GOODMAN’S
Juneau. This is more than
double that of Mr. Breuer, and
more than equal to the Alaska
experience of the other candi
dates for the position combined.
The high reputation as a cap
able schoolman which Superin
tendent Keller enjoys has been
justly earned. He reduced the
costs per pupil in both Juneau
and Fairbanks, and at the same
time expanded the work offered
to the students, thereby demon
strating that business methods
already being taken care of,
and which do not and should
not, come under the jurisdiction
of his office, and the balance
are of no importance to the
schools. TRULY A MARVELOUS
PLATFORM!
One wonders at the platform
until—but ah! Here it is, almost
at the bottom! “I was appoint
ed to this office on March 18
1929, and assumed the duties of
the office on July 1st. I have not
had sufficient time to do any
thing constructive.” That ex
plains over half of the planks in
his platform. HE DOESN’T
KNOW YET WHAT THE DUT
IES OF HIS OFFICE ARE.
Seriously, what can we Alas
kans expect from a man who, a
year after he has been appointed
to an office, admits he has done
nothing constructive. Nothing
but draw his pay and travel on
funds supplied by the Territory.
When can we expect him to go
to work and do something for
the salary he is drawing?
Everyone connected with the
schools know the present Com
missioner of Education, Mr.
Breuer, is sidestepping the dut
ies of his office. They have
been unable to obtain help from
his office, and when he does
condescend to give them infor
mation, it is e:ther wro^g and
is later retracted by his office
or it is so worded as to be mi?
leading or evasive. But h^w
serious is Mr. Breuer in his con
tention that he wisi :r to raise
the standards in '/•«, school??
We are in receipt o«' a letter ad
dressed to “Principals and
Teachers” sent out by Mr.
Breuer on March 12th. The first
paragraph reads as follows:
.."Territorial examination ques
tions in eighth grade subjects
will not be sent out from this
office for the final examina
tions this year.”
Section 18 paragraph “G”
session laws 1929, page 194
states:
“He shall prepare uniform
questions for use in the examin
ation of pupils in the Territory
completing., the . elementary
school course of study, * * * pro
vided however that accredited
schools may be exempt from
such examination by the Com
missioner of Education.”
Accredited elementary schools
are defined as those “whose work
is equal to or above a standard
set by the Commissioner of Edu
cation.”
How does Mr. Breuer expect to
obtain improvement in the
schools if he doesn’t find out
what they are doing? How much
improvement can the people of
Alaska expect in their schools
when their Commissioner of Ed
ucation frankly admits that all
schools meet the standard he
has set?
. .No, Mr. Breuer has been tried
and by his own word found
wanting. The people of Alaska
will answer his open statement
that he has done nothing and
intends to do nothing by sup
porting a real educator who
knows his business and is not
afraid of work. Superintendent
Keller will receive an over
whelming vote at both the pri
mary and general elections.
Worthy Candidates
-x
For years past, the friends of
Dan Sutherland and Judge I
Wickersham, in the Legislature,
have made a fight for the exer
cise of more of the home rule
that Congress delegated to the
Territory, but which has been
turned aside to Federal officials.
Four years ago, Senator Steel
led the fight for elective offices,
but lost through the change of
mind of one Senator. At the
last session, Senator Steel was
more successful and as a result,
four more Territorial offices will j
be filled this year through elec
tion, rather than by appoint- !
ment.
uaaq sreq aSuuqo ain mojsj I
made, it is generally accepted
as beneficial and the wonder is
why it was not made long ago.'
Two of the legislators largely re
sponsible for the culminating
success of the desired measure
are candidates again in the pre
sent Republican primary. They
have proven their worth and
worth and courage and there
should be no possible question
about their renomination—and
we don’t think that the opposi
tion will be very formidable. We
refer to Senator Will A. Steel
and Representative Grover C.
Winn, both of Juneau.
These men are certainly en
titled to renomination, and with
J. E. Johnson, William L. Paul
and Peter Sommer as their run
ning mates for the House, they
will form a Legislative ticket
that can well serve the real in
terests of the First Division and
the Territory at large.

vVHY THEY SUPPORT JUDGE
JAMES WICKERSHAM
From every section of the Ter
ritory come assurances of sup
port for the candidacy of Judge
James Wickersham, who seeks
the Republican nomination for
Delegate to Congress.
People know him as a man of
exceptional ability and as a man!
who has done big things for the 1
Territory. An instance of the
many expressions of favor is
the following, taken from a let
ter written by one of the force
ful and active women of An
chorage.
“With best wishes for your il
lustrious success, not only in be
half of the interests of Alaska,
tut as some degree of recogni
tion of your past helpful and
constructive work toward the
development of the Territory.”
