ECHO OF THE OLD ORDER
Just at a time when the entire nation is electrified
bv the phenomena of a leadership holding.the entile con
fidence of the people regardless of political affiliation,
and the force of this leadership is manifesting ltselt m a
general forward movement, Governor George A. Harks,
signalizes what may be his last message to the Legisla
ture by tossing a symposium of pessimism, olue ruin and
panic into the hands of the Legislators.
Interpreted in its broadest sense, the message sounds
like a pout. Or is he trying to do a Sampson act and pull
tJhe edifice down about the ears of his successoi.
A strange mixture of economics is involved in his
recommendation for reducing road appropriations in
order to provide funds for schools, pensions, unemploy
ment relief, destitution and other welfare activities.
If giving legitimate and justified employment on road
work is not a correct way to relieve whatever distress
occurs through unemployment, it would be interesting to
know jiist what would be a proper procedure. Handing
out monev from the treasury with no laboi letum cei
tainlv is not the proper course.
When the Governor states that we are near the dole,
he makes a statment which will not hold water—unless
the condition applies to the Territorial capital, news of
such condition not having trickled this far west.
The Governor could have stressed his suggestions
for economy in government without endeavoring to
frighten everybody into the heebe-jeebies, and especially
by painting a condition which does not exist.
One may agree with him on a program for reducing
salaries of the higher-priced school teachers and supei
intendents, and even might go farther and suggest that
the reduction in pay for Territorial offices share in the
cut It would hurt no one unless applied to the poorer
paid employees.
When the new Governor is named, whoever he might
be, it is hoped Alaska will receive something of the Roos
evelt type—a man capable of and with the courage to
lead onward, not downward.
