Gov Christensen Condemns
Companionate Marriages
Latest Type Hits at Very Basis of
Home Life, Chief Executive
Says

New York, Feb. 21-The com.
panionate marriage is the most
fantastic and most dangerous ex-
preston of the revolt against the
home, according to Governor Theo-
dore Christianson, of Minnesota
who addressed the National Child
Welfare conference here today.
Governor Christensen lauded
the work of the conference and
said that there are three outstand-
ing results of this activity. They
are:
First-A second understanding
of child and childhood.
Second-A deepened apprecia-
ton and re-appraisal of the home.
Third-The conception that if
we are real republic of men and
women, we must first establish a
democracy Of childhood.
In discussing the second result
of welfare activities, the governor
said that the education, economic
independence, and new freedom of
women have introduced new fac
tor into our economic and social
life.
"The home is under new strains
and stresses" he said. "It is being
tested as in a crucibIe of fire. The

Township Clerks Will
Serve Two Year Terms
New Law Provides Longer Tern
for Officers Throughout
the State -.

Township clerks in Minnesota
will be elected for two year terms
at the annual town elections to be
held March Is, instead of one year
terms as was the previous law, &C
cording to the session laws of 1927.
The new law under which the
town clerks are elected for two
year terms is found in chapter PSI
of the 1927 session laws with the
provision operative for the March
township elections of 1928. One
year later, or in March 1929,
township treasurers will also be
elected for two year terms, accord
ing to the session laws. -.
This statute makes it necessary
for township officers in preparing
ballots for use at the annual cleo
tons, to state that township clerks
are to be lected for two yeear
terms. 1t will undoubtedly make
some difference in the selection of
candidates for the office of town
ship clerks and treasurer in many
instances throughout many coun.
ties, as the two offices are con:
sidered as the most important in
local government. s 49,
