 The measure. House Bill No. 40, was reported from the Judiciary Committee this morning. Mir. Murray and Mir. Decker recommended it's passage, MT. Price and Mr. Daly op- posing strenuously it's passage, and MT. Ross, fifth member, signing it mo report"
 Text of Statements
 The adverse report signed by Daly and Price said:
 We do not concur in this report and recommend that the bill do not pass because we arc unalterably op- posed to the change or overthrow of our government by force. violence or destruction of property, or the ad- vocacy of such means. There is an orderly way laid down by our Con stitution to change our laws and government of the people of the United States if their wisdom see fit so to do.
 And for the further reason, we it do not pass. that the people of Alaska do not care to pro- claim to the world that they are in favor of letting go unpunished those who advocate such damnable doc trines which, if carried out, would moan a condition of terrorism, blood shed, anarchy and chaos"

HOMES EXPOSITION OPENS

After month of earnest planning
 and careful preparation. everything l: | in readiness for the opening of the ] first annual Better Homes. Exposition
 at the State Armory, Hartford, today April 2, for run of two weeks, con- tinuing up to and including Saturday April IA. The exposition will be open
 daily from 1 to II p. m. and its two hundred exhibits, of a most diversi- fled and interesting nature, will make a wide appeal to every member of the family. The sponsors of the big ar
 mory show, the Connecticut Exposi-
 tion company, have worked indefati- gably to make the exposition vie with the best that are held yearly in the largest cities of the country
 Everything that goes to make the modern home complete, from cellar to roof, will be shown in the attrac- lively arranged booths that will cover the immense floor space of the ar mory. In addition to the usual dis plays, the Better Homes exposition will be noted for it's novelties. Fore most, perhaps, is the complete brick dwelling, fully equipped and furnish ed, erected on the armory floor by the Eastern Brick Go. of East Berlin, Conn. The idea was original with k. O. Clark, president of the company. and the feat has never been accom- plished before in this country due to the fact that there are few buildings of sufficient area to accommodate the erection of a house within their walls. The brick house" is sure to be one of the novel features of the exposition.
