VISIT OUR UPSTAIRS BARGAIN DEPARTMENT THE DAILY ALASKA EMRIRE, THURSDAY, APRIL 23, 1936. 3 s Fashions e Frocks DEMO POLICIES Candidate, Alaska Legisla- ture, Gives Reasons. for Votets’ Support Kenneth Junge, who seeks nom- | ination in the primary elections Tuesday on the Democratic ticket for the Territorial Legislature, said today in an interview that he| heartily endorses the policies of President Roosevelt, Delegate Di- mond, and the platform of the Democratic Party of - Alaska as adopted at the 1936 Seward Con- vention. He stands for the abolition of fish traps and against the utiliza- tion of herring and other food fish for use other than for human con- sumption or bait purposes. Mr. Junge has the endorsement of the Young Peoples’ Democratic Club of Alaska, and if elected to the Legislature, he advises that he will try and represent, fairly| and adequately all classes of the electorate, and particularly to give voice to the plans and policies of the rapidly increasing population of younger people in the Territory. Eleven years ago Mr. Junge came to Alaska and has been a resident of the Territory since that time He has worked, during that time, as a fisherman, in sawmills, in the | mechanical department of the Danly Alaska Empire, and for the past itwo years has been a member of | the Police Department of the cn.v of Juneau. + Mr. Junge'isimatried and has one | small daugmer ¥ styles $25.00 $3.00 | | | | Cotton Fabrics Sizes 14 to 50 $2.00 New White Felt Hats $3.25 Shirley Temple Hats and Berets For Little Girls $2.0024 $1.00 - OF TERRITORY 1$1,014, 3!6 in Treasury— Governor Explains Ex- penditure Procedure At the end of the first quarter of | 1936, the Territory of Alaska had a cash balance of $1,014,316.70, or approximately three times the| amount on hand when the present | Administration took over three years ago, according to the quarterly re-| port of Territorial Treasurer Oscar | | Olson submitted to the Governor's (office. The amount is $35231.20 jmore than the same time a year ! ago. Substantial collection of taxes, both current and delinquent, is in 1the main responsible for the big bal- |ance, the report shows. A total of $76,640 was collected in license tax< ,es, $75250 of that amount from (fish traps. Beer and wine receipts | brought in $8,018.96 during the quar- |ter while hard liquor taxes netted | $7,641.82. || Collections of 1935 taxes amount- ed to $494,797.93 during the three months period and $10,040.63 came in from 1934 taxes. \ Despite the large amount of cash | in the Territorial coffers, it was explained by Gov. John W.: Troy that “only such money as was ap- | propriated by the last Legislature (can be expended for any purpose. Impression prevails in some sources, he said, that with such a large sum on hand the Territorial officers '|could spénd it for such things as might arise, but this is impossible under the law. Only monies that s Leading Departmer. Store” STUDENT HELD FOR DEATH OF SIX, RELEASED Manslaugliter and Reckiess Driving Charges Against 20-Year-Old Youth EVERETT, wasn. april 23 Trank E.

Slightly over $15,000 was set aside by the Legislature for pay- ing the bounty on wolves and coy- otes which was raised by the law- makers from $15 to $20. This sum has now been exhausted: and' -mo further bounties can be paid until the Legislature: makes -another ap- propriation next January when it neets.
