Gruening Favors Strong Executive Power for State

FAIRBANKS, R-Former Gov. Gruening says he's strongly, in favor of having men who help run the hoped-for State of Alaska se- lected by the governor and not directly responsible to the people.
 That was the stand taken by the territory's former chief executive in an appearance before an open committee of the Constitutional Convention during the past week. end. Other speakers supported Gruening's stand
 In the opinion of the former governor, the people should be trusted to make wise choice of governor and the elected governor should appoint administrative of ficeS.
 Gruening said the reason Alaska now has so many elective officials is because the territory never had an elected governor.
 The Executive Committee of the Constitutional Convention is now working on the problem with Del egate Victor Rivers as chairman.
 One proposal advanced by the committee came under the fire of the ex-governor. The committee proposed that "there be a secre- tary of state to serve as the second elective officer of the state, bear ing the same qualifications for election as the governor and being of the same political party"
 Gruening said if the governor and the secretary of state were from the same party it would weaken the power of the execu- tive. Dels. Sundborg and Bucka- lew also protested the provision.

PROPOSAL NO. p
( Contributed )

A proposal has recently been introduced before the Constitutional Convention in session at the Univer- sty of Alaska to combine the of the Second and Fourth Judicial Divisions, and the Court from Nome. The nearly 14,O0O residents of the Second Judicial Division have long thought that the advent of Statehood would bring to them the great opportunities of development which have been denied them in the past. This startling proposal identified as Proposal Mo- 22 illustrates astounding lack of foresight and apparently regretabe absence of faith in the future of the State of Alaska.
 The territory embraced by what is the Second Judicial Division of Alaska is of the richest and most highly mineraized regions known to the world today The development of these great resources so long sleeping giant, rests upon the future advantages that only Statehood bring It is conceivable that, with the curtailment of military spending in aska by the Federal Government the future economy of Alaska including that of the booming Third and Fourth Divisions may depend largely upon the Second Divi sions mineral wealth. Can easily with our eyes to the fuure cast this vast rich aside? It is anything away from the Second Judicial Division This long standing stepchd Division needs every chance and opportunity for development
 Are we so misguided and shortsighted in our quest for Statehood that will withdraw from pOen- tialy weathest and yet most underdeveoped the advantages of local government and Court facilities? These will be pressing necessity the develops, and of the Second Division have confidence that the Delegates of the Constitutional Convention will lift their sights to the future and go record strongly opposed Proposal Mo- 22 and the principals set forth in that proposal

Repentunt Porter Gives Up
In Theft Not Blamed on Him

from the threat of the 10-year
sentence. and gave him one year
in prison and a SIS fine.
This is one night I'm going
to get down on my knees and
thank the Lord" said johnson.
Two Richmond officers and a
former employer supported
johnson in his case.
Back in April, 1858, johnson
said he pried open a cash box
of radio station WLEE in the
basement of the building. He
said he took $500 and went back
to finish his work.
Sometime later, he left for
New York and got a job as hospi-
tai orderly.
But the money began to prey
on his mind.
Last February, he approached
a policeman in the Washington
ID. c. bus terminal and told
what he had done. johnson was
brought back here to face some
amazed officers.
