I A NORTHERN NOTEBOOK
j By BOB DE ARMCND
Thirty-first of a Series
Dr. Ernest Henry Gruening, Gov
ernor of Alaska, held off for 59
days of the 20th session of the Leg
islature, but near the end of the
60t.h and last day he was hack to
his old tricks and was down in the
halls and chambers, button-holing
members, whispering, admonishing
and cajoling.
It was not apparent that he ac
complished anything very much by
it. One of his particular interests
seemed to have been in getting ac
tion on a bill creating a Territorial
Department of Lands. The bill had
passed the Senate, only to be ta
bled in the House. And when
Speaker Bill Egan banged the gavel
for the last time, the bill was still
on the table.
Earlier in the evening the Dem
ocratic floor leaders had moved to
reactivate the bill. Indeed, a mo
tion was made to lift it from the
table and the motion was left
dangling when the Democrats went
into an hour and five minute cau
cus to decide on their candidates
for the Board of Administration—
or, if the story came out of that
caucus straight, to keep Glen
Franklin from a place on the Board
because he had voted too frequent
ly with the Republicans.
Whatever may have happened in
the caucus, Franklin did get a place
on the Board—for whatever that
place may be worth. And when the
election of the Board members was
finished and the Democrats were
ready for another try at breathing
life into a Land Department,
George Miscovich requested a joint
session for confirmation of some
appointments.
In fact, he not only requested it,
he demanded it in a loud voice,
and in the ensuing hullabaloo the
Land Department got lost com
pletely. The bill, along with 38
others, remained on the table, to
be shoveled out by the janitors
the next afternoon.
It was and is generally assumed
that Governor Gruening was in
terested in the bill as a means of
providing a job for some political
favorite. And it is further assumed
that this favorite was not George
Miscovich.
The mention of Governor' Gruen
ing and George Miscovich in tlje
same paragraph—something that is
not likely to occur here with any
great- frequency—brffffs to mind
another matter and prompts me to
wonder whether George ever coir
lected his five-dollar wager from
the Governor.
The wager concerned Territorial
finances and the condition of the
budget for the 1949-1950 biennium.
Its terms are perhaps best recorded
as the Governor himself stated
them before a committee of the
United States Senate on April 1,
1949:
“Governor Gruening—The bud
get, of approximately $18,000,000, is
to be balanced, on estimates from
the Tax Commissioner. We think
it will be just about balanced.
"Senator Ecton—That is your
honest conviction?
"Governor Gruening—That is my
honest conviction, and 1 do not
think it is very far off. X have a
five-dollar bet with George Mis
covich either way. He says we are
going to be out a million dollars,
and I say we are going to be in a
million dollars. Time will te I. I
do not think we arc very far out
of line.”
Well, time and^the chairmen of
the Ways and Means and Finance
Committees of the Legislature have
told the story and the story is that
the budget deficit f„r the biennium
amounts to around two million
dollars. It should no. require a
Congressional Investigation at this
stage to determine who owes who
the five-spot.
But whether or no., George Mis
covich collected on hi; wager, he
won something inflnitt-'.y more val
uable during the 60 clay s of the 20th
session—a lot of stature as a crafty
and courageous legislature quarter
back.
The transformation here in two
short years was truly astounding.
When George came to the Legisla
ture as a green hand in 1949 he was
a pretty silent fellow. It is doubt
ful, as a matter of fact, that ex
cept for his vote he spoke more
than a couple of dozen words on
the floor during that entire ses
sion. His vote was most generally
“No."
George voted “No" so consistently
during the 19th session that the re
sults were sometimes jocularly but
truthfully announced as "Twenty
three to Miscovich.”
In that session, of course, George
had only a small handful of the
members on his side, and he didn’t
always have even those. In the 20th
session, just finished, it was dif
ferent. There he could sparkplug
a team that pretty consistently
played together, constituted a size
able minority of the total House
membership, and occasionally be
came a majority.
This change, coupled with the ex
perience he had gained in the p?e
ious session and with his native
ability, placed George In a positior
to carry the ball, and he made the
most of It.
This is not to say that he handled
the ball all alone. He had a great
deal of assistance from a little ladj
from the First Division, Mrs. Doris
Barnes, who made some of the
shortest and quietest but most tell
ing speeches of the session; from
Glen D. Franklin and Mike “The
Voice” Stepovich; from quiet, un
assuming Frank Johnson, an able
parliamentarian whose eagle eye
caught many a point overlooked by
the lawyers in the House; and from
Waino Hendrickson, Sim MacKin
non and others.
But somehow, because of previous
experience or education advantages
or both, more was expected of these
people than was expected of George. |
He had, in some quarters, been i
written off as a man who would do |
his voting, but little more. But in
this session he grabbed for the
bootstraps and hoisted liimself up.
Without the long legislative exper
ience or the glib tongue of Demo
cratic floor-leader McCutcheon,
George Miscovlch proved that he
can hold his own in the rugged in
fighting that wins the final battles
on the floor. And he showed beyond
a doubt that he is a man to be
reckoned with in future sessions of
the Alaska Legislature.
THESE DAYS
By GEORGE E. SOKOLSKV
Lawlessness and the Law
The Kefauver investigation is
important and should be continued
so that the character of dual gov
ernment can be exposed. But the
question must arise as to what can
be done about this sordid business.
The public is no more against
a bet than it was against a drink
during prohibition and while we
might establish laws against betting
or to make betting more difficult,
we must watch out that we do not
move into another prohibition sit
uation during which the marriage
between lawlessness and govern
ment was consummated.
Certain problems need to be con
sidered not only from the stand
point of our disgust with the mean
faced gangsters whom we saw on
television, but also from the broad
er position of maintaining our free
institutions and constitutional gov
ernment.
For instance, X do not think that
the Telephone Company should be
a law enforcement agency any
more than a Woolworth store
should be a law' enforcement agen
cy. If Erickson or Costello or any
of their kind apply for telephones,
the Telephone Company should
never haye the right to reject their
application on grounds of moral
turpitude. That is a function of
the law, not of a private business.
Whatever crimes these men com
mit are their crimes, and for them
they should be prosecuted in courts
of law, in an open trial, in accord
ance with the constitution. The
men are guilty, not the mechanical
devices they Use.
It will in no manner lessen gamb
ling nor the power of gamblers to
restrict their use of the telephone
or the mails. They will find means
to convey their data, just as the
Communists in this country got
| their instructions by reading cer

tain dispatches in newspapers, the
senders and recipients of which
were innocent. The astute criminal
and conspiratorial mind can devise
means for meeting difficult situa
tions.
This problem Is one of law en
forcement. In Federal cases, that
is, in those involving activities in
interstate commerce, the depart
ment of justice is responsible for
law enforcement. I am not as wor
ried about gambling as about dope
peddling or the importation of
heroin, marijuana and similar
drugs that weaken our. population.
The gangsters that engage in such
businesses should be prosecuted.
The fact that they may use tele
phones or the mails in their busi
ness should not be considered any
more than they use chairs and
tables. What we need to do is to
puntsh these men and to punish
them with the full force of the
law. *
On the local level, it Is the people
who are really at fault. As long as
only 50 percent of the Americans
entitled to elect officials vote on
election day, the voice of the peo
ple is not making itself heard in
this country. When local law en
forcement officers and even jud
ges are known by their neighbors
to be unfit men and yet are elected
year after year, respect for the
law will not be very high.
We face, therefore, a problem in
fundamentals. The real criminals
are the local officials. The real
culprits are the people who vote
for crooks, knowing them to be
crooks, or who do not vote at all
and thereby sell their own govern
ments to the combination of gang
sters and public officials.
Until the people of this country
recognize their own responsibility,
no new legislation will have any
value. Actually, there are plenty of
good laws on the statute books
which are not enforced. When Ab
ner (Longie) Zwillman risked ci
tation for contempt, when asked to
list those politicians to whom he
had contributed, he put the whole
position clearly. He admitted there
by that it would incriminate him
and the politicians if the people
saw the pattern of association be
tween those engaged or who had
been engaged in underworld acti
vities and public officials.
Lawlessness is our abiding sin as
a people, and our greatest danger
is that government will collapse
altogether if it has not already
done so in many areas of American
life. Turning the FBI into a na
tional police-force will not solve
this problem, for the worst of it
remains on the local level where
gangsters and officials are partners
in the perpetuation of lawlessness.
When we, each one of us, recog
nize this and act upon it, this
camarilla , of crooks, whether inside
' or outside the mafia, will cease to
subvert this country. Passing new
legislation of doubtful constitution
ality will not solve our problems;
it will only add more pages to our
law books^rjt/£* MUCK'
