 fred E. Smith

ROBINSON'S SPECIAL CAR, Enroute to Cisco, Texas, Sept. 4.-- Having opened his campaign with an. attack upon those assailing Gov. Alfred E. Smiths personal and religious records, Senator Jos eph T. Robinson moved onward today from Dallas to Cisco for his second address in a drive for the Vice Presidency, after delivering prepared address of the Demo- cratic Party's position toward Labor, in Dallas, yesterday.

of years, and now are struggling flor development under a Federal leasing system, which never has been a success anywhere.
 Bureau Control Unsatisfactory
 "The leading industry of Alas ka, just now. is the fisheries; from it we get most of our Territorial
 revenue; most of our towns and
 most of our people derive their support directly or indirectly from
 this industry. Yet we have ab- solutely no voice in it's regulation or control. IL is regulated from Washington. by the Department of
 Commerce, through the Bureau of Fisheries. One man in Alaska, the representative of the Depart ment of Commerce, has the power to stop all fishing summarily. He can ruin a whole community by his mere dietum.
 "The Alaska Democratic plat form is opposed to this policy. It declares for home rule, for full Territorial government, including control of the fisheries and game. That is the issue in this campaign in Alaska. We believe that we should be allowed to control our own resources; that we should be permitted to make our own mistakes and suffer from and profit by them. We believe our in- dustries, including the fisheries, should be regulated by general law, made by our territorial legis- lature, as opposed to federal bu- reaucratic control. The Demo- cratic National Platform has en- dorsed our stand.
 Alaska needs all the Federal aid she can get. We want more roads, more harbor improvements, more navigation aids, more public buildings, but far more important than all these, we want and de- mand what every other Territory had, and what we have been de- | prived of, that is: the benefit of and right to control our own re- sources.
 Not one step forward has been made in this direction since we were granted a Territorial Legisla- | ture with very limited powers in 1912. In fact we have gone back i ward For the past eight years the policy of the government has inclined more and more toward l control and paternal | ism. with no apparent effort made | by anybody to combat it. We are , getting into a bureaucratic rut and ! will stay there fo. the next fifty l years unless a determined effort : is made by the Alaskans them selves and their representatives | and friends in Congress to get out of it.
 If l am so fortunate as to be elected Delegate to Congress, that shall be my fight, and in that fight l feel assured of the as-
