The most vital problem fac
ing Alaskans today is that of
becoming self-supporting, as a
territory or as a state.
In time of war or other dis
aster we could survive but a
few weeks in our present con
dition. We would become a lia
bility rather than an aid be
cause of our helplessness to
support ourselves. Alaska must
develop farms, and bring into
cultivation and production
more than 360,000 acres to feed
the Railbelt alone.
This program should begin
now, and be rushed to comple
tion while the defense workers
and equipment are available.
If necessary, make it a public
work program or reclamation
project.
Changes in Land Laws are
Needed to facilitate such a pro
ject and should receive Con
gressional action this coming
session. A Land Clearing Pro
gram will set in motion a great
er force of men than our great
est gold stampede.
Twenty years will do the job.
Grazing herds will supply our
beef raid mutton requirements.
Dairy farms will soon supply
all Alaska. Vegetable farms

freezing plants are close at
hand. Packing plants can be
had for beef, pork, mutton,
poultry, e g g s, butter and
cheese. Grain farms in the Tan
ana and Yukon Valleys will
supply much of our concentrate
feed’ requirements. Our native
grasses and forage will be util
ized. Wool and leather to clothe
us, our moose, caribou hides
and fur will help complete our
wardrobes. Alaska’s wild fruite
and all natural food products
will find markets in the states.
In the 50 years of my life
spent in Alaska in connection
with the Agricultural Experi
ment Stations and farming on
my own, I have seen very great
changes in our mode of living
from the very primitive diet of
the native fishing village to
that of the modern home of the
U.S.A., transportation from
water and trails to highways
and airways, from the log
school to the frame, to the
modern concrete grade and
high schools, and the Univer
sity from a barn-like structure
to the modern university, from
tent towns to modern cities,
and to Statehood. Let us fulfill
our destiny.
To those whom you choose to
serve you, may we remember
that we are one people, not di
vided by party factions.. We
choose to serve.
Thank you
