REPUBLICAN PLATFORM IN ALASKA
1— We advocate the return of
our people to the principles of
Government established by the
Constitution of the United States
of America and by the Republican
Party in its time-honored history
in the conduct of National affairs.
2— AMENDMENT OF OR
GANIC ACT. We recommend
that the Organic Act of the Terri
tory be amended so as to provide
for the election of the Governor
and of the Secretary of the Terri
tory of Alaska by the people, and
also to give to the people of the
Territory full control of all its
natural resources and the collec
tion of all revenues therefrom, in
cluding the revenues from the
Fur Seal Islands.
3— PRESENT NATIONAL AD
MINISTRATION CONDEMNED.
We condemn the administration
of President Franklin D. Roose
velt and the New Deal as subver
sive of Constitutional principles,
opposed to the liberties of our
citizens, and contrary to all those
things which guarantee the free
dom of our people. We particular
ly denounce the present policy of
the Democratic Administration in
seeking, through the Secretary of
the Interior, to establish a one
man dictatorial government for
the Territory, substituting reg
ulations for law. The present state
of development of the Territory
has been brought about by the
efforts of the people who have
settled here of their own free will
and accord, expended their cap
ital, and directed their energies
toward such development, and by
the people’s participation in the
limited form of Government
wdiich the Organic Act has per
mitted. The policy of the present
administration in substitution reg
ulations for law and subjecting
the people to the dictatorial dom
ination of one man in Washington
will quickly mean ruination of all
industries in the Territory and
will result in suppression of init
iative and eventual bankruptcy of
the Alaskan people.
