CONVENE MONDAY
IN 60-DAY TERM
Secretary Theile Will Form
ally Open Eighth Session
at Noon Monday.

The eighth biennial session of the
Alaska Legislature will be formally
opened at noon next Mondoy

present, one Senator Harry f. Pratt.
Fairbanks, and Representative Ralph
l.omen, Nome. Both left Seattle this
morning on the steamer Alaska and
are due here Tuesday morning.
Organization Undecided
1t was said today that neither
branch had perfected states for per
manent organizations. In the Senate,
Senator BARLEY Howard, of the Third
Division. and Senator Forest j. Hunt,
Ketchikan, are most prominently
mentioned for the position of Presi-
dent Both are Republicans. Sena-
tor Charles w Brown, senior Sena-
tor from the Second Division, elect.
ed in 1925, running as an Independent,
was also mentione din connection
with that position.
1t was considered by some of the
Senators that it was unlikely that
any permanent organization would
be attempted Monday. 1t was point
ed out that Senator Pratt will arrive
Tuesday and that as a matter OF
courtesy to him final organization
proceedings would be postponed
pending his arrival.
Two Lead for Speaker
The speakership of the House
seemed today to rest between Rep.
resentative Sumner Smith, Anchor
age, and Representative II. II. Ross

ed there were no other members
being considered Both are Republi
cans.
If decision had been reached as
to election of Secretary for the
Senate and the Clerk of the House,
it had not been made public. II
was expected that their selection
would be deferred until Tuesday.
The House, it was believed, would
probably not organize on permdn-
ent basis Monday Representative
Lomen will not be in attendance be-
fore Tuesday and, following prece-
sble the House will await his com
ing before electing permanent Ofli-
dents set in other years, it is pos
GERS.
Informal talks were being con-
tinued today among members of the
Senate relative to organization mat
ters. No general caucus was held
of Republican members of the
House, efforts to bring about an
informal caucus also being unsuc-
cessful.
Message About Midweek
Gov. George A. Parks is expected
to- deliver his biennial message to
the lawmakers as soon as possible
after permanent organization shall
have been effected. No definite date
has been fixed for this, but it was
believed it would take place about

The Governor has been working
on his message for sometime He
had about completed it today and
was engaged in getting it into final
shape for delivery.
