Ateis ruduo, inns geles vysti,
Gal tu bijosi mano zodziQ Wis.
Ateitum tu per lauka rugiageliu,
Ateitum su sauleliaidziais sviesiais.
Ateitum tyliai, lydima seseliu,

U N E A U, IA') - The heavily trimmed general appropriations bill reaches the House floor today. Nearly S3,OOO,OOO has been Topped from budget board requests.
 The sharpest cut by the ways and means committee is on the University of Alaska appropria ton, although it still is listed fo- three times what it received duJA ing the present biennium. The university's budget request of $3,500, ,000 was pared to $2,055,- 900. Most of the trimming was done on new construction, which was marked down for S900,000 in- stead of the nearly $2.000, 900 re- quested. Nearly half million was pared from other university itefas. The budget for the support of common schools was left virtually intact at S4,g35 ,00o. A sharp GU, trimmed the controversial Alaska Development board request from $380 900 to f$l50, ,oo0. And even that figure was expected to draw heated Republican Senate opposi- ton. Some ways and means com ! mittee members favored cutting it to S1o0,000.
 l The public welfare and labor
 departments also felt the knife.
 Aid to dependent children was cut
 from $750,OO0 to $45o,O00, Ind

 Earlier the House voted 2l-2 in favor of a bill to loan $1,200,000 to the veterans revolving fund at the rate of $50,000 monthly. Re- payments would be at the same rate, starting in 1856. In the Senate, approval was given to a House bill which would shift city elections from April to October, and also provides that by popular referendum cities can change mayors terms from one year to two or three. The vote was 14-2.
 Another measure already passed by the House enabling cities to en- act sales taxes if they desire was given the Senate ok, 9-7. Both bills now go to the Governor.
 The Senate sent bill taxing cigarettes cents a pack and other tobaccos proportionately back to the House for action on a minor amendment
 The House voted 21-2 last night to give fishing boat owners special constellation under the new gen. eral property tax by allowing an alternative of paying $4 per ton instead of 1OVmills on valuation.
 Estimates given on the floor were that the provision might mean nothing to some boats, but would cut the tax on some large new ones to a quarter or third of what otherwise it would be.
 Debate mostly ranged legisla- tors from mining regions against those from the Southeastern Alas ka fishing areas.
 The House passed by big ma jorities bills by Rep. Clarence T. Heating providing for recall petir tions for municipal officers an& removal of all elective Territorial officials by legislative impeach- ment trial.
 Governor Gruening meanwhile announced signing into law bill raising old age pensions to $80 per month.

It might be good idea in connection with discus sions about the proposed North Atlantic Security Pact to understand that its prime purpose is not to prepare for with Russia but deter Russia from aggression and thus prevent war
 The idea is general in Western Europe that the Rus sians will not attack the countries of Western Europe if Moscow knows that the United States will immedi- aely in the side of the nations attacked If this is made abundanty clear to the Russian leaders the ing.
