Pay Day Will Come Off as Scheduled For Lawmakers

JUNEAU lR = Pay day will come off as scheduled for state lawmakers and legislative em- ployes.
 The House concurred in a Sen ate amendment which makes a supplementary legislative pay bill effective on the day it becomes law.
 The measure which appropri ates an additional S45,070 for the expenses of the current Legisla- ture. passed the House 22l7 early this week, but the Republicans refused to grant the necessary tWo-thirds majority which would make it effective upon approval by the governor.
 The Senate put the effective date clause back in the bill and when it came over to the House for concurrence today the lower chamber approved the effective date clause by voice vote.
 If the House had not acted the way it did, pay day for legisla- tors and legislative employees wouldn't have come around again until sometime around the Fourth of July.
 Senate Democrats, in passing the bill yesterday, beat back Re publican attempts to cut the ap- propriation and the bill passed on a straight party vote of 13-7.
 AS it came out of the Senate, the bill provides for an appropri- alton of $15,03O for the pay of employees and an ap- propriation of $30,040 for per diem and special allowances of 
 It also makes line item trans fers of funds totaling S8,500. The lions share of that amount, ST. 500, was transferred from legis- lators' salaries to legislators per diem.

Put on Your Easter Bonnet :.

THE CUSTOM OF WEARING new clothes on A Easter Sunday dates from the early days of Christianity, when newly baptized Christians were clothed in garments of white linen Baptism has al- ways been closely associated with Easter. Just the Resurrection represents the life of Christ baptism represents the initiation of the believer into life.
 Eventually all Christians began to dress up for joyful parade Easter.
 In Nome the winter is not over at Easter and sometimes blizzard may howl that day, but Nometes do fill their churches to capacity Easter regardless of the weather
 This year their Easter parade will be in parkas and clothes the after-church celebration will be watching the dog races.
 Everyone will have an opportunity to attend church services start early with non-denomina- tional sunrise service at the school at zoo and continue through the morning at the other churches Some will also have evening services following the races.

Will Curtail , Military Bases

WASHINGTON LR - The De fensc Department announced yes terday the closing or curtailment of activities at B military bases and installations in the United States.
 TWentv-one bases overseas also are being closed or cut back.
 Secretary of Defense Robert S. McNamara said this was the first phase of the already announced White House plan to eliminate obsolete or surplus installations among the 6,7000 bases at home and abroad.
 The estimated annual savings may eventually reach S220 mil lion. although this amount would not be saved during the several years needed to carry out the cut back program.
 The cutback will affect 15,000 civilians and military personnel in the United States and about 19.000 overseas.
 Of the 15,000 in the United States, about 5000 are civilians working at bases and 5000 are military. Overseas, about 15,000 are military and 4,000 civilians.
 McNamara told neWsmen the Defense Department will do all possible to relocate persons who lose jobs by the shutdowns.
 He said that since the cutback program will be carried out over a period ranging from 12 to 36 there should not be any sudden, sharp, critical impact" on employees.
 The announcement did not identify the 21 bases which are being closed down or cut back overseas. They will be disclosed sometime during the next two or three weeks.

A Vote of Recognition ..


NOME IS HOST TODAY to the famous dog teams l of the North and their intrepid drivers. Ever since the sport originated here fifty years ago. it has grown until dog racing has spread through the state and is popular on the East Coast.
 Teams not only drive in from around the penin- sua, but flown in from Kotzebue and Fairbanks.
 The Arctic Club should be given recognition for their efforts in furthering this Alaskan sport and making it possible for the purse to be worthwhile prize for any dog musher The merchants deserve recognition for their cooperation in financing sou venr program for the event and the Jaycees for fur nishing entertainment and novel refreshments during the dog race days.
 Our congratulations to the best team and it's musher and best wishes to the other teams for fur nishing good competition. Have fun and come again next year!

Turns Wrong Tap
 Down the River It Goes

BLADNOCH, Scotland lR - A distillery workman turned the wrong tap Wednesday and 5000 fifths of fine scotch whiskey drained off into the River Blad- noch.
 The loss stunned the villagers but the salmon and trout down. stream were reported to be in- toxicatingly gay.
 Robert Cassie, manager of the distillery, sadly told a reporter:
 ''1t is a sorry tale, horrible mistake, by one of our own work men. l would not dream of dis closing his name. He has suffered enough already.
 The whisky made at Bladnoch is, like most of the output in these parts, used in various blends that are placed on sale under we'll known brand names.
 The distillery declined to say what brands contain the delight full dew of Bladnoch, now cours- ing down to the ocean, no doubt to the delight of waiting herring.
