Los Angeles, Cal, March 6-Mary P1ckford will never marry again, but will devote the remainder of her life to motion pictures, according to an interview she. gave here last night to the Los Angeles Times. This was the first statement she had made a to the press since she was granted a di- Vorce from Owen Moore, Tuesday, at Minden, Nevada.
 NI sought a divorce because wanted to be free,'' Miss Pickford said. 'tMr. Moore is a charming man and most genial-but there are many instances where even two ge- nial persons cannot agree. I went to Minden three weeks ago with mother. I had not planned to se- cure a divorce at that time. I was nervous and unable to work at tho studio and wanted a rest. While ] was there I was informed that MT Moore was not far away, working on
 location.
 Then I determined was the oppor-
 tune time. I had no knowledge be-
 forehand that MT. Moore would not
 contest the case, so I immediately se- cured lawyer and filed my com

 so. I merely wanted to be free. MT. ! Moore and I have been separated for | three years and I had wanted a di- vorce, but it was simply to avoid

"A wagon road from Alaska Railroad 1 to the Valdez Creek placer district to be subsequently, connected with Ethe Valdez-Fairbanks road" Such a i highway would have a length of 12O
 miles. This is another of the pro | iects which has already been given study by the Alaska Road Commiss l ion and a route will be cruised out
 by that organization during the pres
 ent season, according to Col Gotwals | The third project specified is
 Trails and eventually wagon roads connecting the Alaska railroad with
 the copper deposits of the Tacotna and other nearby districts. This route would open up the Iron Greet mineral deposits to exploitation where | it is now practically impossible to do even development work. It would be approximately 45 miles in length Cache Creek Extension
 The fourth and main proposal | made is "A wagon road from the Alaska Railroad to the Yentna | Cache Creek) district, to be later extended into the Kuskokwim Val ley. Active construction work or the section between the railroad and Cache Creek was launched sev- eral weeks ago by the Alaska Road Commission, having a sufficient am ount of cooperative funds to guar
 antee that the project will be car ried through to completion. This section of the project is about 45
 miles long. It will open up for devel 1 opment the vast fields of placer de
 posits on Cache and Peter creeks
 and other ground for prospecting.
 From Cache Creek to a point in the
 Kuskokwim Valley about 50 miles
 southwest of McGrath which was
 marked by the Committee as it's
 western terminal, is approximately
 150 miles. The completion of such project would open up placer fields at present almost inaccessible
 and without means of transportation
 at any time of the year.

 The recommendations of the Com. mittee do not cover by any means all of the present undertakings of the Federal road builders. The Will low Creek road, on which consider able work has been done and which is being extended this year. is not mentioned. No mention is made of the Henderson Bay project being undertaken this year by t!c Alaska Road Commission on Alaska Penin- sula. Projects under construction on Kenai Peninsula are likewise not given consideration by the Com mittee. None of the Southeastern Alaska road projects were brought to the notice of Secretary Payne. But these omissions are not to be taken to mean that there will be any let-up in this work, it is the con viction of Col. Gotwals and other road officials, both Territorial and Federal. In their opinion the Com mittee was aware of the work being done in these sections and rellzcd that it would be continued. It merely sought to enla -ge on the pro- gram as if already pNi.fS
 Juneau, To Nome
 Juneau to Nome by an sall land route may sound like fantastic dream. but glance at the map Of Alaska and the Yukon Territory on which the routes already under construction and those proposed by the Committee will indicate that tt would not be difficult of accomplish ment once the proposed program is completed. The system proposed would stretch without a break from Nome across to Ruby; from the lat ter place up the Yukon River to Panama; thence up the Panama River to Fairbanks; from there over the Richardson Highway to the Slate Creek road which is planned to ex- tend into the valley of the WLi:e River. The end of the road as shown on a map drawn up by the Committee is approximately 9 miles to the boundary of the Yukon Ter ritory. On the Canadian side until Lake Kluane is reached no road work has been done, but there is T Canadian project between White. horse and Kluane which would prob ably be extended if the Slate Creek White River road on the American side materializes It is understood that the Canadians have started road connecting with the Wells prof ect leading into Rainy Pass on the American side. Such road could and without doubt would be ex- tended to join the Kluane route The Wells project ends at Haines. From Haines south road extending to meet the Juneau-Eagle River pro ject would be easily constructed and at a comparatively low cost. Fer ries at Funter Bay and at Haines would be necessary but the entire route from Juneau into Rainy Pass would mean but about 60 miles of road not already under construction and there is only a gap of approxi- mately 9 miles not provided for on the American side west of the Yukon Territory under the Committees pro gram in order to bring about the realization of the idea as far as American road builders are con cerned.

The Black Sheep.


Then Olive loved him, because he
had bravely borne jail, and preached
his ideas from behind bars. What
would she think of him' Would not she
be disappointed in him. She could not
visualize him except as a crusader;
as a warrior for pure idealism. What
would she think of him, if she-knew
that he was running about the hills
chasing butterflies. The thought made
him smile in spite of himself. But to
leave the mines and go out with a
surveying party, was after all not leav-
ing the proletarian class. He would
still be wage slave. The idea gave
him a strange sense of satisfaction.
He had simply changed employment,
he woul simply transfer himself from
mine slavery to line slavery, that was
all-but not all, for on the line there
was a different ideology, and it was
that deology so similar to that of his
early training, that really called him in
a manner similar to that psychological
phenomenon that sends a murderer
back to the scene of his crime.
Thus mentally torn between two con-
n few steps Of his cabin door, when his
flicting emotins, he came to within
attention was arrested by the sound
Of voices from within. He listened,
some one in the cabin was reading the
Rubyiat. He was familiar with the
poem, and caught the swing of it,
"Then to the lips of this poor earthen

Why after all, should he drink Collin Is

work which he despised. Why not go
out and live at such slavery as was
at least tolerable, and where there
might be some hope of escape from the
bondage of boss and dinner pail Why
not "dring-for once dead we never
shall RETURN"
At the first sound Of the voice with.
in the cabin he had felt anger rising in
his blood, and had prepared to evict
the intruder without ceremony. But

"Ah, Love could you and I with him
conspire,
To grasp the sorry scheme of things
entire
Wouldn't we shatter it to bits and
then
Remold it nearer to the hearts de-
sire. p"
At these words the image of Olive
rose before his minds eye and with
her, rose as if in panorama the great
world wide elias war. How beautiful she
was, and how mighty it vast 1t seemed
to he part Of her, and she part of it.
To win her meant to accept his place
in the class struggle, to abandon his
place in the class struggle, would
surely mean to lose her.
Collins had told him that she was
rare jewel-that he was lucky dog
for even having the privilege of cor
responding with her. Could he afford
to lose her7 Was she not more than
all other things this world might hold
For a moment it seemed so. Then he
closed his eyes and again he saw her,
saw her in a little cottage with grape
vines trailing over the door, surround
ed by children-if he wanted to win
her doubtlessly he should be able to
give her a home. Could he win that
for her and remain in the class strug
gle. Surely he could not. Yet could he
escape that struggled She was like Col
Inns, drunk with the ideal, but unlike
Collins she was woman, physiological
ly not strong enough to withstand
years of hardship. He decided that if
he were to do justice to her he had
to work to the top Of the class war,
or out Of it. And why shouldn't he
leave it if he could. There were others
to carry on the work. One more or
less did not alter the course Of events
In the march Of human progress he, in
dividually, was less than the proverbial
drop in the bucket. No, he would leave
it and go surveying, until in the fall,
and then enter some preparatory school,
and in time meet Olive again as a.
man really worthy Of her love.
The voice within the cabin was now
quoting from a, to Jack, unknown
author:
"Filled with the pulse of an unborn
race,
Torn with worlds desire
The surging flood Of my wild young
blood
Would squench the judgment fire"
His curiosity now Thoroughly arous-
ed, he arose, crossed the road, and
opened the cabin door, where to his
absolute surprise he almost walked
right into the arms Of Rudolph, who
was standing near the door reading to
Bill Kinsey, miner, who had shown
him Jacks cabin, when he had come
to town. And as Rudolph had insisted
upon making himself at home, Bill had
