gram of development recommended by
Major General Lyle Brown, repre-
sentatives Of the Missouri River Navi-
CATION association are expected to as

ton from Kansas City to Sioux City,
a., "be vigorously pressed to compile
tion." and that a huge reservoir be
constructed at Fort Peck, Mont. The
total cost Of the development was

the lower Missouri channel sufficient
for year round navigation despite the
diversion to some 5000, 900 acres Of
government financed irrigation pro-
jects in the upper Missouri basin.

War veterans. differing sharply in
che respect from President Roose-
velt's outlined policy. apparently was

the annual convention Of the Amer
lean Legion.
Despite the presidents statement
to the Legion Monday that veterans
suffering from ailments incurred
since the war may receive fedora,
disqualification only II their local
end state communities are unable to
take care Of them. the Legion's re-
Mobilization committee approved q
plan. for hospital treatment, for ALI
ex-soldiers Of the World War. re-
gardless Of when they were incapa-
citated.
The committees report, made Mon
day night, said that disqualification
under federal government auspices
be afforded all veterans not dishon-
orably discharged who require hos
pital treatment and who are not able
to reasonably pay for their own
treatment"
The other points in the program,
which has been approved by 43 Of the
state departments, are:
Oppose Benefit Slash
THAT no war. veteran, disabled III
the line Of duty. shall suffer any
reduction of those benefits granted
such veterans as In the World War

March 20. 1888.
THAT perpetuation Of service for
all veterans properly granted such
connections under laws In existence

"That benefits provided for de-
pendents OF veterans as established

resumed and maintained as the gov
ernment's policy and that In no
event shall widows and dependent
children Of deceased war. veterans be

At the same time the committee
tabled resolutions asking an. inyesti-

Parade Starts Early
Tuesday the veterans were willing
to forget temporarily serious bust
ness and turn their attention TO
pageantry displayed In what they
hoped would Be the greatest parade
In the Legion's l5-year history.
Police were ordered to be prepared
to handle q crowd Of half q million
spectators when 10000 members. OF
the Legion march down Michigan
avenue. through Grant Park and In
to Soldiers Field, keeping step ia
the music Of $50 bands and 200 drum
corps. The starting time was fixed
ct 10 .. m.
As forerunner to Tuesdays
pageantry, the 20 and 8. playboys OF
the veterans organization. took over
Michigan avenue Monday night In
. parade OF humorous models Of the
French freight trains with the box
cars that were used to haul 20 men
or eight horses Of the American Tx
peditionary forces.
Tuesdays parade and lack Of gen
eral convention activities gave the
Legionnaires more time for the
maneuvers looking to the selection
Of one Of the seven candidates foE
the place Of National Commander
Louis A. johnson. There was some
talk that coalition candidate would
win the honor. but other repo6ts said
the hackers Of "favorite sons would

Gas Tax Funds D;verted

THE demand for lowered taxes with the func-
tons Of local governments uncurtailed has
brought about a situation which may have q
profound effect on the future development Of
the national highway system.
In many States easing the tax burden has
been obtained by diyerting funds raised from
the gasoline tax from their intended purpose to
other local uses. This raises q serious question
about the advancement Of Federal funds for
the highways.
The use of Federal funds has been justified
on the ground that broad network Of hard
surfaced roads was an essential development Of
the transportation system Of the country.
These roads were intended not for pleasure
cars alone, but for trucks engaged In inter.
state commerce as well
However the diversion Of local funds from
road work to other purposes raises the ques.
ton Of the need for such Federal system OF
roads and the Justification Of the use Of red-
eral funds within the States.
The gasoline tax Is q direct levy on the
users OF the road system and primarily Is In.
tended for the development and maintenance
Of the highways system. Just as there would
be logical complaint against the use Of nom
car owners money for road work Of benefit to
the car owner, so Is there reason to argue that
gasoline tax money should be limited to high.
way purposes.
Views much along this line were expressed
by former Assistant Secretary Of Agriculture
Dunlap In pointing to the danger of loss of
Federal aid money where the gasoline tax
money Is diverted from. road work to other
forms Of outlay of State and local govern
ments.

Balto, the Last of Nome's Dog Heroes

although 1t was almost dusk, Seppala decided
to mush on across the ice that night.
After they had reached the other side In
safety and were hurrying through the darkness
to dnd stopping place for the night. through
the darkness Seppala heard the straining Of
sledge and the snap Of dog whip. As the
teams raced past each other he caught the
words, blurred by the hood Of his parka,
Serum! Turn back!"
II was almost mile before he could bring
his team to halt and turn them to retrace
his steps. When the other team joined him,
he found that it carried the serum sent out
from Nulato to meet him. The driver told
him that word had come by telegraph from
Nome that the epidemic was increasing alarm
ingly.
Hearing this tragic news, Seppala determined
to get back across the ice-fiiled bay before q
sudden Arctic storm could break and delay him
It was already pitch-black night. but he cracked
his whip. shouting encouragement to his dogs
as they swung into lope toward home Togo.
always willing, strained forward In his harness,
and they started back with A miles of Mid
winter trail between them and shelter from
the thermometer at 80 below zero, and the
bitter wind in their faces
At o'clock in the morning they pulled into
their destination, sledge-runners creaking In
the dry, packed snow. While the dogs rested
and devoured their rations of salmon and seal
blubber, Seppala unwrapped the serum as his
nStrucuonS mad ordered. He was not surprised
to find 1t frozen, 80 he spent the rest OF the
night In an igloo. thawing it slowly before
the fire.
After giving the dogs as much rest as he
thought time could be spared for. Seppala
hitched UP again to take the trail His Eskimo
host warned him that the ice conditions on
the bay had changed already and to stay near
shore as he mushed across the ice Seppala
found when he reached Nortons Sound that
his old trail of the day before had completely
broken away and was drifting out toward the
Bering Sea, so he took the Eskimo's advice and
reached Isaacs Point in safety. With his same
team he pushed on to Cheenik. where he de-
cided that the dogs were too exhausted to 60
further, he transferred the serum to the
fresh relay team. led by BALTIC, which was watt
ing there and which carried it triumphantly
into the cheering streets of Nome, where the
populace had turned out to welcome the dog
heroes and their driver
The famous run was Togos last race and
Baltos. Togo never recovered entirely from
the strain and was given by Seppala to Mrs.
Kicker Of Poland Springs, Me-, in whose house,
hold he spent his declining years, probably
dreaming Of his past glories in the Alaskan
SHOWS. BALTIC. who was younger, went ON q
vaudeville tour and finally died March Is Of
this year In Cleveland. Ohio where old age at
last overlook the nlucky husky.
The saga Of the hero-dogs of Nome Is ended,
