Revolutionary Proposal Made That
Army’s Cold Weather Laboratory
Be Built at ‘Scene of Action’ -- Alaska
WASHINGTON, <£> — Delegate^
Bartlett suggested to the chief of
Army Engineers that a proposed
I cold weather laboratory be built
j in Alaska—“at the scene of action,
j as it were.”
He made the comment in a
letter to Lt. Gen. S. D. Sturgis
Jr., suggesting that further study
be made before Congress is asked
to appropriate money for location
of the laboratory at Dartmouth
College. The center will consoli
date work now being carried on
at Wilmette, 111., and Boston.
Bartlett’s letter was in reply to
Sturgis’ comments concerning an
Anchorage Times editorial sug
gesting location of the proposed
laboratory at the University of
Alaska.
The Army Engineer chief said
the Dartmouth location was
chosen after consideration of its
accessibility to other military
agencies, to universities where
related work was being under
taken and to suitable living ac
commodations for personnel to be
employed there.
“An additional consideration,
and an important one,” he added,
“was the selection of an area to
which most of our important ex
perienced personnel, engaged in
such research at two widely sep
arated research facilities, would
be willing to move. Locations in
Alaska were considered and elim
j inated on the basis of one or more
of the above factors other than
climate.”
The delegate cited scientific
personnel located at the U. S.
Public HealJJi Service’s Arctic
Health Research Center in An
chorage, uniformed and civilian
personnel engaged in scientific
research at the medical laboratory
at Ladd Air Force Base near Fair
banks, and at the Geophysical In
stitute at the University of Alaska.
He said he was not aware of any
difficulty in recruiting employes
or that the personnel find any
thing in the climatic living con
ditions “to cause any diminish
ment of their enthusiasm for per
forming their work right there.”

Dulles Tells NATO
Cold War Is Back
After ‘Zig-Zag’
PARIS, (#>—<U.S. Secretary of
State Dulles told the NATO Coun -
cil of Ministers yesterday that the
East-West cold war is on again
after nearly a year of Soviet poli
cy zig-zagging.
Discussing the trends and mo
tives of Russian policy in 1955,
Dulles declared the new rulers of
;he Soviet Union have opened up
dangerous new cold war fronts in
the Middle East and South Asia.
He added, however, the 15-na
tion Atlantic Alliance had over
come greater dangers in the past
by remaining ever vigilant and
united.
Dulles spoke at the opening of
the first council meeting since last
summer’s Big Four summit con
ference at Geneva.
Also attending the annual year
end meeting of NATO foreign, de
fense and finance ministers were
US. Secretary Wilson and. Treas
ury Secretary Humphrey.
What, he asked, are the reasons
for this year of Soviet “zig-zag
ging?” He suggested:
1. It might be due to the ele
ment of confidence, flowing from
a belief in Russia’s increased
strength.
2. It might derive from the So
viet’s fear that new ideas would
affect the compact structure of
their system.
3. And it might be the result of
a recrudescence of Stalinism,
which he believes is by no means
dead in the Soviet Union.
