THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIR “ALL THE NEWS ALL THE TIME” ~ VOL. XLVIL, NO. 7244, HARMONY FLITS OUT AS 6. 0. P. GETS UNDERWAY Chairman White Still in Control After Split Re- vealed in Ranks GRGANIZATION MAN TEMPORARY CHAIRMAN Personal F(;.l—d_ Breaks Out Between Arnold and Rasmuson The keynote speech to have been delivered tonight at 8 o'~ clock by Judge H. B. LeFevre has been postponed until to- morrow night at the same hour, it was announced this afternoon. The Alaska Republican chariof pulled in on Douglas this morning at 10 o'clock, got itself nicely mired in the political puddle over the question of just who is driving the Grand Old Party bus in the Terri- tory, and, finally, as the noon whis- tle blew, Territorial Chairman Al- bert White was still revealed in the driver’'s seat. The organization's temporary chairman, E. E. Eng- strom, had been elected by the nar- row vote of 21 to 16. Hardly had the delegates as- sembled in the I. O. O. F. hall in Douglas and Territorial Chairman given an account of his steward- ship when the little bird of widely heralded Republican tradition, har- mony, spread his wings and took himself away from there. He had seen his rival, tempest, enter the portal. Personal Feud The fireworks which reached the personal level started under a slow. bl just as Howard Stabler had placed in nomination the name of Mr. Engstrom, President of the’ Ju- neau-Douglas Young Men's Repub- lican club, for the post of tempo- rary chairman. It met a quick spc— ond from Henry Benson, organizer of the Club, and then W. C. Arnold of Ketchikan, who not only is a delegate from the First City but carries the 11 proxies from the Sec- ond Division, demanded to know what procedure was being followed in voting on temporary chairman. Roberts Rules of Order happened to be in somebody’s pocket and Cen- tral Committee Secretary Frank Foster began reading a passage on the conduct of mass meetings. Andrew Nerland of Fairbanks, who carries all the proxies for the Fourth Division, declared he was in ~omplete accord on regulations for mass meetings but he was under the impression this was a Repub- lican convention and he most em- phatically objected to any proced- ure where the voice of each Divi- sion could not be heard. He at once drew support from Karl Theile of Wrangell, H. L. Faulkner, R. E. Robertson, Grover Winn, all of Ju- neau, and Charles Goodall of Cor- dova. After several extemporaneous speeches in which plea was made for “Fair Play”, and against this “steamroller tactics,” Mr. Goodall came back with the nomination of Clyde Ellis, of Anchorage, delegate from the Third. “Second the motion,” shouted Eli Lindstrom. Wants Fair Play Mr. Nerland was on his feet again, | suggesting that in view of the ar- gument, he believed the only fair way was to appoint a man from each of the four Divisions and let them decide on the temporary chairman. Again Mr. Foster point- ed out that the way to proceed was to have a vote of only those dele- gates actually in the hall and eli- minate proxies. Immediately the uproar broke out again. “I'm-not going to be a pary to any action where every Division is not given representation,” declared Karl Theile. g “I take the same position,” echoed | Mr. Robertson, Mr. Faulkner and several others. “Just what happened at this cen- tral committee meeting last night we are hearing so much about?” demanded Grover Winn. “Isn’t there a record of iiiose proceedings so we can see just what was done?” Chairman White -said there was, “but the notes haven't been trans- seribed.” Move To Refer: “Then I move that this matter be referred back to the Central Com- mittee where it belongs to decide tTemponry Chairman E. E. Eng- —_— this convention,” declared Winn. “Second the motion,” shouted Mr.} Theile. “Now where are we?” Mr. White to Mr. Foster. | “I was at this meeting last mght,"‘; put in Mr. Arnold again, “and I did not understand that procedure was decided on. In fact, it seems to‘ me nothing was done about it.”| At this point he challenged some of he actions of National Committee- | man E. A. Rasmuson. The latter gentleman was imme- iiately on his feet. “Mr. Arnold s trying to make a personal feud »f this,” he declared. “I demarfd something be done tbout my motion,” shouted Mr. winn. “Have I got a voice in this :onvention, or haven't 12" “All those in favor of Mr. Winn's notion to refer back vote aye,” de- lared Mr. White. “There was a chorus of “ayes.” He asked for the negative; anoth- r chorus, this time of “nos.” “The nos have it,” declared the chairman. whispered | | Bedlam Shouts that shook the rafters of he lodge room resounded througl he building as half a dozen were or heir feet challenging the decision “What kind of a racket is this? Jow do you get that way? Huh! steam roller stuff.* From severa jirections sallied the charges. “I demand a standing houted some one: Again bedlam broke loose. “Now who is going to decide on vho can vote?” asked Mr. Faulkner ‘We are right back where we startec trom. There are people in this 1all who are not delegates, in fact ome from the opposition party What is to keep them from voting? Don’t Like It Mr. Nerland was on his fleet, with ‘I don't like this,” and again pro- esting against what he believed tc Je denying all Divisions the right tc se heard. “If the chairman will declare a ive-minute recess I'll' ask all the ‘elegates to give me their names nd then we can vote by roll call,’ ffered Mr. Foster. The smoke was etting pretty thick in the hall by his time, and it was so decided. Reconvening, the battle brgke ou’ 1gain, but the vote was finally tak- n of just those present and showed )1 against referring the questior >ack and 19 for it. The die hac seen cast. The White organizatior vas very definitely in charge of thc vote,’ JOBLESS MEN GET WARNING ABOUT ALASKA Tacoma to Aid in Stopping| Influx to Northland— | Chamber Meeting With regard to efforts of the Ju- neau Chamber of Commerce to cor- rect the situation being created by the great influx of unemployed per- | sons without funds to the Territory.‘ a letter from C. C. Garland, Chair- | man of the Alaska Development | Committee of the Tacoma Chamber | of Commerce, in reply to a telegram' from the local organization was read at the Chamber of Commerce lun- cheon in the Terminal Cafe today by acting secretary John Keyser. “On receipt of your telegram,” the letter stated, “We gave the papers of this city a story as you suggested, and gave the proposition | as much pubflcny as we could get| o check the unemployed going to Alaska. “It has been our custom to pre- ent people going to Alaska for em- ployment uniless they had ample, funds to pay their way both ways| and to live until such time as they could get a job. Under al circumstances we have dis and tried to prevent labor to Alaska and will so continue until the situation changes.” Mail Contract Correspondence regarding exten- ion of the Northland Transporta- ion Company mail contract through the summer months was also read it the luncheon, including a letter from Alaska Delegate Anthony J. Dimond to Hon. Harllee Branch, Second Assistant Postmaster Gen- eral, Washington, D. C., in which Delegate Dimond stated: “I am much interested in having the best mail service given to the people of Southeast Alaska, and therefore re- quest that the contract of the Jorthland Transportation Company be extended if possible to cover the “ntire year.” Mr. Branch stated in his reply to Delegate Dimond: “During the sum- mer period the frequency of ser- vice by the Alaska Steamship Com- pany’s boats is materially increased, sonvention, at any rate, for the time Heing. Secret Ballot Secret ballot was then taken, al- owing none of the proxies to vote. and Mr. Engstrom defeated Mr. Ellis for temporary chairman by a vote of 21 to 16. Effort was made 5y Mr. Winn, Mr. Robertson and Mr. Faulkner to be allowed to vote as they held proxies, but the action failed. They did, however, have heir protest officially recorded in he minutes and Mr. Arnold was al- ‘owed to have spread on the minutes his statement that he carried 11 oroxies from Nome and that Na- tional Committeeman E. A. Rasmu- son by voting against referring the arocedure question to the Central committee had definitely denied the Second Division right to be heard as there was no representative in per- son. The National Committeeman 2xplained that the reason he voted no was because he was on the cen- tral committee and’did not want to decide such a matter, rather feeling it was up to the convention. He declared the Second Division had no representative on the committee until he had appointed O. S. Weav- or, who had no representative present. Mr. Arnold countered that he car- ried full authority from Mr. Weav- er to act for him. Further trouble threatened, but Mr, Winn moved that a committee of two be appointed to escort Mr. Engstrom to the roster. Clyde Ellis, the other nominee, finally proved to be the committee of two and did the honors with proper gestures. Recess until 1:30 was taken imme- diately afterward: Afternoon 'Session While the battle continued this afternoon, the delegates finally got a credential committee appointed with J. Lindley Green of Anchorage as chairman and W. H. Caswell of Ketchikan, L. W. Kilburn of Doug- las, H. D. Stabler of Juneau and Ronald Lister of Juneau serving with him. A bitter verbal fight ensued before strom named the committee, Terri- torial Chairman White announcing that he was entering protests against the delegates from Nome, Fairbanks, Petersburg and Salmon Creek. The Anti-White faction im- mediately countered and both Ar- thur W. Fox of Juneau and Dr. R. N. Seruby of Wrangell announced on how we are going to conduct{ , (Continued on Page Three) and with the supplemental service provided by the Canadian steamers operating via Ketchikan to Skag- way, it is considered that reasonably adequate supply is afforded to the southeast section of the Territory.

There have been comparativ- ely few mechanics trained within the last twenty years. partly because of the discourage- ment of the apprentice system, and partly as a result of the depression; during which period it wag of 1o | use for the sons of tradesmen to learn their fathers' trades.

Contrary to widely pub- lished reports, there is no banditry in Mexico, he said, but added “Ex- cept that one fellow who took my fountain pen.” Mr. Warrack reported that he had no trouble in driving over the only road entering Mexico at the present time, but remarked that some of the tourists from level states com- plained about it.
