TO PUBLIC DOMAIN
About 75 acres of land, long
used as a site for the Army
Radio receiving station at Jun
eau, have been returned to pub
lic domain. Army relinquish
ment of this and other tracts of
land in Alaska is in line with
a policy announced several
months ago by Lt. Gen. J. H.
Atkinson, Commander-in-Chief,
Alaska. In essence he said that
j when a military agency no long
er has real need for land assign
ed to it from the public domain,
the land will be promptly sur
rendered.
One of the two relinquished
tracts of land, 74.3 acres in size,
comprises a part of Tongass Na
tional Forest. Permission for the
Army to use this land was grant
ed in 1933 by the Dept, of Agri
culture. The second tract, .65 of
an acre, is situated on the Gla
cier Highway, approximately sev
en miles north of Juneau and
was obtained from the Bureau
of Land Management.
