> GREATEST POWER
ON EARTH
There is no power on
earth greater than the
American heritage, the
right to vote.
The candidates have all
presented the story in each
his own way, as to how he
could serve best in repre
senting the people, but in
the final analysis, it is up
to the voter to put in their
choice of candidate by vote.
Much has been said by
the various candidates to
inform the public that the
best interests of Alaska
was the top plank in each
platform, and now they
must rely upon the will of
the people for whom they
will serve, for their approv
al by vote.
The candidates are a
bout through proclaiming
individual capabilities and
the reasons they should be
chosen.
ft is the duty of each and
every citizen-resident of
Alaska, residing in the pre
cinct in which he should
