Although political appointee Governor Gruening has apparently forgotten that he owes his job to the Democratic party organization, it appears that the party has not. Gruening and his clique have repeat- edly by-passed the regular Democratic organization in making political appointments; so often and so fla- grantly that the Central and Divisional committees have frequently been made to appear ridiculous. Democratic National Committeeman Howard Lyng, of Nome, has determined to call a halt to this Krem- lin-style dictatorship and has fired the opening zun in a campaign to restore Alaska’s political reins the people. Lyng learned that George Sundborg proached Attorney General J. Gerald Williams on the subject of the Second Division judgeship recently vacated by Secretary of Alaska Joe Kehoe. ably in the course of his thousand dollars a month has ap- job as general manager of the Alaska Development | s | (Henry County, Board; Sundborg ds said to have inquired of Willlams whether he would be interested in the Nome bench appointment, the inference being that it was his if he wanted it. In blistering letter - to Sundborg, National Committeeman Lyng ‘scored Gruening interference with party «matters and stated unequivocally that a Second Division appointments were the concern of | the Second Division Democratic Committee. The let- ter follows, in part: “For your information, I have notified Delegate Bartlett, William A. Boyle, Chairman Democratic Na- tional Committee, Senawr O'Muhoney.

We are inclined to wonder whether administration circles are considering Williams for the Nome judge- in recognitfon of his ability and integrity or merely to remove him from the post these qualities have so long thwarted absolute dictatorship.
