were paid" services. The financial
askings for the present goal will be
used primarily for equipment and

small loans to the point that /
would be hardship on the smalle
businessman. Banker Marshal
Crutcher told the House that tn,
maximum rate provided in the bill
is lower than that charged by mos
finance companies in the States
Interest rates in Alaska should be
little higher than in the States
Treasurer Henry Roden said.
Foolish Bill
This is a foolish BILL" said Ro-
den of H. B. ITO. providing an ex-
tension of the time required for
filing renewal notices of chattel
mortgages. IF you are going to
change the law every time the Legis-
ature meets, pretty soon nobody
will know what the law is" he
ldded.
Rep Stepovich contended that
he bill would benefit people who
make chattel mortgage loans and
.uoted the provisions of the laws OF
ither states, most of which allow
more than a year for renewal
The bill. which originally passed
he House 22-0, got only IL votes for
passage over the veto.
The House yesterday approved a
$233.000 deficiency appropriation
most of which will go to pay hair
seal bounties. The House tackled
onto the bill provision that Ter
itorial warrants not presented for
payment by the end of the bien-
mum next after the biennium dur
ing which they are drawn will be
void.
The House approved by a 1910
vote Senate bill appropriating
10000 for control of marine pred
ators by the Department of Fish
cries. 1t also approved bill provid-
ing funds for assistance to commun-
ity hospitals but cut the amount
from 100000 to $50.000.
Other Senate bills approved by
the House provide for purchase of
equipment to microfilm vital sta
tistics records and other records of
the Territory; provide for reimburs-
ing hospitals for care of indigents.
Tobacco Tax Up
The first major revenue measure
of the session, the Senate bill in
creasing the tax on cigarettes from
three to five cents a package was
approved by the House last night
on 1875 vote.
The House also passed Senate
joint memorials seeking an airport
at Wasilla, road from Nome to
the Solomon River, increased min
ing development in the Second Di-
vision, road from Pittman to Will
low Creek Station, road from
Nome to the Kougarak and more
space and facilities in the Federal
and Territorial building at Juneau
for the use of the Legislature.

two to three times as high as the
levy on salmon processed by freez-
ing, sailing or ether method.
Apparent Leak
Quoting figures from the Pacific
Fishermen Yearbook and from the
report of the Tax Commissioner,
Gilmore showed that apparently
some 100000 pounds of salmon and
100000 pounds of halibut produc-
ed in Alaska in 1949 and processed
by freezing or sailing went I'M
taxed.
Il do not intend this as criticism
of Tax Commissioner Mullaney or
his office" Gilmore said THE Tax
Commissioner has a colossal task
to perform. But we pay our taxes
and we expect other people to do
likewise"
In answer to d question, Gilmore
said he had no idea where the leak"
might be.
He said he believes anticipated
revenues from the canned salmon
tax for the coming biennium are
far too low, since they are based
on 1941-1950 returns, which were
far below the 10-year average pack.
The 1850 pack was the smallest
since 1921. he said, but the 1851
pack is expected to be near or above
the 10-year average.
Competitive Item
Asked about the possible effect OF
increases on the price of canned
salmon in competitive market,
Gilmore said that tuna fish, with a
greatly increased production in re-
cent years, is in direct competition
with salmon on the grocery shelves.
THE more you increase the fixed
costs of production, such as taxes,
Transportation and manufacturing
expense, the less you have to dis
tribute to the wage-earner and the
fisherman Gilmore said. "At this
momert we do not know what the
office of Price Sterilization is 60
ing to do, but we expect that they
will fix our selling price and the
price we can pay for salmon"
The bill was held over until z
pm so that Tax Commissioner
Mullaney can be heard.

which have stirred the most con-
troyersy were eliminated in the SEN
ate, 1t appeared certain to pass the
Senate
The Senate adopted a long list
OF amendments proposed by Treas
urer Henry Roden.
One, agreed to by Roden after a
suggestion by Sen. James Nolan
(D-WrangelD would eliminate COM
pletely controversial section about
the proposed director of finance be-
ing directly responsible to the Gov
ernor. That has been one of the
main targets of criticism
Roden said the bill in general
resembled one he had considered
drawing himself before the Legis-
lature met.
Nobody can accuse me of carry
ing the torch for the Governor. but
he is being blamed for a good many
things he shouldn't be in connection
with this BILL" Roden said. IT can
say definitely the Governor has at
no time wanted to be on the Board
of administration"
Gruening would continue on 1t
under the Reorganization Bill.
The makeup of the board was
voted as follows by the Senate, on
Roden's recommendation The Gov
ernor, the tax commissioner, the at
torney general and two members
from each House of the Legislature
to be elected
who has final authority under
these proposals." asked President
Engebreth.
'The board does" Roden replied.
What if they can't get along?"
ut would be just the same as
now" Roden responded. often we
have disagreements now, with all
of us but the governor saying no."
Roden insisted the reorganization

generally conforms to numerous

asked. ~
This plan isn't new Roden re-
Piled 1T just consolidates the func-
tons. You legislators represent the
people. What are you here for if
you don't do that?"
Sen. Ed Anderson of JJome coma
mented:
But we don't know what the bill
contains. We don't know what's
hidden in it. 1 think we should have
referendum on it." -
Roden's response was to hold up
the 30-odd page bill and ask: How !
many voters do you think would
read that through"
The Senate received report from
a free conference committee on the
40-hour week bill, saying the group
is 'hopelessly deadlocked" in DELHI
erations with a House committee.
The report said there are "six men,
beers, and six different opinions"
McCutcheon Rebuked
The Senate marked time this
morning because of senator's abb

ganization bill was scheduled to
