No Portage

For Present
War Department Not TO
Use Present Funds for
Any Such Purpose
BY PATRICIA JERNBERG


WASHINGTON, June 15.-tSpec-
ial Correspondence - During the
past few weeks a number of reports
have come to the office of the Dele
gate to the effect that the War De-
partment, as part of the national
defense program, was urging the
construction of the so-called Port
age Bay cutoff to connect Mile "a
of the Alaska Railroad with Port
age Bay, which would result in the
abandonment of that part of the
railroad between Mile "a and Sew
ard.
Information now at hand indi-
Gates that, while the War Depart
ment would welcome any proper
measure leading to a reduction OF
freight rates on the Alaska Rail-
road, and while the construction of
the cutoff might have its uses for
national defense purposes in the
event that the line between Mile
"a and Seward should be temporarily
blocked, at the same time the De-
partment has no thought of using
funds under its control for the con-
struction of the cutoff.
1t is pointed out, as long as we
control the Pacific with our Navy
supplies for the Army defense posts
in Alaska can be carried through
Seward just the same as through
Portage Bay, and if we lost contro
of the Pacific for any reason, nei-
ther Seward nor Portage Bay woulo
be available for supplying the Gle.
Tense posts in Alaska. 1t seem.
clear that the element of nationa
defense which would be promoted
through the construction of TIN
Portage Bay cutoff is so Slight q
to be negligible, and that there !
no immediate or even remote pros
pect that funds for the construc
ton of the Portage Bay cutoff cal
be obtained from or through TIN

POLICE TO AID
 TAX COLLECTOR
.z,OOO Tax Bills Returned for Addresses-Gty
 Must Pay $I35,OOO

Tax Collector Humbert Mangini said today he planned to ask Police Superintendent William J. Roach for the aid of street patrolmen in locating local residents whose old age assistance tax bills have been returned by the post office. Abou: 2O0O bills mailed out in January could not be delivered, the post of- flee reporting that the addresses could T1pt be located at the addresses given.
 Under Mir. Mangini,s plan, each patrolman would attempt to locate those persons on his beat whose bills had been returned by the postal authorities. The bills mean about $6,O0O to the city, since each resident between q and 60 must pay 8.
 The tax office sent out total of 56,316 bills. Each became due TSb. 1. Payment must be made by March 1 or penalty of $1 is added to the bill.
 The city must pay $135.O0O to the state as its share of the old age as- sistance tax levied throughout the state. Last year the city had a def icit in the account, the amount cole lected not being equal to the sum assessed by the state.
 It is believed that the enumera- tors who took the old age tax cen- sus last fall may have made errors in names and addresses, but that beat patrolmen, familiar with their districts, might know the right names and addresses and deliver the bills to the proper persons.
