PLAN new TYPE.
Of ARMY WAR !.
VEHICLE
Ordnance Experts and Engi-
neers to Evolve Efficient
Model of Truck.
BY international News Service.

Ordnance experts and automo-
tive engineers will meet at Spring
Lake, N. j., on Wednesday, it was
announced today by the ordnance
department Of the army, for the
purpose Of endeavoring to evolve
a "cross-country. cargo-carrying
vehicle of single type" which
will be suitable for use by all
branches of the army in war time.
Need for such a vehicle, which
could be used beyond the zone of
operation of ordinary trucks, was
evidenced during the world war,
1t was stated, and for this reason,
the Society of Automotive Engi-
neers has been called into consul
tation," by the War Department.
Army officials were somewhat
reticent as to the type of vehicle in
view, but it is believed that a
hybrid carrier. in the nature of a
cross between the regulation war
time tank and a caterpiller truck
is in contemplation. Such a con-
trivance, it is held, would be able
to make good time where ground
conditions permit and at the same
time could negotiate rough coun.
try.
1.-The Ordnance Department" it
was stated, lis very much interest
ed in cooperating with the manu-
facturers of automotive material In
order to encourage development of
cross-country types of vehicles that
will be suitable for use in the army.
This particular cargo-carrying We
hicle that is intended for general
use is probably not available COM
mercially at present, but it is hoped
to stimulate interest with the ex-
pectation that there are sufficient
fields of usefulness for such types
in commercial life to warrant it's
development for quantity produc-
ton"
Many famous engineers and tech
nicians, connected with nationally
known automobile and automobile
accessory concerns will be present
at the Spring Lake conference.

BERLIN, June 1S.-The most
brazen defiance of republicanism
since the German revolution in 1918
was proclaimed today in the sew
enty-fift anniversary number Of
the Kreuse Zeitung, organ of the
German monarchist militarist fac
ton.
At the head of the first page was
a picture of the Iron Cross with
the inscription:
with God for King and Father
land"
The paper was filled with the
most reactionary editorials. The
leading editorial bore the caption:
"Our Kaiser and King is exiled;
the Old Glory-covered Prussian army
is shattered: the German nation
was disarmed when the Spirit of
the November Q910 revolution
triumphed."
The Kreuse Zeitung defended the
old monarchy with it's "strong Prus-
sia" and bitterly assailed the 80
cialist and radical disciples Of Karl
Marx" the father of modern social
ism. 1t bitterl-- bemoaned the
crowns defeat by parliamentary
politics, declaring that 'our warn

Count Westarp, formerly called

had a half page editorial in which
he lamented that 1.-The Prussian
state and German empire have lost
their liberty" Further on he said:
"Rut Kreuse Zeitung will keep up
the noble work of preaching
Kaiserism and the spirit of Potsdam
until the Prussian state and the
German empire can be reunited.

they are again led by a Prussian
King and a German kaiser from

TO BUILD LINE INTO WYOMING
 OIL FIELDS

HELENA, Mont, March 21. - Int Montana Railway Co.,, incorporated in order to construct railroad line south and west of Miles City, Mont, into the Salt Creek oil field of Wyoming, is collecting survey crew which is already working south from Miles City. The proposed route, approxi- mately 25O miles lonf, will follow either the Tongue or Powder rivers to a connection with the Chicago, Bur lington and Quincy railroad at Sheri-
 At Lewistown, Mont, opening of of fices and collection of a surveying crew has revived rumors that the Great Northern railroad contemplates further work on the route east from Lewistown surveyed before the war. From Lewistown the old survey runs east through a stretch of country ap- proximately 300 miles long and 200 miles wide which is without a rail road. At the eastern end of the pro- posed route about fifty miles of track was built several years ago which is already in operation from Sidney to Hickey. On the survey are two county seats which have no railroad, Circle and Jordan, and the Cat Creek oil field of Montana, now only tapped by a Chicago Milwaukee & St. Paul rail road branch out of Lewistown.
 Tn connection with reports of intend ed activity on the part of the Great Northern is a report that survey is partly made for another line which would leave the Lewistown-Riche route at right angles at Jordan and strike south to Miles City, on the Northern Pacific and the Chicago, Mil waukee and St. Paul lines.
 Western Montana newspapers pub fish reports that the Northern Pacific railroad is preparing to seek new route through central Idaho to Lewis ton, Idaho, and down the Snake river to connect with the present Northern Pacific line to the coast at Pasco, Wash. Such line, if built, would constitute .-a--- "cut-off which would save several hundred miles of line and many heavy grades on the present transcontinental lines.
