I)dnaher Scheme (Prince Rupl‘l( Ddlh News) principal Southeast Alaska ports to Haines, terminus of the Haines Cut-off, connection with the Alaska Highway, may be considered somewhat ambitious and visionary. It is hardly likely that a service of such magnitude as set forth by Col. Danaher would be immediately consummated. In the first place, the Skeene River Highway would have to be a much better !and more certain artery of traffic before any such service could depend upon it. There would also have ito be a sudden diversion of the normal channel of traffic from United States to Alaska. Neither of these things could be expected to be accomplished in a year or so. Nevertheless, we may expect in the course cf time laska does need |to see a channel of traffic such as Col. Dalaher sug- Eventually hundreds of cars and trucks, it is to be reasonably anticipated, will travel from the !railway and highway terminal at Prince Rupert which is so strategically placed in relation to Alaska.

The al- leged frauds were discovered by the general accounting office which is entrusted by Congress to review al government expencitures As a result of gereras accounting | office scrutiny. it is now charged that Willys-Overland owes the gov- ernment $1,115915. The fraud is/ based upen the allegation that this amount was concealed. A total of five different charges are made| against Willy-Overland, as (ol.m\v\ First, it is alleged that slightly | over one million dollars of *“com- | mon inventory” was charged to the government. These consist of items which Willys was able to use in| its own civilian production without any loss. But after charging the cost up to the government, Willys | later repurchased this inventory for | only $376991—though it charged the government $1,000,000. i This, according to the general| accounting office, was misrepresen- | tation and concealment, and the| government was defrauded of $688.- | 76. i 2. The government disputes the | figure of $75,000 for other rcun-l mon inventory. 3. The government also claims that additional inventory which cost the government $87,669 was pur: chased by Willys from the War | Assets Administration for $15911. In doing this, . the government claims, Willys concealed the fact that it had already used $17,000 worth of this-inventory in its regu- lar production. 4.
