PARIS, July 25-More than 800
jeeps and United States Army staff
cars have been impounded in a two
day anti-joyriding campaign staged
by Paris and Military Police. At
least three generals cars were
whistled over to the curb to the
cheers OF unlocking GIs and ci-
villains.
The police, operating mostly on
the Champs Elysees, Place de la
Concorde and Grand Boulevard,
stopped all military cars containing
civilians-especially mademoiselles
or Army WACS, nurses or Red
Cross girls.
A car driven by a brigadier gen.
eral was stopped on the Champs
Elysees because he was accom-
panied by French girl They left
the car and walked away.
A ieep of 1t. Gen. G. H. Lee was
stopped and its driver, an air force
lieutenant, and Red Cross girl
with him were taken off by MPs to
explain things. The general was
not in the jeep.
Another of Gen. Lees cars had
been stopped the day before and a
Junior officer escorted off to explain
where he was driving alone. Unlike
other cars, generals vehicles are
not impounded, but the drivers are
required to show satisfactory evi-
dence of where they are going.
MPs are working under orders
that mademoiselles are not sup
posed to be riding around in Army
cars, and that the only authorized"
women in such vehicles would be
Army nurses in ambulances going
to or from an accident, WACS on

Facts About Alaska
Told by Glenn Beall

Illuminating facts about Alaska
were related by representative J
Glenn Bealisat recent meeting Of
the Cumberland Rotary Club.
Two outstanding ones are that
while the territory has wonderful
future, it depends less on roads than
upon anyways, and that while some
cjamor is heard about statehood TO,
il, BealI gained the impression that 2
majority Of the people there don't
want it,
Some important facts about the AL
can highway and other government
projects were obtained by the Roads
Committee Of the House Of Represent
tatiyes, Of which BealI is member,
and which made a tour Of inspection
there last month. Representative Jen-
nlngs Randolph, Of the adjoining Sec
ond West Virginia district. was an
other member OF the committee that
made the tip.
a report OF its findings for Con-
gress is to be made later.
There has been much misinforma-
ton about the Alcan highway, Beall
said in his address. 1t is 1894 miles
in length, was hurriedly pushed thru
for military necessity and 1,2OO miles
Of it lies within British Columbia. Ire
mcndous difficulties are provided by
mountainous terraine and extreme
weather conditions. The highway is
merely graded and gravel road.
Caterpillar tractors and shovels have
to be stationed at intervals for instant
repairs as stretches Of the road. orig
inally built on frosted ground, will
slide and disappear at turns Of the
weather.
Maintenance is great handicap,
and the future Of this highway faces
serious obstacles there, Beall said, es-
pecially since congressman do not feel
Ike improving It for Canada and that
country has done nothing about it.
The big reason the Alaskans do not
want statehood, BeaIl found, is that
they do not have to pay taxes now.
while they look with apprehension
upon the tax assessments such as are
naid by single counties in the average
congressional district The statehood
propaganda comes mostly from gov
eminent employees and their interested
friends.

there are mining industries, and the
hunting should attract many sports
men.
But other developments, the rep

enlargement of private enterprise on

There were four schoolrooms in this

such an extent that crocodiles were
hurled onto the right of way.
The construction firm did it's best
to take care of the workers but the
men were sick all the time. Although
the best medical facilities and doctors
were available in the firms hospital
at Candelaria, near Porto Velho, the
tropical diseases were rampant, and a
small cemetery at Candelaria, uncom-
fortably close to the hospital, filled
rapidly.
Malaria was the greatest assassin.
Yet all appropriate measures to keep
the disease under control were of little
avail. The largest order for quinine
ever given until that time-40 tons
was quickly used up. Each worker had
to take 10 grains daily-over 10000 grains
a year.

all expenses" He remained in the
jungle until 1918.
Swallowed by jungle
when we got to the site where the
earlier expedition had begun work, we
found that the jungle had completely
covered the roadbed and equipment
which had been abandoned" Mr.. Armi-
tage declared. "A small tree had started
growing in the f1ared stack of an aban-
doned locomotive. Army ants had eaten
up all the ties. There were literally
millions Of these vicious pests, each
about half an inch long. They travelled
in columns of about 10 abreast and in
long files, following that strange in
stinct which brought them their name"
One of the railroad officials told Mr..
Armitage what happened to small
animal which fell into the clutches of
group of ants near Construction Camp
No. 49, at Jaci Parana, division point.
IN few minutes" the official empha-
sized grimly, the animal was dead.
Imagine what chance a man would
have if he encountered large column
of those ants"
So rapacious were the ants that as
ties were laid for the railway. they were
as speedily covered with volcanic lava
from the vicinity to keep the ants away
while construction was in progress
When the road was finally completed,
ties had to be replaced continually after
being eaten away.
Jungle Terrors
The men were eternally bothered by
multitude of creatures, mostly re-
pulslve. There were moneys, anteaters,
jaguars, crocodiles, the oot-long, man
eating piranha fish, tapirs, armadillos,
iguana lizards, screeching parrots, big
crablike. bird-catching spiders almost
a foot in circumference, gigantic beetles
the size of a mans palm, lightning
bugs the size of his thumb, blood
sucking vampire bats with 18-inch wing
spreads. hairy indolent sloths, tremen-
dous violently colored butterflys, deadly
coral snakes and boa constructors and
anacondas which often reached 40 feet
in length.

At times the rails seemed to float, so
