WHAT ALASKA NEEDS
E. F. Jessen editor Seward Daily
Gateway, printed an editorial state
ment of Alaska’s needs for infor
mation of the visiting Congress
men. Foremost in importance is fu)'
Territorial form of government
such as other Territories had before
admission as states. Then: more at
tention to memorials and resolu
tions sent to Congress by Alaska
Legislatures. And next: lifting of
conservation ban which has throt
tled the Territory for years. Among
other recommendations are: sta
tioning of Coast Guard cutters
throughout entire winter as well as
summer, as every winter both men
and vessels are lost; reduction of
freight and passenger rates of Alas
ka Railorad, “Alaskans should not
be penalized for pioneering the
country;” a more generous policy
from Washington, D. C., vesting op
eration of the government-owned
railroad locally, “you have a first
-lass general manager, permit him
to run it.”
