WRITES PRESIDENT HOOVER
RELATIVE TO NEEDS OF AL
ASKA; SUGGESTS REMEDY
Three objects to be attained in
order promote the development of
Alaska are suggested by ex-gover
nor William Sulzer of New York,
and one of the Territory’s foremost
pioneers, in a letter to President
Hoover, a copy of which was receiv
ed in the last mail by Leon Urbach,
j president of the Seward Chamber
of Commerce,
, The letter follows:
' Hon. Herbert Hoover,
White House, Washington, D. C.~i
; My Dear Mr. President:
Just a few lines to say that one
;: of the things that will redound to :
the credit of your administration is
: j to do something worth while for
Alaska.
For years Alaska has been gov
jerned like a conquered province. I
Everything has been done by re
strictive legislation, to hamper its
! growth, and retard its prosperity.
Most of the people who went there
years ago have been driven from
jits domain, and everything con- .
jceivable has been done to keep peo
; pie from going there to settle and
develop its resources.
A little investigation on your part
will demonstrate what I say. and a
great deal more than I say, in this j
brief communication.
I What Alaska needs, very briefly, ;
are these things, viz:
1— Home Rule. Territorial Gov
ernment. Give Alaskans the right j
to govern themselves. For every 10
inhabitants there now there is one
alien tax eater, and most of them i
do more harm than good. '
2— Make the mining law's of Al- j
aska the same as they used to be, )
and as they are thruout the rest of j
the United States. The fool red
tape restrictions placed on mining
in Alaska has crippled mining
t there, and worked irreparable in
; jury to the people of our country.
3— Open up Alaska to homestead- j
ers. Give every citizen a patent for !
160 acres of the public land, where
ever he wants to take it up. provid- I
ed he will pay to have it surveyed,
and pay $5 an acre for it. This
money should go to Alaska for
\ roads, trails and airplane landing
fields. The people of the United*
States paid less than two cents an
acre for these lands. Why not sell
them to the people who will culti
vate them?
If you will send a message to
Congress to do these things with
out delay, more than 100,000 citi
jzens out of employment will go to
jAlaska, and settle there, and make
j Alaska* what it should be—pros- j!
jperous and progressive,
j With all good wishes, believe me, I
jvery sincerely your friend, Wm. j
iSulzer.
