Of Interest To Voters
Brtng . candidate for the Territorial Senate. Short Term, I submit for jour consideration the follow
Ing statement, which I hope will conrlnce JOB that I served my term In the legislature, honestly, intelligent
ly and constantly In the Interests of the people of this division and that I am again deserving of your sup
port and confidence.
1 am thirty years of age, twenty one years a resident of Nome, my record as a eitiaen and a public sei
rant is dean, mj life is ahead of me and my ambition is to make good with yon again.
My earnest desire is that the people of Alaska will support candidates who CAN, sad who Will, faitl
fall; represent the public la the solution of the following questions, to which I pledge myself.
Pair representation of the Transportation Problem.
(Transportation is the burning question and most be represented fearlessly if we pre to get relic
The people pay the transportation hill and not the shipper who Is privileged to do business, so It follows th
the people can be best represented by men independent of any im or body of men who might bane favors
ask. or are allied in any way with any ooncerp that Is subservient to the Big Transportation Companies
Alaska. It is n question on which we must stand pat at all times.)
A solution of the Communication Problem:—(Communication facilities are inadequate and I believe t
Federal Government or the Territory should establish a Radio Phone System throughout the division. T
cost at Radio Phones, installation, and operation is not great. Radio Phone* are practical and within o
Repeal of the Present Rond Law and the passage of a measure providing for the expenditure of Ter
torial Road Fund* by elected Divisional Commissioners.
(I supported the repeal of the present law at the last session of the Legislature and actively support
the provision in the Appropriation Rill that increased the Shelter Cabin appropriation from $5000 to $10,004
Abolishment of the present appointive system of our Territorial Officials. ^
(I hold it our right to elect all Territorial Officials, from the Governor down and, our right of the Init
five. Referendum, and Recall to apply to all public servants.)
1 will support the repeal of the present Fur Tax law.
(The tax problem is of serious concern to all and a thorough knowledge of the numerous indasti
throughout the Territory to needed, in order that the question can be dealt with intelligently. The vlr
of Just taxation lies in taxing the industries or Individ uato that can best stand it, so that the smaller indust)
are not burdened while the larger and more profitable ones assume their just share. I believe in the prose
tion of the Act of the last Legislature that provided for a percentage of the revenue derived from the Fur $
Industry to be turned over to the Territory.)
I vill actively support:—An Bight Hour Low; A Medical Liability Act; A Strict and Safer Bank
Code; Better-Mall Service and any other legislation that alU add to the growth and prosperity of Alaska
this division ia particular.
Revision of the Probate Code:—(Alaska’s Probate Laps would not be tolerated in nay State in
Union and I .believe it Iha dfij of the “next Legislature to enact au adequate andmndwsfi Probate Code.)
The repeal of the present Compensation Act. I win earnestly pork for the mudpwf of a O
pensatl&u Act.
•Revision of the Primary Laws only as It pertains to date. <I do not believe the Primary Law shy
be snuindril in any way that would «efi Old Party Convqptfsn Control^
I firmly .believe the Legislature ahoold take a keen Interest in the Pioneer Hame at Sitka and ma»
an institution worthy of every Alaskans praise. I further believe the Territory should inaugurate a'a
Liberal Old Age Pension Act.
In conclusion wish to state: While a member of the Legislature; I introduced and passed:—
Act to allow electors of the Territory of Alaska to Indl cate their preference for the person who shall be
pointed Governor of the Territory.” “An Act to extend the period covered by the appropriation for the suf
of schools.” “Government fish survey of Bering Sea.” “Establishment of Mine Experiment Station, this
skm.” “A Medical liability Act,” (which was vetoed liy Ex-Governor Riggs,) and at all times support*
progressive legislation that edme before the House.
H honored to act In the capacity of Territorial Senator, Short Tens, I assure the electors of the fit
Division—that I am at your direction, tall me what yon want, put me in ja position to do what yon want i
will make every effort to do it.
Respectfully Submitted,
CHAS. W. BROWN JR.
