THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, THURSDAY, JAN. 14, Full Text of Governor’s Message to Legislature (Continued from Page Five) “7. Assist in planning favorable mining districts. “In order to provide an adequate organization to take care of these necessary functions an ap- propriation of $35,000 a year would have to be made by the Legislature. I think that you will agree that such an amount is amply lu~tlficd when the benefits to be gained are considered.” LIQUOR PROBLEM The operation of the Liquor Laws in Alaska is one that should receive your attention, Generally speaking, 1 believe the Liqum' Board has done a good job well. However, this is a matter for the Legislature to decide. Most of the complaints about the liquor situation have been aimed at the lack of enforcement of the laws and regulations rather than the system itself. It is fair to say, however, that these complaints are coming less fre- quem]\' than formerly. As time has gone on the earnestness | and integrity of the Liquor Board has gotten greater and | greater recognition. Information has caused the people| to understand more clearly that the I,lqum 3oard has| earnestly striven to be fair and to work in the interest of the public welfare. There has been no scandal con- nected with any phase of the situation. The public has had a square deal and so have those engaged in the | liquor business. I am still convinced that the license system is far better than would be Territorial or muni- cipal liquor stores. Under the tem prevailing in A the dealer purchases the brands of liquor and pay price that his trade indicates. The business is being con- ducted as nearly as possible like any other commercial | s. There are some things that ought to be determ-| One of these is the status of the Indians and their | to purchase and use, liquor. Lawyers have road building to ined. eligibility differed as to whether the Liquor Board would have the| authority to refuse the sale of liguor to Indians. Opinions | differ among both Indians and Whites as to the proper method to pursue in this matter. The argument is ad- vanced by many that Indians do not know how to handle | liquor, and, therefore, should not be permitted to have it.| Other arguments have been advanced by people of equal LET ME SEE --HOW DOES THET Ol SONG-BALLAT RUN 22 OH--TO BE SHORE- MMM - LA-LA-- MID TH' PLEASURES AN' PAL-LACES HAAN'T(F NARY NOTHER PLACE ! SING HIT WUNST MORE, AUNTIE-- HIT MAKES ME FEEL SO WONDERFULLY tion with other road making agencies. This work should be continued. PIONEERS’ HOME Pioncers’ Home is an institution in which all Als take just pride. It was established by the first|” Terr Legislature and has more than |u~(mcd the! action of those who established it. The Pioneers’ Home | Building Commission completed the new fine Home dur-| ing the biennium and the result is a notable structure, It i well equipped and a credit to the Territory. architecturally, convenient in arrangement in a modern and effective way. The management of the Home has been efficient, humane and met a large way the purposes of the various Territorial Legislatures. The Building Commissioners and the management of the Home| are entitled to the wngmtul\'mxh of the people for thej painstaking and earnestness of their performances. SCHOOLS 1 lewmmuul liberal appropriations for the support of | schools. There are still a large number from fifteen to thirty children of school age which h no schools. The heads of the Federal school system and the Territorial school system are cooperating in an effort to provide educational facilities for the children, but in order to do so, it will require larger appropriations for the operation of rural schools. ave intelligence, sincerity and good faith that it is better for| the Indians and Eskimos to purchase good liquor legally | than to drink poisonous home brews and moonshine. This | is a question that I commend to the thoughtful attention of the Legislature. I don’t see where Territorial Liquor | stores could improve this situation. I do not see that it! would be helped by having precinct elections on the ques-| tion as to whether or not licenses should or should not| be granted. I feel that local option would probably not | produce results that would justify the expense of con- | ducting the elections. Local option has never been wholly | satisfactory. Usually when one precinct votes dry, another \ precinct not far distant votes wet, and those in the dry precinet are permitted to buy their liquor in a wet! precinct. The Liquor Board’s enforcement organization is not large enough to police the entire Territory as rigidly as it should be policed, and it has not always had the coopera-| tion of other law enforcement agencies. This also is a matter which should receive the thought and consideration of the Legislature. I believe the enforcement personnel should be increased. | The Liquor Board will file a comprehensive report on this whole question, and I commend it to your thnught- ful consideration. FUR FARMS ‘ I believe there should be two or more L\D?rlm(’l](dl‘ fur farms in Alaska with experts at their head who| could carry on experimentation in all phases of lhdt‘ industry. This is a project that ecould very profitably em-! ploy both Territorial and Federal money. The Biological Survey would be a suitable organization to carry on the| work. The Biclogical Survey is willing to undertake this | task but so far has been unable to secure funds from | Congre: It is possible that the Territory might get! the funds by setting up a Public Works project for thatl purpose. While the law providing a $20.00 bounty on wolves | and coyotes is costing more than previously, and there is already a deficiency in the fund created by the last! appropriation for that purpo\L, it would I think be unwise | to reduce the bounty. I think the necessary dpproprlatlon’ should be made. I just received a telegram from J. Sidney Rood, Actmg‘ f}unem] Superintendent of the Reindeer Service, in whlchi e says: “Wolves undoubtedly killing thousand rein- deer annually. Selawik herd which counted twelve thousand reindeer two years ago now reported by Government teacher reduced less five thou- sand. Although Selawik situation worst, wolf problem is serious in most herds. Estimated ten thousand natives depend on reindeer between Kodiak and Barter Island as source food, clothing. Legislators should be urged make every possible effort maintain bounty at present figure and co- operate Federal agencies fullest extent eradicat- ing wolf menace.” | TOURIST TRAVEL The Territory ought to bear In mind the tourist travel. It has proved over and over again that tourists | provide a valuable asset to any country. Last year wit- nessed the largest tourist travel to Alaska in the history of the Territory. This is ample proof -that our attrac- tions for tourists are very great. Many of the sections of this and other countries have regular tourist bureaus to promote tourist travel. The Legislature could very well maintain such a bureau. It has sustained the Alaska Chamber of Commerce largely with that in mind and in view of that fact the Alaska Chamber of Commerce has done excellent work in cooperation with other organiza- tions and commercial industries in promoting travel to the Territory. In this connection, I call your attention to the several World’s Fa~> planned and being planned. I mention par- ticularly the proposed San Francisco celebration fair bemg.planned to commemorate the completion of San Francisco’s two great bridges in 1939 and the great under- taking at New York. I wish the Legislature would con- sider whether or not that Alaska should be represented at these Fairs. If the decision is in the affirmative, an appropriation should be sufficiently large to permit the erection of suitable structures to house adequate exhibits and proper organizations to manage ‘the buildings and ex- hibits. This matter will be presented to the Legnlature in more detailed form during the progress of the session. TERRITORIAL HIGHWAY COMMISSION There should be a liberal appropriation to the Terri- torial Highway Commission for roads, airfields and kindred projects. Under the direction of the Territorial Highway Commissioner, good work has been- done during the last biennium on road projects and airfields. Many of these have been to meet immediate necessities and for coopera- | {troduced the following Some of our smaller cities are unfortunately as far as industries are concerned and have much diff in mdmtdmmgr their schools. Some r E be made in the refund system whereby th«w cities could be given more help. The vocatioinal work for high sechool ]‘ll})ll\ along practical lin provided last Legislature is now \\("l umlm v and should be! given liberal support. While is yet too early to realize results, it stands to reason nml money expended to; educate people along practical lines will eventually be highly beneficial to the Territory. UNIVERSITY OF ALASKA I commend to the consideration of the Legislature the University of Alaska. "It is one of our major Territorial| institutions. It is doing splendid work and becoming more useful every year. It must not be permitted to deteriorate, | but must be aided to bring forth further and better development. Already the graduate students of the Uni- versity of Alaska are becoming felt in the progress of the Territory. COOPERATION It is proper before closing to say that there has been | a continuation of splendid cooperation between the various | Territorial and Federal offices and boards functioning in the Territory and also between the officials of the Terri- tory and those in the Federal Government in Washington. I look forward with not a little pleasure in the oppor-| tunity of umpvmtmg with the Legisature during its| Session. It is my desire to aid in any way possible and as I said to the Legislature two years ago, let us all remember that Alaska is one Territory and her people are one people.
