 Discussing the need for Alaska defense, Colonel Smith declared he felt the completion of Alaska de- fense needs essential to the defense of the nation.
 "It is necessary that the United States adequately control Alaska, ;" he said, Because it is easily de- fended by troops in possession, but it would be hard to possess should hostile forces gain foothold. Our vital needs to defend Alaska is to prevent it's use as base of opera tionS against the United States and to complete the defensive triangle of the Pacific Coast, Hawaii and the Alaska area"
