AIR LINES TO. CONNECT
RUSSIA WITH CAPITALS
Italy and Germany Get Start
:. on Competitor. in Rush for
Russian Business
By Henry Wood

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
Rome, July 3-Italy, Germany,
France and England have entered
into a keen competition for proceed
ence in the opening Of aerial routes
and communications with Russia.
Without awaiting the re-establish-
ment of diplomatic relations and al
though pledged not to enter into
seperate agreements with the Sow
lets until after the Hague confer
ence, they have already mapped out
and secured permission for the es-
tablishment of at least half dozen
great information aerial lines that
will link up the principal Russian
centers with all the big western
European capitals. j..
\ Although these aerial lines are be-
ing established ostensibly for com
mercial purposes, no secret is made
of the fact that the real motive back
of their construction is that Of Sc
curing political prestige and advan-
tages in Russia. 4 '....'
|. To date; Italy and Germany, by
reason of the fact that they have
commercial agreements with the Sow
lets which permit Of, direct relations
and open negotiations, are admitted
in on the ground floor. Both Eng
land and France, however, are lit
tie behind them in developing their
own basis of aerial communications
with Russia. II W. il
The lines which Italy will lay will
be in full conformity with her avow-
ed policy Of commercial penetration
in southern. Russia. Negotiations
are now under way both between the
Italian and Soviet governments and
Italian airplane firms for the open
ing of Rome-Odessa-Bakou route.
Two lines will be established, one

GOVERNMENT ENGINEERS
MAP OUT ROAD SYSTEM
System Far Superior to Any in
World Is Being Planned;
to Cover 10000 Miles
(By United Press)

Washington, July "a system
Of highways that will serve the whole
country and will be far superior to
any in the world is being mapped
out by the federal and state govern
ment engineers. 1t is estimated
that the system will comprise 1870,
900 miles Of road.
The federal highway act, recently
enacted specifically states that all
federal aid will be spent on con-
Meeting system of highways consist
ing of not more than 7 per cent of
the total road mileage in the state
and that this SYSTEM shall consist of
interstate or primary roads and in
tercounty or secondary roads.
Proposed systems have been re-
ceived by the Bureau of Public
Roads of United States Department
Of Agriculture from all but eight
states. They are plotted on large
square map of the United States and
carefully examined as to the co-or-
dination with the roads of adjacent
states and service to all sections OF
the county. Where coordination IS
not satisfactory conferences are
held with all interested state high
way officials and routes are adjust
cd.
Many states have already adj ust-
ed difficult problems with their
neighbors. As an example, the sys-
tenn sent by Nebraska showed big
gap in an important road along the
northern border. 1t was learned,
however, that South Dakota would
follow with system that. would fit
like pictures on a toy block. Since
the federal highway act of last Nov
erber became law, only roads GER
tain to &c on the system have been
approved for construction.

HOME DEMONSTRATION
AGENT TO WORK HERE
Beltrami, koochiching, Hub
bard, Itasca Counties Employ
Community Worker

A joint County Home Demonstra-
ton Agent has been employed by
the four counties Of Beltrami,
koochiching, Hubbard and Itasca,
through the united efforts Of the
farm bureau of these counties CO.
operating with the state extension
division of the University of Min
nestoa. The expense is shared joint
ly by. these county farm bureaus,
each contributing $40 per month
for the work and by the state funds.
This expense to the farm bureau is
to be met by economy rather than
by additional subscription.
The work of the Home Demonstra-
ton Agent is to consist In helping
with the problems coming up on the
home side of farm life. The plan
which does this best is the so-called
project method. The project is a
definitely planned course of study
in five lessons, one lesson being
given each month for five months
in any one community. There are
three special projects to be worked
on this year, clothing, nutrition, and
home management. The Home Dem
onstration Agents time is to be
equally divided between the four
counties one week a month being
spent in each of the counties with
the exception of one office day per
week which will be in Bemldji. Be-
midi has been selected as head
quarters because it is most central
ly located and is most convenient.
Each of the counties is to have
organized communities to carry on
the work. The communities to be
reached first will be those which
can be reached during the summer
months more easily than in the
winter when roads are impossible.
The second groups of communities
will have work started in Decem-
Der, lasting over period of five
months. 1t will be necessary there
fore to leave for the second series
those which can be reached more
easily by railroad.\
