READY TO START ON .

Work Upon Line Financed BY
American Money In Human
and Kwangsi Provinces
CBy The Associated Press1

PEKING, December 20-Work will
begin at once upon the railway which
the American international Corpora
ton IS to finance in Human and kwang-
81 provinces. Through an agreement be-
tween the Chinese government and the
American contractors a route originally
agreed upon for this line is TO be some
what modified. The railway will start
from Chuchow in Human province.
CbuchOw is the southern terminus of a
railway (which now extends south from
Chang ,sha, the capital of Human prov
nre. The line to be built by Amerl'
cans will extend south, through Heng'
chuwfu, and from that point will run
southwest to Kweilin, then southwest
to Manning ON the West River. A spur
of the railroad will extend to Yanchow,
in Kwangtung province, port of con
Gulf Of Tongking.
The extension of this railway to the
sea makes it of far greater Importance
than the original line which was to
have Manning as its terminus.
At Ghuchow the railway will connect
with an important line the English have
partially constructed towards the east
which viii eventually be extended tC
Marking. The British line taps II very
rich mineral section, and the line which
the Americans are to build also run,
