What's more, it soon may be our forty-ninth state. Release of 30 million dol lars in Federal funds to start construction of a ballistic mis sile early warning station near Nenana in the interior of Alaska highlights the strategic importance of this vast, far northern territory. Global Defense Because of the territory's importance in the nation's global defense picture, Alas ka's military leaders have never made a secret of their strategic mission, which is: To provide early warning of an air attack. To intercept and destroy enemy bombers seeking to fly over Alaska on the way to ward targets in Canada and the United States. To strike immediate counterblows, using strategic air command planes from Alaska bases. The' importance of Alaskan bases for use in this global strategy, as contrasted with NATO bases, is accentuated by the fact that Alaska is American territory. Six Major Installations Alaska has six major mili tary installations. Elmendorf Air Force base near Anchor age is the headquarters for the Unified Alaskan command under Lt. Gen. Frank Arm strong. The other large bases are Ladd and Eielson near Fairbanks; Fort Richardson near Anchorage; Fort Greely Arctic training post about 90 miles from Fairbanks and a Naval base on Kodiak Island. The development of missile weapons has heightened Alas ka's role in the global defense picture because of its proxim ity to the Eurasian land mass. NO PENALTY Auburn, N.Y (UPI) The Cayuga County School Libra rians association hounded by requests for books no longer on the shelves, announced they accept long overdue books with no fines and no questions asked. Range will always be an im portant factor in warfare and it is cheaper to send an air craft or missile 500 miles than 5,000 miles. Good Investment Economically, Alaska has paid for itself many times over since the United States purchased it from Czarist Rus sia in 1867. Mining, fishing, and the timber and fur indus tries all flourish. In 1956, the territory's nat ural resources produced ap proximately $161,846,000 worth of raw materials. No complete figures are available for 1957, but economists ex pect the figure to remain about the same. The biggest economic news in Alaska during the past year, however, has been the possibility of developing oil fields. A total of 30 million acres already has been leased or covered by offers to lease out of a possible 84 million acres believed favorable for petroleum development. Automobile Firebug Believed in Portland Portland (UPI) Fire men and police said Saturday they fear another automobile firebug is at large in Port land. The city was plagued with car fires a few years ago but the latest firebug appar ently uses rum to start his fires. Police said two 1957 model cars were badly damaged by fire, and at least two, and possibly three others, were prepared for the torch. .Fire damage of one of the vehicles has been estimated at $1,000. Damage to another late model car was $200. Fire department said rum apparently was used to' ignite one of the cars. At least 15 autos were dam aged by a fire bug . in Port land in the spring of 1952, police said. Laurel, Miss. (UPI) Doc tors and police Saturday in vestigated the deaths of two Laurel Negroes, believed stricken by poisonous moon shine whisky. Frazier Brown, about 40, was found dead in his home Friday.
