because planes couldn't risk land

Twining Says Alaska
Has Been Made Safe
From Enemy Attack
BY the Assoeiated Press

ANCHORAGE, Alaska, Aug. 90
Alaska is safe from enemy attack
as result of perfection of the
''heartland concept" in the last
two years, the acting chief of the
Air Force told the Anchorage
Chamber of Commerce Monday
night.
Fresh from briefing on the lat
est problems and achievements in
the defense program, Gen. Nathan
S. Twining said alaska now is
safe"
Core Is Near Anchorage.
Gen. Twining was introduced as
the originator of the defense con-
cept which has been set up to
make the territory invulnerable
to surprise attack.
He pointed out that Alaska is
too big to plan defenses for every
mile of the vast interior and ex-
tensive shorelines. The heartland
concept was adopted to give the
military a strong core near
Anchorage and Fairbanks from
which operations could be ex-
tended quickly to the far corners
of the territory.
You can relax now for the first
time because you are safe. Nobody
is going to bother the place. And
we are going to keep it that way.
We are always plugging to get the
job DONE"
Bradley Encouraged.
Gen. Omar Bradley, chairman
of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, told
the chamber he was encouraged by
the progress made in Alaska's de-
tense program.
Three years ago was con-
siderably worried about what we
had here" he said. 1.-The short
building season made it difficult
to build defenses but when I see
what we have here today I am
encouraged. I am not worried
the way I was"
