GOVERNOR GRTJETTING'S MESSAGE C0nt
In the Inst sens ion of the Leg
islature a bill for the aid of
veterans was introduced Into ft e
House and passed by a substantial
majority. This bi11 was not acted
upon by the Senate. Personally I
considered it a good bill.
The bill was designed to help bona-,
fide Alaska veterans by furnishing
to the discharged veteran $20 in o; •
cash for each month of active ser
vice , Considering the Inability of
the GsI,'s to negotiate In Alaska
the loans, which, under the G.I.
Act they are supposed to be able to
make, this seemed to me and still
seems to me a realistic approach to
giving the veteran a good start to.
get on his feet,
.'■•part from this, I feel, as I
have sta.ted on previous occasions,
that building up of "laska's
economy, in making "laska a place
where non and women can earn their
livelihoods and better livelihoods,
is the next general answer to ful
filling our responsibility.to’ ttie;
returning veteran, - -
And so in conclusion, I uf'go thb
Legion to take affirmative action
by resolution, to indicate its r
view to our territorial authorities
how best they can assist in speed
ing Alaska's development economi
cally, socially and politically.
The veterans of World War II have
done their tjob-mngnifIcently,
