Through Canada to United States way, Alaska, across British Columbia to Seattle, Wash, Fairbanks, Alaska, June 24. (P— Alaskans are attempting to make one of their fondest dreams come true—a dream of a highway from Alaska to the United States. An organized movement is under way to interest the Canadian and American governments in the con- struction of approximately 1,000 miles of a proposed 1,700 mile road between Fairbanks, the “Golden Heart of Alaska,” and Seattle, ‘Wash. The estimated ~ost is $7,000,000. About 700 miles of highway along the proposed road already has been constructed. Buch a highway would be the only overland connecting link be- tween the United States and the territory. At present the only trans- portation is by steamer, although an airplane passenger and express service is expected to be started this summer. The Alaska International High- way association, sponsors of the project, believe the road would epen valuable mineral land at pres- ent tourists to visit Alaska by automo- bile. Starting at Fairbanks the road would follow the present Richard- son highway 100 miles to McCarty. From there a new route to the Ca. Inaccessible. It would enable radian line must be built. Virtu. ally all new construction would be necessary to Hazelton, some 1,000 miles from Fairbanks. From Ha- zelton the route would follow 600 miles of existing highway to Van- couver, B. C., and Seattle. Branches from the main route would be constructed to Juneau and Ketchikan on the coast of southeastern Alaska. From Fair- banks the coast can be reached over the 371-mile Richardson high- way. The proposed road gows through country where the snow fall is light and if traffic were suffi- ciently heavy it could be kept open all year. The association will ask the Ca- nadian and American governments to finance the project, each paying haf. The movement, which started here, has spread to all the larger towns of Alaska, branches of the association being formed in many places. ST, HARY' SCHOOL GVES 8 DIPLOAS Rev. M. J.

The so-called “German Dempsey"” and the Spanish woodchopper clash kee stadium on Thursday in one of the year's most important bouts. { Some of the more optimistic of fans believe that out of the bout will come the next occupant of the heavyweight throne vacated by Gene Tunney, these would-be seers are basing their belief on the theory that Schmeling will win.decisively. The Teuton sharp-shooter certainly has done everything that could be asked of him in his few appearances in America and a triumph over Paulino undoubtedly would boost him into the same class as Jack Sharkey and Jack Dempsey, the two leading con- tenders for the crown. But the catch in all this is the iron-chinned Paulino. The Basque has fought them all and never been dropped. He has lost a few decisions here and there in a majority of his appearances he has been the win- ner. There is considerable doubt in the minds of some experts whether Schmeling’s right hand can halt the ever-crowding woodchopper and whether the Teuton can withstand | Paulino’s body attack. The Paulino-Schmeling battle tops a 45-round card at the annual milk fund charity ring carnival. Otto Von Porat, bone-crashing Norwegian puncher, meets K. O. Christner of Akron, 0., another heavyweight slugger, in the ten round semi-final. Although the milk fund show over- shadows all other of the coming week's fistic shows, there are a num- ber of other first-rate attractions. George Godfrey, Young Stribling ard Johnny Risko, all leading heavy- weights, will swing into actiou. Risko meets Tuffy Griffith, the Sioux City light heavyweight, in a ten rounder at the Olympia Arena, De- troit, Thursday night. Stribling meets a rugged, if mediocre, foe In California Jack Lee at Flint, Mich, ht. Godgrey engages Chuck ns, Indianapolis veteran, in a ten rounder at Cleveland Tuesday night. Chicago's big hout of the week, the opening outdoor bout at Mills stadium on Thursday, finds Jackie Tields, N. B. A., welterweight cham- pion, battling Farmer Joe Cooper tor ten rounds or less. At Boston tonight, Gorilla Jones, Akron, and Jack McVey, New York, are to swap punches in a ten round bout at Braves field for the “negro middleweight championship.” The far west has two first rate at- tractions, Ace Hudkins takes »n Charley Belanger, Canadian light heavyweight champion, in a ten rounder at San Francisco Friday night, At Los Angeles, tomorrow, Fidel LaBarba meets Earl Mastro, Chicago bantam. Other bouts on the national sched- ule include: Tonight—at New Yok, Dexter Park, Sammy Baker, New York, vs. Georgie Levine, Brooklyn, welter- weights, ten rounds; at New York, Velodrome, Pete Nebo, Florida, ve. Willie Michel, Belgium, feather- ights, four rounds; at 8an Fran- cisco, Young Jack Thompson, Los Angeles negro, vs. Jimmy Evans, 8an Francisco, welterweights, ten rounds.

In explanation of his plan, Coun- cailman Miynarski points out that the pond has-claimed two lives re- cently and that a near fatality hap- pened last year, a coating of ice on the pond, alone, having saved a person from drowning. As a further move for the con- servation of life, the fifth ward councilman will probably move tha' orders be issued manufacturing cor- porations to build fences where their plants abut on railroads, this to prevent workers from getting onto the tracks. STRESEMANN GIVES VIGOROUS DEFENSE ON DEBT QUESTION (Continued from First Page) Frenchmen and Englishmen,” he said. “To me it seems doubtful whether all*Europe is not in danger of becoming a colony of those whd are luckier than we. The fact that the colonies sat down together to work out amelioration for each other because others did not give them amelioration—that is some. thing that cannot be removed from the history of the Paris negotia- tions." Speaks With Vigor ‘The foreign minister, despite his recent fllness, delivered his specch with ~ great vigor. He was felt in great measure to have taken the wind out of the nationalist sails, by stating unequivocally that Germany would not stand for the installation of a commission in the Rhineland as the price of its evacuation and by announcing that President Von Hindenburg, as well as the cabinet, stood pehind manifestations agalnst the treaty of Versailles scheduled for June 26, especially the clause acknowledging Germany's sole guilt for the war. Delay Is Criticized Count Westarp, in opening the de- bate, criticized the Reichstag for letting seven months pass without public discussion of foreign policy. He charged the government parties with absolutist practices in choking all debate, although the past months have been full of grave problems such as the minority question, the meeting of the reparations experts and the resignation of Dr. Albert Voegler, one of Germany's chief del- egates. Recalling the tenth anniversary of the signing of the treaty of Versailles, he attacked the social-democrat cab- inet members for the party's refusal to participate next Sunday in a dem- onstration against the treaty. Discussing the Young plan, Count Westarp asserted that Germany, in accepting the Dawes plan, had the excuse that it had been forced upon her, where as the Young plan was adopted by the experts acting as free agents. Its acceptance there- fore was far more serious. The Na- tionalists, he declared, would op- pose enslaving future generations as “contemplated by the plan.” The re- mainder of his speech was taken up with an anaylsis of Dr. Stresemann's five years' direction of foreign af- fairs, which he claimed was a com- plete failure. DOUBLE BIRTHDAY SURPRISE A surprise party was held at the home of Mr. and Mre Joseph A. Taerain of 183 Bummit street, las Saturday night. The occasion was the birthdays of Mr. and Mrs. Ta rain, which are within a week of each other. Saturday was picked as being between the two dates. Re- treshments were served and games played.

During his youth, Mr. Rawlings was a jeweler and worked for 27 vears at his trade for.the Churchiil, Lewis Co., and for Porter & Dyson Co., in the days when most of the work in fine metals was done hy hand. He still has some samples of intricate work done by him at his home. Tn 1872 he joined the volunteer | fire department and was foreman of the hook and ladder company, resigning to enter the Spanish- American war in 1898. He was ac- tive in local military circles and was first in Co. E, later Co. T of the Eirst Connecticut infantry mi- litia.

RAWLINGS MOTHER OF 6 HELD | FOR SELLING HOOCH One Child in Arms, Four Others in Court ‘ Carrying one child in her arms and trailed by four others of whom she is the mother, Mrs. Josie Swe- chawlak, 40, of 288 North street, took the witness stand in police court today and denied that she sold liquor in her home and that she had told police she was earning between $8 and $10 weekly by so doing. S8he was warned by Judge Stanley J. Tra- ceski that she must not only stop selling liquor but she must not even have any of it in her home, and if she is caught violating the law again she will be jailed and her children placed in the county home. Mrs. Swechawlak's husband is a patient in the hospital for the insane in Middletown, and she has one child in New York besides the five who were In court with her. Last night, one of the children came to Officer John Griffen on Hartford avenue and complained that there was a disturbance at home. Officer .. E. Harper happened along and both officers investigated, finding that Andrew Jacersky, 38, .of 65 Franklin street, had made the dis- turbance because of being refused admittance to Mrs. Swechawlak's tenement. On being placed under arrest ony the charge of breach of the peace, he “squealed” on the woman, telling the police he had bought liquor from her for 25 cents a drink. Questioning her, the officers obtained admission on which they based the charge of violation of the liquor law. Some of the quotations were answered in English while others necessitated the use of her boy as interpreter. SBuper- numerary Officer Meehan was pres- ent during the interrogation. The officers learned that Mrs. Swechawlak received $6 weekly from the public welfare department but it has not been sufficient, in her opinion, so she went into the busi- ness of manufacturing liquor for sale. Bhe admitted she charged 25 cents a drink, and the “still” and a quantity of liquor were taken as ev- idence. Called to the witness stand, Mrx. Swechawlak denied the allegations and claimed not to have understond what the officer meant when they asked her about the sale of liquor. Judge Traceski was not entirely sa isfied that she actually had under- stood the questions but he finally warned her to tell the truth about it, still she insistsed that she had the liquor only for the purpose of entertaining her friends. Question- ed further, she said something about getting shoes for liquor. Mrs. 8wechawlak had a 15 days suspended jail sentence hanging over her for a previous offence, but Judge Traceski remarked that it would hardly be fair to enforce it. in view of her circumstances, but he added a 30 days’ sentence and suspended it, with the warning. In the case of Jacersky. a fine of $10 and costs was imposed.

Esposito is regarded as the smart- er boxer and better ring genera: with Leto packing the harder punch. Leto, however, is not without his supporters and the wagers which have been made on the outcome of the bout are at 6 to 5 with Esposito installed as favorite. Leto's showing on his two Hart- ford appearances made him a lot of admirers here. His first local battle was against Bat Battalino. Letn failed to appear for the weighing- night. State Boxing Commissioner Toin Donahue was on the verge of calling off the show and ordering the money refunded when Leto arrived. It was the heaviest storm of the win- ter and he had been battling his way by auto through the drifts from an upstate New York town. He gou into the ring against Bat, tired and without anything to eat, but he suc- ceeded in sending Battalino to the canvas, the only time it had been done in the Hartford boy's pro career. In the later rounds, Leto could not stand Bat's terrific body attack and was loser on a technical kayo. He gave Eddie Lord a great battle and many thought him the winner, but the referee saw it other- wise. There is an attractive undercard, including a double semi-final with Eddie Reed of Hartford battling Charley Von Redden of Atlanta and Mickey Flahive of Hartford fighting Larry Roach of Newark.
