IRON ROYALTIES TAX PASSED
Measure Goes to Preus After SO to IS
Favorable Vote.

The bill to impose 6 per cent tax
on royalties from the lease of iron ore
lands was passed by the senate, 3S to
25. The bill introduced by Represen-
tative C. NJ Bendixen, was passed by
the house several weeks ago, 1O3 to
16. 1t now goes to the governor.
The house passed the bill with prac-
tically no opposition, but in the SEN
ate Senators T. L. Thwing, A. j.
Rockne and George H. Sullivan ex-
pressed their opinions that the meas
ure would not be effective inasmuch
as so per cent Of the royalties from
iron ore lands go to persons outside
the state, and since the royalties do
not becom. taxable until actually paid
to the recipient, there is no legal ma
chinery for collecting the money. Be-
sides, they argued, there is a grave
question of constitutionality, since
royalties are defined as rent and rent,
being an income, cannot be taxable as
such.

Salvation Army Bills Comforting Add
tionaI Rights Approved.


The House of Representatives passed
three children's bills sponsored by
the four women members, Mesdames
Kempfer, Paige, Hough and Miss Cain,
and fourth bill introduced by Repre-
sentatiyes MacLean, Starkey Wash
burn, Paige and Cain. The first three
bills, introduced at the request Of the
Salvation Army, provide for inherit
ance by and from illegitimate children
as though they were legitimate; give
illegitimate children the same rights
as legitimate children in the probate
courts, and authorize the use of the
fathers surname as the surname of
the child when the court is convinced
of the identity of the father.
The fourth bill amends the law pro-
viding for the support of dependent
children in their own homes from
state and county funds by requiring
the county attorneys in the smaller
counties to investigate application for
allowance from the county, and adding
to the information to be required by
the court as to whether there has been
for three months a warrant outstand-
ing for the arrest of the father for the
abandonment of the child. This is a
substitute for the present require
ment that the court ascertain wheth
, er the father has for one year been
under indictment for abandonment
Another me- provision requires an an
swer to the question as to whether
there are children in the family over
16 years of age who may contribute
to the support of the family.

HOUSE ASSENTS TO BUDGET
Appropriation Group Asks Increased
Funds for State Aid.

st. Paul-The house without a muir
muir of dissent passed the appropria-
tions committees educational budget
carrying a demand for $19,942, 100 for
the common schools and higher insti-
tutions of learning during the next
two years. OF this total amount, how
ever, S1,376,49 is to make up deficit
in the school aid appropriations for
the two years ending June 80 next.
The last appropriation was short.
The bill allows for state aid to
grade and high schools of $1i,116,50O,
as compared with S7,101,S75 allowed
in 1921, which was the all-important
item from the viewpoint of the aver
age member.
Another item increasing the total
of the educational budget is the ST.
054, 1000 appropriated to replace the
main buildings at Winona and Man
kato teachers colleges, which burned
last year.

REVISE HIGHWAY CODE
Section Providing State Patrols for
Traffic is Struck Out.

st. Paul-The Minnesota senate
passed the bill revising traffic regula-
tons on the public highways.
The house several days ago spent
considerable time amending the bill,
and then killed it. After the senate
got through amending the bill, it con-
sented to pass it by vote of 43 to 8,
and the bill now will be sent to the
house, where another attempt will be
made to get favorable consideration.
The senate struck out the section of
the bill allowing patrolmen of the
highway department to be designated
as traffic officers for the enforcement
of traffic regulations on the high
ways. Senator A. o. Devoid and 9TH
ers raised the objection that this was
the opening wedge for a state constab-
ulary, and this was sufficient to defeat
this provision.
The bill contains a number OF
changes in the present regulations.
Among other things, it reduces the
weight of a vehicle permitted from
$4,000 pounds to $4,000 pounds, ex-
cept on a special permit of the high
way commissioner. An exception was
made in the case of gasoline and
steam tractors used for threshing and
road work, which will be permitted on
the highways up to $4,000 pounds in
weight.
Another amendment adopted allows
the highway commissioner TO grant
permits for heavy trucks up to $4,000
pounds in weight during the life of
trucks now in use where they are used
for hauling heavy materials that can
not be handled so easily in smaller
loads

ACCEDED TO CHANGES
Senate Repasses Appropriation Bill
Providing Use of SO, 100000.

ST. Paul-The Senate repassed the
board of control appropriation bill,
adopting the report of a conference
committee which ironed out differ
ences with the House.
The Senate acceded to most of the
changes made by the House, most OF
them slight alterations. The total
carried by the bill for the tiennium
as repassed is $S,2OO,OOO, which is
$4,000 less than the amount in the
bill when it originally passed the
Senate.
The total amount appropriated for
the state institutions is somewhat
larger than two years ago due to the
increase in the number of inmates in
many of the institutions.

Crusaders Would Restore
Ancient Spirit to
Modern Life.

KS LONDON, Feb. IA strange sec
ret society known as the Order Of
the Crusader, which seems to blend
with an antique ritual certain points
of resemblance of the Ku Kll1x
Khan and the Fascist of Italy, is
springing up in England
According to a member Of the
order 1t was founded two years ago.
During the last two months it has
been conducting an intensive cam.
paign for membership. and while
it refuses to divulge the number of
it's members, it claims to have them
in every section of Great Britain.
The avowed object of the society is
to bring back the spirit of the
Crusader to everyday life.e Z
Meetings of the order are held
behind closed doors. On ceremonial
in a striking garb. Officers wear
crimson robes, with a large white
cross on the left side. and the other
members adopt a black gown, with
white surplice over it, on the
breast of which is a red cross.
Some of the emblems Of the order
are suggestive of a different pur-
pose. however In the ritual sword
is carried to symbolic service"
spurs are worn to represent "chiv-
airy" and loyalty" is expressed by
carrying banners.
The literature of the order states
that it aims at forming ''in every
ward of each town and in every
large village a conclave of Cru
saders, composed of real leaders Of
public opinion in the locality"
Later on they intend ito get Cru
saders into Parliament, on county
and local councils, in the churches
and out of them"
The initiation of candidates, as re-
CARDS time, place and ceremony,
closely resembles the Ku Klux Khan.
When each candidate is initiated
he is expected to make a donation
of two pounds or more, there being
no limit, to be used by the officials
