MARCH OF EVENTS

Alaska Regarded Weakest , Congress May Appropriate Hemisohere Defense Point | Billion to Bolster Outpost

Special to Central Press

LV WASHINGTON The new Congress will be asked to go "all out" on fortification of Alaska, considered by mo t military men the weakest point in the Western Hemisphere defense system. The legislators will he asked to appropriate perhaps as much as

one billion dollars to make the northern outpost of the continent invulnerable to attack from over the top of the world. A bill is expected to be introduced by Reps. Charles J. Kersten (R). Wisconsin, and O. C. Fisher tD), Texas. Both are members of the House subcommittee on military appiopriations. Kersten and Fisher, on a recent inspection of the so-called Alaskan defenses, saw enough to convince them the United States too long has overlooked this pathway of invasion into the Western Hemisphere. In addition tn what they saw they w-ere told by authoritative sources

that.

Communists are infiltrating the Eskimos; Russian patrol planes fly over American bases; Russians are taking terrain photographs of the area; labor unions, dominated by Communists, will not unload American Army shipments.

No compromise on civil rights will be brooked by Mr. Truman This is the issue that spawned the States Richters However, the administration needs the votes of the southern Democrats in ing other phases of its legislative program.
