Death Comes To
Edward Vickery
Edward Everett Vickery, father
of Roland Vickery of this city, died
Sunday night. He was 82 years old.
The elder Vickery came to Ko
diak a little over a year ago. He
formerly lived in Key Largo, Flori
da. In the course of his lifetime, he
was a businessman and later he was
in law enforcement work. He has
been retired since 1954. He has
been very ill the past few years,
suffering a heart attack this year,
from which he never completely
recovered.
The deceased was born in Mol
tonburough, New Hampshire, April
22, 1879. He is survived by a sister,
Luella, and a son, Roland.
Funeral services were conducted
Wednesday by Rev. John J. Marks
at St. Mary’s Catholic Church. Pall
bearers were Ole Johnson, Douglas
Preston, Lawrence Anderson, Tony
Reed, Herb Bell and Tom Sherman.
He was interred in the Catholic
cemetery.
Sen. Gruening
(continued from page 1)
he said. He said your representa
tives in Washington have to concen
trate on the development of Alas
ka. Development, he said, is not a
narrow, parochial, local problem.
Its development is essential to the
development of the Union.
Several advantages and gains
were cited by the speaker as com
ing from statehood. He mentioned
royalties from oil development,
which he said would never have
happened if we were not a state;
the state legislature, which he said
was responsible to the people as
no other legislature could be; prior
to statehood there were no repre
sentatives from Kodiak—legisla
tors were all from the big cities,
he said; control of iis resources
was given as a gain.
He cited the ferry system linking
Kodiak with the rest of Alaska as
due to statehood. He paid tribute
to Rep. Pete Deveau for fighting
for it.
“We in Washington have to face
the overall problem of catching up
(with other and older states) with
the things we did not get. Legisla
tors from this state, he said, face
lots of opposition from the other
48 states and from government
agencies.
The senator warned against en
couraging people to come to
Alaska. Alaska, he said, spells ad
venture to Americans.
A question and answer period fol
lowed in which he was asked the
question by Oscar Dyson if some
thing couldn’t be done about ex
tending the fishing line from 3
miles to 12, 25, or 50 miles. Sen.
Gruening outlined the difficulties
of the State Department, which, he
said, has its’ problems in forming
agreements with other nations.
“We can keep on trying,” he stated.
Other questions asked were re
garding the Rampart Dam, lands,
and management of game in the
Katmai National Monument by the
ADF & G.
