(By J. F. SANDEBBON, Canadian Press Staff Writer) WASHINGTON, Feb. 1'l—(CP)—. ‘dent Roosevelt declared today that communications between the United States and Alaska. should bo illllmtvod. in giving warning that an enemy attack on Alaska. is s per- fectly possible military operation and that attacks on New York or even Detroit are. feasible under certain conditions. He told his press conference that the United States Wsr Depart- ment is nearby an end oi an exhsustive study of the whole problem of communications with Alaska, and said that a decision in start must be otter ute made within the next two or three weeks if something is to be done by January 1943. A proposed Alaska highway through British Columbia or Alberta and by way of the Yukon territory is only one of the proposals under review. he said. Others are s. light. 1 one-track railway, the use of the inside passage along the Pacific coast to connect with a highway. and. finally. the expensive use oi transport planes. He could not lore- tcll what method. if any. would be adopted. It was learned here tonight that renewed discussions have started with the Canadian government over the_A1aska. highway or some alter- native means of rushing men and equipment to the northern outpost of the continent. t What form the new discussions have taken could not be learned but it was assumed the Uruted States is sounding out Canadian authorities on the possibility of using Canadian territory for the highway and other complicating hteinatiormi problems involved in the project, Discussions between Ottawa and Washington have been held many times in the last three or four years but it was reported tonight that the_ present discussions have been designed to bring the whole thing to a speedv decision. The urgency of inrproving com- munications between the United States and Anska was demonstrat- ed when the Presiuent. replying to a reporter's question, frankly Stiilkd the United States army and navy are not in a position to repel any and all attacks on Alaska. To drive home the urgency of the general war situation. the Presi- dent said it would be quite possible. under certain conditions. for the enemy to shell New York tomorrow night or, again under certain cir- cumstances, to bomb the city of De- troit tonight. One Bright Spot The press ccnfcrcnce had only one bright spot-the Presidents de- claxation that American shipments of munitions to Russia. which fell behind schedule in December and January. would catch up by March When asked for comment on the strategic value to the United States of a proposed new 51.000.000.000 loan to_Russia. he said it should be con- sioered in terms of dead Germans and smashed tanks. At the some time. the President lashed out at what he called Wash- ington's Chvedcn set and which he accused of starting preposterous rumors and lies in circulation. He _d€50l‘lb€d as rot reports in Washington that the damage clone by the Japanese at Pearl Harbor was greater titan that reported by Navy Secretary Frank Knox after his personal investigation of the extent oi the damage. When he was asked about the Alaska highway the President re- plied that the War Department is near the end ‘oi its studies of the DIOJBCL, including the different pra- posed routes. Until a few months ago. the War Department was op- posed to the whole project but since the American declaration of war and the upheaval in the Pacific. it has changed its opinion. At_ the present time. delegate A. J. Dimond oi Alaska. has before Congress a bill to build the road. It has been approved by the House of iteprescntativcs Roads Committee consisting of Interior SGCYBJLIY Harold ickcs. War Secretary Henry sumson and Secretary Knox. Dimond has told Congress it would cost $50,000,000 to build the highway which would consist o. 1.100 miles of new gravel road 24 feet wide and general repairs to 350 miles or existing irigh-way. Dimond proposes the whole cost of the road to be borne by the United States and said today “I am not suggesting that Canada put up a dollar" He estimates maintenance costs $1,000,000 a year which he also paid by the at proposes should United States.
