Alaska Delegate A. J. Dimond
Dimond To Ask

Priorities

Alaska Delegate Believes U. S.
Entry Into War Appears
‘Inevitable’
! -
j Step by step with the mush
rooming expansion of Alaska’s
; military facilities, constant ef-'
I forts are continuing in Washing
| ton toward securing priorities
; ratings to permit maintenance of
! the Interior’s key industry—gold
mining — on normal production
footing.
This assurance was voiced yes
terday in Fairbanks by Anthony
J. Dimond, Territorial delegate
to Congress, with his prediction
that the $133,000,030 already ap
propriated for Alaska defense
; projects will be at least dupli
l cated within the coming year.
Troops, Bases Promised
Forty thousand troops and bas
1 es to expedite the operation of
at least 200 airplanes constitute
a partial goal for the arming of
the United States’ northern out
! post as the opinion in Washing
1 ton official circles — shared and
expressed by Delegate Dimond—
grows that this nation’s entry
. into war is inevitable.
Fishing Safe
Little fear need be felt for cur
i tailment of materials and equip
| ment for coastal Alaska’s im
mense salmon and halibut indus
] tries, Dimond believed, because
; these commodities are in wide
| spread demand as wartime ra
] tions.
During 10 days in Alaska, trav
eling most of the time with Gov
i ernor Gruening and J. J. Ryan,
assistant Director of civilian de
j fense tor the Territory, Delegate
Dimond has visited Juneau, Cor
dova, his home city of Valdex,
Seward and Anchorage.
Flying South
Dimond, the governor, and Jul
ius Edelstein, from the Washing,
ton D. C., bureau of the United
I Press, boarded the personally- \
owned Grumman amphibion of
J. J. Ryan yesterday to fly south
from Fairbanks. Ryan and his |
co-pilot Robert Jarosz, ifly the
twin-motored craft.
Delegate Dimond adrdessed A1
aska radio listeners Wednesday
l night from the studios of Station
• KFAR, where he was interview
j ed by Bud Foster.
The Nugget will print the high
; lights of his address in the next

News Items
The Fire Department answer
ed a call this forenoon at the
former Rowe office building, just
west of Polets Store. The cause
of the fire was a short circuit in
the wiring betwen the floors. No
damage was reported.
This near fire brings to mind
the big fire of 1934 when the
business section of Nome was
burned down. In 1934, it was on
September 17, that a short cir
cuit started the conflagration.
A wind was blowing then with
about the same velocity and from
the same direction as today.
