SHANNON CITY, Iowa, March g.
Guy Stockdale, principal Of the Con-

ing parental reports to school author
tiles that he had taught his classes
theories of natural wedlock without
marriage ceremony.
The school board accepted the
resignation after questioning the
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES.
c. Z. Finch, chairman of the board,
said that "Mr. Stockdale was unsatis-
factory, that was ALL" He admitted,
however, that reports concerning the
teaching or mention Of wedlock with
out license was the prime cause of
the acceptance of Stockdale's resig-
nation. I'VE can make no charges,
however" he said, because there was
no investigation completed. When we
placed the complaints Of the parents
before Mr.. Stockdale he resigned"
Mr.. Finch said Mr.. Stockdale denied

In this era of near and approx

starkly emotional. Marie Millais. a
girl OF interior France is an unmar-

The play proper starts eight years
later. with the mother back in the
village of her birth as school mis-
tress and with one aim in life-to
find the grave of her dead child. Her
beauty and reserve win her only the
hatred and deadly gossip Of the vii

comes to her with an odious proposal,
hears her story and leaves as her
one friend determined to help her.
He discovers that the child is alive
and a member of the infant class the
girl is teaching in the village school.
Before he can apprise her of these
facts. however, the mother is dis
missed. The mayor interposeS. finds

L|TERACY
Law ADVOCATED
FOR TERRITORY
Independents Deny Charges
Of Disfranchisment
Explain Law.
JOHN E. PEGUES)

A fair and impartial literacy test
law, applicable alike to all voters, is
promised by the Independent Legis-
lative Candidates and supported by
T. A. Marquam, candidate for Dele
gate to Congress- The enactment of
such a law has become one of the
main issues in the campaign.
Delegate Sutherland has recognized
this fact in his various speeches
But he has opposed the passage of
a law applying to all voters and de
Tended the exemption of persons
heretofore voting. He based his po-
sition by alleging that legislation
such as is proposed by the Independ
ents would disfranchise as many
whites as it would Indians.
Is Mere Sophistry
Such a contention is mere sophis
try Basically, the literacy test law
which was blocked by the Delegates
socialist friend in Congress last
Spring, which is identical with the
bill approved by majority of Alas
kans in 1925, does not disfranchise
anyone. 1t does set standard of
educational requirements which all
citizens must meet in order to be-
come voters. And it is true that
there are more Indians who could
not meet the requirements than
there are whites, but the test in all
cases is the same-the ability to
read and write English.
The Federal census of 1920 gave
Alaska 1880 native born white
citizens of voting age. OF that num-
Der SIS, or less than one-half of one
per cent, were illiterate. There were
II ,334 foreign born whites of voting
age of which 397 were illiterate, or
three and five-tenths per cent. There
were 1924 Indians of voting age
and of that number S.434 were il
literate, or &C 1i3 per cent of the
total number.
Thus, if genuine literacy test
act were in force, 5S white persons
born in the United States of Amer
lean parentage would have been un-
able to vote in 1920. The illiterate
foreign born whites, by reason of
their ilteracy could not legally
have voted, since their lack of educa-
tional qualifications already barred
them from citizenship
Local Law inadequate
In 1926, the Alaska Legislature
enacted a law establishing literacy
test for voters of the Territory.
Against the expressed desires of a
majority of the white literate citi-
zens, it exempted persons voting
legally" at previous elections. Sec
tion of Chapter 27, Laws of Alaska,
1925, provides that If any person de-
string TO vote appears to the election
officers not to have the ability to
read and write such person
shall be required to read in
the English language, publicly
and in the presence OF the elec-
ton officers or some one OF
them, a passage of not less than
ten lines chosen at random from
the Constitution of the United
States, and to legibly write in
the English language a passage
of not fewer than twenty-five
consecutive words chosen at ran
dom from the Constitu-
tion of the United States"
Realizing that the Territorial
law did not cure the evils which had
arisen under the old law, there was
introduced a bill in Congress last
