Let it be hoped that the day is at hand when it will be longer necessary to discover uncharted pinnacle rocks by the loss of some vessel, and the custom commemorating the loss by naming the hid den rock after the unfortunate craft will be impos sibe in the future writes Coll E. Lester Jones, Sup erntendent of the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey, in closing his elaborate report safeguard ing the waterways of Alaska.
 This eabjuration- follows of the losses that have been sustained because of the neglect of Alaskan waters in the past. It had been shown that He vessels have been wrecked in Alaska between 1900 and 1917 direct result of the Hack of surveys, the lack of accurate charts and the lack of information relating to currents" The tonnage of these vessels aggregated more than 70oo0, and their value $S,600,000. With them rifced 205 lives These figures do not include the losses in the Interior waters of Alaska does it include S9 vessels lost through other causes than those related Before 1900 and after the American occupation the losses included l09 vessels
 Col Jones' report is by far the most comprehen- sivc work safeguarding the waters of Alaska that has been issued. It shows clearly that wa tcrways have been shamefuy neglected that the sacrifice for the neglect has been terrible. He says the Philippine surveys have progressed in IT years than those of Alaska in 50 years yet the commerce with Alaska has been growing rapid rate The of wrecks, and all the other things that involved in tho neglect Alaskan waters shown.
 Eut best of all, throughout the book, sandwichcd between maps and illustrations and charts, is tinuous and strong argument for the development of Alaska along broad and constructive lines. Col. Jones' who is temporarily detached from the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey, is daily proving to be of the most faithful and powerful work for Alaska and her welfare in Washington. His detachment just adds to the reasons why Alaska would like to the ended quickly, if that is possible, because anxious that he should re- turn to his work for the Territory He is just now serving under the colors of his country, and will re- main with the fighting forces until the war shall have ended.
 In the meantime, his strong appeal for Alaska can not fail to be of lasting benefit to this country.
