Nothing is known about the bill. Representative Cole states that under the plan enlargement of local autonomy would be encouraged. (Autonomy is a congressman’s way of saying self-government.) This might mean electing our own governor and other officials which administer to the Territory’s local affairs but over whom the people of Alaska have no control. Many Alaskans, in view of the | Interior Department’s present “abgriginal rights” | program, would be in favor of transferring admin- |istration of the Territory to any other department. Mr. Harold Ickes W { LS (Ketchikan Chronicle) Most everyone in Alaska is disgusted at the stand Secretary Ickes is taking with respect to “aboriginal” fishing rights, and perturbed over the effect this controversy is having, and the worse effect it will 'have if Honest Harold gets his way, on non-develop- ‘mem of the Territory. Yet it's safe to say that a great many of those “v\)m are both disgusted and perturbed are New Deal- ers who support President Roosevelt’s every act, or | Demoerats cool to the New Deal but supporting the administration nevertheless on party grounds.
