Approval was by a 64-to-40

48 Alaska National Guard ArmOries To Be Built In Remote Northern Villages

As an added, incidental benefit the ar1nories will also provide heated meeting place for the var ious villages - many of which haven't such facilities now. The villages will also benefit from the fact that the call for bids will specify that native help is to be employed in erecting the various armories.
 Each of the armories will be 2O- by 60-foot pre-fabricated building, complete with it's own fuel oil heating plant and electric light plant. Most of the AS build ings in the program will be con- structed this year. Preliminary surveys by the Army Engineers were completed in December and more detailed surveys are now underway.
 One of the ar1nories will go in on Little Diomede Island. Another is scheduled for Barter Island in the Arctic Ocean off the far north east coast of Alaska. Others are planned for such Widely-scattered communities as Fort Yukon, Dill lingham, Hooper Bay, Unalakleet, White Mountain, Mountain Vil- lage, Samson Bay, St. Michaels, Kotzebue, King Island, Teller and Teller Mission, Wales, Stebbins, Shishmaref, Deering, Kivalina, Point Hope, Wainwright, Selawik, Shungnak, Kiana, Noorvik and Noatak;

Forty-eight Eskimo and Indian villages scattered throughout the vast land area of northern Alaska are scheduled to get new armory buildings under an Alaska Ma tional Guard program starting this spring.
 Plans and specifications for the prefabricated armory buildings are being completed by the U. S. Army Engineer District, Alaska, and call for competitive bids is scheduled in March. More than a million dollars of federally-appro- priated funds for the Alaska Ma tional Guard will be used to build the armories.
 The armories will be built to provide training stations for the famous First and Second Scout Battalions of the National Guard.

Governor Pay Measure Splits House Sen. Vote

JUNEAU, LR - Major action in Alaska's Legislature Fri d a y centered around payment and power of the Governors office.
 A split developed when the House rejected Senate amend ments to a bill providing salaries for the Governor and Secretary of State. The Senate then refused to rescind it's amendments.
 Crux of the matter lies in the Senate vote to boost the House. approved $24,OOO salary for the Governor to $25,OOO, and the Sen ate would also increase the Sec retary's pay from $17,50O to $2O,O0O.
 Underlying the issue is the ques- tion of salaries for all state off cials. Many legislators feel the Governors salary should provide a gauge for setting other. pay scales. Some lawmakers feel top judges for the yet to be established judicial system should receive about $25,000 annually and that the Governor should not be paid less.
 Voting to rescind the Senate amendments were senators Frank Peratrovich, James Nolan, John Coghill and Al Owen. Owen, chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, had tried unsuccess- fully to lower the Governors sal ary to $24,0OO.
 After Fridays action there was some speculation the Governors pay scale may be increased and the Secretary's dropped some what. The free conference commit tee can completely reWrite the bill but it's recommendations must be either accepted or rejected in full by the two houses.
 Power of the Governors office was increased last week when the House approved a Senate bill set ting uniform terms of office for all officers of the state government and it includes those still serving elected terms carried over from the old Territorial government
 The bill, requested by the Gov ernor's office, clears the way for the removal of Attorney General J. Gerald Williams who refused to resign before serving out the two years of his elected term. Will Hams could not be removed until passage of a uniform tenure act.
 The bill would also give the Governor additional power over state boards and commissions. Pre- viously these have operated inde- pendently of the chief executive.
