Ira Rockwell and c. B. Simpler, Cordova delegates to the annual CIO-Alaska Convention held at Ket- chikan this week, are stopping over in Juneau on their return trip to Cordova
 They report that the convention was quite successful, with sev- eral major resolutions pertaining to the welfare of Alaska and it's people decided upon.

 "The Convention has taken no stand for or against the bill" ROCK well said, "but we feel that it IS only fair that Congress wait for an expression of opinion on the suo- ject by Alaskans."
 A second resolution endorses a special session of the Territorial Legislature, but only if the Cover nor feels that legislation for an income tax, property tax, and busi- ness tax, as proposed by Senator Victor Rivers in the l947 session would be enacted.
 The resolution calls for a gradu- ated fish trap tax, and expresses opposition to any kind of sales tax It further requests that the Cover nor refrain from calling special session of the same legislature whicf sold the people of Alaska down th' iriver."
 1 The Convention also resolved that the Governor, "as a public servant of the highest order, who has con. sistently worked for the best in. terests of the people of Alaska bt Ireappointed as Governor of Alaska
 Other endorsements of the Con- vention were for the re-establish. ment of the Coast Guard in Alaska a Territorial appropriation of funds for an administrative assistant tC Alaska's delegate in Congress, pa, increases to members of the Terri torial Legislature, and the return ol 60 percent of the taxes collected or marine motor fuel to municipalitie! for maintaining marine facilities.
