The Daily Alaska empire. [volume] (Juneau, Alaska) 1926-1964, 1941-12-29

This capital OF Alaska, which has
a population of only STAB, is viz
tually defenselesS in itself. How
ever, it is bulwarked by rugged
Baranof Island where the Navy
has constructed base.
Should an enemy succeed in
taking such ports as Seward.
Juneau, Skagway and Ketchi-
kan, it would control Alaska.
Through them move the fish,
gold and furs that America
buys and back through them
move the food, oil and manu-
featured goods that Alaska re-
quires.
To what extent the Army and
Navy regard Alaska as a base for
offensive measures has never been
divulged. Dutch Harbor is a great
deal closer to Tokyo than Tokyo
is to Honolulu. The japanese capt.
tai is, in fact, in easy range of a
modern bombing plane.
Whether we merely defend Alas
ka or use it as a springboard to-
ward Japan would seem one of the
major questions of current military
strategy.
Tomorrow: Alaska's defense
prOgram.)
The Daily Alaska empire. [volume] (Juneau, Alaska) 1926-1964, 1941-12-29

Just before the war broke
out between America and ia
pan, Sam Jackson, AP Feature
Service staff writer, made a
comprehensive survey of the Al
aska defense situation. Here, in
the first of a series of three
articles, he tells what the war
means to Alaska and what Al
aska means to America. The
articles all bear a Juneau date
line.)

AUTO T00TS fire.

BRADENTON, Fla, Dec. =
Speaking of cars that do everything
but drive themselves, one that
caught fire here turned in its own
alarm. A blaze under the hood
burned the insulation off the wiz
ing and the short circuit caused
the horn to set up a continuous
blast. The fire was extinguished
before the car was seriously DAM
aged

JUNEAU, Alaska-The largest,
richest area Of undeveloped terri
tory in the world, not even except
ing the interior of Africa and South
America, is a stake in the war be-
tween Japan, the United States
and Great Britain.
Inhabitants of the eastern sea-
board states and even of such huge
areas as Texas and California find
it hard to grasp the immensely
of Alaska and British Columbia
and the Yukon and Northwest Ter
ritories.
Here are great prizes for an
expanding, Ovcrpopulated ma
ton such as Japan. They rival
and possibly excel the ancient
teeming lands of the Far East
to which the Nippon nation SO
far has directed her energies.
They constitute a great from
tier, comparable to that which
American pioneers found when
they invaded the West.
Nothing is so erroneous as the
general impression that Alaska
and western Canada are bleak, in
hospitable regions of perpetual ice
and snow. The warm waters OF
the japanese current moderate
the temperature, giving much Ci
the coastal area climate similar
to that of the northern United
States.
Inland, the winters are severe
But old timers comment that once
the temperature drops to zero il
doesn't make much practical diff
ference if it goes to 40 to so be-
low At Fairbanks, near the Arctic
Circle, life goes on comfortably
and normally the year round.
Difficult Defense
The riches of this land consists
of fish, timber, various minerals
and furs. Under American owner
ship the tourist attractions are
valuable. A land-hungry nation
like Japan could develop meal
culable agricultural and dairy re-
SOU ces.
Both the conquest and de-
Tense Of Alaska and western
Canada present problems prob
ably unique in warfare.
Most of the population is
confined to a few small wide
Iy separated settlements. Out
side of these is wilderness. Al
aska has about one inhabitant
to every ten square miles, and
nearly half the population is
Indian. The vast, sprawiing
area of Canada's Northwest
Territories is virtually unin-
habited.
Strategic Position
To protect key positions in AL
aska the Navy has established
powerful bases at Dutch Harbor
situated on the distant Aleutiar
island of Unalaska, and at Kodiak
and Sitka. The Army has hastily
constructed airfields at Anchorage
Fairbanks and Annette Island.
