——————— NEW YORK TO RUSSIA'S CAPITAL BY RAIL, IS CAPITALIST SCHEM (By United Press) .Winnipeg, June 14.—A through railway route from the United States to, Petrograd by way of Canada. This ambition of United . States {capitalists has been outlined in & lengthy report to the ‘Winnipeg Grain Exchange. The scheme has been considered for some time and negotiations with the railways and governments which will be involved in the project will be opened in the near, future. Increased transportation to the westward without running the risk of submarines sinking ships, and as-{ G eistance in the war for Russia with munitions and food will result if the proposed connection is established. --The plan provides for a standard railway _line, conn%flng United States roads through British, Colum- tia and Alaske with Behring strait end a line from the Siberian coast to the Trans-Siberian: railway. Large ferries would carry freight and passenger cars across the 56- mile wide strait. . L & Negotiations have .been opened with the Russian %overnmgnt to im- prove the Trans-Siberian railway in- to a modern road instead of.a primi- tive - stretch of track overburdened by war transportations. The United States commission to Russia . will take up that phase of the proposed line with the new Russian govern- ment. Men back of the undertaking be- lieve that within a few years an international railway will connect New York with Petrograd. They are taking into consideration the pos- sibility of the war lasting several years. The promoters of the project are satisfied that future benefits would justify the -vast financial out- lay that will be necessary. They de- clare that a few years of world’s peace would make the most import- ant railway route on earth. AIRPLANES CAN WIN WAR, IS PEARY BELIEF ‘Washington, June 14.—Rear Ad- miral Robert E. Peary told a sub- committee of the Senate military committee that the airplane was the cheapest and quickest answer to the submarine, and that if 1,000 air- planes were sent abroad they would do more to curb the submarine men- ace than anything else that could be done. “With the same concentration of effort as Von Tirpitz exerted to de- velop the submarine in Germany, I think we will have an answer to the submarine and a quick decision of} the war,”” he declared. Admiral Peary appeared in support of a bill to establish a department| of aeronautics, with a place in the cabinet. B The general opinion ambng ex- perts, he said, is that the war will be decided ie the air and that soom airplanes will be fighting in brigades of from 500 to 1,000 fiiers. 10WA WOMEN TO REGISTER Des Moines, June 14.—Registra- tion of all women in Iowa for patri- otic service will be the first step un- dertaken by the Iowa division of the women's committee of the Council of National Defence, which perfected its organization here. PASTOR GIVES PINS TO LOW-NECK DRESSED WOMEN Sioux City, Ia., June 14.—Rev. T. G. Plante, pastor of the St. Jean Baptiste Catholic church here, pass- ed among his congregation and handed common pins to each of his women parishoners who was wear- ing any but a high necked dress, suggesting that she make immediate use of the pins to conceal her ex- posed throat and bosom. Then Father Plante informed the congregation that next Sunday he will send home any women who are not dressed according to his notion of modesty. ] / FEEEEE R R R BB * * SPUR XX KK KK KX KKK KKK Henry Stechiman and son, Johnson Stechman, of Tenstrike, in company with Thomas Crocker, motored to Minneapolis last Friday in the Stech- man car.
