tion for our ministerial students, thus improving. their loyaity and
morate. co _

| The ‘success of the Fort Wayne congregations in a similar
venture leads us to believe that these opinions are fully justified.

“We therefore earnestly request that permission be granted to
establish such a Lutheran high school in St.Paul at the earliest
possible moment. ; : i.

Since the college has in the past, with Synod’s approval, lodged
boys in the dormitory who were not ministerial students, we as-
sume that high school boys may be so lodged as long as this does
not interfere with the housing of the ministerial students. It is our
intention to find lodging for out-of-town girls in Lutheran homes
in the city. ,

_ Under the above arrangement, salaries of additional teachers,
cost of alterations in buildings, running expenses not covered by
tuition fees, would be paid by the local congregations. The high
school would therefore cost Synod nothing. .

Since the financial responsibility for the ‘high school would
rest upon our local congregations, we should like the right to fix
tuition fees at such figures as we-find practicable. ‘

_ If Synod desires to exercise control over the proposed high
school by placing it under the supervision of its own college board,
we are ready to enter into such an arrangement.

- Since the expenses of the proposed high school are to be borne
by the congregations of St. Paul, Minneapolis, and vicinity, we
trust that Synod will find no difficulty in granting this request and
will act favorably at its 1944.convention. .
