Letter to the Editor
It is my opinion that the newly
proposed city charter must be de
feated by the residents of Kodiak
at the coming election.
This instrument represents a
great deal of effort on the part of
the committee, but unfortunately
in the wrong direction. It should
never be advocated that freedoms
as stipulated in our federal con
stitution be taken away or compro
mised by any lower echelon of gov
ernment.
The fact that other cities may
have adopted such a charter does
not make it right either for them
or Kodiak.
For anyone to assume such a
grave responsibility as to suggest
the adoption of this charter is be
yond my comprehension.
To own property is by no means
a guide to character, ability, or
intent. By the same token neither
does lack of ownership make such
guarantees. This is an individual
determination that must be de
cided by the voting public.
This is only another reason, and
3 very clear one, why every resi
dent must take an interest in his
government and come out and vote
Study your candidates. Ask him
questions, and get acquainted with
them. This will help, but never,
never consent to discrimination,
limitations, nor any other infringe
ment on the intended freedom of
our American way of life.
Whether or not I as an individual
am elected mayor of Kodiak is not
the question, But your freedom to
participate in your government is
important. Let us not foolishly
throw this away.
, Wally Nelson
