GOP Cooper Says
Lincoln Fundamentals
Needed Today
Nome Republicans celebrated
Abraham Lincoln’s birthday at a
dinner last night where the head
fo the Alaska Republican party,
George Cooper, told them that
“healthy doses of fundamental
truths must be brought forward
to cut the fog of uncertainty
which is the end product of the
last two years incumbent admin
istration’s so called accomplish
ment.
“Lincoln, if alive today, would
emphasize that sterile social theo
ries and economic judgments now
being tried by the Kennedy ad
ministration will surely fail as
they have in the past,” Cooper said.
He charged that President Ken
nedy continues along a very liber
alistic path, building power for his
party and himself, taking away, all
this time, personal freedoms so
highly valued by Republicans.
“Our duty as Republicans is to
keep reiterating the themes of
Lincoln tradition ‘that freedoms
whittled away by all powerful cen
tral government are very seldom
regained’,” he added.
Cooper spoke before about 80
persons gathered at the Pioneer
Igloo for the Lincoln Day Dinner
sponsored by the Nome Precinct
Republicans and a buffet dinner
organized by Mrs. Wm. Cameron.
He concluded by saying, “We
Republicans must stand up for our
ideology. There is a difference be
tween the two parties. That basic
difference is the survival of our
constitution, private enterprise, in
dividual rights and dignity and
America.”
Mr. Cooper returned to Fair
banks today from where he had
come especially to speak at the
dinner last night.
