J. F. DEN MS | 0SES LIFE BYDR0WNING
We'll Known Resident Dies on Hunting Trip in
 Siika Bay

James F. Dennis, about Fl, Ter ritorial Liquor Enforcement Off, cer and well known Juneauite, lost his life by drowning Tuesday eve ming while on tragic hunting trip with his longtime friends, Oscar G. Olson, Territorial Treasurer, J. B. Carlyle, Chief Liquor Enforce ment Officer, and Tax Collector B. A. Brown.
 The four men left on the hunt ing trip the first of this week, arriving at Sitka Bay, the scene of the tragedy, Monday evening, according to U. s. Commissioner Felix Gray.
 The accident occurred early on the next evening as Dennis, Olson and Brown were going ashore in small skiff. The boat shipped some water in the rough sea and Dennis had started to bail when a large wave struck the boat, throwing him into the water on one side of the boat, and sending Olson and Brown into the sea on the other side. Carlyle had re- mained on the larger boat, Browns Vencedor.
 Dennis was wearing a heavy hunting vest loaded with shells and long rubber hip boots. The water was too deep on his side of the boat for him to stand, and he could not swim. Olson and Brown got ashore.
 Olson and Brown were unable to locate the body until the next morning at high tide. They ar rived here yesterday afternoon.
 The body has been taken to the Charles w. Carter Mortuary.. Sur vivors are the widow, of Juneau, and a daughter who lives in Port land, Ore. Two sons are buried in Juneau He was a member of the Cordova Elks Lodge, and was an oldtimer in Alaska, having previ- ously been employed on the Cop per River and Northwestern Rail- way.
 Commissioner Gray said no in- quest will be held.

.DIM0ND SAYS.
 SMASH JApS. FROM ALASKA.
Compares SoIomons Sup ply Lanes with Aleu-
 tian Route

WASHINGTON, Oct. 30-Alaska Delegate Anthony J. Dimond in a speech in the House today de- scribed Alaska as the best route to use to defeat the Japanese by striking at their homeland.
 We can normally look forward to the expansion of military devel- opments in and through Alaska, both in bringing power to bear against the Japanese, and in ma- terially aiding by shooting sup plies to the Russian German Front" he said.
 Solomons Difficulty
 The strategic importance of AL aska has been brought vividly to our attention by the obvious diff ficulty seen in supplying forces in Australia and the Solomon Is- lands which must be done over great distances overseas and al- ways subject to the enemy's naval forces.
 If we drive the Japanese out of the Aleutians, as we must at the earliest possible moment, we then can come within 2,000 miles of Tokyo without leaving the Terri tory" he stated
 Urging the appointment of a committee to inspect the new AL aska highway, Dimond suggested that such a group would be likely to recommend extension of sthe road for 500 miles to the Boring Sea or Strait.
 Survey Made
 A rough survey already has been made for highway from Fair banks to Nome.
 Dimond also urged a highway from Prince George to Whitehorse and if approval of this road is not obtained, suggested connecting the present highway from near Fort St John with Prince George Canadian rail terminus.
