This law requires parents to send
children between the ages of and
16 (unless child has passed eighth
grade examination) to school for the
FULL time the school is in session,
and said attendance shall begin the
first week of the school term. Any
paren or guardian or other person

years, who shall fail to comply with
the provisions of this section, shall
be deemed guilty of misdemeanor,
and upon conviction threof, shall be
fined not less than $500 nor more
than $4,000.
Statistics from the State Superin-
tendent's report shows the necessity
of enforcing the compulsory education
! law.
The statistics ON illiteracy gives
Montana's percentage of illiteracy
larger than any of her neighboring
states and over twice as large III pro-
portion as in Oregon, Washington
and Idaho. The last report stated
that Montana had 14,457 children ov-
er ten years of age who were unable
to read or write.
The data on attendance were avail
able from only 20 counties and rep
resents 1855 children, or about 8;
per cent of the children enrolled il
the schools of the state. Of thi
number 19 per cent were III schoo

COMMITTEE VOTES
FOR BIG NOTE ISSUE
Permits Glass to Issue Four
Classes, but Raises Ex-
emption to $4,000
HOUSE MAY ACT
ON BILL TO-DAY

WASHINGTON, Feb. 20.--The Ways
and Means Committee has voted TO ac-
cept the compromise between the adj
ministratlon plan TO pot into the hands
OF the Secretary OF the Treasury full
discretion in fixing the conditions IN
der which the next obligations OF the
nation TO pay war expenses should be
issued and the Congressional plan TO
hold all OF those powers In the hands
OF Congress.
Members OF the committee consis-
tently refused 10 state whether opposi-
ton TO the compromise was carried 10
the point OF votes being cast against
Tic plan. but It was declared that the
report Of the committee would be unan-
imously In favor of the plan.
This plan, calls for Issuing notes to-
falling S7,000.0O0000 instead OF Issuing
more bonds. The only change made by
the committee was TO provide that one
class OF notes be totally exempt from
taxation up TO $4,000 TO each purchaser
instead OF $4,000. as was proposed
AS the committee approved the con-
dltlons under which the notes are TO
be issued the Secretary OF the Treas
ury is left a free hand In fixing inter-
est rates on the Various kinds OF notes
which may be issued. The plan ap-
proved by the committee today will
permit the Secretary OF the Treasury
to issue notes conforming with any or
all Of the following conditions:

Committee Il is extremely doubtful II
there will be very strong opposition
from the House itself and IL Is generally
conceded that the authorization for the
notes will be forwarded 10 the Senate
soon after It is brought up In the
House.

fund for the Railroad Administration
