defense lines along the Agno and Bamban Rivers.
 What few gains that were chalked up occurred in the Rosario area, where the Japanese have made such good usage of the ridge terrain. It hes been necessary to use the guns of American warships in Langayen Bay to support the One Hundred and Fifth-eighth Regimental combat team of the Forty Third Division.
 George Holster, NEG reporter, said much enemy fire against the Yank captors of Clark Field was coming from guns placed in caves, facing south toward the field. Folster spec ulated that this was additional proof that the Japanese expected Luzon to be invaded at BatangaS, south of Manila instead of Lingayen, north ! of the capital city. Thus the enemy let the Americans go by before they stuck the guns to work. ss

SENATE(UT5 SESSION OFF
 AMID DBAT7LE
Attorney General Roden Is Called io Interpret
 Powers, Legislature

Todays Territorial Senate ses- sion broke up in the middle ot caustic comment flying to and fro, mainly between Senators N. R. Walker and 0. D. Cochran, over question as to limitations placed on the powers of Alaskas Legisla- ture by the Organic Act of the Territory. Attorney-G General Henry Roden had been called into the session for his opinion regarding the validity of payments of sal aries" to members of the Commis- sion authorized by the Legislature of 1889 to investigate the fisheries of the Territory, of which he was a member.
 Senator Cochran had contended that remarks made by Senator Walker could be interpreted as "traducing" the character of the then Senator Roden, though not intended to that end Tt is only sportsmanlike that MT. Roden be asked here and afforded an op- portunity to defend himself" Sem ator Cochran, acclaimed. On his appearance, MT Roden stated that payments were made not as sal- aries but were in the nature of expenses and that the payments were thus valid This led to a request that Territorial Auditor Frank Boyle be asked before the Senate. When, however, it was determined that the Auditor had left his office for the day, the Sen- ate adjourned, without completing its calendar, until II o'clock Mon- day forenoon.
 Prelude to the embroglio was a motion by Senator Allen Shattuck that an opinion by the Attorney General as to the legality of Special and Local" appropriations be entered into the Senate Journal of the Day. The motion was passed. Senator Walker then asked for opinion on what he contended was a similar provision of the Organic Act pertaining to the payment Of extra compensation to Territorial Officers.
 Senate Memorial No. l had pre- viously been introduced by Senator Green, asking U. s. State Depart ment action to put the connecting link of the Alaska Highway tc Haines under the jurisdiction of
