It will not be necessary to stake out a new route between Chicago and Salt Lake City. according to speakers.
 Four pioneer trails, used by 'freighters' before the days of rail ways, will form the basis of the west ern half of the proposed highway These are: The Midland trail from Denver to Salt Lake City, 535 miles; Omaha, Lincoln and Denver trans continental route 636 miles; the river-to-river read, from Davenport to Council Bluffs, Ia, 236 miles; Fri Cities Rock River road from Missis- sippi river to Chicago, 1@o miles,
