Senator Brooks Upset Over Air Bases Sale Across Borders
Washington AP Sen Brooks argues against sale of U S air bases in Canada and urges a treaty guaranteeing future U S use before more bases are sold. He notes nine bases on the northwest route and five on the northeast route cost over 71 million dollars and flight strips over 4 million, with sales priced about 14 million below cost. He cites lack of use rights after six months postwar and contrasts with quicker action by Britain.
