SEWARD MUST BE REPRE
SENTED at the next Legislature!
It is not fitting that a city of this
size and importance in the Ter
ritory should allow itself to be
represented by any other area of
Third Division and by persons
who are not familiar with our
peculiar needs and conditions.
Seward and the rest of the
Third Division were represented
last year by delegates living in
the Anchorage area. No one
from Kenai Peninsula, no one
from Kodiak, no one from Cor
dova. Whose fault was it?
The first grass-roots discus
sion of policy and the choice of
representation comes with the
caucus which is a meeting of the
voters of each party in every

f
community, iwery man has the
opportunity to state his views
and make his choice of a candi
date in the community.
With filing dates in January
and primary elections in April,
there is not too much time in
which to talk Seward and Kenai
Peninsula residents into the idea
of serving the community in the
Legislature.
Regardless of party affilia
'tions, we must have representa
tion this time, even if we vote
for two in the primary to get
one elected. The Democrat cau
cus is next week. Republicans
will doubtless call one in a short
time. Now is the time to be
thinking of the future and select
men and women from our own
area to present our own prob
lems and to stop depending upon
larger communities to take care
of legislation for us.
Attend the caucus held by
your party, in full partisan spirit
if you like, but with the good of
Seward and the Peninsula also
in mind!
