Strategic Importance “Lying in flank of the sea routes from Yokohama and the far Pacific | Islands- to continental U. S., Alaska is much more likely to be attacked by .an Orlental invader than the |U. S's great sea fortress at Ha- | | waii,”" the article states. “If an| enemy reduced the $400,000,000 de- | | fenses of Hawali—a man-sized job for any Navy—he would still be 2400 miles from San Francisco, would face serious obstacles to sup- | |ply in an attack on the Pacific| Coast. But a .successful attack on Alaska “would bring him closer to his” goal. Sitka is only 800 miles from Seattle, and an enemy once | positioned in the fjords and deep | bays of the Inland Passage would | be a tough customer for the U. S.| Navy to dislodge.” | The article, which is illustrated | with the pictures of General Arnold| and -the Diomede Islands and with | a map of the North Pacific with Alaska in red ink, concludes: “From | now on Alaska becomes a perma- nent station of U. S. defense.” HABERDASHER 7. o “Fully Samo: “Insurance is designed to take the uncer- tainty out of owring property. coresctly insured, you kaow where you'll | il disaster takes a whack af your It you're stand Possessions. sever ftake any chances on guessing al insurance protection.
