THE SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR
WASHINGTON
June 24, 1958
Fifty
Dear Mr. President:
Because of some questions which have been
raised concerning Alaska's population, income, per
capita general revenue, and the costs of statehood,
this letter is attached to a memorandum on these sub-
jects. In my sincere opinion, these facts again
demonstrate that Alaskans are ready for statehood.
The bill passed by the House (H. R. 7999) is
acceptable to this Department; it represents a work-
able compromise on many conflicting issues difficult D.
of reconciliation.
