The A i i Peter Wood, pubw.uer of News- fklener and recent offender of Ju- ieau’s town fathers with a publish- fied statement in which he re(ermd to “the mossbacked economy” of Ju- neau, today stood before the Cham- ber of Commerce as guest speaker and defender of his opinions. It was not, however, a defensive speech that Mr. Wood, introduced as head of Juneau’s new “needle in- Fdustry” delivered. {’ “If 1 appear to tremble or quake as 1 speak,” began Mr. Wood, “the ¥ cause lies with thie proximity of the | New Year’s Eve celebration, and not because I stand bared to my opin- ¥jons before this august body.” | £ “It is true that in a recent edi- ticn of Newsletter I published the| fact that Juneau is comprised of ‘\‘ mossbacked economy. By that I| meant, and pointed out in the pub- lication that I meant, a graduated| or mature economy, in which there| is little or no potentialities for new . cpportunities and davelopments.| These potentialities, I firmly 'md honestly believe, lie in the interior| and not in Southeast Alaska | “I have been called before this| group in proof that Democracy op-‘ crates to allow a young and inex- perienced writed the right to de- fend his opoinions.
