 The report is- -a favorable one.-
 ItA nanzt. imDnrtant conclusions, ftnm the standpoint of friends of the highway. probably are:
 l. The commission declares the highway: moject.tS bes q feasible one.
 2 The commission urges an early start -.of construction of the, Fair- banks.aD section irrespective of the highway ass ans entity.
 This last recommendation hss long heen urged by highway proponents, their argument being that building of . road from Fairbanks to Dawson would be convincing proof of the hsnefft4 uf rDad through to- the States .and vvDuld act to- hastens con struction of other sections of the roa&

THE MUKLUK TRAIL,

Tkere already is in use, cOf, course. a highway from Hazelton, British Columbia. Eight hundredsa and eighty two miles sepafate thees cities. From Hazelton to the boundary yof Yukon Territory new construction would total 52O miles. There is a road 50 miles south to Hazelton... InIY ukon Territory new construction would total 48O miles, with 5OGmiles already built. The international highway, ac- cording to presentat plans3a, would branch off the Richardson highway at McCarty. 91 miles from Fairbanks. From McCarty to the boundary is a distance of 91 miles.
 The conclusions and recommenda- tions of the commission are. gyen here for the benefit of those who may not see the report:
 1. The highway is feasible pro- ject and can be built at reasonable cost. which should not exceed $2.O0O.- 900 for the Alaska section and $12,- O00,O 900 for the Canadian section.
 2. If the project is adbpted.- the stage-eonstruction process is favored. That is to say. tn einitiaI standard should be no higher than is required for the estimated traffic, and improves ments to higher standards wou3d be made as demanded by tr4f6c rand. as funds may heeOme availhbl&.
 3. Financing is nEimAriE the re- sponsihility of eackA ofCtha nations concarned for the .sertitn ofi thesroad within its own juxisdiction,l and any departure from ttiap iirlf -shnuh be covered by inEernaeional agree ment.
