By Mildred Kirkpatrick
There has been considerable
discussion this week concern
ing the visitor from St. Louis,
Harry G. Wendler, who was
handed a pretty stiff fine for
speeding on the highway thru
Moose Pass.
It was thought by some that
since the man was an Outsider
and since we are doing all that
we can to stimulate and interest
tourists in visiting Alaska that
such treatment as that meted
out to Mr. Wendler was too
severe.
On the face of it, that seems
to be true, and I was inclined
to agree with the general opin
ion until hearing the patrolman’s
side of the case.
The man showed an arrogant
disregard for laws and regula
tions. He claimed to have spent
a large sum of money in Al
aska on this hunting trip, in
cluding the hiring of a guide.
Upon inquiry among the li
censed guides in Moose Pass
and Cooper Landing, no one
could be found who had acted
as guide to the party. In fact,
it is stated that the regular
guides in that vicinity had won
dered who was serving the party
because the men seemed to be
wandering around hunting goats
and moose on their own.
The man admitted seeing the
sign at Moose Pass stating the
speed limit to be 20 miles per
hour, but remarked to the
patrolman that he didn’t see
anything there worth hitting.
His speed was clocked at 60
MPH through the little com
munity.
Wendler comes from St. Louis,
Missouri. National magazines
and newspapers have been full
of conditions in Illinois from
Chicago to Cairo. Gambling
racketeers have control of the
state, with murder and arson
as their chief weapons. He
claimed to be the owner of a
“club” and bar. The men with
him were his associates in busi
ness. It may be, and his atti
tude toward our police officers
seems to indicate it, that he is
i more familiar with the lack of
law and order than their en
forcement. He tried lo evade
and refuse arraignment, and was
taken into custody as he was
about to board ship to leave the
Territory.
With highways, development,
increased population in Alaska,
we are bound to lose some of
the old freedoms and accept law
and order. Had a child been
struck by this man from the
gangster state, he would have
been just as dead as if struck
by a neighbor. We abide by the
law; our visitors must do like
wise. Territorial highway patrol
men and municipal police are
paid to protect our children,
our property and our lives. No
Outsider, be he from Illinois or
Timbuctoo, can come into our
country flagrantly and arrogant
ly violating our regulations and
get away with it.
Capital and labor should both
remember there is no profit
or wage scales under Soviet
rule.
