most satisfactory results on the whole are obtained through state controlled stores. If by adopting this system the excessive consump- tion of liquor in Alaska could be reduced, not only would crime and relief expenses be reduced, but there would be more money spent for really useful goods to the beneA fit of merchants in other lines .sof business ~
 Social Question
 Merchants in other lines of busi- ness should not. become alarmed that the handling of liquor by Ter ritorial stores is an entering wedge for the Territory entering lines of legitimate business any more than prohibition was the entering wedge to prohibit all business. I challenge anyone to show that there is any more of tendency shown by the 13 states which handle liquor through state stores to enter other lines of business than is shown by states that do not so handle the liquor problem It is a social ques- tion and not a financial one.
 Another thing to keep in mind is that the liquor situation is be- coming so bad that unless its traf fic is curbed there is danger that within a few years the people will become so disgusted that they will again vote in prohibition. &

much per capita for liquor as Washingtonians. The cutting out of sales promotions such as adver- Using and window displays alone would do much to promote temper anee. The very object of control through public agencies is to pro- mote temperance and not primarily for revenue. As long as the traffic is in private hands every effort to promote sales will be resorted to. Also, sales to Indians and EskmoS could be better controlled by Ter ritorial sales and that without gross race discrimination.
 Bootlegging
 It has been contended that there would be more bootlegging with Territorial control than there is at present. Perhaps so. I have often heard the expression that our pres ent laws are not so bad if they only were enforced. That is the situation. The very nature of the liquor traffic makes it an outlaw and no law whatsoever that places restrictions on it will be enforced 100 percent. The greater the re- strictions the more they will be disregarded. Laws should be sought that will result in the greatest amount Of temperance with the least compatible amount of law breaking.

the retail outlets to the central or flee would be so difficult and ex- pensive as to absorb all profits which might be hoped for. As stated in the beginning of this letter, this Board, in addition to operating this monopoly system, has complete centralized licensing con- trol of the sale of beer and wine and consequently I am familiar with both methods of control It is my belief that you will find the licensing system a better method than the monopoly system for AL aska.'
 Social WeifarS
 The supporters of the referendum claim they are motivated by de- sire for social welfare; but they have no monopoly on the virtue If desiring the welfare of our citi- zens. They contend that Territor- ial control is best and we contend the present system is the best for the welfare of our citizens Tenn perance is an admirable virtue but it is not to be insured by prohibi- tion, Territorial controlled dispen- carries, nor any other system; it goes deeper than that.
 Prohibition was a radical excur- sion into the realm of morals and social welfare. It proved a ghastly failure, eorrupting citizens, officials and youth. Territorial control would revive most of the vices of { h e prohibition era We should learn by experience and not be eager to experiment with every cure-all sys- tenn proposed by utopian minded individuals.
 We do not destroy the business of automobile, gasoline, ammunition 0" drug dealers, simply because some individuals may misuse the products they sell. There is nothing immoral in selling liquor and the dealers under the present system may be trusted to be just as moral as a coterie of officials controlling a ter monopoly might be.
 Free From Graft
 Juneau is a mining and fishing center and as such is, in my opin- ion, a remarkably well ordered town. The present system is free from graft, free from the bottle guzzling that seems a coneomitant of sys- tems where liquor cannot be ob- tained by the glass; it is out in the open, the proven and best prac- tical system known. Regulate it more if you deem it necessary but don't tinker with doubtful systems to the ruination of citi- zens who have invested their money in a business which IS just as moral and legal as any other business.
 To the thinking man and woman who truly has the interest of AL aska at heart, it must be obvious that this proposed referendum IS just another objectionable form of the creeping paralysis of state so- cialism that has been expounded for Alaska from time to time. The keystone of free economy in busi- ness enterprise, is the divorcement of our economic life from political
