INCONSISTENCY
The above “bureaucratic lit
i ny” from The Gateway is ad
mirable in every respect. But it
is not so easily believed to be
the sincere belief of that publi
cation
We already have powers of
home rule conferred upon us
by Congress through the Organic
ho t, powers not yet fully used by
toe people of Alaska.
When the “Controller Bill”
v. as before the legislature, the !
Gateway opposed it.
The Gateway opposed the
election of a treasurer.
The Gateway opposed the
election of an auditor.
The Gateway opposed the
ed down at the polls by the vot
ers in the coming election.—
Coward Gateway.
It fought for and preferred
[appointment of these officers by
a federal governor responsible to
Washington. It preferred that
a bureaucratic machine contin
ue in power BUT financed by
Territorial funds.
Use what ‘home rule’ Congress
has given us and then demon
strate that we are fitted for fur
ther powers.
“BY THE GOVERNORS COM
MISSION AND THE COM
PANY’S PERMISSION

..“We must seek every oppor
tunity to retard the expansion
of Federal Bureaucracy and
place our communities in con
trol of their own destiny.”—
President Herbert Hoover.
With this admonition in mind
The ALASKAN will continue its
policy of opposition to control of
all Alaska affairs by bureaucrat
ic autonomies.

PAPER BOXES
“C. T. Gardner, who recently
returned from Seattle told the
Juneau Chamber of Commerce
:hat the canneries are now using
^bre or paper boxes, are threat
ening the prosperity of Alaska j
umber mills. * * * He expressed
he opinion that the paper box- i
s would not be used permanent
ly because of their frail con
struction.”—News item.
KIDDING HIMSELF
Each year sees an improve
ment in paper boxes. The time
7/ill soon be here when paper
:oxes will almost wholly ^ dis
place wooden boxes. This will
a serious blow to Alaskan
sawmills.
The solution is new markets.
THE SOLUTION
This cannot be done success
fully unless freight rates are
lowered. This will not be done
by the Seattle steamship lines
because they claim they are non
operating on a margin too close
for further reduction.
WHAT THEN
The answer is that shipments
east from Alaska must go thru
Prince Rupert, a saving o?. two
days in time and $10. in money
per thousand feet from Ketchi
kan. If Prince Rupert we e an
American port, that is the way
the freight would go. Why de
prive ourselves of this advan
tage in time and money, c e a
though we enrich these Cana 1 ■
ans for afterali, Canadians are
the best customers Americans
have.
