Abstract
In [3], Kinoshita defined the notion of and he proved that each compact AR has In [4], Yonezawa gave some examples of not locally connected continua with f.p.p., but without In general, for each n=1,2,..., there is an n-dimensional continuum with f.p.p., but without such that is locally (n-2)-connected (see [4, Addendum]). In this note, we show that for each n-dimensional continuum X which is locally (n-1)-connected, X has f.p.p. if and only if X has
