ton
Named as deputy conservator and
general liaison officer was H. A.
Bales.
Mr.. Brennan said the major pro-
Cul ellellJ pTOpleH OF Ifle DlStTlCt To-
day involved food, and he described
closer administrative control over
food supplies as imperative" He
asked that Col, Arthur be named to
the committee as he was mileage
administrator. saving this connec-
ton would afford an added check
on unnecessary use of such critical
supplies as gas, oil and rubber.
Each department of the District is
to have deputy conservator and
each department a full time con-
servator aide to promote the pro-
gram.

ALASKAN OIL SMELL

Nearly one year ago this column
called attention to the phantom oil
pipeline which the War Department
was laying from the Fort Norman
oil fields in North Canada to
Whitehorse, Y. T. 1t was pointed
out that the pipeline had to be laid
over icy mountains, on top of the
ground at sub-zero temperatures,
and that CONCEALED oil could not be
pumped at these temperatures.
y Due to these and other difficult
ties, Petroleum Administrator Ickes
wrote a letter to Secretary of War
Stimson calling the pipeline i'm
practical AS result, Secretary
Stimson ordered its construction
stopped. However, Gen. B. B. Som
eryell later was able to proceed with
it and the line is now more than
half built. or perhaps more.
Recently the Truman Committee
sent a delegation of three Senators
TO Alaska and they have brought
back an extremely critical report.
They are in doubt whether the
pipeline can be finished in. time to
serve any real military value in
Alaska. When finished, they doubt
whether it will be able to move oil
at Temperatures of 10 degrees below
zero Finally they are not sure that
there is too much Oil in North Can
ada TO pump, anyway.
The Senators also report that oil
prospectorss are now busy in North
ern Canada looking for oil-at gov
eminent expense. They also report
that although the cost of the pipe
line was supposed to be s31 900 900,
actually the cost of the entire pro-
ject will be many times that much
They cannot get figure from the
War Department as yet, but it is
Whispered that it may run as high
as s2oo,Oo0.oo 600.
The most amazing thing how
ever, is, the report that after the
war. the pipeline and the wells in
worth Canada will be turned over
jointly to Imperial Oil Ltd. and
Standard Oil of California. The
latter firm also got the juicy Elk
Hills Naval Reserve lease, recently
cancelled by the Government. II

In face of that record, and remembering the
