ALASKA LEGISLATURE CHURNING THROUGH BILLS; BIG FIGHTS" TO COME
By Jim Hutcheson

JUNEAU -tR- A.aska's chosen forty" started churning through a record number of biIls yesterday but there still awaited wrestling matches with really major bills on which they must act or leave to die Inn in the remaining 33 days.
 The House passed elght bills and the Senate three yesterday but none was warm enough to start even a faint smoke in the Govern ors office
 The first fire in ex-Forester Heintzleman's quarters is likeiy to come this weekend when his sigma ture or veto is due on the Demo- crats bill which would shift board appointive power from the Govern or to the legislature in deadlocks. The odds are still 50-50 on how the Governor may handle that hot potato.
 Meanwhile. committees in both houses are wrestling with the major problems of trimming a few mil lion off .the budget and revising the Employment Security law.
 Labor's ESC bill is in the House whiie the Senate has a version to tighten up benefit payments like an old Dawson City corset. The ES bills are farther apart than the Senate and House chambers and some concern is being expressed privately over whether any con- promise can ever be reached or whether the near-defunct ESC fund might be left to a lingering death.
 Most of the storm and fury of the session has centered in the House which, as usual, is the most unpredictable chamber and most of the controversy has been over com paratively minor lawyers bills. The House reversed an earlier vote. Thursday. and approved an enabl- ing act to allow cities to increase sales tax to per cent Earlier, the House was embroiled in warm argument over a bill to outlaw opened liquor bottles in cars. Itl finally threw out both bottle and bill.
 The Legis ative Investigating bobbed back twice as house Democrats introduced a bill the committee and shifting it's duties to the Legisla- tive Council. Rep. Vern Metcalfe today introduced a bill to renew
 ne investigating committee under a new name.
 Everpresent memorials remained in the field of universal agreement. A memorial by Senators Barnes and Nolan asking Congress to pro- vide title for a Wrangell sawmill site whizzed through both houses in record time the same day it was introduced Both houses also a memorial asking for transfer of control of the Alaska fisheries to the Territorial Depart ment of Fisheries and taking a sharp cut at Director Farley of the [. s. Fish and Wildlife Service.
