COMMITTEE T0 INSPECT HOME N SHORT TIME Legislators Making Plans for Biennial Visit to Pioneers’ Home Plans for the biennial inspection of the Pioneers’ Home at Sitka by s joint legislative committee arel now being formulated The first step toward this was taken yester- day when the Senate passed a resolution authorizing five of the members to make the trip Just how many members of the House will be on the committee was not known. Many Representa- tives are desirous of making the trip and it is probable an even larger number of them will go than from the Sencte. The trip, it was said, will be made on the patrol boat Seal of the Alaska Game Com- mission sometime in the near fu- ture. Resolution Passed The Senate yesterday passed a 1esolution containing a vote of thanks to Dr. L. E. Benson for his services to smallpox stricken com- munities on Seward Peninsula last winter. It also authorized Gov. Parks to pay him for his services at the current rate for similar pro- fessional work. *Two new measures were intro- duced in the Senate Monday. One by Senator Frame provides for a ship subsidy on Cook Inlet waters and carries an appropriation of $10,200. It provides for a boat at least 60 feet long, making eight miles per hours, and having a ca- pacity of at least 40 tons. Senator | Dunn introduced a bill carrying( $15,000 for making waterway im- provements on the Yukon-Kusko- kwim portage. It is similar to a measure introduced last week in the House by Representative Don- | nelley. Four House Bills Four new bills were introduced in the House Monday. Mr McCor- mack presented a measure provid- ing for the escheatment of prop- erty of defunct fraternal or bene- ficial organization; one by Mr. Lomen provides for Territorial pre-| catory animal control; another by Mr. Burgh calls for the rehabilita- tion, repair and maintenance of telephone lines on Seward Penin- sula and carries an appropriation for $5,000; and the fourth by Mr. Winn asks for $7,500 for flood pro- tection for the town of Hyder. Speaker Rothenburg yesterday re- 1ninded the House that the session was one-fourth completed and many bills were in committee which had overstayed their limit there. He suggested the advisability of get- ting them back to the floor in order that they could be disposed of without further delay Will Visit Mine Mr. Nylen, Chairman of the| Mines Committee, informed the | Housc that arrangements had been made with General Superintendent L. H. Metzgar to visit the Alaska | Juneau mill and mine next Thurs- day. Members desiring to make the trip are asked to meet at the mine office at 9 a. m. prepared for wet going, wearing overalls and 1ubber boots. & PUEE T'E MAKE ENLARGEMENTS Alaska Scenic Views adv.
