The United States will close

next March, the Defense De-

The action, Pentagon off,
cials said, is expected to save
about $9.2 million a year in

The four bases, which cost
the United States $50 million
to build, are: Alconbury Air

ton and Sculthorpe.
The bases now are used for
reconnaissance chiefly.
Officials said the reconnais-

handled by fast RF-101 planes
operating out of France.
Some of the functions will
be taken over by others of the

economic, operational and
traffic advantages. as well as
being consistent with the trend
of modern transit opera
The P. U. C. noted that the
National Capital Transporta-

that the Streetcars are not
needed here.
The report today said modern

contemplates that '1ong- g-haul"

by high-speed trains made up
of heavy cars with wide-guage
tracks operating in subways un-
