If one is alarmed or disturbed about some particu- lar article or section, be very care fui to discover if there is not some check and balance factor concern ing it elsewhere in the constitu- tion. For in our American demo- cratic system the separation of powers and check and balance principles are very intricate.

We must further recognize that state and local governments are now big business, Specialists are needed to run them, consider ing the technical services the people now desire governments to furnish for them, However, this business type government demands a more alert, watchful, responsive, and responsible citizenry-that is, voters who will not be apathetic, but constantly fulfilling their ob- legations.

Ratify Alaska's Constitution Urged By U. of A. Professor

improve Alaska's political, econom- ic, or social conditions will be greatly handicapped unless we prove both to the Congress and the American public that we do have enough maturity to assume our responsibilities. For, unfortun- ately, the American public and its government officials consider us in the light of their preconceived notions of Alaska, and are woeful- ly ignorant of our real conditions and capacities.
 This constitution making process is the most complete, concrete and by far the most impressive method to reveal our maturity to our rul- CTS. Therefore it is to our advan- tage to have large turnout in the April "A election, coupled with an overwhelming acceptance of the constitution.
 This constitution for the propos- ed State of Alaska definitely de- serves ratification by the vast ma jority of Alaskans on it's merits alone. It is the best possible con- stitution that could have been draf- ed to insure stable and prosper ous state for the long range future.
 Before the specific articles of the proposed constitution can be SenSibly analized, there are sever. al general considerations of great importance that must be constant ly in our minds.
 l. A constitution should be only a general statement of the funda- mental law of the state.
 2. The delegates to the Alaskan constitutional convention wer held within certain prescribed linn itations. They had to comply with the several requirements that the U. s. government has included in all it's various proposed enabling acts for our eventual statehood.
 3. Our delegates profited great ly from the experiences and mis- takes of the several states in their contitution making process. Also they definitely did take into ac- count Alaska's peculiar problems and needs.
 4. Extremely important to con
