Lone Lady Races
For State Office
A lone woman enters the politi
cal race in the Thirteenth District.
She is Hazel R. Owen, of Uganik
Bay.
Mrs. Owen is the wife of A1
Owen, two time senator and one
time Representative in the Terri
torial Legislature. Running as a
Democratic candidate for the
Alaska House of Representatives,
she states: “It is my convictaion
that an informed woman’s point of
view is valuable in giving the
Kodiak District proper representa
tion. It has been my privilege to
be present at the last two sessions
of the legislature with my hus
band. This has given me a know
ledge of Alaska problems which
will enable me to serve you well.”
Though the Owens’ have lived
m Alaska many years, and because
of work in which Mr. Owen was
engaged, lived in various cities in
Alaska, they have always consider
ed Kodiak their home. When not
in Juneau, they live at Uganik on
k'nriinlr TelanH
Mrs. Owen urges voters to cast
their ballot favoring all three pro
positions to be voted on, thus
assuring immediate statehood.
“Persons 19 years old can vote in
this election. Be sure and vote,”
she states.

Secretary of State
(Pd. Adv.)
The Statehood Act says:
“That, the administration and management of the fish and wildlife resources of
Alaska shall be retained by the federal government under existing laws until the
first day of the first calendar year following the expiration of 90 legislative days
after the Secretary of Interior certifies to the Congress that the Alaska State Legis
lature has made adequate provisions for the administration, management, and con
servation of said resources.”
The above does not mean that fish traps can’t be
closed in 1959 by the Alaska state legislature.
MILITARY OVERSEAS PAY TO CONTINUE
SERVICEMEN STATIONED IN THE NEW STATE ALASKA WILL CONTINUE TO
RECEIVE OVERSEAS PAY AND FEDERAL EMPLOYEES WILL CONTINUE TO
RECEIVE COST-OF LIVING ALLOWANCES, ACCORDING TO THE DEPART
MENT OF DEFENSE AND THE U. S. CIVIL SERVICE COMMISSION.
The Air Force Times, the official publication of the United States Air Force, re
ported these facts in the July 9, 1958 issue. The Air Force Times dispatch from
Washington, D, C. said:
“Servicemen and civil servants in Alaska are scheduled to continue drawing
overseas pay, station allowances and living cost differentials after the territory
becomes a state. Similarly, duty there is slated to continue under the foreign
tour category.
“These are opinions authoritative Pentagon officials expressed as the Senate
passed the statehood bill which assures the territory of state status.
“The Civil Service Commission said flatly that extra civilian pay would
continue.”
Be one of those who will be proud to tell their
children, relatives and friends “I voted for state
hood for Alaska.” Vote YES to all three.
