REMISSION SAYS
TRAIL Is BEING
Hit BY OFFICER
Discrimination Against
National Parks Route
Cited By Bismarck Man

In a letter that he has addressed
to the commercial clubs in cities
along the route Of the National
Parks highway in North Dakota,
Minnesota and Montana, between IT.
Paul and Miles City, Mont, c. y.
Remission, secretary Of the Bis
marck Commercial club, charges
that unfair discrimination Is being
practiced in the twin cities TO turn
tourist traffic from the National
Parks highway to the Yellowstone
trail. The National Parks, or Red
trail. runs through Fargo.
Denied Place on Program.
Mr.. Remission cites his own ex-
periences at the recent conference
in Minneapolis Of the Minnesota
Automobile association as being In
point on the subject, and he declares
that Secretary Hin deliberately pre-
vented him, Mr.. Remission, from Civ
highway question at the meeting.
Favors Organization.
Mr.. Remission insists that every
town along the National Parks high
way should organize and place in the
twin cities a representative to bring
to the highway as much traffic -
possible, to counteract the present
alleged discrimination. He would
have an independent organization in
each Of the three states, Minnesota,
North Dakota and Montana, and he
believes that proper pressure may
be brought to bear on the officers
of the Minnesota Automobile assoc
citation to the end that the National
Parks highway be given equal rec
ognition with other trails.
Clubs Will Cooperate.
In his letter, Mr.. Remission says
the st. Paul Association Of Com
merce and the Minneapolis Civic
and Commerce association are fav-
orable to equal recognition for all
trails leading into and out OF the
twin cities, and that the cooperation
Of these two bodies is assured.

BAKER TO VISIT
AMERICAN ARMY
(Rv Associated Press.l

Paris, March 13.-Newton d.
Baker, the american secretary. Of
war, yesterday met a number Of
American, English and French news
paper men and gave out the follow
ing statement concerning his visit
to France:
Our purpose in visiting France is
to confer with General Pershing, to
visit the American. sxpsditionary
force and inspect its lines of trans
portation and its storage and sup
ply systems in order that we in
America can more effectively sup
port our own army and the armies
OF our allies. ...5.
"Of course, any visit to France at
this time is pilgrimage to the very
shrine Of heroisb, and ii will be an
inspiration actually to see the great
commanders and the armies which
have so long held the frontiers of
freedom against all attacks. In
America, as in France, we have a
civilian secretary of war and civil
power is supreme. That is one Of
the characteristics OF the free in
situations which are fighting to
maintain. 4
Civil power must bring up the
supplies of organized industrial re-
sources and support its armies. In
America now the dominant thought
I'm all minds is war. Industry is or
ganized and supplies are beginning
to be produced in a satisfactory
quantity. War materials are &C.
cumulating and a great army is
completing its training to join the
force already here.
There can be but one result when
the forces of civilization in great
countries like those now allied, are
combined to defend the vital prin-
ciples of liberty. Our President has
nobly phrased the spirit in which
America entered the war, and his
subsequent declarations reflect the
feeling OF the entire country that we
are committed with all our resources
to the winning Of the war"
