sons' and directs that the bases be established in six general locations for definite purposes of special training in each location-that in Alas ka being "for training under conditions of extreme cold it is generally conceded that the locations will be deter mined with a view to their strategic position in time of war. This is substantiated by the following conditions enu- merated for the Secretary of War to consider in selecting the bases:
 First. The station shall be suitably located to form the nucleus of the setup for con- centrations of General Head quarters Air Force units in war and to permit, in peace, training and effective plann ing, by responsible personnel in each strategic area, for the utilization and expansion, in war, of commercial, munich pal and private flying install lations.
 Second. In each strategic area deemed necessary, there shall be provided adequate storage facilities for muni- tions and other essentials to facilitate effective movements concentrations, maintenance, and operations of the Gener- al Headquarters Air Force in peace and in war.
 Third. The stations and de pots shall be located with a view to affording the maxi mum warning against sur prise attack by enemy aircraft

upon our own aviation and its essential installations, consist ent with maintaining, in con nection with existing or con- templated additional landing fields, the full power of the General Headquarters Air Force for such close and dist ant operations over land and sea as may be required in the defense of the continental Un tied States and in the defense and reinforcement of our ov- erseas possessions and hold ings.
 The Secretary of War is further authorized and dir ected to construct, install, and equip, or complete the construction, installation, and equipment, inclusive of bomb proof protection as required, at each of said stations and de pots, such buildings and util- ities, technical buildings and utilities, landing fields and mats, and all utilities and ap- performances thereto, ammun- ition storage, fuel and oil stor age and distribution systems therefor, roads, walks, aprons docks, runWays, sewers, wat CT, power, station and aero- drome lighting, telephone and signal communications, and other essentials, including the necessary grading and re- moval of existing structures and installations.

 The bill introduced by Del egate Dimond a few weeks ago to strengthen the posi- ton of the Washington-Alas- ka Military Cable and Tele- graph System in Alaska by authorizing the system to use the receipts of its services and thus reduce the nominal cost of it's operation has been re- ported adversely by the Sec retary of War as not being in harmony with the plans of the Bureau of the Budget. This report practically eliminates any possibility of the bill re- celVlng favorable conSldera- tion at the present time.
 The President signed H R 7022, August l2 enacting into public law the bill authoriz- ing and directing the Secre- tary of War to determine in all strategic areas of the Un- ited States, including those o1 Alaska, the location of essen. tial permanent Air Corps sta. tions and depots.

The Secretary of War is further authorized to acquire by gift, purchase, lease, or otherwise, at such locations as may be desirable, such bombing and machine-gun ranges as may be required for the proper practice and training of tact ical units.'
 In connection with the sel- ection of the locations for the six air bases authorized by the Act, it is generally believed that the location of the base in Alaska will be one of the two first locations to be de- termined by the Secretary. Immediate action is anticipat- ed in view of the fact that the Secretary of War appointed a commission of five officers to investigate the localities avail able for air bases, within AS hours after the Act was ap-I proved.
