WHITMAN TO URGE
PASSAGE OF LAW

Senator W. S. Whitman of Grand
Forks will leave tonight for st. Paul
to urge speedy passage by the Min
nesota legislature of a bridge bill
similar to that enacted in North Da-
kota.
Senator, Whitman pointed out to-
day hat April 1 was the last day on
which bills might. be introduced to
he Gopher solons without the unani-
nous consent of the senate, and that
quick action was therefore necessary.
No ruling on the proposed bill has
seen made as yet by the attorney gen.
.ral of Minnesota as far as Senator
Whitman is aware.

Relatives Hare.
Choice of Ei1Ql
Burial Ground
Bodies of Fallen Soldiers May be
Inferred AT Homo or Abroad, Ac-
cording to Latest Plans of War De-
partmcnt.

The local home service bureau of
the Red Cross has just been supplied
with plank cards which have been is
sued by the war department in regard
to ,the final disposition of the bodies
of men who have died in service
aboard. The cards are drawn up
with a view to ascertaining the wishes
of the relatives of the fallen soldiers,
as to where final interment shall be
made.
The original. plan of the war de-
partment was to have the bodies re-
moved to this country and given over
to the neares relative for final
burial. but due to a great number of
requests that the bodies be allowed to
remain where they now are, the
choice of three alternatives will be
given in the matter. The bodies may
be left on foreign soil, they may be
returned to this country and be
placed in a national burial ground or
they may be given owe to the rela-
tives for interment in the family
cemetery. The cards which the Home
Service bureau now has, when filled
out will be forwarded to the depart
ment office in Washington, in charge
of this matter.
A bill is now before congress by
"rA, pio' Aotolas VIII We mace LOT eS-
tablishing a "Field of Honor" abroad,
which will be cared for by the Unit
ed States government. In regard to
the burial of the soldiers in France,
Marshal Petain, has advised the
United States war department, that
France would be most happy and
proud to retain the bodies Of the
American soldiers who have fallen on
her SOIL" The local Home Service
bureau also reminds the relatives of
dead soldiers, that all expenses con-
nected with the return of the bodies
to this country, and the intermen,
either in a national or private GENE.

FIRE PREVENTION.

Little Falls, Mimi, has a fire war
den who means business when it
comes to fire prevention He has been
making personal investigations to
find out where inf1ammable rubbish
has been allowed to collect and has
issued warnings to property holders
that they must clean up at once. A
law not very carefully observed by
the public forbids owners to dur p
refuse outside buildings even on their
own property. There will be no fur
ther warnings, ays the fire warden.
Early arrests viii follow failure to
clean up.
Special safety exits and fire es-
capes on buildings make it possible
today for human beings to escape un-
injured from burning buildings. There
is one thing better than escape fr I
burning buildings. There is one
. thing better hean escape from| a
fire, and that is prevention of the fire
in the first place.
: Office buildings, schools, apartment
houses and other structures in big
cities are now built freproof. There
are chemical devices for putting out
small local fires in building as soon
as they are discovered. But buildings
in the small town are not SO we'll pro-
tected.
Rubbish is allowed to collect in al
leys and in vacant lots, in yards back
of public buildings and private houses.
Rickety old sheds and plies of refuse
are as real a menace to the town as
they ever were to the big city in
former days. Perhaps the danger is
even greater, for the fire extinguishing
apparatt of the small locality is not
so effective.
1t would be good plan to look to
back alleys, store rooms and base
ments before fall. Clean out the
waste paper and rags, provide safe
containers for such things or remove
them entirely. Teach caution and
fire prevention to old and young alike.
Enforce the fire laws already in ex-
istence, and if there are no satisfac-
tory laws. see to it that some are
passed before the season for artificial
heat and light returns.

A USEFUL ARMY.

Discussing the new army program
with the senate committee on mill
tary affairs, Secretary Of War Baker
remarked:
II believe that the people are go
ing to insist on having an army moro
useful than heretofore. A good deal
of the time of the army in the past
was spent in unproductiye idleness.
The country will not stand for :ha.
sort of thing. and the soldiers wi.
not stand for it,
Precisely SO! Particularly if tn"
United tSates is to have a standing
army of half a million men or more.
No considerable body of Americans
ever wanted to spend their time un-
productivity, and there is less incii-
nation in that direction now than
there has been for m~ny years
An army is meant primarily to
fight. But when there happens to be
no fighting to do, why merely march
up, and down, or loaf il: barracks
Soldiers, as Secretary Baker suggests,
soon weary of that, and the public
does not like to pay for it.
Much has been accomplished OF
late in the way of using soldiers
spare time for educational purposes

HOME RULE FOR KOREANS.

=
Most of the recent discussion OF
Japanese affairs has involved criti-
cal references as to the tyrannical way
in which Japan has treated the Ko-
-eans, since she annexed that coun-
try a few years ago The japanese
government has now formally an
nounced an entirely new policy. cal
culated to, change the status of Ko-
rea from that of a subject province
to that of a governing, equal
member of the japanese Empire.
It is stated tina. the military gov
ernment Of Korea has been displaced
by civil one, and system of mu-
nicipal government based on popu-
lar suffrage is to be installed. Ko-
reans are to have the same privil-
eyes and legal rights as the Japa-
nese. The latter have been here
tofore a privileged class.
These reforms, if carried out in the
spirit of the proclamation, will go
far toward restoring American conf
dence in the geod faith of the Japa-
nese government, and its understand
ing of modern democracy. The an
nouncement makes more creditable
Japan's promises OF good intent re-
garding the Shantung peninsula.

AN AUTO WRECK
Touring Car Smashed at Sumter
Street Crossing

Z While going north on Sumter ST.,
on Saturday night, car which was
driven by Mr.. Bill Miller of this city
was completely torn up by being
struck by freight car on the Sum-
ter Street crossing. Mr.. Miller says
that there was neither. fagman nor
light at the crossing and that he
was unaware Of the car until it struck
the auto. The automobile, which was
Mr.. Miller's was carried about so
yards up the track and knocked to
one side. The car had four occu-
pants, but very fortunately only one
was seriously injured. Mr.. Walter
Jennings had his leg broken and heel
mashed, beside being considerably
bruised. He is doing very nicely to-
day, according to the report.
The freight car was so close upon
the auto when seen that it made it
almost impossible to avoid the acci-
dent either by jumping out of the
auto or speeding up.
Mr.. Miller has not decided just
what action he will take in the mat
