Bridges Seeks Delay in Hearing

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 25 - Attorneys for CIO leader Harry Bridg said yesterday they will ask postponement of the second Bridges deportation hearing now schedu ed for March 31.
 One of the defense attorneys, Aubrey Grossman said that more tim is needed for preparation of the Bridges defense. It is expect ed that the hearing probably will last as long as hte 12 weeks of the first deportation proceedings in 1889.
 Th- complaint filed by United States Attorney General Robert H. Jackson charges the Austral- ian-born Bridges with having been a member of the Commun- ist party, and advocating over throw of the government of the United States.
 Dean Landis of the Harvard Law School, the special examin- CT at the first deportation hear ing found no evidence that Brid gss was a communist at the time the proceedings were started.

Mary Lee Council Secretary to Delegate Dimond
Alaska National Defense
 Air Fields

Several inquiries have come to the Delegate regarding expendi- ture of the $3,000,000 allotment for airfelds in Alaska 10 be built under the national defense pro- gram, the appropriation therefor having been made in the summer of 1940. It has been suggested that a large part of the work could be most economically done by the Alaska Road Commission because that agency has the nee esSary engineering and operating organization and is completely familiar with conditions in the Territory. Some persons have bsen concerned lest all of the work be given to some non-resi- dent contractor under a cost-plus fiXedfee arrangement similar to most of the construction con- tracts recently made by the Army.
 Recently, the Delegate had a conference with Colonel Donald H. Connally, Civil Aeronautics Administrator, and Major Lucius D. Clay, Secretary of the Selec- ton Board consisting of the Sec retaries of War, Navy and Com merce, in which ths. whole mat ter was discussed thoroughly. Ii appears that the appropriation was made for the fiscal year of 1941 only and that unless the money is actually spent or actual ly under contract before June 30 1941, any unexpended funds or balances will revert to the Treas ury and cannot be used after July l, l94l. It further appears that no contract can be given to the Alaska Road Commission and
 
 that in the event any work is done by the Alaska Road Com mission, it will be necessary for the Commission to use its own funds and be reimbursed later out of the $3,0OO,000 allotment. More over, no authority exists for mak ing any cost-plus fixed-fes con tract for doing this work.
 AS a result of the law and the time limitation for expenditure of the money or placing the work under contract, it will be neces- sary for the Civil Aeronautics Administration to let all of the work out to contract after adver- tisement to the lowest resonpon- sible bidder. Resident contractors in Alaska will have the same opportunity to bid on the various projects that any nonresident contractor will have. At Nome
The Nome nugget., 1941-02-28

and at Kotzebue, where fields are to be built or enlarged, the con- tracts will provide that the ma chinery and facilities of the Civil Aeronadtics Administration now on the ground may be used in doing the work. The plan is to call for bids and award the con- tracts at the earliest possible date so that the fields may be com pleted without delay.

COVENTRY, Eng, Nov. IA
Like Phoenix out of the ashes, the
