Rep. ^allgren
Pass Thru Nome
On V av Kougarok
Constituting a one-man van
guard for a probable small par
ade of United States legislators
into the Territory, Congressman
Mon C. Wallgren, representative
from the second district of the
Skate of Washington, arrived
Nome Monday via PAA Electra
and left for the Kougarok the
same day.
In Alaska primarily to attend
fisheries hearings as member of
the Merchant Marine and Fisher
ies Committee Congressman Wall
gren said numerous other repre
sentatives have stated their in
tentions of visiting Alaska late
this summer.
The Washington representative
arrived here with a traveling
companion, Clyde Shrauger of
Mount Vernon. They are part
ners in mining operations.
Uis present tour is the congress
man’s first trip to Alaska.
“I have lived in Washington 37
years,” he said, “and I have been
closely associated with so many
Alaskans that I felt I had an ac
quaintanship with the Territory.
“My eyes are now opened.”
Conditions he has found in A1
aska have made him appreciative ■
of what it must mean to Outsid
ers who have no notion whatso-!
ever as to life and industry in
the Territory to see the country,
N he said.
“To the world at large, Alaska
is still unfortunately pictured as
barren stretches of snow and ice. I
“I hope the people of Alaska I
know that they can always de- i
pend upon the six congressional j
delegates from Washington for1
support in Wahington. D.C., I |
<am sure the records of the dele- j
gation will show that it has al-1
ways been favorable to the inter'
tests of the Territory.”
The distinguished visitor spoke
high commendation for the work
of Delegate Anthony Dimond.
"He has been doing wonderful
work, and should be appreciated
by the people of the Territory.’
He expects to be in Anchorage
for the fisheries hearings on the
2nd of September.
SEE KINGSPORT
AS MODEL TOWN
NEW YORK. July 22—A “lool
at” Kingsport, Tenn., was giver
by Governor Cooper of Tennes
see as he closed a speech this
afternoon at the Tennessee Day
celebration at the World’s Fair
“That industrial community is
a model for the world,” he de
clared. "There as 36,000 people
living in Kingsport and its su
burbs. Most of them are home
owners. Yet in the past 12 years
only three families have lost
their homes. Though some of the
largest industrial plants in the
country are there, the town has
never known a strike. It has nev
er had a business failure.
“Kingsport gained 10 per cent
a year all through the depression
and it builds a school house ev
ery year. The reason for thal
ideal situation is that everything
is planned, the numerous indus
tries are diversified and every
worker gets a fair wage for an
honest day’s work. There is nc
other town on earth with a re
cord like that of Kingsport oi
where such a large percentage
of the people ae happy. Kings
port is attracting the attention
of the country. It is another Ten
nessee contribution to progress
and happiness.”
