be of great Importance to the devel-

which will attract vast capital and
promote the general welfare of the
entire northwest Pacific states locally,
and the nation in general.

linked up with these national thor
oughfares so that the heart of the state
will be only a couple of days distant
by auto travel from one end to the
other, and great good is bound to re-
