depot.
The depot, set up to supply the
entire Alaskan theater, is de
scribed as never having operated
above 30 per cent of planned ca
pacity. Within a short time, the
military expects the warehouse
capacity to provide a full supply
for Alaska forces for a several
months’ period without replenish
ing from outside.
Col. Voris H. Conner, who will
be chief of staff of the Second
Tank Force at Richardson, com
mented that new construction
during the coming year will “have
contractors pusing each other out
of the way to get their work
done,’’ so varied is the scope of
the proposed wark.
Besides barracks and living
quarters, the army will build a
new telephone exchange, steam
power plant, water supply sys
tem, sewer system, paved roads,
a postoffice a sub-hospital and
dispensaries, shops and other
buildings.
The combined Richardson-El
mendorf installation will, say
military authorities, rank with
the largest installations in the
states.
Similar projects in the Fair
banks area, where both Ladd and
Eielson Air Force Bases are lo
cated, will provide additional
quarters for troops now held in
camps in the States. They are ex
pected to come to the north in the
near future.
The Cabin belonging to the es
tateof Fred Hagglund was sold to
the highest bidder this morning at
the U. S. Commissioner’s Court.
The building went for $305.00 to
Hilv °v Robinson.
