Passed bill requiring teachers

the House, but it was lost in the
confusion incident to the closing

not become a law at this time.
No changes were made in the
State Soldiers Preference Law, nor
was any action taken on the So
called Peddlers License as it af-
fects veterans.
Thus, it will be seen that the dis

VETERAN LEGISLATION.

During the recent. session of the
Minnesota Legislature, the follow
ing legislation Endorsed by the
American Legion was enacted into
law, largely thru the efforts of Ray
Rossberg Of Crookston, Legion
Legislative Committee Chairman,
assisted by Legionaires who are
members of the state legislature.
$S50,000 was appropriated to
finish cash bonus payments, and the
bonus was made payable to aliens
who by no overt act sought to
avoid service, other than the claim
made on their Huestionaires. In
the case of deceased veterans, re-
gardless of whether they died dur
ing service or after discharge, the
bonus is made payable to the
widow, if single; or if none, to the
children under Is years; or if none,
to the mother; or if none to the
father. However, the Minnesota
bonus is not payable to Minnesota
residents who served in any army
other than that of the United
States. Application blanks may be
secured from American Legion, Old
Capitol, or from Bonus Board,
State Capitol, St. Paul. Payments
will begin about July LIST. Claims
heretofore reviewed unless hereto
for rejected by the Bonus Board
of Review, in which case they will
not be considered again.
Funds were appropriated to con-
tinue payment of tuition allowance
under the original bonus act. This
gives the veteran the option of
cash bonus or 5000. free tuition in
any recognized Minnesota school or
college. Even if cash bonus is
less than 5000, veteran may select
the, latter. If his cash bonus is
more than 5000. he can take all in
cash, or he may take $500. in tut
ton and the balance in cash. The
tuition department is located in
The State Capitol, st. Paul.
A Minnesota Soldiers Welfare
Bureau was provided for, to adju-
cate the claims of veterans and see
that they receive proper treatment.
This is done without expense to the
state, by diverting certain unused
federal funds for this purpose. The
Soldiers Welfare Bureau will be
part of the State Board Control.
An amendment to the Rural
Credits Law was passed, which al
lows all soldiers who are taking
vocational training courses in agri-
culture and are residents of Min
nesota, to borrow $4,000 or less
upon real estate, the sum to be
based on not over 500 of the value
of the land and not over 62 2-3%
of the value of the improvements

ONE AUTOMOBILE
FOR EVERY SIX.
MINNESOTA MOTOR VEHICLE
TOTAL EXCEEDED IN ONLY
TWELVE STATES.

An automobile for every six men,
women and children in the state
enough for the first time to lake
the whole population riding at once
that is the ratio in Minnesota,
based on figures just made public
by the National Chamber of Com
merce, New York City. Another
showing is that although auto,
mobile owners are paying more and
more taxes their return in road I'M
provements is not keeping up with
the increasing use of motor ven
icles.
Minnesota last : year registered
3SO,557 automobiles and trucks,
1892 for each 1000 population or
one machine for every 6.3 persons,
the complete tabulation shows. Its
gain of 57,0S2 cars was exceeded In
only nine other states, and but
twelve states now have larger num-
bers of cars and trucks.
New York with 1,002,293 motor
vehicles had the largest number.
California with 861,S07 claimed
the largest number per capita-3.S
for each 1000 population. Nevada
registrations of 1915 were the
smallest.
The use of trucks by Minnesota
farmers is already extensive and
fast increasing, the manual shows.
A 1922 survey in 3S counties with
8O,O21 farms showed 1895 trucks,
also 81 counties reporting need for
more and 80 preference for and
2 ton trucks.
During 1922 in Minnesota $4,000
children were transported to school
at public expense and 10000 n 315
consolidated schools rode in BUSES
on good roads.
This state listed 81 cities and
towns maintaining free tourist camp
sites with many more in prospect
this year. Minnesota in fifth place
was topped by California with 1913,
Illinois with 113 and Iowa with ITO
free camps.
National forests were visited last
year by 5,356y000 people of whom
3,692,920 travelled over the high
ways. National forests in MIME
sofa had $4,000 visitors including
$4,000 automobile tourists, accord
ing to the manual.

WORLDS GREATEST CAPITAL
NEWS IN THE MINER.

The City of Washington, the cap
ital of the United States, since it
was first planned in 1871 by Pierce
Charles L'Infant, French engineer
who served in the Revolutionary
War, has maintained a steady
growth as a beautiful city, but a
more important development as a
center of world influence and
affairs.
Every American who has not
done so should visit Washington.
1t is a patriotic duty. Where not
possible to make personal acquaint-
ance with this most famous capital,
however, reading will afford more
or less familiarity with the city, its
institutions and personages.
In line with this idea, The Miner
publishes each week an interesting
department pertaining to Washing
ton and its affairs which gives in
formation not usually contained in
the Geographic news of the day.
1t will well repay reading each
