ROAD SERVICE OF T. X.
HIGHWAY WILL BE MOST
COMPLETE EVER FURNISHED
Tourist to be Provided with Every Pos
sible Need in the Way of In
formation and Service.

Plans of the International office Of
the Theodore Roosevelt International
Highway are being rapidly whipped in
to shape and before the touring season
opens, a service that will be equalled
by no other transcontinental highway
will have been established for the n
venience of the tourist traveller. Real
izing that the comfort and convenience
of the tourist is one of the most i'm
portant features of the Association,
as effort has been made to provide the
tourist with every possible need in the
way of information and service.
There would be a complete log of
the Highway from Portland, Maine,
to as far west as the Rockies, showing
every mile of road construction and
what effect weather conditions will
have on the road bed. 1t will show
whether the road is hard surfaced,
gravel, clay, or dirt, and the mileage.
The Association will also provide a
list of all the hotels, summer resorts,
garages, likes, recreation centers,
camping sites, along the Highway. 1t
will furnish the tourist with detailed
information of every city, town and
village through which he may pass

tention of the Association to be in a
position to provide the tourist with
any information he may require, and
have it accurate.
This detailed information will be
available at every service station or
information bureau, in every city,
town or village in the state or division
through which the T. R. l. Highway
passes. The International office will
also have a duplicate service of each
state from which information can be
furnished of, and for any section of
the highway.
1t is also the intention of the Inter-
national office to have maps printed
of the different state divisions of the
highway which will contain detailed in
formation for the use of the tourist
while enroute, including the road log
for thrat section and other interesting
information. These will be for general
distribution. General information will
also be available in the large cities
tributary to the t. R. l. highway where
the tourist can obtain whatever infor-
nation he needs before starting out.
Other plans of the International or
%ganization for the next two monts in
Jude the peffectlng OF the OrganlZa-
ton in the three western states of
Idaho, Washington and Oregon. With
he intimation of the early construction
of the highway drought Glacier Ma
tional park, the need of this organiza-
ton has become imperative and steps
will be taken at once to bring this
about.
At the present time the highway
is marked from Portland, Maine, to as
far west as the Rockies, with the ex-
ception of a few miles in Ontario and
Michigan. This, however, will be at
tended to this spring, which will give
the T. R. l.. highway a completely
marked trail through ten states. The
marking in the three western states
will be marked as soon as the organi-
cation is completed.

Wish Harding Well.

George White, chairman of the dem
ocratic national committee, expressed
the sentiments of a great majority OF
his party when he said he hoped above
all things that President Warren G,
Harding may prove equal to the vast
demands which will be made upon him
and succeed in solving the intricate
problems which will face him immedi-
ately upon his accession to the presi-
dency. For this reason, Chairman
White is not in favor of OF organizing
the democrats just now for the pur-
pose of harassing the incoming ad-
ministration. A policy of watchful
waiting rather commcnds itself to the
democratic leader. If the new admin
~iStration makes good, so much the bet
ter for the country. If it fails, then
it will become the duty of the demo
cratic party to wage a vigorous op-
position NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Democrat

also, there is correct Interpretation of
the will of the people, for the says:
Il speak for administrative eff
fciency, for lightened tax bur-
dens, for sound commercial prac-
tees, for adequate credit facili-
ties. for sympathetic concern for
all agricultural problems, for the
commission of unnecessary inter-
ference of government with bust
ness, and for more efficient bust
ness in government administra-
ton"
Public confidence has been greatly
strengthened by the inauguration of a
chief executive who recognizes his po-
sition as one of service, not of mas
terry, and who proposes that the gov
eminent shall encourage, not usurp
the activities of private enterprise.
March 4th witnessed the dawn of a
new era in American political and

Mr.. Harding's Salary.

President-eiect Harding has in
formed Congressman Longworth of
Ohio that he does not seek exemption
Of his salary as president from the
operations of the income tax law. If
the law remains as it is he will be re-
quired to pay $4,000, which is a very
substantial reduction from his COM
pensation of $4,000. Mr.. Wilson was
excused from such tax inasmuch as he
was in the White House at the time
the income tax law was enacted, and
under the constitution, it could not OPP
crate to reduce his salary while office.
1t is understood the views of Mr.. Hard
ing were sought by the ways and
committee of the house as a
guide to their action. But the fact
that the president-elect does not ask
for an exemption should not blind the
eyes of congress to the justice of
granting it. 1t is manifestly unfair
to force Mr.. Harding to accept a re-
duction in salary amounting to almost
% per cent below the compensation
paid to Mr., Wilson.-Great Falls
Leader.

No Revolutions Here.

Happily it is within the nature of
the American people to accept changes
in the political complexion of the gov
eminent without revolution. This is
the great redeeming characteristic of
the American nation and it's inhabit-
ants. When the people have expressed
their will in a majority expression, it
becomes the law, unwritten, to accept
it without question. The graceful
yielding of the people to the expressed
will of the majority constitutes the
strength of the nation. 1t is the foun.
dation upon which the government is
built.-Miles City Star.

Secretary of State.

Mr.. Hughes, next secretary of state,
has not listed his name with Washing
ton. Lincoln or Roosevelt, but history
gives him notable company. His is a
great office, and great men have filled
it in the past, the rolls bearing names
more impressive, from a purely intel
lectual standpoint, than the list of
presidents. There are to be found the
names of Jay and Marshall, Webster
and Clay, Blaine, Olney and Hay, Root
and Knox. All this is without counting
the secretaries of state who later be-
came Decentralization Madison,
Monroe. John Quincy Adams, Van Bu-
ren and Buchanan.-Billings Gazette.

The following is taken from the
monthly bulletin of the T. R. l., High
way Association:
Newspapers are realizing the value
of the Theodore Roosevelt Interna-
tional Highway to their communities
and are devoting more and more space
to publicity of its development. One
paper in Montana, the Glasgow Cour-
Ter, has opened a department carrying
a synopsis of the activities of the T.
R. 1. Highway association. Many
other newspapers are liberal in this
respect, but we will have to take our
hat off to the Glasgow Courier.

That there are vast possibilities for

room for exercise. His assignment to
the commerce department may at once

PROGRESS MADE TOWARD
A NAVAL AGREEMENT

Washington, Nov 21.-(By The A. P)
There was strong indication today that
definite progress toward an agreement
on American proposals for naval re-
duction and limitation was being made,
although no definite action was taken.
The Big Three" of the arms limitation
conference, Secretary Hughes, Arthur ].
Balfour and Admiral kato. met in Mr..
Hughes office. Each was aided by the
chief naval experts of each power, but
so far as could be learned the discussion
did not get beyond further talk over fig
ures as to tonnage and other matters in
the American plan.
American naval opinion does not
easily accept any suggestions that ad-
ditionaI ships to those proposed in Mr..
Hpghes plan be retained by any pow
err That was based on the fleets as
, they were November II as the zero
hour for application of a cut and the
decade of no building. The Japanese
contend. it is understood, that the bat
tleshp Mutsu, proposed to be scrapped,
was actually so nearly a finished ship on
that date that she should be retained. In
this event it seems highly probable the
United States would retain one or more
of the new battleships now afioat, but
which has offered to scrap. The point
has not been threshed out as yet by the
experts, however, nor has Japan definite
/ ly committed herself, it is held to the
| 'fve-fve-three'' replacemer: ratio.
Consideration by the committee of
naval experts of the broad question of
naval ratios. is said to have been led
to the conclusion by some that the root
of the problem lies in the determination
| of types of ships to be included in the
calculation of existing naval strength.
In placing her argument for a revision
| of the "5-5-3" standing Japan is un-
derstood to have suggested that pre-.
dreadnaughts, super-dreadnaughts ant
/ subsequent types should be included IT
the estimates of existing strength. bu
that ships under construction should no
be considered. Under this contention, the
Japanese battleship Mutsu would be in
cluded as a "compIeted' naval unit a!
of the date OF comparison.
The naval committee was understood t.
have today before it a plan for determ
inging aggregate existing tonnage of tn
United Statess given as 100, the averag
tonnage under the several groupings o
Great Britain was figured at 147.7 an
of Japan 7G.5. In the grouping which in
cluded pre- and super -drea dnaugtts as
well as ships under construction, the es
Inmates before the committee were sal
to have shown standing of 106 pel
cent. for Great Britain and 67 for Japa1
10 100 for the United States, and on
basis of super drea dnaughts alone Grea
