Approximately 50 people heard Mrs. Mernice Murphy, guest speak- er of the evening, in a most in- spiring talk highlighted by stories of the Indians of New Mexico and Arizona, to whom Lincoln was their great ideal. Ray Milligan, member of the Fi- nance committee, of Ketchikan, was introduced and brought greet- ings from his fellow-members in the home town. Preceding Mrs. Murphy were talks by Elton Engstrom, who read the party platform as outlined at the Anchorage convention, and by Al- bert White, member of the Finance ecommittee. R. E. Robertson, when called upon for a talk, urged all candidates for to make known their own platforms, be- liefs and principles, ‘between now and the primary election, pointing out that this is the only way for the general public to make a wise choice between candidates.
