Washington, March 11. UP)
Interior Secretary - Ickes said
today present plana call for
completion "within o. j year"
of the United States-Alaska
highway.
"The road," he reported,
"will be protected from the sea
by Alpine country impassable
for airplanes for at least fifty
percent of the time die to
coastal fogs and storms. Along
this route trucks and tanks
could move easily and quickly
in continuous life-line be
tween the United States and
Alaska."
Saying it was his conviction
that the highway "is one of the
most important of all the things
waiting to be done," Ickes,
member of a cabinet committee
handling plans (or. the road, de
clared "this highway must be
constructed in hurry."
He said that army engineers
now were surveying a route
tentatively approved, and that
heavy equipment for construc
tion would be moved in while
the ground was still frozen, so
that progress would not be de
layed unduly by the spring
thaw.
The road would run approx
imately 1,900 miles front Wash
ington state to Fairbanks, and
estimates of its cost run from
$23,000,000 to $90,000,000.

Newspaper advertising
in a nation at War
NEVER BEFORE have people turned to news
papers so eagerly, trustingly, hungrily,
and in such large numbers... for all the news,
fof jull reports, for complete details.
Total war, into which this country was forced
so suddenly, has added immeasurably to the
responsibility of American newspapers... a re
sponsibility they have been quick to meet, re
gardless of the cost and the effort.
It is a two-fold responsibility...
A responsibility, first, to the public... to keep
it fully informed in these critical days, to bring
it the vital news of the day, completely, accu
rately and quickly.
A responsibility to advertisers, too... to give
them the best means of telling their story, pre
senting their merchandise and services to the
'public where and when it will do the most good.
In fulfilling this responsibility, newspapers are
serving not only manufacturers and retailers
who have things to sell... they are also serving
the millions of readers who must continue to
buy the countless things they need and want.
In newspapers the advertising is news, too...
more so today than ever before. In newspapers
the advertising is received as a welcome, helpful
service. That is why, as The Continuing Study
of Newspaper Reading shows, people read the
ads as well as the news so thoroughly.
And the Study shows that big news, war
news, increases the reading of newspaper ads...
that when big news breaks, the advertiser can
count on even closer attention to his message by
even more people than in normal times.
To the men and women oj this country the news
paper is more valuable today than ever before.
That's what males it so valuable a medium today
jor all advertisers... whether their problem is to
produce more sales, build good-will, describe their
part in the war program, advise consumers on the
war-time use of their products, or to maintain
brand identity, dealer friendship, and public ac
ceptance jor the peace-time years to come.
