SALMON | JAPS WORRY ALASKA By HUGO S. SIMS | (Special Washington Correspond- ent of The Citizen) | Adyocates of a spending pro- | gram, designed to offset business repressions, recently conferred with President Roosevelt and re- Ported that he would apply a self- liquidating test to future con- struction projects.. While the Chief Executive was not repre- *| sented as urging any immediate program, his present thought is that spending projects should cre- ate “new wealth” and eventually return to the Treasury any money / advaneed by the Government. He | specifically mentioned as merit-/ orious projects, the building of! toll bridges and highways, rural! electrification and other potential | revenue producers. Among those failing to meet his objective were! | school houses and other public; buildings and battleships. War-! ships, in particular, he said,| should not be constructed as re- employment objectives. Among the most ambitious pro- | Posals in the category of “pump- | priming” is that of Senator Bulk- | ley, of Ohio, who would construct an $8,000,000,000 system of trans- continental toll highways, to be financed by bonds issued by aj new Federal Highway Corpora-' tion. The Ohioan is drafting a bill now along this line, with the help of engineering and financial ex- perts. While the details of the) proposal are to be determined, | Senator Bulkley thinks the sys-| tem could be constructed in three | years. It would include at least three super-highways crossing the | continent East and West and six North and South. a | The Bulkley plan would pro-/ vide for the elimination of all grade crossings, a neutral strip to divide traffic so that vehicles on each pavement would move in| only one direction. Freight and) passenger vehicles would use sep- arate pavements. The highways | would be built on a 300-foot right- of-way at a cost of between $300,- 000 and $500,000 a mile, with a to- | tal of about 20,000 miles. j Highway officials who have dis- | cussed the proposal with Senator Bulkley feel certain that a way jcould be found to finance the | System, guaranteeing the Govern- | vestors of a fair return and at the! program of road building during | solving the unemployment prob- |lem. Senator Bulkley estimates | that interest and amortization at two percent, plus the cost of istration would cost about $220,- 000,000 annually. If ten percent of the motor vehicle traffic uses the highway system, he figures the return to the Corporation would be about $245,000,000 a year. Readers may be interested in the amount of tolls which would be charged users of such a system. Naturally, these have not been worked out in full but for estima- | tion purposes, the toll used has! been twenty-five and fifty cents SLILPIAOPIDIPIIIDIIIAY, ings on the part of one and al! that— for all advertising, cl will be appreciated.

On this basis, the toll for four passengers in an automobile would be forty cents each for a 225-mile journey and $2.30 for a two-ton truck cov- ering the same distance. In his discussion with a group of congressmen, the President spoke favorably of the trans-con- tinential highway project which gould be worked upon during times of business depression and stopped during normal employ- ment. Mr. Roosevelt described a Government-constructed six-lane/ highway outside London. He told how the British Government con- demned a right-of-way one-half mile wide, sold highway frontage for business purposes and small trade tracks behind at $500 an acre and recovered two-thirds of its expenditure in seven years. Secretary Hull last week def- initely, pointedly and categoric- ally denied that the United States had or contemplates any “alliance, agreement or under- standing. . .with Great Britain re- lating to war or the possibility of war”. That there was “any un- derstanding or agreement, ex- press or implied” for the use of the navy of the United States “in conjunction with any other na- tion” and that there was any such understanding- or agreement that the United States navy “should police or patrol or be transferred to any particular waters or any Particular ocean”. His statement was in a letter to Senator Pitman, written after a resolution had been introduced by Senator John- son, of California, in the Senate, | and Representative Sauthoff, of for the disclosure to Congress of any agreement or understanding involving naval cooperation with | Great Britain or other nations. Previously, Admiral William D. Leahy, Chief of Naval Operations, informed the House Naval Affairs Committee that in the event of war in the Pacific or in any other part of the world, the United States Navy has no un- derstanding involving “assistance to be given or received”. In pre- vious: testimony before the Com- mittee, the Admiral had not dis- cussed the nature of several con- ferences between British and American officials. This led to some speculation on the part of congressmen and the Admiral’s statement was made to remove any misunderstanding. The Admiral declared that the navy expects to solve its defense problems without alliances and to stand on its own feet in providing protection to the United States. He insisted that a battleship is “the bulwark of defense or of- fense” and that while such a ves- sel could be sunk by concentrated THE KEY WEST CITIZEN ; ; | airplane fire, it was less vulner- able than any other type of sur- face vessel. | Previously, the United States, Great Britain and France, in prac- tically identical notes, asked Ja- pan to make known, by February 20, whether she is building or in- tends to build, battleships in ex- cess of the 35,000-ton limit or cruisers greater than 10,000 tons. These limits are those prescribed by the naval treaty of 1930 which fell apart when Tokyo advised that Japan would no longer be bound by its terms. The three government declared their will- ingness to begin fresh discussions of limitation for naval armament but warned Japan that unless sat- isfactory information and assur- ances were received, they would feel free to resume liberty of ac- tion in regard to naval building. There is little reason to expect that the Japanese government will discuss limitation and the notes were evidently sent in order to place upon Japan the onus of precipitating the greatest -naval building race in the world’s his- tory. The Japanese Admiralty is apparently convinced that the Japanese policy in China requires a navy impregnable in the China Sea and strong enough to keep out of those waters any combina- tion of fleets whcih might seek to enter them. In fact, officials in Washington and London are con- vinced that Japan is building, or planning, battleships of 43,000 tons and a number of fast, heav- ily-armed “pocket battleships” in the form of cruisers such as the German navy has developed. Explanation of the joint action of the three countries is to be found in the agreement between them to observe the old treaty ilimits, subject to an “escaltor clause” which permits them to be | disregarded if other powers fail to limit the size of their naval) plans. Certainly, the formal notes place the blame for increased biulding upon Japan. The State Department pointed out that it had endeavored to persuade Ja- pan to adhere to fourteen-inch guns on capital ships but that the Japanese refusal had obliged oth- er governments to install sixteen - inch guns.
