We replied to the informants that we were not there for the purpose o1 endorsing Gruening and we in- formed them that we were there for the endorsement of an Alaskan for the office of Governor, we were not interested in a pet-bagger.” | Upon arrival of all the delegates, the Convention was called to order and the first thing after organiz- ing was the keynote speech by Gruening. It was evident to the regular Democrats of the Territory that he had control of the entire conventicn and the platform adopted at the convention confirms this statement. “car- I with YVONNE DeCARLO ROD CAMERON DAVID BRUCE WALTER SLEZAK ALBERT DEKKER| Marjorie Rombeau ).

I immediately opposed that xe\ululmn and informed them that they were stultifying themselfes | and their own platform because the first plank was endorsing Harry Truman as President and the sec- ond plank was to make the office of Governor elective in the Terri- tory. Therefore, no further action was taken on the resolution in question at this time, BUT at the conclusion of all business to comei before the convention and just be- | fore adjournment, the chairman u(k the convention, Ralph Rivers, read | the resolution endcrsing Gruening for the governorship of Alaska and made a motion that it be adopted. Those opposed to such a resolution made a motion to amend the reso- {lution by inserting the name of | Tony Dimond in place of Ernest Gruening but such a motion was {ruled out of order by the chair- man. We appealed from the rul- ing of the chair but lost our ap- peal. The motion was then or- jdered put to a vote and at this | point we walked out.
