Plan Calls for Air. Also Submarine Bases; Funds for Roads, AirfieIds 10 Be Asked; Mail Service Exlen- sion Requested; Full Control of Fisheries, Fur. Game; Trap Elimination Up as k Fishing by Jap- anese in Coastal Waters of Norih|and

WASHINGTON. Jan. 16.--Alaska Delegate Anthony J. Dimond today outlined a legislative program for Alaska, embracing establishment of naval bases and greater measure of home rule.
 Dimond said the bases proposed were a vital part of the national de. ferse program.
 T have introduced a bill author- izing establishment of naval bases in Alaska and calling for an ap- propriation of $10o,000, 900 therefor. The plan is in line with Admiral Hepburn's report calling for air bases at Sitka and Kodiak and sub- marine bases at Kodiak and Una- laska. Funds for at least the Sitka and Kodiak stations will be appro- priated this session."
 Delegates Program
 Delegate Dimond outlined his proc gram as follows:
 T am working to secure appro- priations for roads, air fields and air navigation facilities in Alaska and for extension of airmail within the Territory.
 "Airmail between Seattle and Juneau was authorized last session and an appropriation made to put it in operation, but the service has not been started because of the lack of air navigation facilities. Tiloso are now being installed
 T seek extension of the airmai1 service from Juneau along the coast to Cordova, Valdez, Seward and Anchorage, and thence into the In- terior to Fairbanks, Nome and Bethel.
 T am advised the Civil Aeronau- tics Authority is in sympathy with air transportation development in Alaska.
 For Aviation Needs
 At least 5000, ,000 is needed im- mediately for air field and air navigation facilities, aside from army air bases and the proposed navy bases or stations. Extension of the Alaska road system is also needed. At least $2.- 100000 should be appropriated for that purpose.
 Every effort is being made for construction of the British Colum-
