Plan International Route Tapping
Fertile Territories in Northwest
Road Would Link

By ARTHUR DUNCAN
International Illustrated New* Writer
SEATTLE, Wash. — Current
,ians for an international highway
from Seattle, Wash., to Fairbanks,
Alaska, promise to open up vast
tracts of rich territory in British
Columbia and the Yukon which
have hitherto been unproductive
because of transportation diffi
culties.
Alaskans are naturally most
enthusiastic about the road and
are ma king a concerted effort to

such ^ objective would be ne go

a road which would tap

lands, stimulate

resources of the country along the
; way. At the present time there is
no overland route from Alaska to
the outside world. It is because of
Alaska’s dependence on the coastal
steamers and packet service that
those in the northernmost U. S.
possession are especially anxious to
ma ke the International highway a
reality.
As now proposed, the road would
have Seattle as its southern ter
minal, running from there almost
due north through Vancouver,
B. C., thence in an approximately
straight line to Prince George, fol
lowing the present Caribou Trail
which is an improved road now
passable at nearly all times of

At Prince George the highway
would swing westward and north-
