TO TH:Y VOTERS 0? Trih MATAKboKA VALLEY:
Your vote is respectfully solicited. Thirty-seven years devoted to agric
ulture in Alaska, has given me the feeling that I can be of service to you In the
Legislature. Alaska is or. the threshold of ai) era. of development In fisheries,
mi.lag, and farming. An ever Increasing population will continue and call for
larr jo production and greater development In all Industrie^.' Vital legislation vhl
co before the Legislature that will have farr-r caching effects upon resib nts o,
Al ka. Straehood, crunsporation, educational Institutions, and new industrial
dev.lopmont will require rare legislation. Voters have a larger field of candid res
to select from than ever before. Party lines should not govern your voting. Se1 ’ ut
these candidates you feel best able to serve ycur Interests at Juneau.
There arc about icur hundrad voter? m the fcotanusxa vr.J. ley. iivse votes
con easily decide the election of any member on September 12th- Elect your candi
dates and with a solid vote, you can expect something from them when important
matters effecting your interest come before them at Juneau- They can get 'action by
m aevi'1 to Congress regarding conditions 'relative to Mr.tanuska Valley control by
the Alaska Rural Rehabilitation Corporation. Four hundred votes will always get
u' more consideration than vve can hope for by the fev; votes registered at the
F •inr.~'y. It is your privilege.and duty to vote. It Is the American Way—f. Hare
to vote robs s people of their inalienable rights and soon places them in the h nds
of dictators, both small and large. The will to govern .urselves lies in our right
to veto. If we vote Throng sometimes, we still have the'rlght to change cur y-.,te at
the next election. A high percentage .of vptes Indicates an energetic citizenship*
It was my privilege to serve one short term in the Senate in 1923 when
the graduated tax on salmon and net profit tax on gold ehd copper mines were
enacted by a vote of five to throe in the Senate and nine to seven in the H'use.
The-'o two lav's placed the Territory on a'sound financial basis. I introduced the
agrl. fiturnl Fair Bill and the amendment'to the Bovipe T.B. law which provided
Terr', -rial and Federal fund reimbursement to owners of T.B. cattle. A similar
amen', meat to the Bangs law should be made.
I served two years on the Territorial .Board of Education and eight years
on the Beard of Trustees ef the Agricultural College and School of Mines*
I believe that I can intelligently serve you in the Legislature if you
elect me on September 12th.
Sincerely,
M.'Di SNODGRASS
