Slides The Colonel, who was recently promoted to a full Colonel, also showed the members of the group slides of the territory of Alaska. Col. Cannon expressed the opin ion that Alaska was vital to the American chain of defense. He outlined the turn of events during the war when the Japanese forces took part of the Aleutian chain and pointed out how vulnerable that country was then and could be today from any kind of an attack from any kind of an enemy, Mineral Wealth Col. Cannon also told of the mineral wealth and the farm lo calities. He outlined the results of the late Franklin Roosevelt's plan to have the army experiment with livestock and chickens during the war. "As a whole the experiment was a success," said the Col., "but for anyone else except the Army to bring in food for the animals, it would be senseless because of the huge costs involved."
