Policemen finally were able to

A moment later, however, the
crowd broke through the ropes and
scattered over the field, presenting
major traffic problem for the
field force. Up to that time, the
crowd had been orderly, but ap-
parently sensed an impending
landing and sought better points
of vantage.
AS the plane came to a stop at
the far side of the field, it TAXED

short of the surging crowd which
promptly engulfed it. Field guards

AMERICAN LEGION

New York (FP) = Into ma

planned.
The new line would tap several
thousand acres of tillable soil and
would encourage the establishment
of new towns along the route.
The line is part of the so-called
New Rockford cutoff planned by
James ]. Hill many years ago, as
an auxiliary to the Great North
ern's main line to be available
when traffic conditions warranted.
! That line, surveys of which were
made so long ago, was to extend
from New Rockford, North Dakota
across eastern Montana to Lewis
town and give Montana a cross
state railroad through to Great
Falls via Lewistown.
This line, if built, will be the
third important project undertaken
by the Great Northern in Montana
since the world war. In 1925 the
Scobey-Opheim branch, so miles in
length, was constructed at a cost
of $1,50O,O0e. The other was the
construction of the Saco-Turnel
branch, 78 miles long, completed
last year. These two lines have

new types of pyrotechnics will be
mingled in profusion with historic
al features, comedy tableaux in
fire and flame, and many other at.
