an enemy power every major U.
S. city would be open for attack.
He added:
“In some ways it might have
been better that we did nothing
in Alaska than to do the little
we have accomplished in the last
three years. Alaska now stands
as tempting bait. Properly forti
fied it could be an almost im
pregnable bulwark against at
tack from Asia, and could pro
vide the springboard from which
a major offensive action could
be launched.”
I Bartlett said the United States
' is concentrating its defense of
forts at too few points, with only
one airfield in arctic Alaska.
“It ought to be a matter of high
national policy to ring the arctic
with suitable defenses,” he said.
“In any event this would be des
irable and even necessary. It be
comes all the more so because
of the possibility of the existence
in the arctic of an oil field of
considerable dimensions. There is
high hope that underneath the
arctic tundra, heretofore held
valueless, may be discovered one
of the great oil pools of the world.
