Parks has been advised by the Legis- lature to so inform the United States Signal Corps, in response to a request from it for an expression of opinion on the subject. The Army authorities ask- ed the Governor if the Ter- ritory would take over, op- erate and maintain the sec- tion of the Alaska cable and telegraph system north of Anchorage if the south- ern section were sold to some commercial company.
