CONSTITUTION WASN'T PERFECT
 (AnchOrage Daily TimeS)


 Nearly 30 years after the Constitution of the United States was written and submitted to the State, Thomas Jeffer- son wrote: Some men look at constitu- tions with sanctimonious reverence, and deem them like the Ark of the Covenant -too sacred to be touched They ascribe to the men of the preceding age a wis dom more than human :.
 That reverence which Jefferson noted has grown through the years Today we are inclined to be forgetful of the Con- stitutions early history and of the amendments which we have seen fit to make in it. Because the Constitution is great and impregnable today, we some times talk as if it had been conceived in harmony and born in triumphant strength and full-blown perfection.
 The structure of free representative government explicit in its final form was the fruit of expediency as we'll as ideal ism. Smaller states, bucking control by New York, Pennsylvania, and Virginia, the Big Three - and how modern that sounds-won such compromise victories as proportional representation in the House and the popular vote for presiden-

succeeds Foster L. McGovern, who has held the post since 1882. McGovern resigned from the Chamber May 1 to accept ap- pointment as a vice-president of the National Bank of Commerce of Seattle.
 Ganson has served as manager of the State Development of the Seattle Chamber for the past three years and previous to that was for several years manager of the chamber of commerce at Pull man, Washington.
 In his state development work, he has travelled widely through out the state of Washington. Many of the projects on which he has been active in the fields of fish cries, forestry, mining, agricul- ture and fur farming are directly related to similar developments in Alaska. This summer he will spend several weeks in the North acquainting himself more thor oughly with the resources, devel- opment prospects and people of the Territory.
 MT. Ganson has done outstand- ing work in his state development post" said Christy Thomas, exec utive vice-president of the Cham Der. 'This experience should prove of great value in his Alas kan work, which entails so many similar projects and problems"
 The Chambers Alaska Commit tee, which Ganson will serve as secretary, is under the chairman ship of E. N. Patty, president of Alluvial Colds, Inc, and we'll known in mining circles here. The committee has a membership of approximately 70 men, all of whom are keenly interested in Alaska's development. In all it's activities the committee empha- sizes the close relationship exist ing between Seattle and the Terri tory.

tial electors by threatening to walk out of the Convention.
 The Constitution was presented to the people with considerable fear Some of the delegates went home before the job was done. Three who remained refused to sign the document. Others were re- luctant. Elbridge Gerry thought that it would provoke civil war. Jefferson, in Europe, was astonished that it contained no guarantee of basic human rights
 At first the Constitution found it's SUD- port among the rich, and it's opposition from the poor and handful of rich, "vi- sionary'' champions of democracy. The series of Federalist papers by Hamilton, Madison and Jay helped greatly in swinging popular opinion. But even so, Rhode Island, which had refused to send delegates to the Convention, waited three years before ratifying the Consti- tutiOn
 The moral of this short refresher course is obvious The San Francisco Conference, also sailing an uncharted course, is bound to produce an imperfect plan. By refusing it we should have nothing to take its place. By accepting and amending and improving it we can look with confidence toward world in which men may live out their lives in peace.
 The point is that the Constitution has grown more democratic, stronger and more effective with the passing years. Today, thanks to the Bill of Rights and subsequent amendments, it stands be- fore the world as paragon of political right and wisdom, however short we may fall of fulfilling it's letter and spirit
