So does everyone else in Southeastern Alaska, and so did the majority of our 1949 Legislature, except G. E. ALMQUIST, who wants you to elect him to the Senate on April 25. The Legislature for the most part did everything possible to give incentive to the installation of pulp mills, but Almquist voted against the amendment to House Bill 10, esablishing a busi- ness license system, which would encourage pulp mills to establish in Alaska. Fortunately, the other legislators were able to put over the induce- ment and the Territory’s reputation for foresightedness and progress was saved. BUT Almquist is asking you for your vote now for the Senate, and the rest’ of the Legislature cannot protect you by out-veting him this time. You will have to do it yourself. Jim Nolan, Frank Perairovich and Elton Engstrom are keenly aware that we need a PULP MILL, so vote for two of them for the Senate, but let Almquist go up to Palmer with the Capitol, which he voted to move from Juneau.
