DUKE OF WINDSOR
HELP TO FIND NEW BASE FOR U.S.A. Received Dec. 15, 8.40 p.m. WASHINGTON, Dec. 14. A despatch from aboard the United States cruiser Tuscaloosa states that President Roosevelt said that the Duke of Windsor had promised to help in locating a new site for the projected United States base in the Bahamas, to replace the present location at Mayaguana, which was a poor anchorage. He said the Duke of Windsor intended to visit the United States, at an unspecified time after the beginning of the year, to inspect civilian conservation camps.
The Tuscaloosa is headed for the United States.
