 DEFENSE TO
 BE SOUGHT
Military Construction 10 Be Demanded . Rdddr
 Screen 10 Be Built


 IR--Air Secretary Symington pie tured Alaska today as a defense bastion standing between the "air frontiers of the continent and the "only nation in the world that is powerful enough to launch an att tack against the United States
 At a news conference the Sec- retary predicted Congress would en- act sl37.000.000 Public Works appropriation measure for military construction in the Territory.
 Work will proceed immediately. he said, on construction of $50,- 100000 radar screen in Alaska to detect enemy planes. He said Con- gress had approved the expenditure and the money could be taken from other Air Force funds to the work could start at once
 Targets Stated
 In his lair frontiers" Syming- ton said he included all the north- ern states The great industrial center of Detroit, he added, would be target in case of war Rep. Hugh Mitchell tD-Wash). in the party. told the Anchorage Chamber of Commerce in an ad- dress his visit had impressed him with the need for continuity in the Public Works program.
 He said the sl3700o.000 program at present was pigeonholed in the House Armed Services committee. T will take back the story of the need for continuity" the Congress man said. predicting Congress '.will recognize the problems and will get the bill through this year"
 Housing Great Need
 Housing is one of the greatest needs" in Alaska, Symington said. Instead of figuring how much money is available and planning a program on the basis of money, we must figure how much housing is needed and plan to make the money available"
 Dishonest Move He viewed as bordering on dis honesty the sending of troops to Alaska and compelling them to live under conditions where rent allow ances were insufficient. Tt isn't right to require that men dig into their own pockets becase they are assigned here" he asserted. "espec- ially when the government controls SO many items that make living costs high--such as freight rates.
 Question Why?
 Why should the soldier be pen- alized because construction costs are so high that high rents must be charged to support the capital outlay for housing?"
 The Secretary said there was no part of the world I've consider more important to ourselves tthe Air Force) and to the United States than Alaska. Problems here must be fixed. Housing cannot go on the way it is hope to get more practical attention from the pow CTS that be in Washington when return
 He will remain in the Territory. he said. until Wednesday. The Joint Chiefs of Staff. who are in Kodiak following visit to Adak. are scheduled to leave Alaska on Thursday. They are due here We'd nesday.
