 OF CAMP AICN
Nominee for Delegate Fav- ors Home Rule Including
 Fish and Game Control
 WOULD REPEAL ALASKA BONE DRY LEGISLATION
Wa ,laska on Equal Basls with Rest of Coun-
 try Under Volstead Act

George B. Grigsby, Democratic candidate for Delegate to Congress arrived in Juneau yesterday from Ketchikan. and is leaving for the Westward today on the Aleutian He is accompanied by Mrs. Grigs- by and they will proceed directly to Fairbanks where MT. Grigsby will open his campaign.
 MT. Grigsb. outlined to The Empire his conception of the cam paign issues in Alaska, as fol lows:
 q stand squarely on the Ma tional Democratic platform adopt ed at Houston and on the Terri torial platform adopted at Seward In fact both, my opponent, MT Sutherland, and myself, are pledg- ed under oath by our declarations of candidacy, to support the Ma tional platforms of our respective parties.
 "The Republican National Plat form declares for a continuance of the present administration $ policy toward Alaska The Demo- cratic platform promises a re- versal oi this policy, declares for full territorial government for Alaska, and administration of all offices by bona fide Alaskan resi- dents. The issue presented to the voters of Alaska is plain. If they favor a continuance of the present bureaucratic system they should vote for MT. Sutherland's s reelection. He is pledged .under oath to support it. If they be- lieve in local self governmental the removal of the limitations on the powers of our legislature, which are numerous and never before were imposed on any Ter ritory-they should support me.
 Wants Territorial Control
 T believe absolutely in full con trol by the Territory of the fish cries and game. The present system of regulation by the Bu- reau of Fisheries, is unsatisfac- tory. Our fisheries can not be successfully regulated from Wash ington with justice to all con- cerned in the industry.
 Against Bone Dry Law
 I am emphatically in favor of the repeal of the Alaska Bone Dry Law. No other Territory under exclusive Federal jurisdiction, has such law. The people of Alas ka. never voted for it. Notwith- standing the Supreme Court of the United States has held the Alaska Bone Dry Act superseded by the National Prohibition Act with respect to search warrants, yet mere possession is still a crime for which a first offender may be punished by year in jail and a thousand dollar fine, and intoxication is as severely punish ed. Recently secured from the President of the United States a commutation of sentence for hardworking fisherman who was sentenced to six months in the Federal Jail for a single of fense of drunkenness.
