Governor w. B. Hoggatt left Seattle for Washington, D. c. to confer with President Roosevelt on the evening of December 3, and just before his depart. ure had underwent an interview with a P.-J. man with the following result. First he declared that the length of his visit to the national capital would be determined by the action of congress in taking up the needs of Aleska, and then continued as follows:
 "There are numerous things which Alaska will ask of congress at th's term, " said Gov, Hoggatt, "the most important of which are lighthouses and the establishment of a fourth division of thc judicial district of Alaska. Ad, ditional aids to navigation are needed on Prince William sound and on the Seward peninsula. The fourth division of the judicial district should take in the territory about Valdez"
