Seattle Link Seen In Alaska Road

Stumbling block at week's-end to hopes for linking existing highways north of Vancouver, B. C., to the Alaska Highway now being constructed north from Edmonton, Alta, the problem of finances.
 That such gaining momentum was ad- mitted by proponents north and south of the border but at cost of between $2500 and $30000 per mile the 250-mile link admittedly was too great burden to be borne by sparsely populated British Columbia
 Despite the cost barrier, Premier John Hart said in Victoria this week that the connecting road was in the early stages of consideration because he declared of increasing public demand Meanwhile Arthur Dixon provincial deputy minister of public works, said there were two routes by winch the Alaska Highway might be tapped. Either would enable Vancouver and Seattle bound traffic to avoid the outofthe-Way Ed montOn terminus
 First proposed route was from Prince George via Sumit Lake and Pine Pass to Dawson Creek. Alternate from Vanderhoof to Stewart Lake and Fort James Fndlay Forks and down the Peace River to Fort St. John Below Prince George, on either route traffic would use the Caribou Trail gravel road which fol- lows the Fraser River into Vancouver Original coast- a route urged by Pacific Coast and British Columbia proponents of the Alaska Highway contemplated the use of the Caribou Trail north to Fort St James.
 Since disclosure of actual construction of the "in- land" route from Edmonton Seattle business men, al armed at certain loss of large part of this citys AL aska export business preparing a campaign for U. s. funds to complete the "coastal' link Leaders of those seeking federal funds for this purpose point out that the cost of this link is insignificant compar ed to the S500000O0 purported cost of the main high way and that without such link the road is utterly valueess to the Pacific Coast.
 Foster L. McGovern, assistant manager of the Seat tie Chamber of Commerce. and Glenn Darlington, chair man of that organizations Alaska Committee are in Victoria to confer with Premier John Hart and Deputy Minister of Public Works Arthur Dixon on the pro- posal to build road from Prince George to Dawson Creek They will meet with officials of the Vancouver Board of Trade in Vancouver, B. C. and will take up the matter of the connecting highway with other British Columbia organizations.

Tungsten In Yukon

There IS more valuable metal than tungsten The Canadian government and the American govern ment need plenty of it for purposes. Every year brings the further realization that this precious metal considered more important than gold or silver may be found in abundance in the Yukon. Tungsten deposits, matter where they found, attract the eyes of mining everywhere today. Action follows almost immediately.
 Up in the Bridge country an importanant tungsten deposit was located only year ago. Great pro- gress is being made in mining this deposit Here, in the Yukon it has been the opinion of learned mining men, that tungsten exists in no small quantities. Up in the Mayo country, valuable tungsten scheelite find has been made near Dublin Gulch Preliminary development work on this find last summer and the work is to be continued again this season. Another tungsten property opened up and developed last on Canadian Creek and this year the Bralorne Mines have taken an option the ground and al- ready at work,
 During the past winter Stampede John" Stenbraten has feen prospecting for tungsten cinnabar in the SiXtymile country and with good results. Over 30 years ago prominent mining pointed out the fact that placer miners in the Yukon losing thousands of dollars by allowing tungsten to go out through the sluice boxes. We have been reliably informed that there abundance of cinnabar on creek close to Dawson but that far actual lead has been located
 All in all it would appear that this vital war metal abounds in this mineral belt but that it is only now being exploited
 Who knows but what the day may be near at hand when determined effort will be made to prospect and develop tungsten deposits the Dawson district When this has been done valuable contribution will be made to the effort. Moreover such action might well lead to the opening up of important of mineral revenues in this country Yukon Miner of Dawson

Japanese Moving Day Looms
WEST COAST OPINION HARDENS IN FAVOR OF
 REMOVAL OF ALIENS AND CITIZENS ALIKE
By LAWRENCE E. DAVIES

San Francisco-Wthn few weeks 6000O or more Amercan-born Japanese doubtless vii be on the march away from the West Coast combat zone' With them will go many thousands of alien Japanese not affected by Department of Justice orders, which this month sent 5000 nationals of Germany, Italy and Japan of prohibted' adadcent to defense plants and military installations Sections of the public will sym pathize with the plight of of these American citizens but the substantial part of the Coast popula tion that says you can't trust Jap" will applaud their going and the applause will join throngs which "be fore Pearl Harbor would have denounced as violation Of civil liberties any treatment for Japanese Americans which not considered proper treatment for other citizens
The Nome nugget., 1942-04-08
Factor of IndOctrination

The fact that the Kbei are comparatively numerous is disturbing to many officials, who that in attend ing school in Japan these Ameircan-born Japanese must have become ndoctrinated with the present i'm perlal aims of Tokyo. Japanese American spokesmen relate that when the Kibe answered the draft call many of them thinking to advance in the army detail ed Tn their questonnaires the experience they had had in Japanese military organizations studying abroad Now, these spokesnen report the United States Army IS going through the questionnairs again and giving honorable discharges to the Kbei
 Preliminary steps taken by the Army and the De- partment of Jusc did not satisfy the Coast Whether inocuated with form of hysteria or just being sen- sible in the light of what happened in Hawaii residents demanded more than the moving of aliens out of the defense areas.
 Military officials are surveying possible sites for Japanese reservations, on which minimum of con- sructon work would have to be done before the move was begun. Committees representing Japanese com- munles will meet with government officials and rec ommend certain procedure, such the freezing of mortgages and leases until after the war
 Federal officials take the position that although the Army can order Amercan-born Japanese out of mill tary areas they cannot tell them where to go this would deprive them of their rights as American citizens
 But spokesmen for the Japanese-America Citizens League want military areas established in the districts to which they move from the Coast They contend that groups of them start settling here and there in other parts ot the country those communities will rise up indignantly and make life miserable if not wholly unsafe, for the newcomers.-NeW York Times
The Nome nugget., 1942-04-08
Protest Soft" Policy

The first outcres against soft treatment of the Japanese problem came from few members of Con- gress from the West Coast and from Mayor or two and half dozen County Boards of Supervisors in Cal itornia. The Federal Bureau of Investigation began raldng all along the coast with the aid of local police and deputy sherfs. The haul included in addition to hundreds of potentially dangerous aliens, great qlan titles of contraband, such guns and radio sets
 Investigations by Earl Warren, State Attorney Gen. era, showed instances in which airfield was sur rounded entirely by Japanese-occupied land An air base located adjacent arid tracts on which not even jackrabbt could grow" but on which Jap aneSe began farming All of these developments chang ed the mood of the public adn made Japanese in some sections of the Coast particularly California fearful of their safety. Up to the Japanese population move ment has affected officially only aliens although those With small children, American-bOrn, have naturally taken them to their homes As for the American born Japanese, there divisions of opinion to how they should be handled Of some 930O0 Cafor- nians of Japanese ancestry, 60OOO are American c- zens. More than half of the A. 565 Japanese in Wash ington American citizens. This same is true of Oregon, which has LOGO Japanese.
 What menace to West Coast security do these Fl 800 citizens O Japanese ancestry represent? And how real is the danger from the Coasts 4100 alien Japanese? On every side from police officers, district attorneys and others, one is told that the Amercan-born Jap aneSe dangerous than the aliens because there are of them"
 The resident Japanese may be divided into two class eS: the Ise frst-generation members, who cannot obtain American citizenship, and the Nisei, or second generation, who are citizens. Then the Nse may be broken down into two groups, the Kbei, American born Japanese who have been educated in Japan or stayed any length of time there and the group whose members have obtained all of their education in this country.
