VERY LITTLE OPPOSITION
Question Upperm0st in Discussion 10
Who Will Become Premier.

Paris, Sept. 2O-Premier Alexande,
Millerand today agreed to be can
dldate for the Presidency of tho
French Republic to succeed President
Deschanel, who has rendered his res.
ignation.
NJ. Millerand's acceptance as can.
dldate for the Presidency virtually
solves the problem, as it is conceded
by all sides in the Chamber of Dcpu-
ties and Senate that his election is
foregone conclusion. He would re-
ceive more than 700 votes, no other
candidate officially entering the field
The premier's opponents have de-
clded to refrain from voting and ex-
pect TO muster about 100 ballots.
The question uppermost in the dis
cussion among the Deputies and Scna-
tors at present is the formation of
the new Cabinet to replace that
headed by M. Millerand At least two
ministers of the present body are
slated to go. M. BRAND probably will
become minister Of foreign affairs,
with NJ. Jonnart as premier EXPIRES
ldent Poincare's name has been men
toned as foreign minister in place of
Frederic Francois Marsal, although
there is strong opposition to M. Poin-
care in the Chamber, while he is pop-
ular with the Senate. NJ. Millerand's
decision came after an hours confer
enco with NJ. BRAND, who openly said
at the conclusion Of the meeting that
he was working for Millcrand and
would ask his followers to work for
him. While the premier is the almost
unanimous choice, there is strong op-
position even among his most ardent
supporters to any revision Of the Con-
stitution. The slogan at Versailles
will be:
"Elect Millerand, but don't tanner
with the Constitution.
M. Millcrand formally announced
MS candidacy in statement, rcitcrat-
ing his declared policies. He cy-
pressed his belief that he could best
serve as premier, but if Parliament
preferred him as President he would

LINCOLN HIGHWAY IS WONDER
sUnrealized Dream-Specifications
Not Decided.

Seven years ago the idea of a trans
continental highway connecting New

throughout its length and forming q
backbone for q great national system
Of arterial roads, was only dream in
the minds of few. Today the accom-
plishment of this great memorial route
stretching from ocean to ocean Is AS
sured.
The Lincoln highway breathes the
twentieth century. In years to come it
will be adorned, as were the Roman
roads, with statuary. landmarks.
homes, hotels-a panorama of the
achievements Of man. 1t will be the
path Of advancement, golden chain
linking the Atlantic to the Pacific.
The motor truck is in its infancy
and highway freight transportation as
an adjunct to the railroad is only just
beginning. But the Lincoln Highway
association feels that it is we'll within
its province to act as clearing house
for the best thought in the United
States concerning the probable require
ments of main arterial American high
ways in the next 20 years.
What will be the specifications for
this wonder road? That has not yet
been decided. The association real
ICES that it is undertaking difficult
problem, but it believes that it will
have, in solving it. not only the inter-
est and support Of. the American pub
lie, but the cooperation Of the engi-
neers and highway commissioners. and
also the best technical experts the
country affords.
Some Of the finest concrete roads OF
the country are to be found in Michi-
gan. These have standard thickness
at the sides of six and half inches.
About the best stretch of highway we
have at present is the Lincoln high
way from New York TO Philadelphia.
It is 96 miles long, and every day there
passes over it an average Of 2.OOO
tons. This road is eight inches deep
at it's center. This is the thickest
surfacing in the United States today.
Whether the show road Of the world
will be of this thickness or deeper is
under consideration. There is some
