Japan indicates that she may
establish aerial bases on the nor
thern extremities of her empire.
Today's press dispatches point to
the fact that Japan is well aware
of the fact that the United Stat
es probably intends to fortify Al
askan waters and territory with
aerial bases.
Alaskan newspapers have ad
vocated for the past two years
that the government should place
air squadrons in the Territory. We
are still of the opinion that those
contemplated bases should be es
tablished.
The Japanese government is well
aware of the fact that the two
recent flights of U. S. air squad
rons to Alaska, may result in the
placing of several air bases in
Alaska, both for training and for
protection for the Pacific seaboard
boundary of the United States.
There can be no plainer words
spoken than those issued by the
Japanese government that the move
to investigate their northern boun
daries for the pstaWlshmient of atr
bases, is a direct counter move to
the proposed fortification of the
I
Aleutian Islands, nnd the placing
of army and navy air defenses !n
other parts of Alaska.
People in Alaska are well aware
that the Japanese will some day
attempt to occupy the Territory.
Human growth and expansion de
mands that Japan enlarge. She
can do this only through the-de
velopment of martial tactics. There
fore, it is only a short step front
her boundaries to Alaska, which
at the present time is the most
vulnerable point on Uncle Sam's
boundary.
One thing more remains to be
said. Instead of the several towns
In Alaska becoming confused and
at "logger-heads" over the esta
blishment of an air base in the
Territory, they should cooperate
to convince the U. S. government
that aerial fortifications in Alaska
are of extreme necessity.
