About Alaskans
Attorney General James S. Truitt
in his report for 1934 shows that of
six major cases and several smaller
ones in which the Territory was in
volved none had been lost and only
one remained unsettled. The case
of the Wien Airways vs. the Terri
tory and Federal officers is now pend
ing on demurrer. The expenses of
the office during the biennium was
$14,349.
Lack of a naval base in Alaska
makes the Territory vulnerable to
an attack by an enemy, Capt. N. H.
Goss, Chief of StafT, said. "Modern
wars come quickly,” the Captain
said, “and a nation must look to the
navy to guard against surprise at
tacks, but without a base in Alaska,
or the Aleutian islands, we could
not maintain a seaplane portal and
watch for surprise attacks. This
base is our most acute need."
Major E. Telford, in command of
the R. C. M. P. at Dawson, died re

to Canada as a young man and first
tried his hand at farming, but gave
it up and joined the Northwest
Mounted Police. He was stationed
in Regina and Calgary, and in 1894
was sent to Dawson with the first
Yukon contingent. He left the force
for a short time to enter the mining
game ,was re-enlisted in 1900 and
from then until 1926 was in the Yu
kon district, the last few years as
ranking officer commanding the Yu
kon constabulary.
Seventy-two children were absent

A man named Nelson was found

Territory several years, nothing was

John Brandon, who died recently
in Fairbanks, at one time was in
line for the world's fistic champion

made.

TO THE PUBLIC:
The Industrial Workers of Alaska
is an organization formed by wage
earners for self protection thru cir
cumstances of necessity.
To safeguard our rights and pro
tect our interests we find it neces
sary to follow in the footsteps of
our employers who are always to
gether whenever its interests are
concerned. So as wage earners who
recognize our interests and realizing
that nothing shall be handed us on
a silver platter, we are taking a leaf
out of the book of past experience
and are banding ourselves together
under the name of the Industrial
Workers of Alaska, recognizing no
barrier of sex, race, creed or color.
With a grim determination that we
are doing no wrong we are using
every avenue of approach to attain
our objective.
Our purpose ? To establish and
maintain the eight hour day or less
whenever economic necessity de
mands it, a return commensurate
with the cost of living, working
conditions conducive to health and
a standard of living that will insure
for our children a better heritage
than that possessed by us.
To attain these ends we do not
limit ourselves to any one course of
action. Any and all means of ap
proach shall be used whenever ex
pedient.
To stifle any personal ambition for
self-aggrandizement no labor bur
eaucracy is to be tolerated. Any
and all moves for action originate,
from the rank and file. No salaried
officers or self appointed leaders.
Leadership will only be tolerated by
consent of the rank and file and will
move in a constructive direction
building for a better today, a more
secure tomorrow and to an ultimate
society where parasites will be un
known.
If you are a wage earner you
should not neglect to enlist with
your fellow workers as your chance
to rise out of tho ranks of workers
is mfghty small, for its ranks are
growing larger day by day.
■ To the memory of countless spirits
who have given their all for the
common cause you are urged to
stand up and be counted. Events
i are moving fast and the immediate
future demands that you be prepar
I ed.
