It believes when an organization reaches the point where it cannot remain in business on its own initiative, it is time for it to grace- fully retire and leave the field open to those who can carry on without the aid of petitions. It also believes when a business cannot exist without tearing down other businesses in its own field at attempting to dictate to other directly non-competitive business, it is ini- mical to the best interest of any community. 2—The Gray line has never had nor sought a franchise with the Alaska Steam- ship Company for the sale of its tieckets aboard its boats. The Alaska Line, however, along with other steamship lines operating to Juneau, permitted its pursers to sell Men- denhall Glacier Tour tickets for the accomo- dation of Alaska tourists. This was done for years before the Gray Line entered the local field. During that period, however, tourists were being dropped at the Nugget Shop for a cash consideration. As was natural, therefore, no very strenuous protest was entered. 3—The Gray Line does not believe that the Alaska Steamship company has been persuaded that it is none of its concern whether or not the tourists make the Men- denhall Glacier Trip. It is convinced the Alaska Line, in harmony with everyone in- terested in Alaska, does agree that this Glacier Tour is one of the Highlights of the entire Alaska Tour, and one that is becom- ing more and more widely known and in- creasingly popular among tourists. 4—The Gray Line is not now trying and never has attempted to create a tourist trade (Paid advertisement) command .of its designer, Dr. Hugo Died; Milo Reno, militant cham- pion of the farmers' rights, at the age of 70.

S e e MEN AND EQUIPMENT OFF FOR WESTWARD| Toasting a tea leaf develops extra flavor- delicious delicate flavors you otherwise monopoly in Juneau. But by the _same token it will not for cash or other considera- tien help tc give the Nugget Sh_op an edge over its competitors by establishing there a terminal for buses returning from the gla- cier, thereby s ting to create just such a monopoly as it so strenuously objects to on paper. 5—The Gray Line realizes that compe- tition in the transportation field is both necessary and advisable for the highest pub- lic interest. This, also, applies to such en- terprises as curio stores. 6—The only promise the Gray Line makes in its service is to give the tourists the kind of a trip to the glacier toswhich they are justly entitled, and to discharge them at a point, or points, most fair to the mer- chants of Juneau as a whole. 7—The Gray Line does not agree to the view, openly expressed in some quarters, that tourists should not be permitted to visit the Alaska Territorial Museum. It is cer- tain all Juneau citizens, interested in the community and Territory, take a civic pride in the Museum. 8—The Gray Line employs all local drivers' who spend their money in Juneau, and are capable of making the Glacier Trip fast enough to give the tourists just such a ride as they have paid for, and to return them in safety and comfort, e 9—The Gray Line hag no criticism to offer any merchant writing to the Alaska Steamship Company in regard to this mat- ter. However, it does respectfully ask those who do se to make any suggestions they may offer in their letters fair to Juneau and to the Territory as a whole, and to every in- terest in the community, and not to any in- dividual business in particular.
