R bert E. Sheldon, Fairbanks
Democrat, will go to Juneau on
he first available plane to take
over executive directorship of
tiie Territorial Unemployment
Compensation office it was an
nounced in a public statement
from Harry Phillips. of Fair
banks, and Mrs. Mildred Her
mann, Juneau attorney, who
have been holding meetings of
the Unemployment Compensa
tion Commission since early last
week.
The appearance of Sheldon
will signal complete re-vamping
of the compensation set-up at
Juneau, the commissioners re
vealed. Under the new arrange
ment. they declared, two direct
ors will head ihe unemployment
compensation division of the of
fire respectfully. Sheldon will act
as chief of the office, to coord'"t
ate activities of these two div
isions.
Sharpe "Valued”
Phillips and Mrs. Hermann
said that so far as they are con
cerned Walter Sharpe, present,
director of the office, will remain
head of the unemployment com
pensation office. They declared
they considered him a valuable
man for this position. So far as
retention of Joe Flakne, as head
of the employment service, the
commissioners declined to state
thv-ir intentions. They said they
had not as yet considered a pet
ition from CIO mine workers at
Fairbanks for the removal of
Flakne.
Both Phillips and Mrs. Her
mann denied that Stuart Morri
son, special agent for the Feder
al Social Security Board, now in
Juneau, had anything to do with
their revision of the territorial
office set-up. Morrison has not
consulted with the directors, nor
has he appeared at a meeting of
the board, Phillips said. Both de
clared that the plan to re-vamp
the set-up was drafted by Robert
Bragaw and Dr. Noble Dick, for
mer commissioners, before their
recent resignation from the posts.
Sheldon, they said. was the
choice of Bragaw and Dr. Dick
for the executive directorship
and had been asked if he would
accept the appointment shortly
before the two men resigned.
Ex-Postmaster
Sheldon is former manager of
the McKinley Park Transporta
tion Company, recently taken
over by the Department of the
Interior, is former postmaster at
Fairbanks and former territorial i
legislator.
Following is the public state-,
ment signed by Phillips and Mrs.
Hermann:
“As originally written, this Act
which passed the Legislature in
the extraordinary session of
1937, calls for the apointment of
an Executive Director, charged
with the general administration
of the Act and of Dieetors for
each of the two branches of ser
vice contemplated by the Act:
the Employment Service, charg
ed with the duty of putting men
i> w an'.) the Tlnempl">ytnen'
C ''-•!> n > i n Service, charged
\v h the clutv of paving the em
ployees benefits who cannot be
put to work. Both of these Di
rectors were to be und. r th<
g neral supervision of the Ex
ecutive Director.
Work Increased
“In the early years of the op
eration of the Act, however, the
Executive Director has held the
office of Director of the Uncm
pl ,vment Compensation Service
ala. Inasmuch as the work of
administering the Act has vastly
increased since this set-up was
adopted, the Comission feels that
there should be a separation of
the duties of the Executive Dir
ector ai d the Director of the
Unemployment Comp ensation
S rvice. It has therefore acted to'
achieve this end.
“Robert E. Sheldon of Fair
banks has been apoisted Exec
utive Director of the Commission
and wil replace Walter P. Sharp
in that branch of the work. TJiis ,
appointment does not in the
slightest effect Mr. Sharp's posi
tic n as Director of the Unemploy j
ment Service, in which place, so
far as the Commission is con- '
cerscd, he will remain. The com
mission feels that Mr. Sharp has
done excellent work in this,
branch of the service and that
this department has been ably
and efficiently administered by
him. It has only the highest of
praise for him in this capacity.
I
Previous Plan
“In separating the two offices
previously held by Mr. Sharp,
the Commission has been guided
by the plan adopted by the pre
vious Commission members, Dr.
N Me Dick of Fairbanks and R.
S. Bragaw of Anchorage, who
had perfected the plan for the
set-up, and wired Mr. Sheldon
asking him if he wou’d accept
th > position of Executive Direct
or. They suddenly and unexpect,
edly resigned before their meet-1
ing was adjourned last fall with
out receiving his reply. The pres
ent Commission feels that the
former members of the Commis
sion, out of wisdom of several
years’ experience in Commission
matters acted with good judge
ment in planning this set-up and
that it can best serve the public
in’erest by putting it into opera
tion.
