 Section Is paragraph "G" session laws 1929, page 194 states:
 'He shall prepare uniform questions for use in the examin- atiOn of pupils in the Territory completing the elementary school course of study, * * * pro vided however that accredited schools may be exempt from such examination by the Com missioner of Education"
 Accredited elementary schools are defined as those whose work is equal to or above standard set by the Commissioner of Edu- cation"
 How does MT. Breuer expect to obtain improvement in the schools if he doesn't find out what they are doing? How much improvement can the people of Alaska expect in their schools when their Commissioner of Ed ucation frankly admits that all schools meet the standard he has set?
 No, MT. Breuer has been tried and by his own word found wanting. The people of Alaska will answer his open statement that he has done nothing and intends to do nothing by sup porting a real educator who knows his business and is not afraid of work. Superintendent Keller will receive an over Whelming vote at both the pri- mary and general elections.

WHY THEY SUPPORT JUDGE
 JAMES WICKERSHAM

From every section of the Ter ritory come assurances of SUD- port for the candidacy of Judge James Wickersham, who seeks the Republican nomination for Delegate to Congress.
 People know him as man of exceptional ability and as a man who has done big things for the Territory. An instance of the many expressions of favor is the following, taken from a let ter written by one of the force ful and active women of An chorage.
 With best wishes for your il- lustrious success, not only in be- half of the interests of Alaska, but as some degree of recogni- ton of your past helpful and constructive work toward the development of the Territory"
The Alaskan., 1930-04-11
Worthy Candidates

For years past, the friends of Dan Sutherland and Judge Wickersham, in the Legislature, have made fight for the exer- else of more of the home rule that Congress delegated to the Territory, but which has been turned aside to Federal officials. Four years ago, Senator Steel led the fight for elective offices, but lost through the change of mind of one Senator. At the last session, Senator Steel was more successful and as a result, four more Territorial offices will be filled this year through elec- tion, rather than by appoint ment.

Two of the legislators largely re- SponSible for the eliminating success of the desired measure are candidates again in the pre- sent Republican primary. They have proven their worth and worth and courage and there should be no possible question about their renomination-and we don't think that the opposi- tion will be very formidable. We refer to Senator Will A. Steel and Representative Grover c. Vim, both of Juneau.
 These men are certainly en- titled to renomination, and with |. E. Johnson, William L. Paul and Peter Sommer as their run hing mates for the House, they will form a Legislative ticket that can we'll serve the real in- tereSts of the First Division and the Territory at large.

Juneau. This is more than double that of MT. Breuer, and more than equal to the Alaska experience of the other candi- dates for the position combined.
 The high reputation as cap- able schoOlman which Superin- tendent Keller enjoys has been justly earned. He reduced the costs per pupil in both Juneau and Fairbanks, and at the same time expanded the work offered to the students, thereby demon strating that business methods already being taken care of, and which do not and should not, come under the jurisdiction Of his office, and the balance. are of no importance to the schools. TRULY A MARVELLOUS PLATFORM!
 One wonders at the platform until-but ah Here it is, almost at the bottom! T was appoint ed to this office on March IS 1929, and assumed the duties of the office on July 1st. I have not had sufficient time to do any thing constructive" That ex- plains over half of the blanks in his platform. HE DOESN'T KNOW YET WHAT THE DUT- IFS OF HIS OFFICE ARE.
 Seriously, what can we Alas kans expect from a man who, a year after he has been appointed to an office, admits he has done nothing constructive. Nothing but draw his pay and travel on funds supplied by the Territory. When can we expect him to go to work and do something for the salary he is drawing?
 Everyone connected with the schools know the present Com missioner of Education, MT. Breuer, is sidestepping the dut- ies of his office. They have been unable to obtain help from his office, and when he does condescend to give them infor- nation, it is ether wro.ig and is later retracted by his office or it is so worded as 10 be mis leading or evasive.
