KETCHIKAN FOR
THE DIVISION
OF TERRITORY
First City Starts Movement to
Divide Alaska Along Lines ,
Suggested by Harding.
Ketchikan has fathered a move
ment looking toward the division j
of the Territory of Alaska. The:
Commercial Club at that place last:
week passed a retention asking the,
Ketchikan City Council to call a I
convention of those In all sections
of Alaska indicated by President
Harding as being nearly ready for
Statehood.
The Ketchikan Chronicle's ac
j count of the action of the Conimcr
[c.lal Club says:
“According to the suggestions to
be laid before the Council, that I
body wil be asked to set a date for,
the convention, and then to coni '
njunirate with the municipalities in j
that section of the Territory in-;
tereeted with a view to having
them send delegates. The invita
tion will extend to all that part of
Alaska which President Harding, in
his Seattle speech, intimated might
in the not distant future become "a
State. That is, all of the Panhandle
of Alaska and possibly a small por
tion of the Southern part of the
mainland of the Territory, if the
residents of that section so desired.
This would go so far as to take in
the Copper River basin.
“It Is pointed out that forstry
officials and others have recom
mended this division, that the peo
ple of Southeastern Alaska are
almost a unit in its favor, and that
the contemplated convention could
I give the movement a momentum
.which would have effect at the na
tional capital.”
