BIG HIGHWAY
THE WEST
HELENA. Mont.. March 12 (by As
sociated Press).—Two new highways,
one to extend north and south al
most across the western part of the
United States and the other to con
nect Great Falls and Helena through
the canyon of the Missouri river,
have been proposed by the commer
f (jjal clubs of Great Falls and this
city. While discussions thus far have
been merely tentative, it is hoped to
proceed with the preliminaries dur
ing 1920 in order to be prepared for
construction work during 1921.
The proposed north-and-south high
way is an ambitious project. It is
proposed to build an automobile road
from Banff, Lake Louise and the
Rocky Mountain parks of Canada to
Salt Lake City and probably thence
to Zion national park and the north
edge of the Grand Canyon.
As proposed, the highway would
have on its itinerary Grand Canyon.
Zion Canyon. Great Salt Lake, Yel
lowstone Park, the Lewis and Clark
national monunment, the Gate of the
Mountains. Missouri River Canyon,
the Great Falls of the Missouri. Gla
cier park. Banff, Lake Louise and
other national known scenic wonders.
It would tap the National Old Trails
road of .Southern California, the Lin
coln highway, the Pike's Peak Ocean
to-Ocean highway, the Rainbow route.
the Midland trail across the continent, |
the Yellowstone trail, the Geysers-to
Glacier trail, the Yellowstone-Glacier
Bee Line, the Wonderland trail. Cus
ter Battlefield highway, Roosevelt
Memorial highway. National Barks
highway, Central Montana highway
and other tourist routes.
The Great Falls-Helena highway
gvould be built with the idea of draw
ing together two of the larger cities
of the state which have close re
lations.
“ THE MIDNIGHT PATROL ”
IS COMING NEXT WEEK
Among the programs to be shown at
the Empress next week is “The Mid
night Patrol.” a Thomas H. Ince fea
ture that will prove of especial interest
to the theater-going public. In com
pleting this, Mr. Ince realized an am
bition of long standing—to produce a
picture that would portray the valor
and bravery of the American police
man.
The most sensational story of the
Chinese underworld ever screened,
“The Midnight Patrol” is melodrama,
but it is the sort of melodrama that
will appeal to the most conservative.
Mr. Ince spent weeks in a close study
of conditions in the Chinese quarter
of Los Angeles, and tricks, devices
and underground tunnels for which
the wily Orietal is so famous were
carefully reproduced. Treating as it
does, with a phase of police work with
which the public is entirely unfamiliar,
“The Midnight Patrol” is certain to '
prove popular with lovers of heroes j
and heroic deeds.
Watch for the announcement of its ,
booking.

| WALLACE ANSWERS FOR UNCLE SAM
Hugh C. Wallace, ambassador to
France, is much in the public eye these
days, inasmuch as he now represents
the United States in connection with
the activities of the supreme council
of the allies at Paris. For instance,
it was he who informed the council
that the United States government has
refused to accept any of the indemnity
to he paid by Germany for the de
struction of the German fleet in Scapa
Flow.
Germany, in compensation for the
4 Scapa Flow sinkings, is requested to
deliver to the allies certain inland
steamers, floating docks and tugs, and
the council had awarded 2 per cent
)»'f this material to the United States.
State department officials have
not explained the American govern
ment's objection, hut it was recalled
that American peace representative^
favored destruction of the German
ships on the ground that their division
among the other powers would make
enlarge its naval building program.
