Kennedy Favors
Early Development
Alaska Resources
Sen. John F. Kennedy (D-Mass.)t
an aspirant to the Democratic nom
ination for the office of President
of the United States, delivered a
speech on the Senate floor June
24, on the subject of the develop
ment of the country’s natural re
sources. The senator made con
siderable reference to Alaska.
Senator Kennedy stated that in
his belief we need a whole new
concept of resource development.
“Today’s resource needs are close
ly related,” he stated, “the devel
opment of our water supplies af
fects the irrigation of our land and
even our stocks of fish. Forest de
velopment influences power devel
opment, and our power develop
ment can only be carried out with
a careful eye to the need for flood
protection.” All our resources
should be considered in the light
of their relationship to each other,
as well as to the economy as a
whole, he said.
Sen. Kennedy stated he supports
the idea of establishing a Council
of Resource and Conservation Ad
visers in the office of the Presi
dent, a council which will engage
in overall resource planning.
The senator continued: “We
must also move rapidly to ensure
the proper development of the
new American continent—the state
of Alaska ... a territory rich,
almost beyond belief, in the nat
ural resources on which American
greatness has been built.” Citing
Alaska’s virgin forests, minerals,
the power potential of its rivers,
he stated: “This unparalleled abun
dance is the natural storehouse of
America’s future resource needs.
And, thus, our growing strength
and our continued prosperity de
pends upon the proper develop
ment of Alaska.”
Kennedy criticized government
policy in Alaska, and stated that
in every aspect of Alaskan natural
resource development the story
has been the same—a story of neg
lect, and of indifference, and of
flagrant government discrimina
tion against Alaska and of a short
sighted inability to envision Alas
ka’s future greatness.
“We must meet the challenge of
Alaska—the challenge to reap its
abundance, build its strength, and
provide a reservoir of natural
wealth for a growing America,”
Kennedy stated. Kennedy then ad

vocated the development of the
Rampart Canyon Dam, and the ex
pansion and modernization of
Alaska’s highway system.
“One of the first tasks of the
President’s new Council of Re
source Advisers must be to develop
a complete blueprint for Alaskan
wealth, and the immensity of Alas
kan problems. Such a plan would
allow for a coordinated develop
ment of all of Alaska’s resources.
We could then press forward with
the forestry programs and the
power programs and the transport
ation programs, and all the rest in
an orderly and organized manner
that would make maximum effec
tive use of Alaska’s wealth—assur
ing its availability to future gener
ations of Americans.’’
