There is virtually no doubt, he said,
of its approval by Washington

there would be no Administration

The House Committee on Terri

other leaders interested in Alaskan
affairs, he said, have made up their
minds as to what Should be done.
They are waiting for the President
to give the word to go ahead but
President Harding, he added, is I'M
decided. Governor Bone, said Col.
Steese, was urgent that something
be done and had several conferences
with the President. rhe prospects,
according to Colonel Steese, were so

would be able to make the Alaskan
Trip this summer that it seemed
probable that no action would be
taken until after that time.
