'REFABRiCA I
HOUSES Wi TED,
ALASKA]) ITARY
By FRANK VAILI.E
(AP Special Washington Service)
WASHINGTON, Jan. 26— UO —
Rep. Mitchell (D-Wash) urged to
day that defense agencies step up
heir investigation of the use of
prefabricated housing in Alaska.
He said an Air Force answer to
his request for a progress report
on the service’s housing program to
relieve the existing shortage indi
cated “apparently little had been
done."
Mitchell said a 1949 survey which
he conducted indicated need for
’9,616 Alaskan housing units to
ieet military and civilian defense
mployecs' requirements.
He said construction of 3.849 units
ere approved by Congress last year.
But, he continued, the Air Force
old him that under this program
112 units of family housing at Eiel
son Air Force base were but 34
crcent complete on Nov. 30, 1950,
nd a 750-man barracks, also at
tlielson, was not placed under con
duction until Oct. 24. 1950.
Both, the Air Force said, are
scheduled for completion Dec. 1.
1951.
Mitchell said the Air Force let
ter indicated a major problem to
be overcome was the short construc
tion season and the scarcity of
skilled workers.
Prefabricated housing, the Con
gressman said, would be the an
swer to both problems if such con
struction proves suitable for the ex
treme' cold Arctic weather.
“Housing units could be put to
gether in the United States through
out the winter months and shipped
to Alaska ready for assembling dur
ing the short summer construction
reason," Mitchell explained.
He said tests conducted on enam
eled steel prefabs indicated they
would withstand temperatures of
C5 degrees below zero.
More extreme temperatures, he
said showed up some “bugs.”
