" A UK A IN NEED
OF INLAND ROAD
Greatest need of Alaska in the
or .- nt emergency is an inland
ah way over which trucks can
‘ran port supplies, in the opin
: n of Navy S are ary Knox’s sc"
. r ccrr'spo"dent. Robert Casey
.\h visit'd in Sautheastem Al
as!* a rcctn'ly.
He talke l with Alaska-=
i round Jureau and Sitka and
{gathered frem 'hem and It:
study of shipping fig res that big
gest danger to Alaska is intcr
f r nee with th ■ n* v men.t of
boa* oper* *;-g let ween the St at
es and the Territ try. The fear is
expres" d that A’askans might
find it difficult to feed themselves
if anything happened to the sup
oly line. Ho found that Alaskans
in the Southeast were more f
fu! of such an occurrence than
they were of bombing from a :
raiders.
He points out that a highway
connecting the Territory with
Canada and the States would
make it possible to cope with
any food emergency that might
result from submarine operations
in coastal waters.

i ence of a secret havy weapon for

The device has been in use for
some time, according to the best
available information, but has
been a carefully guarded secret. ,
Word of its existence leaked
out in connection with the cam
paign for recruiting radio tech-1,
i nieians. Even so, navy office’s
declined official discussion of it.

FSKIMO YOUTHS
AT LADD FIELD
Ten young Eskimos from Point
liarrcw who volunteered for ser
vice in the armed forces of the
United States are now at Ladd
Field undergoing training, their
first contact with civilization.
The lads are crack shots with
rifles and have many times dem
onstrated they can hit >a two
inch bull’s eye at 75 yards. They
can run all day beside a dog
sled. They can travel al day on
snowshoes. They are skilled in
the unse of knives. And they
should be helpful to the military
in furnishing information rela
tive to conditions in the Arctic
regions.
Before they left Point Barrow,
the boys had a great time. They
marched around the village in
groups. They held classes in the
manner and customs of the white ■
man and were envied by all the
other Eskimos in the village.
Now the lads are soldiers . . .
and quite happy over the out
look. They are certain to give a
good account of themselves re-j
gardless of where they are or
what they are doing.
