House Votes for
Real Estate and
Nursing Boards
BY JIM HUTCHINSON

JUNEAU, R-The House voted
for the creation of two new terri
torial boards Friday afternoon and
to bring two new age groups I'M
der the five dollar school tax
against wage earners.
The House voted 1873 to create
a territorial real estate board and
license real estate brokers and
statesmen after arguments that
real estate was now big business
in Alaska and protection was
needed against fly-by- nighters.
The lower chamber also voted
unanimously for the creation of a
five-member nursing board to
oversee activities in both regis
tered and practical nursing fields.
The House okayed 22-1 bill
by Rep. Dorothy Prior R-An-
chorage to extend the school tax
and tighten up collections. The
original proposal doubling the tax
to $40 was dropped, however, be-
fore the measure reached the
floor.
It proposes to require payment
by virtually all civilians between
the ages of II and IS who earn
$500 yearly The present law COW
ers only the ages 21-55.
Rep. Prior estimated the new
proposal would double the terri
tory's take from the tax. Employ
ers could be held responsible for
collections and payers would be
required to attach the receipt to
their income tax returns.

Bureau of Indian Affairs Reported
Welfare to Territorial Department
(BY THE Assoc1ArED PREssi

The Senate devoted the after
noon to a hearing on public well
fare legislation and the reading of
new banking code of 81 pages,
believed to be the longest bill ever
introduced in the legislature. The
reading of the measure consumed
about three hours.
Hugh Wade, director Of the Al
aska Native Service, told the Sen
ate the Bureau of Indian Affairs
in Washington was anxious to
take the ANS. out of relief work
and turn relief work over to the
Territorial Department of Public
Welfare, which now doesn't han
die native cases.
Wade said the ANS. was will
ing to negotiate a contract with
the territory, as allowed under
the welfare revision bill by Sens
Doris Barnes R-WrangelD and
Howard Lying D-Nome).
Wade said his agency spends
about $4,000 annually on relief
among Alaska natives and that it
'would be my recommendation to
the commissioner Of Indian affairs
to turn that amount over to the
territory for the job, providing the
territory would agree that the
contribution should diminish over
period Of years.
He said there was increasing
sentiment for the states and ter
ritories to take over the response
bility for Indians and other ma
tives; that it is > getting increas-
ingly difficult to get congressional
appropriations.
He said the ANS. was also
anxious to turn over to the terri
tory any other programs, which
presumably would include native
schools, providing the territory
gives assurance it is prepared to
handle them.

Books and Papers May
Become Infectious When
Used by. Tuberculars

From "Minnesota's Everybody's Health"
The possibility of books and
papers becoming infectious after
use by tuberculous persons de-
ponds upon the extent of con-
tamination. With all but the most
ignorant and careless advanced
cases, the amount of germs de-
posted is exceedingly small and
the chance of infection remore.
Droplets that are deposited,
however, are difficult to dislodge.
Barring large amounts of pus or
sputum, the danger of infection
may be disregarded after two
days. But with a massive deposit
the time should be extended to
four or six weeks.
A completely safe way is to
sterilize by exposure Of the sur
face of the paper to- direct sun
light for an hour or two
