DELEGATE DIMOND POINTS
TO PROGRESS OF ALASKA AS
BEST ARGUMENT FOR PARTY
(Continued From Page One)
cured by Delegate Dimond dur
ing his past three years tenure
erf office under the new and en
^dlitened viewpoint in which Al
*ska is being considered today by
the national government.
For Control of Fish
In respect to the fisheries of
Alaska the Delegate explained at
some length on his stand regard
ing territorial control of this im
portant industry, the industry
'which pays the greatest majority
cf the territorial revenue. He
stated:
“I am still as strongly in favor of
sell control of Alaska fisheries as
ever and I intend to work to the
best of my ability to secure such
passage in congress. I am also
definitely in favor of the elimin
ation of fish traps in Alaska whi
ch I believe are seriously detri
mental to the best interests of
the people of Alaska."
The subject is one which is not
as well understood by residents
of the Second Division as those
of the First and Third, where the
greater per cent of the popula
tion is engaged in that enormous
industry.
Social Security Act
The subject which Delegate Di
mond regarded as the most im
portant item which will probably
come before the next Territorial
Legislature is the means of plac
ing Alaska within the National
Security Aot, whereby the bene
fits of that act may be applied to
the residents of the Territory.
He urged on any of those who

will be elected this fall to the
legislature that their first duty
should be to enact territorial leg
islation bringing the territory
within that act. He placed it be
fore the people not as a policy
of one political party, but pointed
to the fact that it is too large, too
expansive to be merely classed
political; it is for the benefit of
all, and probably constitutes the
most progressive piece of legis
lation ever enacted in the history
of the United States.
Which Do You Want?
Drawing the attention of those
1 assembled to the fact that there
will be a general election Septem
ber 8th, the Delegate placed the
record of Democratic administra
tion and progress in Alaska be
fore the voters, putting up to
them whether they wished to
return a party to office which
had promised, and actually car
ried into effect, a policy of bring
ing government back to the peo
ple where it could serve them
during this great crisis and de
pression, or whether they would
place in office opposing forces
| which have only demonstrated
I that their vast fortunes and pow
er have been built up on the ef
forts and sacrifice of others—
which had completely forgotten
i the common man and were using
legislation for the benefit of
themselves, at the expense of
those who were the unfortunates
of a critical period in the econo
mic and social history of the
world.
