Mildred R. Hermann j
Senate Bill No. 4, the Green
Coffey Bill to abolish the Alaska
Development Board, first of the
series of so-ealled “spite mea
sures” to face the test in both
Houses, went down to defeat in
a House finale that has aroused
more public interest than any
measure up in recent years. It’s
requiem was written on a tie
vote that also wrote its own tri
bute to the twelve men and wo
men who withstood the pressure
of some of the plainest and fanci
est lobbying ever seen in the
Territorial capital.
This record can give little sat
isfaction to the Republicans in
the Territory, who saw in last
fall’s election, a chance for the
Republican party to justify its
claim for leadership preparatory
to its crucial test in 1948, for

against the Development Board
were Republicans. Only four of
the thirteen Republican House
members voted to retain the
board.

kcvich dismissed all the endorse
ments by saying with impressive
eloquence t.ha' "no a single
‘ common man” had asked for
the ieter>tion of the board-appar
ently the labor union-, veterans
organizations, Chambers of Com
merce, etc., m the contemplation
of Mr. Vukovich, contain only
plutocrats and maefaetors of
great wwa th”-Ce; iainly he den

declared the Juneau Chamber of
Commerce was made up of terri

Fairbanks repesented a minority

In spite of the request of
Steve MoCutcheon, the dozen of
telegrams, resolutions and other
communications ieceived in sup
