CANDIDATE GRIGSBY
SETS FORTH VIEWS
MESSAGE TO VOTERS
The message of George B. Grigs
by, candidate for Delegate to Con
gress, subject to the primary elec
tion, April 26, is set forth clearly
in the following statement:
“As a candidate for the Demo
cratic nomination for Delegate to
Congress at the coming primary
election, I herewith make a brief
statement of the principles for
which I stand.
“I am i nfavor of the direct pri
mary law and absolutely opposed
to its repeal.
“I consider the future adminis
tration of the fisheries of lAaska
as the big issue of this campaign.
Am utterly opposed to the present
bureaucratic control
“I am in favor of the abolition of
fish traps, and as the most effect
ive means to this end. will, if elect
ed, work for the transfer of all fed
eral control of the fisheries to the
Alaska Territorial Legislature. I
believe this can be accomplished
with the advent of the Democratic
administration, which is assured.
“I will do my utmost to put the
Bureau of Fisheries out of busi
ness in the Territory of Alaska, ex
cept for the purposes of scientific
research.
“I am opposed to all forms of
bureaucratic government. No fed
eral bureau should have any power
to legislate whatsoever.
“It. will be my endeavor, if elect
ed. to open the public domain of
Alaska to settlement and develop
ment under the same liberal laws
under which other Territories were
developed. This includes timber
lands, oil and coal lands. I am op
posed to the leasing system.
“I am opposed to the Pinchot
system of conservation as applied
to Alaska, believing that nature
and economic conditions present
sufficient, barriers to the develop
ment of the Territory, without ad
ditional man-made restrictions.
“The Alaska Legislature should
have complete control of the game
and fur-bearing animals.
“The Democratic doctrine of
states rights, advocated for dhe
past one hundred years, is particu
larly applicable to this Territory.
We should be accorded home rule
in the Territory on all subjects of
legislation not purely federal.
“I have rot recently adopted the
above platform but have cam
oaigned on the same platform for
three successive campaigns, each
time gaining more votes, and in
the last election was beaten by my
Republican opponent by only 296
votes. I believe those w'ho vote in
the Democratic primary all desire
to nominate a candidate who has
the best chance of success at the
election this coming November. I
will not in this message, or else
where, reflect on the merits of the
opposing candidates for the Demo
cratic nomination. However, the
friends who have urged me to
again become a candidate, and I
myself, believe, that my past re
cord in office, as United States at
torney, as Attorney-General, and
Delegate to Congress; the wide ac
quaintance obtained by my suc
cessive campaigns, the increasing
number of votes gained in each of
them, all indicate that I am the
logical candidate and deserving of
the nomination in the April pri
mary. GEORGE GRIGSBY.

FOSTER, CANDIDATE
ATTORNEY GENERAL.
OPPOSEDFEDERAIS
BELIEVES CONSERVATION IN
TERRITORY BEEN GREATLY
OVERWORKED
The following is a copy of Frank
I H. Foster’s platform. He is a
i candidate for the office of Attor
ney General of Alaska:
Juneau, Alaska,
March 26, 1932.
“I am a candidate for the office
of Attorney General of the Terri
tory of Alaska, subject to the will
of the voters as expressed at the
Primary Election, April 26, 1932,
and as such, respectfully solicit
your support.
j “I have been a resident of the
j Territory of Alaska for 21 years,
| am married and have five children,
all raised in Alaska. Whatever I
have of the world’s gear, which
isn’t much, is invested in this Ter
ritory. I have been a practicing
attorney for 26 years, have held
I the office of United States District
Attorney and during three sessions
| have been a member of the Terri
torial Legislature. I expect to re
main here for the rest of my days,
and to do my utmost in the future
as I have in the past, for the up
building of the Territory.
“I am utterly opposed to Federal
or any interference in Territorial
affairs. I believe that the conser
vation principle has been over
worked in Alaska to the extent that
most of our Territorial resources
have become the playthings of
Federal bureaucrats. I believe that
there will be no lasting prosperity
for the Territory until the chains
binding us to the Federal bureaus
are severed. I am utterly opposed
to the brand of conservation which
was foisted upon us by Gifford Pin
chot and others of his ilk.
“I favor the encouragement of
Alaska labor, the employment of
Alaskans and citizens of the Unit
ed States in all public and private
works. I believe that all Alaska
appointees should be chosen from
bona fide resident Alaskans.
“I believe in the equality of priv
ilege and opportunity for all Al
| askans whether white or native.
“It is my opinion that the game,
i fish and fur-bearers of this Terri
i tory are the heritage of the people
i resident herein and should be so
j administered as to give resident Al
askans first opportunity to put
same to beneficial use- I am op
posed to game laws or regulations
which deny to our people the right
i to take a reasonable toll of such
j resources.
“I do not believe in the leasing
; system as applied to coal, oil or
fur farming lands. It is my opin
ion that the Homestead laws should
not be hampered by the red tape
of forestry regulations. I know that
if Alaska were placed under the
same conditions as existed at the
i time of the opening up of the
| Great West, we, too, would develop
! and prosper in the same manner
as the States have.
“If chosen Attorney General, I
pledge myself to administer that
office fairly and impartially, giving
to all the same degree of justice
and honest dealing without dis
crimination as to race or condition.
“If these principles appeal to
you, please place a cross before my
name at the Primary Election.
“Yours very truly,
“FRANK H. FOSTER.”
