Walker, who arrived in Juneau from Ket- chikan early Sunday morning on the Bureau of Fisheries vessel Crane, has expressed a new thought in re- gard to the Territory's position on Social Security. Senator Walker's idea is that all persons employed in the Territory, including those in seasonal work, |shall be taxed to build up a fund |for the Territory from which only such persons a year's residence benefit. “The seasonal laborers come into| who have established in Alaska can [they can,” Senator Walker stated. “It is not discriminating to tax them the only little girl in the|for the Territory’s benefit, and the. plmre they would pay in would en- ble the Territory to distribute pnefits to its citizens much larger than otherwise.” Is Senior Member Senator Walker, who is better known to his friends in Ketchikan, where he was Mayor from 1930 to 1932, as “Doc,” was elected to the Senate of the Territorial Legisla- ture in 1932, and re-elected last No- vember, making him the Senior | Senator of the body this year. | Senator Walker stated that all his family is fine, including his daugh- ter, at the University of Alaska. Ketchikan is in excellent sivipe, considering the strike and the sea- son, Senator Walker declared.
