 It is an opportunity to replace men who, in many cases, have shown they have "axes to grind also to put in men who really have the interests of Alaska at heart in this time of rehabilita- ton of the domestc economiy which comes after period of war.

 We want no more fiascos such as made the Territorial Legislature a laughing stock for the 48 states and their territories in 1947.
 Taxpayers expect an even assessment and a greater economy than ever before in the ad,ninstra tion of territorial affairs.
 There are ways and means of attaining this end
