The Eleventh Session of the AL aska Legislature, which ended it's work officially at midnight Thurs day but actually at 5:15 pm. yes terday, kept it's appropriations to about $2,OOOO00 and made only one raise in taxes. It passed 127 laws and repealed almost as many obsolete or unnecessary statutes from the code.
 It made one reduction in taxes, exempting fresh fish buyers from one-tenth of a cent per pound un- til their purchases shall amount to 400 ,0O0 pounds in any single year.
 Many Important Measures
 It passed number of important laws. Included among these was the school reorganization measure creating Board of Education em- powered with sweeping authority to administer and control, through the Commissioner of Education, rural schools and in less degree, the schools in incorporated towns and incorporated school districts.
 It enacted a law for controlling, regulating and taxing the beer and wine traffic, placing the issuance of licenses in the hands of the Fed eral district court in each of the four Divisions. Refusal Thursday morning of the local court to grant a license to a local business house led to an attempt to amend the law just passed to transfer the i- censing to the Territorial Auditor, and another to create a board of appeals composed of the Governor, Auditor and Attorney General.
 The former effort was launched in the House and the latter in the Senate. The House passed it's bill by a 15 to 1 vote. But it failed to be admitted in the Senate where three Senators voted against motion to suspend the rules to receive and consider it. It re- ouired six of the eight votes to. pass the motion.
 Senate Passes Bill
 The Senate then passed it's own bill to create the board of appeals. This was received by the House which promptly amended it by striking out all reference to the board and inserting in it's stead the provisions of the original House measure.
 In the amended form it. was passed, then returned to the Sen ate. There it was met with stlff opposition A point of order against receiving it was made, and Presl- dent Shattuek ruled it could not be admitted. It was then returned to the House.
 That led to a deadlock over the appropriations measure that lasted all night and until almost 10 o'clock yesterday. In that measure the House had slashed salaries and wages Is per cent. The Senate had amended it to make an eight and one-third per cent cut. Several oth- CT amendments were also made. The House refused to concur in them. and the big money bill was oiyen to a. conference committee Of three members from each house.
 Balk at Reductions
 rryoc TOO o1,eJ uyitJ, ont difficulty on all of the differ ences except the salary and wage reductions. On that issue, the conferees divided The House stuck out for the Is per cent, but was willing to accept the lower Senate rate if the latter would admit the heer law amendment it had re- iected earlier in the evening.
 No effort was made to exact any nromise from the Senate that IL would pass that measure. But the House did want to have record vote taken on the bill itseh. The Senate refused to yield in the matter. After hours of discusslon' the conferees agreed to compro- mise on a straight 10 per cent re- duction. This paved the way TOT closing down the session. Ne" bills were drafted and late yester- day afternoon the final motions were made.
