New Commission
Starts To Work On
Alaskan Housing
WASHINGTON, </P) — A new
military housing commission be
gan a survey of Alaska’s desper
ate shortage of quarters for troops
30 minutes after it was sworn in
i Wednesday.
B. E. Giesecke, of Austin, Tex.,
commission chairman and last
year’s chairman of the American
Legion’s national housing commit
tee, said Alaska will be given top
| priority in commission studies. He
added:
“Nowhere, according to the in
formation given us, is the need
so great. We have to have housing
if we are going to be able to keep
men up there.”
In the afternoon and evening
the commission went through a
bulky file of photographs showing
conditions under which air, naval
and ground personnel in Alaska
! live.
Yesterday they viewed motion
pictures taken by the air force
giving visual proof of the lack of
living accomodations at Alaska
bases.
Giesecke said the commission
will probably make an inspection
i trip soon to the northern Terri
j tory.
Other members of the commis
1 sion are Frank E. McKinney,
| prominent Legionnaire, of Indian
| apolis, Ind.. and Clarence M. Low
of New York.
