Army Tanks to Be Used to Pack F.fickigcn Snout (By Associated Press) HOUGHTON. Mich, Dec, 8. The army tank which had a big share in revolutionizing methods of warfare during the late world conflict is to find a ne wsphere of usefulness in the snowy wastes of the far northern states, according to plans of the Keweenaw County, Michigan, highway cznmission.

In Keweenaw county. It' Is proposed

to use army tanks for packing the deep snow on the public highways during the long, hard winter season. Great rollers of wooden construction have been used for years past for this

purpose, the only disadvantage being that the horses hauling the packer had to flounder and wafe through deep snow ahead of iL The tank, carrying

own motive power, will do the work much more rapidly and, because

of its strength, much better than was

possible with the rollers, the-hiliway ,

commissioners believe. ."'.

No trouble in getting the tanks oter the snow is anticipated and It 4sproposed to hare them driven by Keweenaw county young men who .were soldiers In the tank service during the great war and who are, therefore.' a customed to the ways and vagaries of the tanks in slimy mud and clay not unlike, in the difficulties provided for locomotion, the snows of . the north. Snow falls to a depth of several leet and drifts, in places, a score or mor feet in depth in the passes and along the trails of the cliffs and little mountains of Keweenaw. The government, in turning army automobile equipment over to the states that have road improvement programs, will give Michigan, it is said, several army tanks and caterpillar tractors and Keweenaw's road commission will seek one. .
