pretty well" Only a simple ma jority is required to pass the meas ure once the initiative is placed on the ballot
 There has been some conjec- ture as to whether the reference in the State Constitution naming Juneau as the capitol would make such an initiative unconstitutional
 'We considered this reference was merely intended during the transitional period from terri torial status to statehood" Hill strand said. 'We therefore see no need to amend the constitution. :"
 Amendments to the state consti- tuition can be effected only by a two-t thirds vote of both the House and the Senate, or by a constitu- tional convention ordered by the Legislature.
 Comprising tn e committee which seeks to relocate the state capitol are Hillstrand, Art Wal dron, George Janfson, Wendell Kay, William Stokey, Eugene Saxton, James Fisher, Austin Si- monds and Ken Hinchey, all of Anchorage.

Steering Committee Applies to Wade For Vote on Moving Alaskan Capitol

ANCHORAGE, R - The cap itol Site Steering Committee plans to submit to the Secretary of State in Juneau early next week an application seeking the issuance of petitions calling for an initiative measure.
 The measure would direct that the state capitol be relocated in the Cook Inlet-railbelt area" according to State Representative Earl Hillstrand, chairman of the committee.
 Although only 100 names are required on the application, Hill strand has indicated that more than that number will be affixed. The applications have been sent to several areas of western Alas ka, Hillstrand said.
 Upon approval of the Secretary of State, petitions are issued for placing the measure on the ballot at the next general election. Ten per cent of the voters in tWo- thirds of the 24 election districts must sign the petition before the measure would be placed on the ballot for a vote next November.
 The application asks that the capitol be relocated. that a five man committee to determine the exact location of the capitol be appointed by the Governor, and that, upon approval of the meas ure, the Deartment of Administra- tion effect the physical transfer. The transfer of the capitol is sought for 1865
 "The best way 10 settle differ ences between the people is to put the matter to vote," Hillstfand said. "We've been getting along under this Democratic principle

Hawaii Steals Show At Demo. Fete to Honor New States

SAN FRANCISCO, R ILL Sen ator Bob Bartlett toasted Cali fornia's Governor Edmund G. Brown Friday night at a $100-a- plate Democratic salute to Alaska and Hawaii.
 Bartlett and Representative Dan iel Inouye D-HaWaD were the featured speakers at a dinner at tended by 800 leading Democrats. The salute to the 49th and 50th States turned into a series of pitches for Brown.
 And each time a speaker i'm piled that California's Governor was headed for national office, the California audience applauded with gusto.
 Bartlett said that contrary to Republican intimations, the Dem ocrats in Congress hve been fighting to reduce the national debt
 For every once in a while" said Bartlett, 'the Congress re- ceives a request from the Admin istration " the businesslike, sav- ing and efficient Eisenhower Ad- ministration to lift the debt ceiling.
 The grayhaired Bartlett, former gold miner, had only one complaint with his lei-bedecked audience.
 "As I look round tonight" he said "I see plenty of evidence of Hawaiian influence - but noth- ing from Alaska.
 "If I'd have known this was to be the situation, I'd have brought something from Alaska . glittering array of furs and gold nuggets"
 The crowd roared sand seemed willing to meet again, real soon, if Bartlett meant what he said.
 Representative Inouye, who lost his right arm in combat, told of the 5Oth State and it's military record.
 "On March 12, 1859, the whole world learned that the United States practices what it breaches"
 We hadn't even been discov- cred during the revolutionary war;" he said, land we were kingdom during the Civil War.
 "In World War I, we contrib uted but a token force. But in World War II, Hawaii, per capita, had more casualties than any state, city or town in the United States.
 We had no deserters, no trai- tors and no turncoats.
 Most of our AWOL troops were men who left hospitals to. return to front lines - a most unusual thing.
 "Only IS sons of Hawaii were captured in World War II. Some how" Inouye said, linen of Ha waii refuse to be captured"
 The solidly-built dark-haired Congressman declared that in Ha- waii i've have problems, but we're happy.
 "We feel we have something to contribute to the United States - the spirit of understanding and aloha !"
