Be Left as Vulnerable

WASHINGTON. Jan. 28.-1nter-
ior Secretary Harold l.. lckes, III
his annual report, says the develop
ment of Alaska is becoming IN
creasingly connected with the well
fare of the whole nation, and pre-
dicted that never again would the
Territory be left Vulnerable out
post"
He said the country must become
more thoroughly acquainted with
Alaska. and its resources must be
inventoried- and plans made to
utilize and develop them wisely
Ickes stated that the pressing
need was for testing Alaska areas
for petroleum deposits, because OF
waning supplies elsewhere. He sad
that less than half of the Terri
tory has been satisfactorily sur
yeyed. less than five percent is pri-
vately owned, and the Government
as landlord should find out what
it owns
Postwar acceleration of demand
for land in the Territory seems in
evitable. not only will members of
the armed forces and civilian con-
struction workers become acquaint-
ed with the advantages in Alaska,
but new road construction includ-
ing the International Highway has
made the Territory more accessible"
