Alaska’s Future Seen
Washington (^P) — Secretary
of Interior Ickes said in his an
nual report that the develop
ment of Alaska is becoming in
creasingly connected with the
welfare of the whole nation He
predicted that never again will
the territory be left a “vulner
able outpost”.
The country must become
more thoroughly acquainted
with Alaska resources, which
must be inventoried and plans
made to utilise and develop
them wisely, he said. Less than
half the territory is satisfactor
ily surveyed and less than 5 per
cent is privately owned, he add
ed, and the government, as a
landlord, should find out what it
owns.
“Postwar acceleration of the
demand for land seems inevita
ble. Not only will members of
the Armed forces and civilian
construction workers become ac
quainted with the advantages of
the territory, but new road con
struction, including the Inter
national highway, has made
Alaska more accessible.”
