Endorse Proposal to
Try for Division. i
.1
t
The plan anvanced by the Ketchi
tan Commercial Club for a conven
ion of Southeastern Alsaku communl
lea, and if they desire U) participate,
owns In the Copper Uiver delta and ''
Prince William Sound district, to ’
ilscuss possible division of the Ter- r
■itory, Is being received here with f
onsiderable enthusiasm and is en- *
lorsed by many business men. It is
ndicated that local endorsement may
>e given. J
"I believe that the suggestion is
imely and worthy of serious consider- -
ition," said Mayor I. Goldstein. “The
ieclaration of late President Harding
it Seattle that these districts in a
lew years could well be given state
tood imparts an importance to a lo
■al movement for division that it
would otherwise lack,” he added.
Allen Shattuek, President of the
Funeau Chamber of Commerce, also
mdorsed the idea. “There seems to
)e a general unanimity of opinion
hat a division of Alaska is desirable,
md inevitable in the future. This
jeing true, the earlier it is brought
ibout the better It will be for all
tarts of the Territory," he said. He
telieved that a convention such as
troposed by the Ketchikan business
nen’s organization should be held
n the near future and the matter put
sefore the next session of Congress.
