OPEN HEARINGS
ON RECLAMATION
BILLS OF LANE

WASHINGTON, May 2S.-Hear-
ings On legislation designed to carry
out Secretary Lanes plan of farms
for soldiers was begun today by the
House Public Lands Committee. Rep
resentative Mondell, the Republican
leader explained features of the
measure agreed on by western SEN
ators and representatives at a recent
conference with Secretary Lane.
"The bill anticipates that the Sec
retary of the Interior will secure
areas large enough for community
settlements Of considerable size in
which the community spirit may be
developed, Mr.. Mondell told the
committee,
MIR. M0ndell estimated that from
eighteen months TO three years would
be requited to get the land ready for
settlement.
TIE sale of the farms would be on
a forty year payment basis, and fl
naneial aid, for obtaining stock and
implements would be provided thru
govetntlent land banks.
The annual cost of the development
was estimated at from 100000, 900
30 81 ,150,000, 900.
SECRETARY Lane will appear before
the committee tomorrow and offici-
ais Of ,he reclamation service will be
heard later

THREE-MILE TRAIN OF TRUCKS
 WINDING ACROSS CONTINENT

Individual car owners still consider it quite a feat to cross the continent even with good hotel accommodations every night. Yet the 3,000-mile run is now being negotiated by an extra ordinary train of military trucks, that stretches out over three miles of Lin coin Highway. Standard army trucks ambulances, kitchens, anti-aircraft wagons, and searchlight carriers, to the total of 60, make up the big train. The schedule specifics not less than 75 miles a day, at about 15 miles an hour, and the crew of 200 or more men and officers will live wholly in the ve- hicles for the entire trip. Its pur- pose is to recruit for the Army Motor Transport Corps. and to demonstrate the country's need of an extensive sys- tenn of military road s and heavy bridges.

PLAN INTERNATIONAL ROAD TO
 CONNECT AMERICAS

Connecting the United States with the countries of South America by means of an improved highway for automobiles, is the plan proposed by a New Mexico man for consideration by the Pan-American Union conferen- ce, which met in Washington, D. G., recently. Such an international road, would run between Ell Paso, Tex, and Bogota, Columbia, if built according to the plan outlined by its promoter, and would pass through Mexico and the Central American republics. Work is being done at the present time on a highway between Ell Paso and Mex ico City, the federal government of Mexico and the governors of several Mexican states cooperating with Am ericans in it's construction.

Surgeon General Blue, of the Unit

a recent statement from Washington,
warns the public that the much
dreaded influenza epidemic will pro-
badly return this fall and winter. All
medical authorities agree that the
weak, bloodless, rundown individual
is more likely to contract this (as
we'll as any other infectious disease)
than is the strong, robust, red-blood-

facts, it is wise to use every effort to

Hearts Of The World

Is there theatrical producer alive
who ever spent eighteen months on
one production? Hardly. Yet this is
the amount of time and concentrated
thought David w. Griffith devoted to
the production of Hearts of the
World" which Immediately was ac-
claimed his supreme triumph of di-
rection. His background was the war
front in France. His characters were
humans in the midst of an awful
tragedy, yet he intermingled in all
the melee of gas attacks flame waves
-bombardments, and aeroplane fights
a wonderful love story that no heart
can resist.
Nobody knows how much it cost
for D. w. Griffith to film his supreme
triumph, Hearts of the World"
coming to Academy Theatre, Tues
days, October g.. Matenee and night.
and nobody seems to care. Mr.. Grif-
fifth, himself doesn't know. All he
feels about it is that the greatest am
bition of his life is realized, which is
more to him than money.
