short time. The 23d captured ma- chine guns on June 6, while support ing the attack by the Marines.

BIGGEST FLEET IN
 HISTORY FOR us.
Merchant Marine of @,OOO,00O
 Tons DeadWeight by 1920

South Bend, Ind, June 11.-Ameri- ca in 1920 will have a merchant ma rine of 25,000,000 deadweight tons, Chairman Hurley of the shipping board declared here last night in an address giving the most complete statement of the nations shipbuilding program which has yet been made public. He was speaking to the grad uates of Notre Dame university.
 This great commerce fleet, Mir. Hurley said, the largest ever as- sembled In the history of the world and Involving the expenditure of more than s5,000, 100000, will link the United States to South and Gen. tral America by weekly steamer serv- ice, which will enable the Latin American countries to utilize their unlimited natural resources in the freest competition with other nations. It also will bridge the Pacific for the transportation of the products of Japan, Russia, China, Australia, and will continue to promote Americas & trade with Europe.
 And with it all, he added, Ameri- can ships will serve humanity loy- ally and unselfishly on the same prin- ciples of liberty and justice which brought about the establishment of this republic
 "The vast merchant fleet we are building" said MT. Hurley, must become the greatest instrument of interna tiona1 probity, honesty, and square dealing at the close of the war. It must become the vast and vital machine whereby America will prevent the oppression of the weak by the strong, the crushing of right by might"
 MT, Hurley said he and Director General Schwab of the Emergency Fleet corporation expected the ship ping output this year to exceed B. 900, 900 deadweight tons, while next year the nations tremendous new shipbuilding industry would be cap able of turning out 13,518,000 dead weight tons, more than Great Britain, heretofore the greatest builder of ships, has completed in any five years of her history.
