On u. S. Certificates

Fargo, N. D., Jan. 2.-(R)-Approxi-
mately SO per cent Of North Dakota
World war veterans have borrowed
the full amount available on their

0O0,0 900 has been borrowed on the pa
per from banks throughout the state.
Some $500 men were granted the
loans through the veterans bureau

2 1000 borrowed through banks. making
about so per cent Of the total OF H.
600 North Dakota men who hold the
certificates. The average certificate
is for $l.007. Many veterans had
made previous loans.
Between 40 and so requests for the

Bombay, India, Jan. 2.-(P)-There
were indications Saturday that
truce might be reached by Mahatma
Gandhi and the British government
in India to avert resumption Of the
civil disobedience campaign.
Powerful influences were at work
to persuade viceroy Lord Wilmington
to receive Gandhi without placing
any restrictions upon the matters to
be discussed. Heretofore the Viceroy
has insisted he will not permit dis
cussion of the recently enacted pro-
vincial ordinances extending the
power of local authorities to deal
with political disorders.
Many kilograms have been sent to
Lord Wilmington by business inter-
ests which feel another nationalist
campaign would precipitate a grave
economic crisis, and Sir Tel Bahadur
Sapru was active in negotiations to
prevent war.
It was Sir Tel who. as peacemaker,
saved the negotiations between Ma
llatma Gandhi and Lord Irwin, for
mer viceroy, from collapse last year
and who poured oil on the troubled
waters of the recent round-table con-
ference in London.
Gandhi, with his proverbial pa
tience, is listening to the peacemak-
ers' appeals but, because the nation
alist congress has already modified
it's forces for the renewal of the civil
disobedience campaign, the country's
fate rests with the viceroy.
It was expected India will know be-
fore the sun sinks again whether the
government is ready to stay it's hand
or Join issue with the Mahatma, who
continued calmly awaiting his arrest.
Both sides, in the meantime, were
mobilizing quickly for the struggle.
The authorities have long lists OF
Indian leaders in every district Of the
country who will be arrested as soon
as the Viceroy gives the signal.
AS in Gandhi's case, there will be
no trials. Those arrested will be in
termed after being charged with vio-
Eating special ordinances which Will
be promulgated Immediately after
the government decides to suppress
the Nationalist. The ordinances vii!
make it penal offense for anyone to
engage in the no-taX campaign, the
civil disobedience movement or the
boycott of British goods.
The present British regime plans 70
deal much more strictly with the
situation than Lord Twins govern
ment did.
Unless the decision is for peace
which is regarded as most improb-
able, the government will rule with
special ordinance which the Mahat-
ma has characterized as equivalent
to martial law.
Anticipating his arrest momertar-
lily, Gandhi has worked feverishly day
and night. He said he has been
formulating plans for struggle which
will be more bitter. and widespread
,, than the last.
He has had no sleep for 48 hours
and has prayed fervently in his tent
invoking Gods aid while his disciples
surrounded him in attitudes of adora-
ton an reverence.

SCHOOL ENROLMENT
IS GROWING IN n. D.
Both Accredited and Unaccred.
tied High Schools Are
Showing Increase

High school enrolment in North
Dakota increased 6,543 during the
last five years, according to data
compiled by the state department OF
public instruction.
EnrolmentS were investigated for
both accredited and unaccredited
schools. In accredited high schools
there was an increase Of 4,238 pupils
from 1926 to 1881. This increase in
cluded LIZA from the q high schools
accredited during the five year Pc
Rod.
In 1881 teachers salaries were in
creased $219,605 over 1925.
Since unacrredited high schools of
fer state high school examinations,
their enrollments have been deter
mined from the number of exanina-
ton papers submitted annually to the
office Of the department. of public
instruction. In 1926 there were A.
ITO papers submitted, while in 1881
there were $1,000. This was an in
crease of 25.2 per cent in the five
year period. During the same time
Is high schools that offered state
high schoAl examinations in 1926
have become accredited high schools
and no longer offer these examina-
tions
If these schools had not become &C
credited schools, they would have
submitted approximately 10,524 pa
pers annually, according to John A.
Page, director Of secondary education
for the department, this would have
made an increase of 24,354 papers in
1891 over 1926. These schools, how
ever, Page said, submitted papers in
1926 but did not submit any in 1881 !;
nevertheless, the number Of papers
submitted has increased 1880.
THE high school enrolment in
crease in rural communities has been
even more extensive than in the larger
centers," Page said.
Evidence for this is shown in the
extra number of state high school
examination papers that are submit
ted since the schools that offer these
examinations are usually In small
towns or in the open country. There
has also been considerable increase
in the number Of small schools desir-
ing to offer high school work. This
demand has been greater In the past
two years than ever before.
I'm the ten larger towns of the
state, the enrolment in the public
high schools has increased 1899 since
1926. This includes only the four
year and senior high schools and
does not include the Junior high
schools. The increase in the number
of high school pupils has been pro-
portionately greater in the western
part of the state for all types of high
schools. The added interest in high
schools over the entire state both by
farm people and town pepole is
significant and without doubt will
show beneficial results within a few
years. This increase has necessarily
increased school costs and even with
school officials attempting to reduce
costs to a minimum, the work be-
comes more difficult in the face of
increasing enrolments, The people
of North Dakota should not be
alarmed when the results that are
to be attained are considered"
