And Fairbanks and her vast interior tributary area have many specific needs. Many of these needs have been expressed before. The more urgent of them should be forcibly brought to the attention of the leg- islators again. It is well to remember that many of the members of congress are newly elected and needs be informed as to what the Territory and this region in particular needs. Alaska’s delegate to congress, her friends in the western states and other congressional members, if they are to work effectively for Alaska, must have fresh information on which to proceed. The legislators at Juneau also need fresh information and up-to-date minute recom- mendations and support. Here is the chance for the representative organizations of Fairbanks and other Alaskan centers to make good with new petitions and resolutions.
