Recommends Literncv Bill

The third resolution looms so importantly on the horizon of Al aska political history that it is deemed adyisabl to quote verbatim.
 WHEREAS, The American Le- zion as a national organization is of record favoring the promotion of educational facilities and through it's Posts has endeavored to encour- age education, believing that edu- cation is the firmest foundation up- on which to build a Nation, and
 WHEREAS, The Territory of Alaska has educational facilities enabling both old, as we'll as young, to obtain an education. fitting them to exercise duties of citizenship, and
 WHEREAS, We believe that the right to vote should be held a sa cred privilege, which should be conscientiously exercised; and, in order that the right of franchise will receive it's proper value, it should be qualified by ability to read and write, and
 WHEREAS, The passage of the so-ealled "Literacy Bill" at the last session of the Territorial Legisla- ture does not remedy the present situation and is inadequate,
 THEREFORE, Be It Resolved That the Ameriaen Legion. Depart ment of Alaska, in Convention As sembled in Wrangell, petition Con. gress to favorably consider the bill introduced in the House of Repre- sentatiyes by the Hon. w. H. White IT,. Congressman from Maine, com monly known as the White Liter acy Bill'', and urge it's immediate passage, and
 BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That copies of this resolution be sent to the Hon. Chas. F. Curry Chairman, Committee on Territories, House of Representatives, Hon. w. H. White, Jr., House of Represen- tatives, and Hon. Dan Sutherland, Delegate to Congress from Alaska

Recommend History Textbook

The second resolution assumes the nature of a recommendation that the Territorial educators adopt a history textbook for use in the seventh and eighth grades of the grammar schools which is highly authoritative, thorough and unbiased in it's presentations of various as- poets of American history The nu- cleus of the resolution adopted by the American Legion, in Con- vention Assembled. is that we strongly urge the school authorities of this Territory and it's towns to acquire and to employ this textbook (United States History, published by the U. S. History Publishing Corporation, for teaching United States History in the schools of the Territory.

WHITE LITERACY BILL ENDORSED
 BY CONVENTIOH
Legion Invites National Commander To 1927 Convention: Textbook Is Commended; Auxiliary Urges Community Property Law.

In the separate business sessions of the American Legion and the Auxiliary four resolutions were passed relating to vital issues be- fore the Department of Alaska for the coming year. The most i'm portant ones discussed by the Le- zion are known as Resolutions 1.2 and 3.
The Wrangell sentinel., 1926-05-06
Natl Commander Invited

The first of the three drafts ex- tends a cordial and urgent invitation to the National Commander to visit Alaska in 1927 and, if possible, to so arrange his itinerary, to be present at the Department Conven- tion to be held at Cordova.
 It is thought that the attendance of so important a figure at the next convention will attract and stimu- late many members to. join the Le- zion and materially aid the Legion in it's work.

LAST ROOM OPENED.
Board Fits Up Fourth Room FOR
Use in Parker School.

Use in Parker School.
That the population OF North
field school children is growing
is evidenced in the decision OF
the Board of Education to open
the last room in the Parker ave-
nue. school for the first time when
the institution opens this fall.
The action was taken at recent
meeting of the Board.
Following the completion OF the
building, a little over a year ago,
only two rooms were equipped
and used. Since that time third
one has been equipped, and now
the final room will be fitted up.
After being janitor at the MIL
road school for more than 20
years, A. r. Vickers has rendered
his resignation to the Board be-
cause of ill health. No one has
yet been appointed to succeed
him. Board members accepted
his resignation with regret. Al
bert Mackey, who has been the
janitor at the Parker avenue
school since its opening, has
been reappointed for another
term.
DR.. Leland S. Madden, Of Plea
santville, has been elected medi.
cal inspector of the two schools.
His work in the past has been
very satisfactory.
Bids for coal have been recelv'
