Plan International Route Tapping Fertile Territories in Northwest Road Would Link Seattle and Fairbanks 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 -ake it an actuaHty at the earliest P ossible date. First ste P toward such ^ objective would be ne go wUh Canada rrr: agreement oeeween me rr ™ tions M regaraa sharing of costs and right-of-way privileges. Prog re ss has already been made along this j ine and a tentative route charted by engineers.

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 year, At Prince George the highway would swing westward and north- 1 er) 1 y , to -xT,., White Horse.
