AP0 T et ORI TERYAN Y e ECONOMY NEED| 1S GREAT, SAYS| PARKS' MESSAGE Governor Warns Lawmak- ers that Conditions Call for Serious Study (Continued from Page One.) be sufficient to provide funds that would be necessary y them on.” Expectations two years ago that the lowest point had been reached were not fulfilled. No improve- ment in economic conditions has oc- curred, “and we are now copirom- ed with a situation which is ever more grave and which will require greater sacrifices on the part of every one. Resources Are Unimpaired «Fortunately, our natural re- sources are unimpaired, our Op- portunities for development are greater than ever before and each one of us has an abiding faith in the future of Alaska. «We are certain that prosper- ity will return, and if we are skil- ful in the administration of our affairs we will be in an enviable position and able to take full ad- vantage of our opportunities in the future. We may well be proud that we are not in debt and that every dollar of our revenue may be expended for public purposes in- stead of interest on bonded indebt- edness. Can Balance Budget “We can baance our budget without impairing the efficiency of our necssary institutions. In doing this we must start every effort to provide assistance for dependent children, needy aged persons, and others who are destitute, to enable them, insofar as our resources will permit, to live in a dignified, self- respecting manner. Any other course would be inhuman and contrary to our traditions. “The future welfare of the Ter- ritory demands that we shall main- tain unimpaired the efficiency of our schools. To achieve these aims we must abandon many important but less necessary activities dur- ing the next two years.” Reviews General Conditions The Governor reviewed briefly, but graphically general conditions in the Territorial Government. He dealt with finances, which, he said, are less satisfactory than two years ago; with delinquent taxes, con- stituting an inconsiderable sum; with taxation, declaring there was no need for increasing taxes if appropriations were curbed; reve- nues, that have been declining for some four years. He mentioned briefly the budget, which will be submitted later in detailed form carrying specific esti- mates for every activity. He disfavored immediate con- struction of a new Home for Pio- neers, saying it would be unwise at this time due to economic and financial stress. He renewed sug- gestions for revising the method of granting pensions. Change in Systems Gov. Parks strongly recommend- ed changing the system'of admin- istering relief of destitution. He urged that this work be placed solely in the hands of the Gov- ernor, empowering him to enter into agreements with municipal authorities throughout the Terri- tory and requiring them to co- operate by at least matching Ter- ritorial funds expended for the purpose. He again urged the wisdom of taking the Office of Commission- er of Education out of partisan politics. He recommended that ru- ral schools be required to defray at least a portion of their costs, and that incorporated schoo]l dis- tricts be formed of areas within and adjacent to incorporated towns, to lessen the cost of edu- HOUSE DRESSES in fast color prints $1.25 Sizes 14 to 48 BIG APRONS at 35¢ Fast Colors 4.
