Dimond Defeated
Effort To Money
For Alaska Base
(By The Associated Press l
WASHINGTON D C May 1, —
The house defeated the attempt
of the Delegate from Alaska to
add two million dollars to the
pending four hundred and sixteen
million dollar army appropriation
bill, for the development of the
military air base in Alaska.
Dimond sought an amendment
to the bill so as to provide the
necessary funds for construction,
contending that Alaska “was in
the most important strategic posi
tion in the United States.”
Opposition came from Represen
tative Dockweiler, a member of
the appropriations committee,
who said that although there was
no dubt of the need of an air
base in Alaska, he believed it
“more important” to the north
western aviation base firsit.
The committee had already re
commended six hundred and
twenty five thousand dollars to
start work on such a base at
Tacoma.

WASHINGTON, D. C. May 1—
Delegate Dimond and represen
tative Schwellenbach, Wallgren,
and Magnuson said today in a
joint statement, they had been
assured of cooperation by the
federation of surplus commodi
ities corporation, of the disposi
tion of some two million pounds
of frozen herring in Pacific nor'h
west and Alaska storage plants.
They discussed the situation
with President J. W. Tapp of the
corporation, yesterday.
Sehwellenbach sadi “he has as
sured us the corporation would
give every consideration to our
request for an immediate pur
chase of the surplus fish, and the
disposal of it to the indigent,
which will completely solve the
fishermen’s problems.”
Much of the supply will be a
complete loss to the fishermen
unless sold immediately, because
the storage companies will soon
claim it for charges.

Anchorage Has
Tent City Full
Outside People
(By The Associated Press)
ANCHORAGE, May 1, — A
tent colony resembling those of
a hobo jungles, has sprung up
along Ship Creek, as Anchorage
overflows with newcomers sear
ching for summer work.
All of the hotels are full and
tents are set up where the city
started twenty two years ago.
Many transients are hitchhik- j
ing the freight trains from Sew- ,
ard, but few are able to find .
work.
The influx is blamed on wild
statements circulated in Seattle
that “anyone can find work in
Alaska."
