WRIT ISSUED
TO RESTORE
PHONE RATES

Better late than never. The North
Dakota supreme court today issued
an alternative writ directed to tele-
phone companies operating in North
Dakota demanding hat they restc<e
the toll rates in effect prior to Post
master General Burleson's orders, &C.
cording to dispatches received late
this afternoon from Bismarck.
Attorney General VIM. LANCER and
F. f. Packard, associate counsel,
made application for the writ, which
is ~returnable on March 10. This suit
takes place of that recently dismissed
by Judge Amidon in federal court.
North Dakota is of the last
states to adopt these as re-
CARDS the raise in toll rates ordered
by Mr.. Burleson.
City Attorney George Bangs said
this afternoon that this action is on
~ in line with the policy followed by
other states in this matter.
In January Mr.. Burleson, ordered
an increase in the toll rates. North
Dakota already has a duly authorized
rate-making body which did not sane
ito the raise. Suit was started in
the federal court to restrain the en-
forcement of Burleson's orders but
the case was dismissed by Judge Ami
don on the grounds that action could
lot be brought by the state against a
government official in the federal
court.

STATEMENT ON
R. 0. &c. MADE
BY PRES. KANE
Laws Make Provision For
Military Training at
University.

The question Of giving military
training at the university, whether 1t
is 'j%ustifiable under present circum-
stances, has come in for a good bit or
discussion in connection with the &C
ton taken by the university council
when it approved Of the establish
ment of a unit of tho r. O. T. c. at
the University of North Dakota.
The following statement in regard
to the situation was given out TINS
morning by President T. F. Kane:
THE point involved h a the la"
makes provision for military training
at the university, makes 1t incumbent
for the university to give such train
ing as long as the law is in force. IT
is deemed likely hat the people OF
the state want military training un.tl
they rule otherwise or repeal that
law.
There are two ways to look at the
question Of military training: First.
from the educational standpoint: ana
second, from the national policy
From the educational standpoint the
virtue of military training in connec-
the university s n the way of phyal-
cal benefit. A great mnny of the stu
dents who come to the university
particularly from the high schools.
need systematic training along the
lines Of their physical bearing and
carriage, involving the Importance ol
knowing how to stand, walk and car
ry themselves.
Furthermore. the whole spirit of
training on academic side Is toward
encouraging the students In i%ndcrena-
ence of Judgment, self-reliance and
personal accountability. We want n
student to become Independent to the
point that he will not accept q state
ment as nnal, even from his instruc-
tors.
Now on account OF the age at
which most students enter the uni
versity. this aim of the university Is
thought OF as meeting a need. In
der military discipline IL student
learns strict obedience to regulations.
He learns to conform to strict organi-
cation. He learns the Importance OF
doing a given thing at n given time,
1t is usually felt by educators tina
this makes for the well balanced mar
the one that has the independence OF
Judgment. self-reliance and initiative
along with n proper training which
gives an appreciation OF conformity
to the proper regulations Of organized
pociety."

Senator Borah declared that before
any action was taken it should be re-

Senator Borah said he would have
deferred his remarks until later had
it not been for an interview by
former President Taft in which Mr..
Taft asserted that the program did
not destroy the doctrines of Wash
ington or the Monroe doctrine.

clared, was not founded on fact, and
