The Cordova daily times., 1920-11-09

The Cordova Republican Club has given it's unanimous endorsement to George C. Hazelet for governor of Alaska This action was taken at a special meeting, held last night in the Eagle lodge room, and which was largely attended by the members. President N a h a n a e l Green was in the chair and after stating the object of the meeting James l.. Galen, chairman of the local campaign committee, tool. the floor and in masterly speech, set ting forth the qualifications of Cor dovas candidate and giving the best of reasons why he should be selected as Alaska's chief executive, he presented the name of George C. Hazelt for govrnOr of Alaska. Sec Onding speeches were also made by Dr. w. H. Chase, F. F. Foster, George Dooley and Malcolm Brock, who paid glowing tribute to the quail fiCations of our toWnsman and urged that every member of the club get busy and not rest content until the appointment had been made and confirmed
 In presenting the name of MT. Hazelet for governor, MT. Galen said:
 Mr. President, Ladies and Gentle, men:
 A little over year ago, to be exact on September 19, 1919, we or ganized this Republican Club.
 Our idea in organizing at that time wts to line up and to harmon ize all Republicans in this section so that by united action we might be able to assist in the accomplish ment of the magnificent victory, both nationally and territorially. wit messed on Tuesday last.
 How well we have succeeded is eloquently evidenced by the vote cast on April 27 in the primary cleo ton, by which we reaped the first benefits of organization, and, again on November ?, when we returned publican candidate from delegate to congress to road commissioner in the face of no trifling opposition I can assure you.
 So in this respect we have been fpnctioning most beautifully and sue cassfully.
 Another important purpose in or gonizing this club was that VIZ might be in a favorable position to par ticipate in and share the fruits of victory by directing party policies and appointments in the territory.
 Mr. President, we have reached that stage tonight, and, since we have contributed so bountifully to the success of the party for one do not believe in sleeping upon our rights.
 Some may have the opinion and urge that action at this time is hur- ried and inadvisable since most of the offices, both territorial and di- visional, do not become available by expiration of their respective terms until about one year hence. I fully agree that this argument does apply

C0RD0YA GIVES UNANIMOUS SUPPORT 20 T0WNSMAN FOR
 CHIEF EXECUTIVE TERRITORY

with respect to divisional offices such &s' judges, marshals and so on. but it does not apply to territorial offices and particularly to that of governor As it very often happens, and such practice might well uni formly obtain, that when a governor who is the chief executive and spokesman for all the people of the territory, finds that he is not in accord with them and the new ad- ministraton he resigns forthwith Consequently this office may become vacant any time after the lth of March next.
 Therefore I am going to propose that we go after this, the biggest job in Alaska, because we have gained the right to ask for it and because, in my opinion, we have the biggest and best man in Alaska to fill it. His residence in Alaska for upwards of twenty years, his eX- celent business judgment, tact, affa- bility. broad mindedness, and hon esty and integrity beyond question are but a few of his qualifications The vote of confidence accorded him by the electors of the territory in the primary election last spring and particularly the all but unani- nous vote of his home town and vicinity, the manner in which he executed the trust at that time con- ferred, and, finally, his tireless eff forts and political sagacity in bring ing all Republicans to work in har- mony in one big happy family, thus making possible the victory recently achieved. designate him as the logi- cal candidate for this high office.
 Mr. President, I have the honor to move, and I'll assure you I deem it a great honor, that the Cordova Republican Club, in this meeting as sembeld, endorse for governor of the territory of Alaska, our fellow towns man and respected and worthy citi- zen, MT. George c. Hazelet.
 After the club had unanimously endorsed the candidacy of MT. Hazelet teh following resolution presented by Thos. S. Scott was passed
 Whereas, the Cordova Republican Club has on this day unanimously endorsed Mr. Geo. C. Hazelet for governor of the territory of Alaska, believing him to be candidate who embOdies and represents all the qualifications most desirable for that high office and one whom all sec, tions may feel proud to support, now therefore, be it
 Resolved, that the Cordova Re publican Club earnestly asks the CO operation of the Territorial Republi can Organization and all Republican Clubs throughout the territory in the movement to secure the appoint ment of Geo. c. Hazelet for governor of the territory of Alaska.
 Be it further resolved that a copy of these resolutions be sent to the da1epate-e1ect to congreSs the ter ritorial national committeeman, mem bers of the territorial Republican Organization, and to each Republi can Club throughout the territory

Adopted by LegiOners.
Sergeant Jasper Post. No. IS, Amerl

Sergeant Jasper Post, No. 10, Ameri-
can Legion, at meeting in the
armory, 472 l. street northwest
adopted the following resolution In
regard to the soldiers bonus now in
committee at Congress: ..
"Be it resolved, That Sergeant Jas
per Post. American Legion. indorses
the action of the legion, and the, ac-
tivities of its legislative COMMITTEES
for the following reasons:
"First-By the operation OF the Sc
lective service act millions Of men in
lucrative positions were taken from
home and subjected to the hardships
and dangers Of military service at
practically nominal remuneration,
rendered even more so by ruthless
profiteering on the part Of those not
in service.
"Second-The Government. by I'M
paralleled prodigality toward every
one not in the military service, en-
abled large fortunes to be accumu-
lated, and when the soldiers were dis
charged with $50 Substantially half
a months pay of the poorest paid
civil employes) they found, and still
find, themselves face to face with an
outrageously high cost of living due
to the war orgy OF extravaganza In
which all who stayed at home par
ticipated.
"Third-what IS raised by taxation
from families who contributed sol.
diers will be indirectly returned to
them in bonus according to their con-
tributions in soldiers, which should
eliminate objection from that source,
and such families as receive nothing
by way of bonus have contributed
nothing in flesh and are consequently
paying no more than in justice they
should"
The next meeting Of the post will
be held in the armory tomorrow even
ing at 8 o'clock.

ALLIES WITHHOLD
AID FOR GERMANY
Accede 10 French Conviction
That Extent Of Economic Coz
lapse Is Exaggerated.
Nv EARLE 4. REEVES.
international News service.D

LONDON, March 10-The conviction
OF Frence that the Germans deiioer-
ately exaggerated the extent OF their
economic collapse caused the supreme
council TO withhold its manifesto
containing plans for economic rehet
OF Germany. IL was stated In authori-
tative quarters today.
The Daily Telegraph reveals that
the allies are amending the economic
memorandum TO conform with the
French wishes and to allay French
fears that Germany may come back
too quickly to a dominating position
In international relations.
The reparations commission Will eH-
ercise close vigilance over the distri-
button OF allied aid in Germany ana
the rehabilitation OF German indus
try. II has been decided that no spe-
cihc revenues of the German state
shall be mortgaged except on con-
sent of the commission. Thus inc
allies will throw the burden or the
German indemnity upon German In
dustry and commerce.
The French view towards German
economic conditions is supported by
Lord Leyenhulme, one OF the richest
and most powerful manufacturers IN
the British empire. He said:
II would put Germany at the bot
tom and Austria next in the list OF
countries entitled to any considera-
ton. The Supreme Council must act
very cautiously so that Germany may
not be allowed to utilize the help we
give her to attack France. Some or
my friends who have just visited
Germany say that there is not SIN
gle sign of repentance in any Ger
man"
Lord Robert Cecil declared that
the Supreme Council overemphasized
the territorial questions and mimi
mized the economic matters.
1--WE have nothing to gain from the
economic ruin of Germany" he said.
THE European countries are so in
terdependent that disaster to one
would be reflected to others. But
Germany must have assistance. That
is necessary to the restoration Of
her commercial stability.

ROOSEVELT URGES MORE
PAY FOR U.S.. employees

Franklin D. Roosevelt. Assistant
Secretary Of the Navy. Is the latest
Government official who has come out
squarely in behalf of higher salaries
for employees Of Uncle Sam.
Congress must make up its mind
to give adequate pay to Government
servants and to allow greater latitude
and discretion to executive heads of
departments in fixing rates of com
pensation," Mr.. Roosevelt has writ
ten in a letter to Congressman Moore
of Virginia.
II do not hesitate to say that
could run the Navy Department more
efficiently in every way with Is per
cent fewer employees IL could have
authority to take the salaries of these
employees and add the amount, at my
discretion, to the pay Of those who
are experts in their own line OF work
