3RD DIVISION CANDIDATES FOR LEGISLATURE HIGHLIGHTS OF LOCAL RALLY SPEECHES BY

ritory above those of any special group. She said she was particu- larly interested in working in the interests of the constituents "Who may elect me to the Legislature.
 John Gorsuch (R, candidate for Senate directed his words toward national policy. "This is the year of decision" he said. Tt is the year that may decide the future not only of the nation but of the world. After brief mention of cor ruption, communism in govern ment, and the war in Korea, he scorned the Democrats contention that in spite of high taxes the people have never been so pros perious. Are those boys in Korea having it so good?" he asked. He cited the theological problems that reach to every root of ln- dividual liberty and freedom" In conclusion, he advised, "We must go down the middle of the road to keep away from the extremes of communism and reactionaries."
 William A. Egan tD). candidate for Serate and resident of Valdez, took up the challenge on the inn piled suggestion that the Demo-
 rats got the nation into the Kor- can war. "No one could have re- fused to have gone into the Kor- can conflict" he said. What might have happened by now if we hadn't gone into Korea? World conflict was avoided. In Korea we showed the world that for once we were going to stop the conflict before it was too late" Egan quoted Eisenhower as saying, Our country is in the
 greatest shape it has ever been in history" That's why I feel" added Egan, land I think that's the way the people are going to feel when they go to the polls October IA and in November"
 Marshall Hoppin (R). candidate for Senate, railed against the Democratic administration for getting the U. s. into the Korean War, insisting that i've have Congress who declares war. Ad- mitting 12 years in government service in 13 years in the Terri tory, Hoppin claimed flatly that there is no Civil Service, that it doesn't matter what you know but who you know. This statement was met with chorus of angry denials from the audience, but Hoppin was just as angrily ada mant. Declaring that "we're al- most to the point of dictator ship" in Alaska, he added, We feel that this Territory will have

wonderful future, but it will never succeed if it goes on the way it is today |. Progress, yes, but we're paying for it, paying dearly for it." He cited the Eklut- na Project as an example of poor planning and waste, asking Why was Eklutna ever started" One cent per kilowatt is not cheap power, he said; better that the project had been built in the Su- sitna Valley. He cited highways being built-"We need highways, but we don't need certain high ways that benefit only few people.
 "This is a crucial time in this Valley" he added, "but what moneys we have had have been military expenditures" He also added that what expenditures have been made have gone to feather the nest of those on the right side of the fence.
 Chester Carlson (Dl, candidate for reelection to the House re- focused the election issues on the Territory, drawing from his ex- perience in two terms in the Ter ritorial House representing the Third Division. Identifying him. self as a commercial fisherman

with 36 years in the Territory, he reminded the audience of the dire financial straits facing the Terri tory when the legislature conven- ed in 1949. The Territory was in the red; appropriated funds for schools, hospitals, and other Ter ritorial needs were frozen. That year a basic tax structure was in- augurated; needed schools started going up; other funds were un- frozen. The Territory ended the year 1851 with surplus.
 Switching to a basic issue of the campaign for Delegate to Con- gress, he hailed the tri-partite treaty setting up the Pacific Fish ing Convention as good deal. He said that the Alaskan Fishermen's Union, the packers, labor, and capital joined in the setting up of this treaty. If we didn't have that treaty, we'd have nothing" he concluded, "The Japanese or any other nationals could fish at liberty within three miles of our shores"

In contrast to the hundreds who Hooked to the Wasilla Community Hall Thursday, Sept. 25 to hear the long anticipated debate be- tween the two candidate for Dele gate to Congress, only 40 local people showed up to hear 12 Democratic and Republican can didates for Third Division Legis- lature seats at the political rally sponsored by the Chamber of Commerce last week, Tuesday night.
 A full battery of five loud speakers had been set up on the Valley Theater. All voices boom- ed out even to the empty back seats in the theater. Refreshments for 200 people had been provided for the coffee hour that followed the campaign speeches.
 Candidates were introduced by James Hurley, who acted as mod orator. Speeches were limited to five minutes with an extra min uent's grace to finish the sentence.
 Highlights from the 12 speeches follow:
 M. D. Snodgrass (R), candidate for the Territorial House, confined his remarks to the problems of the Matanuska Valley and the need for vocational training for Alaska's youth. Chief among the agricultural problems of the Val ley, he said, is the lack of funds to prepare land for production. He lsked that an Agricultural branch of the University be located in the Valley where 60 percent of Alaska's agriculture is in opera tion. Lack of opportunities in Alaska is sending our young people Outside for their technical training, he said, and we are los ing them.
 Irene Ryan (D), also candidate for the House defended the Demo- cratic policy of using federal funds to develop Alaska and expressed the opinion that public agencies would work hand in hand with private enterprise in this develop ment. No private industry can UnderWrite that development as a whole" she said, "but if govern ment starts, private industry can come in and continue with the development" She pointed out that 20 years of a Democratic ad- ministration had made great changes in Alaska, suggesting that voters should read up on history to find out what progress had been made under Democrats and under Republicans. In her dream of Alaska's ultimate development, she pictured the Matanuska Val ley as a great industrial basin.
 Pearl Gibson (Dl, candidate for the House, confided that she had come to Alaska l2 years ago with the intention of staying for the rest of her life. She said the schools need a larger appropria- tion from the next Territorial Legislature. Her particular inter ests were enumerated as the old, dependent children, and labor. However, she insisted, she would put the welfare of the entire Ter

we're considered as enemies of society" He said that unless this zest and enthusiasm for work is restored, something great will be lost to the world History shows he said, that the substitution of gov ernment capital for risk capital leads to inevitable collapse. He called for the abolition of price supports and the progressive re- taxation of the benefits" of pub lie housing, short labor laws, and other such legislation "that en- ervates civilization"

Two Hotel Employees Arrested
-Four Years After Fatal BrowI

Two Mayflower Hotel employees
were under arrest today as a per-
sistent detective wound up a four
year investigation of the death of
a man in street brawl.
Detective Sergt. Lloyd B. Furr
started out with a too-perfect
description of one of the men in
volved in the fight. Yesterday he
finally got witnesses to back the
description and arrested the two
hotel employees.
Held for action of the coroner
were Leon C. Rocket, &c, of the
300 block of Thirty-sixth street
NE, and Arnold NJ. Dye, 35, of
the 1900 block of Columbia road
NV.
The victim in the street fight
was Alfred l.. Potter, 48. a World
War I veteran. He died of head
injuries in February, 1949, after
the scuffle outside the Royale
Tavern, 1886 Columbia road NV.
Sergt. Furr said witnesses gave
descriptions of the two missing
participants so perfect that he
suspected they knew more than
they told. One of the men was
described as having false teeth.
Dye has false teeth.
The detective, who lives near
the restaurant, kept on discussing
the case with various people when
he went in for a meal. Finally
it paid off when some of the orig
inal witnesses told him who the
men in the brawl were.
Sergt. Furr said Mr.. Potter ap-
parently tried to sell some pamph-
lets in the restaurant and words
passed between him and the other
two. Later when the pair went
outside, Scuffle started. Sergt.

Appeal Court Upho|ds
Confession Of Man
Illegally Detained

A confession obtained from a
prisoner who is being held illegal
ly is still admissible as evidence,
so long as no coercion was used,
The United States Court of Ap-
peals ruled yesterday.
In the ruling, the court reversed
itself on its reasoning in a pre-
viouS case.
In yesterdays action, the court
refused to set aside the robbery

ficers began questioning him at
10 am. the following day. He
made a complete confession in an
hour and at 4 pm. he was ar
raigned.
The defendant asked the court
TO reverse his conviction on the
ground that he should have been
brought before a committing ma
giStrate at am. the day follow
ing his arrest. He contended that
his detention after 9 am. consti-
tuted unnecessary delay.
But Pierce did not contend that
the detention was coercion which
caused his confession.
In a similar case, the Supreme
Court some time ago held that a
confession, which is expressly held
to result from unlawful detention |
aggravated by other Ill treatment \
is not admissible.
High Court Opinion Cited.
Pierce had cited the high court
opinion. but the Appeals Court 1
brushed aside his contention, de- 4
claring there was no element of
coercion in the present case.
Months ago. the Appeals Court .
ruled that illegal detention alone |
would invalidate a confession. 4
