MAJOR GENERAL MORTON
 DIsCOETIEUEs ARMY POSTS

While Che Alameda was in port Wednesday, Major General Morton, who was a passenger aboard after trip of inspection to a number Of posts i'm connection with his position as commanding officer of tho ninth army corps his headquarters being San Francisco. confirmed the report that several army posts In Alaska are to be discontinued as posts but some Of them may serve as barracks for small detachmonts
 The posts to be discontinued are Fort Gibbon. at Che confluence Of the Panama with the Yukon river; Fort St Michael. near Che mouth of Che Yukon river, and Fort Liscum. near Valdez.
 Later and when money is avail able a fort win be constructed at Anchorage for occupancy, but until It is constructed Che only fort main a.ncd in Alaska win Doe Fort Wil- liam IT. Seward. near Haines.
 The belief has frequently been eX- pressed In the past that more use of troops In Alaska would be had if they were subject to patrol duty
 something on Che same line as arc members of Che Royal Canadian Mounted Police. who. when known as Che Royal Northwest Mounted Police. did much in assisting in Che development Of Che Canadian north in Che days when patrol work was a necessity.
