MAYOR DOES G0OD WORK EN HOUSE ON
 PROPERLY TAXA1GON

Mayor Waino Hend4 ickson ap- peared twice before the House yes- terday as witness on the property tax bill
 He was recalled to the stand in the afternoon to testify as a repre- sentative of Alaska's mayors on the effect exemptions would have on the municipal tax structures.
 At the time proposed s2,50o real property exemption was still pend ,ny in the House, he told the legis- lators such a provision would cost Juneau about s35,0O0 in taxes, and that the city couldn't face that reduction without an increase in the city tax rate.
 He said a personal property ex- emption of s2,50o would not hit cities so hard. He estimated such provision would cut into Juneau revenue by about s7,5Oo, which pos sibly could be made up in some Otnef way.
 He estimated Juneau has 1,452 real property taxpayers on a yalua- ton of Sl2,175, ,o00 He estimated the total personal property on the tax rolls at $780, ,000, with about S562, 300 of it in automobile valuations. The House knocked out the S2,530 real property exemption before pass ing the bill.
 The mayor had a good eatsing average for the day. During the morning the House dropped an amendment for all the property tax money collected in cities to revert to the school board, after Hendrlck- son testified effectively against it

S90 CEILING. ON PENSIONS
 IS AT PEAK

The House approved old age pen- sicn boosts would put Alaska on a par with the top five states, Vel fare Director Russell Maynard said today, but, there were some indi- cations the Senate might cut the $90 monthly maximum set by the House.
 Maynard said the s9o top would mean average payments of about SIS monthly. He estimated the cost of such a pension schedule fer approximately 1450 recipients would be nearly S1,600,000 for the Territory, plus about $l,044,000 in Federal matching funds up to $50 monthly.
 This would be about S50O,O0o above the Departments budget re- quests for the coming biennium and twice the appropriation by the last legislature.
 The House voted B to l for the increase yesterday. The present maximum is $60
 Several House members said dur ing floor debate they believed the Senate might reduce the pension figures. Proponents of higher pen sicns argued that they would not bring an influx from the states because of higher living costs in Alaska and an unfavorable climate for o.dsters
