' freeze the status quo.

ly freeze the status quo.
 Tn my discussions, the point has been made emphatically, ire quently in unprintable language: No statehood, if it burdens us with the same kind of political and economic situation we have now"
 On this account the question was frequently asked, "Why should we draw up a constitution, when we aren't sure we want statehood?"
 We should not let ourselves be drawn into controversy, at this point, as to whether we want statehood or not. That is not the immediate issue. The convention will be held anyway. A constitu- tion will be drawn up, and the voters will have a chance to vote on it.
 It should be clearly understood that the coming election of con- vention delegates is not an ir- revocable expression of either approval or disapproval of state hood. What is important now, is to get the best possible constitu- tion drawn up for our considera- tion, then we can decide whether or not we want Alaska to be a state under that particular con- , stitution.

 To the Editor:
 By now most people know of the Constitutional Convention to be held at Fairbanks on Novem- Der 8, for which delegates will be elected on September 13. We have four and half months to be thinking and talking about what kind of a constitution we would like to have if statehood is ever granted by Congress and ac- cepted by Alaskans. During that time, voters may learn what the candidates stand for, and express their own wishes.
 have talked to numerous peo- ple circulating my nominating petition. Many are not so sure they want statehood as they were nine or ten years ago, and some are positive they do not want it. Dissatisfaction with recent politi- cal affairs has caused much con- cern that statehood might mere

The speaker, as would be ex-

and very intelligent questions, and
while there was some natural OPP
position to increasing taxes, the
alliance was strongly in favor of
the Board continuing to provide
good schools for all of the chill
dren of the District. DR.. Browne
further pointed out that our rapid
ly increasing property valuation
still makes this possible without
taxes as high as in some other
Arizona Districts or. in good high
school districts in neighboring
states. ~ 4-.s.'. ;
The talk was received with evil

and the Alliance went on record as
endorsing good schools in the Dist
rict
Arizona sun., 1955-01-14

The speaker is known Dy the
ministers as a member of the
board who was a consistent sup
porter of adequate facilities at
Carver when it was segregated,
and he was one of the board MEM
bers who called on the Board to
vote for the complete integration
of Negro students and teachers in
the District before the United
States Supreme Court handed
down its historic decision.
The Alliance listened attentive
ly to the speakers Interpretation
of the Boards request to the vot-
ers for another bond issue. DR..
Browne quoted facts from the
District Newsletter" which is be-
ing published to be distributed to
voters and taxpayers to answer
questions they may have, regard
ing the bond election, which will
be held January 27.
He explained that the proposed
bond issue is for $265O,OOO, which
added to the present bonded in
debtedness, will bring the bonded
Indebtedness of the District to $9,-
$4,000, which is still less than 4
per cent of the Districts present
assessed. valuation of $240, $780, 900.
The Board first proposed to go
beyond the 43t limitation so that
there would be funds to purchase
at this time, two sites for high
schools which will be needed with.
in the next five years-Sites, which
if purchased now, will no doubt
save many thousands of dollare.
The Board decided, however, that
the people of the District, who ell
ected them to handle the affairs
of their schools, would prefer to
have these matters handled by the
School Board rather than by other
public officials who have little or
no acquaintance with the Districts
school problems. DR.. Browne said
that for that reason the Boards
new request is being held within
the 4eo limitation SO it can retain
its fiscal independence and auto
nomy on all school matters.
The Board proposes also to add
