420 - MILLION
DOLLARS
Gov. William A. Egan has spent more than
’420-million dollars during his term in office.
This was your money. It amounts to about
’7,000 for every voter in Alaska.
Alaska was fortunate ta have received miNions in oil lease money. This
money could nol be foreseen when Governor Egan took office. He should
have planned an admiuistraliou which could make ends meet without using
oil lease income to pay bills. Oil lease income should have been used to
devalep our natural resourcss, or fo make capital improvements. Got Gov
ernor Egan needed this money to meet his day-to-day sxponsso.
While spending all our regular income, all our Statehood gifts, and all
of our unexpected oil lease income, the governor still couldn't make
ends meet. He ordered substantial tax increases on consumer items,
and on incomes. His own figures show that tax collections in Alaska
are up 34 per cent.
ALL OF THIS 420-MILUQH DOLLARS IS GORE. THERE IS KG ACTUAL SUR
PLUS IH ALASKA’S TREASURE. THE GOVERNOR'S RECEHT AHMURCEKHT
COHCERMHG AH UHORLIGATED BALANCE OF 24-MILUOH WAS A DELIBER
ATE ATTEMPT TO MISLEAD THE PEOPLE OF ALASKA. THAT 24 - MILLION
WAS OBLIGATED BY THE LAST SESSI0H OF THE LEGISLATURE TO MEET
THE DEMAHDS OF HIS HUGE 70-MILLI0H DOLLAR BUDGET FOR 1962-83.
What have Alaskans received for their 420-million dollars? Do we see
substantial improvements in our highways, public buildings, parks
and other facilities? No. Virtually every building program upon which
the state is embarked is far behind schedule. The failures are most
pronounced in our highway program. For four years, the state has
possessed the money to make great road improvements. But the state
has completed only a small fraction of the planned work.
ALASKAHS HAVE BOUGHT LITTLE MORE THAR INEFFICIENT STATE ADMIN
ISTRATION FOR THEIR 420-MILLION DOLLARS. THIS STATE ADMINISTRA
TION IS WASTING YOUR MONEY, AND DEPRIVING YOU AND YOUR FAIRLY
OF THINGS WE SHOULD ALL BE ENJOYING TODAY. WORSE, IT IS DES
TROYING OUR HOPES FOR THE FUTURE. BY SPENDING OIL LEASE INCOME
TO PAY DAILY EXPENSES, WE ARE MARCHING TOWARD A FUTURE FINAN
CIAL CRISIS, AND MORE TAX INCREASES.
