SENATE SPEEDS RES0LUTION0 ON
 SEA LION LAWS
Loaded Calendar Tackled in Long Session on
 Wednesday

While the Equal Rights" issue and a joint session with the House were the feature bits of business transacted by the Alaska Senate yes terday afternoon that body also got in several other good licks to- ward clearing up it's over-burdened calendar
 Senate Bill No. 8, the land registration measure introduced by Senator N. R. Walker, was amended to require advertising both for sale at public auction and for lease, of lands that may be acquired by the Territory under its provisions. The bill was then voted on to third reading.
 Senate Concurrent Resolution No l, offered by Senator Andy Gunder- sen, was speeded along under sus- pended rules, and, without amend ment, was given final passage. There were no dissenting votes. The res olution asks lifting of present pro- hibitions on hunting and killing sea lions in Territorial waters, and pro- vides for the appointment of com mittee from the two houses of the Legislature to attend the coming meeting of the Alaska Game Com mission to secure the recommenda- ton of that body that present regu- lations be lifted
 As the meeing of the Alaska Game Commission was scheduled to open in Juneau today, the resolution was considered by the Senate to be of an emergency character.
 Senate Bill No II, and Senate Joint Memorial No were con- tinued in second reading until to- morrow. The Education Committee reported out Senate Bill No. 16, without recommendation, and the Judiciary Committee gave do pass to Senate Bill No. 13.

Joint Rules Adopted for 1945 Session in Joint
 Meeting Yesterday

The two chambers of the Terri torial Legislature finally got around to adopting Joint Rules of pro- cedure, yesterday, when they met together briefly at 2:15 o'clock in the afternoon. The joint rules of the 1943 session were approved to govern the 1945 session, with but three amendments
 The three amendments adopted resulted in two principal changes in the rules:
 It is now mandatory that one of the three members appointed from each house to a conference committee shall be selected from those legislators voting on the mi- nority side on the issue. 2-The fortieth day of the. ses- sion, in place of the forty-fifth day, is now the last day on which bills may be introduced in either house without suspension of rules.

16 LEGISLATORS ON ROSTER FOR
 SITkA JOURNEY
BrowneII Suggests Health Officers Be Taken on
 InvesfiQdtion

Announcement at the opening of this mornings Senate meeting that Legislators going to Sitka on the trip to Investigate the Pioneers Home would leave this evening, brought about considerable discus sion on the adviseability of the par tvs being accompanied by a health and sanitation officer.
 Senator Don Carlos Brownell brought up the suggestion with the declaration that he had heard "ru- mors" of unsatisfactory conditions, and said he thought the Senators should be informed by competent opinion if there is need for any measures to prevent the pioneers heing eaten by bugs
 President Edward D. Coffey agreed that all such rumors should be investigated and if found to have no foundation, should be .layed"
 Those who plan to make the trip are, Senators Andrew Nerland, H. H McCutcheon, O. D. Cochran, Joe Green; Representatives E. Anderson, Harry Badger Joe Diamond. Oscar Gill, Robert Hopes, Andrew Hope, Walter Huntley, Alaska Linck, AL ner Peterson, c. A. Pollard, Wallace Porter and M J. Walsh
 Wives accompanying the legisla- tors are Mrs. Amer Peterson, Mrs. M. J. Walsh, and Mrs. Robert Hoopes, who will act as Secretary to the Committee.

 AT N!GHTING
 OF PROCEDURE
Senate President Protests Usurpdtion of Com
 mitiee FunCtions

While his fellow Finance Con-
 mittee members stood back snd washed their hands of responsi- bility Senate President Edward D. Coffey this morning in the Senate stood by his guns all the way down the line in a battle over lifting the proposed 102-page Income Tax measure from committee.
 Senator Coffeys ire was reused by a suggestion by Senator Frank Gordon, sponsor of Senate Bill No. l2, that the Finance Committee be asked to report the bill out, without recommendation, in order
 that it might be placed before ! Committee of the Whole. Reason for his request he gave
 as the possibility that Alfre d
 Harsch, tax consultant who had framed the m asure, might be
 forced to return to Seattle before those Senators who are to leave for Sitka today should have re- turned
 I It is desirable, Senator Gordon
 declared, that the full Senate hear
 an explanation of the bill by Prof.
 Harsch, as it lis an involved
 measure"
 Senator Allen Shattuck, Chair
 man of the Finance Committee,
 declared his willingness to yield
 the bill, and was later joined by his committee colleagues, Senators
 Frank Whaley and Leo w. Rogge The three Senators all stated that they would prefer that Prof Harsch be called on to explain the bill rather than that they should have to answer the questions of the Senate.
 Shattuck's Views Senator Shattuck had previously stated that his committee intended to hold the bill until next week in order to give it full study over the intervening weekend. Senator O. D. Cochran was the first to rise in protest over the assumption of committee duties by the body as a whole. He held out for the benefits to be derived from orderly procedure" and declared that he did not believe himself or his fellow-Senators were in a proper position to ask questions of
 the tax expert until they had been
 afforded more time to look into the lengthy bill.
 'Who Is Harsch?" Senator Cochran asked: Who is Dr. Harsch; is he citizen of the Territory?" Does he have the right
 to come before this body with a
 bill that will effect all Alaskans? Senator Cochran also declared his belief that the Taxation Con- mittee had passed the buck" to the Finance Committee by report ing back the bill after only brief consideration.
 The Senate rules applying to re-
The Daily Alaska empire., 1945-02-08

porting by committees came in for discussion when statement by Senator Cochran was challenged by Senator N. R. Walker. Lashes Out President Coffey then took the floor to lash out verbally at what he termed, the manner in which the upper chamber has rushed inn portant measures along without consideration of proper procedure He stingingly rebuked the usurpa- ton, or in some instances, negli- gence, concerning committee func- tions.
 Throw out your Finance Com mittee do away with all your committees" he exploded, if they are not going to be allowed to perform their duties as they should
 Referring to the tax bill, he de- clared it probably the most im- portant of the entire session." and stated that he, as member of the Finance Committee, wanted to be able to familiariZe himself with its text before facing a tax expert whose purpose is to ''sell' the bill to the Territory.
 President Coffey's scathing casti- gation brought most of the Sen- ators to their feet, but a motion to adjourn, by Senator Walker, al- though it lost, quelled most pro- tests.
 The question was called for on revised motion, which will leave the bill in possession of the Finance Committee, but will lay it before Committee of the Whole Senate, with the hearing set for 2 o'clock this afternoon; when Prof. Harsch will be called to the stand.
 President Coffey was deserted by Senator Cochran, and was left with the only mo" vote at call of the roll, on both the Previous Question" and the motion.

Liquor Bill
 En,astu|ated
House Passes Measure to Get Appeals Into U. 5.
 District Court

1 A lively House session in this mornings meeting of the Legisla- ture was marked by the passing of one bill, the emasculating of another and a preview of oratory to come on the Teachers Retirement bill. Passed under suspension of rules was Rep. Stanley McCutcheon's le- gal bill Number 39, which would make it possible to appeal judgments on pleas of guilty in justice courts to the district court.
 Emasculated was Rep. Taylors and Representative Johnson's liquor license change bill, S. H. Bill 5. The bill had contained a section requir- ling City Council to demand written evidence on moral unfitness accusa- tions against denied license asplr- ants. Yesterday this matter was struck by amendment, 13 to II, but on reconsideration of vote from Rep. Bess Cross, new vote was held today with the result unchanged. In the light of other amendments, not much remains from the original bill which now comes up for third read ing on tomorrow's calendar.
 With the amendment stage battle over on the liquor license bill, Rep resentatives took up for amendment Rep. Peterson's Teachers Retire ment bill.
 Representative Mike Walsh from Nome, long member of the Terri torial Board of Education, sounded the keynote for the proponents of the new measure when he declared, This is something we owe our teachers. They get no guarantee for their old age and yet they are content to work for the common good at salaries far below those earned by waitresses who might not need more than a seventh grade education. This bill is long over due" With second reading just be- gun, the House recessed at noon un- til 3 o'clock this afternoon.
 In yesterday afternoons session, Representatives passed three legal measures to the Senate, all by Rep. Maurice Johnson, numbers H. B. 32, B and 34. The bills refer, re- spectively, to receiving of stolen property, serving of process on for eign corporations, and adjudication of estates worth less than $1 1,000.

Senate Decreases Viola lion Penaliy-Wh
 Amendment Lost

One of the so-cailed Equal Rights" measure which have been bones of contention in both houses of the .currennt Territorial Legis- lature. faded from the picture yes terday. while the issue itself moved one step nearer legislative settle ment.
 The Senate version of the pro- posed law. Senate Bill No. 4, was withdrawn by it's author, Senator O. D. Cochran, to permit the Senate to center consideration on House Bill No IA, which had al- ready been voted approval by the lower chamber. The Senate adopt ed one amendment to the House measure, lessening the penalty for violation, then moved the bill along to the final passage stage, where it was left to reappear on the regular calendar probably not until those Senators going to Sitka have made their return.
 The fireworks which have been touched off at each previous con- sideration of the Equal Rights" law, were much in evidence again at the session yesterday afternoon. The spark provided by an amend ment proposed by Senator Frank Whaley, was intended, according fo If nfnn01lf1nl1 concerned mainly. with health as poets.
 Those Senators who were lined up behind the bill in its original form, however, decried his amend ment as an attempt at hedging, v a joker" and an effort to "sabo- tage" the legislation. Senator Coch- ran took the lead in the attacks on the amendment and was well launched on spirited oration when he was brought up sharply by Senator Rogge's rising to a point of order, which was not sus- tained. Supporting Cochran's view were Senators Andy Gundersen, Don Carlos Brownell, N. R. Walker and Frank Gordon.
 The Senate was split, nine to five on the amendment when it was brought to a vote, with Sem atcrs Rogge, Tolbert Scott, Gren- old Collins and Allen Shattuck backing Whaley
 The move to lessen the penalty was proposed in an amendment by Senator Shattuck He asked that 30 days in jail, $50 fine, or both, be set instead of the three months and s250 fine called for in the bill as it passed the House. Senator Cochran oppose the Shattuck

Sen. Cochran Opposes on Ground There Is No Need
 for Law dt Present

After being put on today's calen- dar at t1Ie request of Senator N. R Walker, Senate Bill No. 8, providing for registration of lands, was ap- proved by the Territorial Senate this morning by 15 to vote.
 Only Senator o. D. Cochran spoke and voted against the bill, while Senators Don Carlos Brownell Frank Whaley and Walker entered remarks favoring it's passage
 Senator Cochran declared that he thought the provisions of the act, as amended, were not objectional, ex- cept that he saw no need for 1t at all, and that it might necessitate the expenditures of large sums of money by some land owners in order to register their properties, without adding anything to the validity Of their titles.

Sports Gambling
Probe Takes
On Wider Sweep

NEW YORK, Feb. 8. CUP)-Ex-
tension of the term of the Brooklyn
grand jury investigating alleged
corruption that has reached out
into all sports" left no doubt Satur-
day that every detail of gambling
operations in greater New York
would be probed before its sched-
uled adjournment en- March 2.
Judge Samuel S. Leibowitz of the
Kings county (Brooklyn) court ex-
tended the term of the inveStigat-
ing body with instructions that its
job was to seek out the higher
ups" in the gambling picture. Ear
lier this week five Brooklyn college
players admitted a deal to throw a
game at Boston for $4,000.
There is sound logic in such an
investigation Leibowitz said. "It
may very well lead to a central Or
ganization of corruption that has
reached out into all sports. The
grand jury can render a great pub
lie service in such an investigation. "
Meanwhile, the five players were
expelled from their college Friday
by President Harry D. Gideonse,
who said their action was clearly
a case Of conduct unbecoming a
student in the college"

Baseball Chiefs
Stumped Over
Naming of Gar

NEW YORK, FeL. {. CUP)-Ma-
jor league baseball executives, un-
able to name a new high commits
sioner because of a parliamentary
oversight, settled down Saturday
to make definite plans for full scale
operations in 1945. Practically every
owner was certain that the sport
would weather its greatest man
power crisis.
There remained a Slight hope
that the executives might be able
to get together for vote on a COM
missioner. Such a procedure would
require unanimous consent OF the
16 clubs, represented and there
were several known diSsenterS to
immediate action.
HAD HIGH HOPES
The supporters of National league
President Ford Frick had hoped to
sweep him into office on a single
ballot, but failed to bring the COM
missionershjp issue to a vote be-
cause of the legal technicality which
had been overlooked
Under the old major league agree
ment, which remains in effect until
club owners vote on new one
drafted by 10-man committee, any
topic must be submitted Is days in
advance of meeting to be given
place on the agenda.
This procedure, in effect under
the Iron rule" regime of the late
Judge Kenesaw M. Lands, report
edly has been modified in the new
agreement, but the old one remains
in effect. 1t could be circumvented
only by unanimous agreement of
the Is clubs and there are at least
four club owners vino have opposed
naming of a new commissioner until
after the war.
The delay was opposed bitterly
by the new president of the New
York Yankees, Col. Larry MacPhail,
who asked "if they don't need a
commissioner now in these troublous
times, when will they need one?"
MacPhail said ne still supported
Frick, but that If the owners were
unable to agree on him, now or at
a later meeting, he had no objec-
tions to former Postmaster General
James A. Farley.
THE commissioner must be man
in whose integrity the public has
implicit belief, and quite naturally
he should be man with deep inter-
est in and understanding of base
ball. It seems to me Farley fills all
those specifications"
Farley and former Governor John
T. Bricker of Ohio, the 1914 Repub-
lican vice presidential nominee, also
were Endorsed by Branch Hickey,
head of the Brooklyn Dodgers, who
said they had the necessary qualifi-
cations.

Slate Meetinu

BRAWLEY, Feb. 3.-Futherance
of the airplane herding of ducks in
Imperial Valley and a reception for
federal and state wildlife and game
commission men will be mapped at
a meeting of the game depreciation
committee in Ell Centre, Tuesday
evening, February 6.
According to Baxter Loveland, the
herding program has been success
full but that 81 xweeks to two months
more herding will be necessary to
carry the valley over its danger
period.
Although there are from 10000
to 100000 ducks passing through
the valley from the south each day,
the damage this year is nowhere
near that of last year." Loveland
pointed out.
He said the countrywide meeting
OF the committee Tuesday night will
be open to the public. 1t will be
held in the farm advisors office in
the court house.
The committee also will prepare
to receive Albert M. Day, assistant
director Of the u S. fish and Wild
life service, and H. H. Horn, reg
ional director. Other federal and
state game and fish commission
members are expected to arrive
February II and will spend the
balance of the week checking dep
relation in the valley.
