Delegates settled one issue-the
pay scale of legislators of the flu
ture state-before adjourning yes

coded final action.
Although the conventions legis-
lative committee had recommend
ed that legislators be paid an an

that paid the governor, delegates
finally resolved to let the law
makers fix their own scale.
Several attempts to limit the
duration of legislative sessions
failed. Delegates supported the

sions be kept open end" SO that
vital matters will not be neglected
due to deadline pressure.
R. E. Robertson of Juneau tried
without success to provide in the
Constitution that the legislature
meet every two years instead of
annually, as recommended by the
committee.

cradle turmoil and confuse the
public" he said. "Also due to the
fact legislatures are prone to in
crease taxes, two years would give

The convention voted that "the

fourth Monday in January each
