that he is Egypt's first independent
native ruler since Cleopatra, who
defeated Mark Antony with her
wiles and Julius Caesar with her
army. Many Egyptians believe the
Pharaohs have sent a message to
King Farouk and his people pre-
ordaining a glorious reign.
This belief was confirmed" by
the discovery on October 20, 1886,
of the great STEELE (gravestone) of
Amenhotep II, who is now alleged
to have assembled the throne of
Egypt on his eighteenth birthday in
1447 B. c. Egyptian columnists have
taken this as an almost unbeliev-
able omen of good will for Farouk.
What thousands of Wafdists are
now wondering is whether King Fa-
rouk will continue to parallel the il
lustrious Amenhotep's career by es-
tablishing autocratic rule. What
Great Britain wonders is whether
the crafty Mussolini has been edu-
eating Farouk along Italian Fascist
lines. Certainly II Duce has been
extending his sway throughout
North Africa; possibly he also has
ambitions in Egypt. Recent events
bear out this belief.
The Nahas Blueshirts.
When Farouk came to power his
premier was Ali Maher Pasha, anti
Wafdist royal advisor of the late
King Fuad. The Wafdists were
happy when Ali Maher was showed
into the senate, giving the strongly
democratic Premier Mustafa Nahas
Pasha a likely monopoly on royal
advice. But a few weeks ago Ali
Maher was removed from the SEN
ate and again named royal advisor.

pro-Farouk student groups in the
streets of Cairo in protest of the
move. 1t was the kings first down.

royal romance resulted from a
childhood friendship between Fari-
da and Farouk's four sisters. Early
last year when the royal family
visited Switzerland they took the

Actually, King Farouk will not be
eighteen until February II. But he
is already more than six feet tall.
Egyptian press agents claim he has
"a finely trained mind, strong
and stalwart physique"
Like monarchs of old, Farouk has
been trained from birth to the ardu-
Gus duties of kingship. His child
hood, although happy, was not as
carefree as that of children born to
a less exalted destiny. He was
taught the necessity of punctilious
courtesy, to bow acknowledgements
and return salutes, all a part of
the burden of responsibility which
was destined to fall on his Shout

PATULLO ARDENT ADVOCATE
 BUILDING NTERNAT'L ROAD

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Ways and means for securing funds for con struction of the proposed highway to connect Alaska with the north western part of the United States, was the chief subject of an informal conference held on April 21 and at tended by Secretary Iekes, Prime Minister Patullo and his secretary, AIr Hethey, of British Columbia, Senators Schwellenbach of Washing ton, and Pope of Idaho, Representa- tfves Magnuson and Wallgren of Washington, and Cartwright of Ok lahoma, Second Assistant Postmast- CT General Harllee Branch, pr. Err nest Gruening and Paul W. Gordon of the Department of the Interior, and Delegate Dimond of Alaska.
 The Prime Minister is an ardent advocate of the highway, which would be constructed through Brit 3sa Columbia and part of Yukon Territory and believes that the cost of building the proposed 1900 miles of I6 foot wide graveled road would be repaid many times over in the benefits that would accrue to his Province and to Yukon Territory Benefits that would be reflected in the betterment of the entire Dom- inion-but he made it plain that as 2 provincial project the construction was simply impossible of undertak- ing at this time because of the need fo, the limited money now avail able to take care of urgent present requirements of the Province.

Iokes Favors Highway

Secretary Ickes, too, is strongly in favor of building the road, and his presence at the meeting was partie- ularly gratifying to all interested because of the large mileage of road already constructed Tn Alaska which is under his departmental supervi- sion and that will eventually be con nected with this contemplated link of the International Highway.
 Representative Cartwright's re- marks showed that hls interest in the project has never lessened since it was brought officially to his at tention as Chairman of the house Committee on Roads, which in 1885 considered and made favorable re- port on the legislation sponsored in Congress by Senator Schwellenbach and Delegate Dimond which author ized and requested the President to negotiate with the Canadian Gov ernment for the survey and con struction of the highway to Alaska. It was under authority of this Act that the subject was taken up through the State Department with officials of the Dominion of Canada at Ottawa two years ago, but without reaching any agreement to date on account of the fact that no suitable way was found to finan the construc- tion of that part of the road that would be built in Canada.

Delegate Dimond said that he believed it very pos sible that even though no certain clear answer for the problem of fi- nancing the highway was conceived that good would result from the meeting which will expedite the ey- entual arrangements for construc- tion.
