I further realize that they will not meet with the approval of a great many of my fellow citizens, but I admire them for tating their beliefs and only ask that I receive the same measure of fairness that is extended to them. It is true that during the 1935 session of the legislature I voted for a memorial endorsing the one-house system. Since giving more thought to this important mat- ter, however, at the invitation of the editor of The Fishing News I am exercising the rights democracy allows its citizens to state their opinions. “A’' bicdmeral legislature protects the people against 'ill-considered legislation and hasty action promulgated by interested minorities attempting to further their selfish interests. “It 'destroys the evil effects of sudden and strong excitement, and from precipitous meas- ures springing from passion and prejudice which review of it by different minds. “There is no better prevention from encroach- ment on the constitutional rights of the people than a bicameral legislature when there is a tendency for legislators to over-leap the com- mon functions of legislation from passion, from ambition, from inadvertdance, from the preval- ence of factions, or from the strong influence of private interests. It is well to have a barrier that will balance these various interests against each other. “Distances in Alaska very often prevent proper information on bills to reach the people before they have passed one house. With a second Housé they hdve a better opportunity to register their objections or suggest amendments before the bill becomes law. “Governor Cochrane of Nebraska said it would take several terms to find out ‘whether unicarheral was a benefit or a handicap after the first uni- cameral session, making it appear that there is no unnecessary haste in Alaska while we have a testing laboratory in Nebraska which a score of other states are watching before acting.

A hasty decision is not so likely to proceed when it has to undergo the deliberation and probably the' jealous and critical revision of another body sitting in a different place and under better advantage to avoid prepossession of the other branch. “The legislatures of Penhsylvania and Georgia originally had a single house. The instability and recent session of Nebraska’s newly inaugurated unicameral legislature, the ratification of the Child Labor Amendment of the United States was defeated. While attention should not be centered entirely on the mistakes made by Ne- braska’s new institution, it is felt that this was a major one and worthy of comment. “From a point of economy, the unicameral idea does not justify the possible savings, in view of the dangers inherent in its adoption. “Kennecott engineers and other en- gineers have seen them and found the ore all that could be asked for,| | but about 100 miles of railroad| | would have to be built to develop| | them, | | “That would cost about four mil-| lion dollars,” Millett said one en- gineer told him, adding, “But that's| about all it cost to build a couple of | the Kennecott’s Copper River and Northwestern bridges.” Good Ore passion_that marked their proceedings were very visible at the time, and in subsequent reform of their constitutions the people were so sensible to these defeets that in both legislatures a senate was introduced. “To say that bicameralism allows passing the buck from one house to the other is merely a red herring, aimed to deceive the people and a state- ment not borne out by facts. | three percent to 10 percent |ore to most mining men—and The ore which Millett deseribed, | | has copper contents varying from | good i m “Conceding there may he 'some merits to a unicameral legislature, thé passage of the refer- endum endorsing it in no way tells the voters on ‘the' principle of liberty was almost destroyed what kind of form the bill will take when it until anbther deliberative body was formed.
