TO THE VOTERS OF THE FIRST DIVISION TERRITORY OF ALASKA Do Not Lose the Services of a Good Legislator Senator Norman R. (Doc) Walker consented to run for re-election at the request of various groups, after he had decided not to seek re-election. He felt after 16 years in the legislature plus 2 terms as Mayor of Ketchikan that he should devote more time to his business. Many pecple and groups interested in education, public health and an equitable tax law, felt that he should serve one more term to complete the good work that he had already started, as well as add his valuable experience as a legislator in the next important session. He has made an excellent record in the past due to werking long hours and listening to the needs of the people. time and found NOT wanting. He has, in addition, been sgbjecte(l to unfair and false charges. has not deemed them cf sufficient importance to answer, believing the record would justify his actions. Many of his bills have met the severest test of He It is unfortunate that his great record is not known to many people and very often they listen to his defamers, who would bring about his defeat because of some small personal or petty reason. has defeated some special legislation that he did not deem in the public His record shows that he has never supported a bill that would intetrest. benefit him personally.
