cepts the benefits of the Act of Congress extending to the Territory the Smith-Lever Acts applying to land grant colleges. This Federal Act would bring to the college $10,000 annually without obligating the Territory to spend a cent and would also operate to bring addi- tional funds to the college provid- ed the Legislature appropriates money to take over the work. Senator Hess explained that Dr. Bunnell, President of the College, was anxious to have both measures passed as quickly as possible, par- ticularly the latter, as all details had to be settled at once if the college is to get the $10,000 for the next fiscal year SENATE FAILS TOCONCURIN HOUSE CHANGES Rejects Amendments to Controller Bill—Blocks College Legislation The Senate yesterday afternoon by a vote ef five to three refused | to concur in the House amendments to the Steel measure for re-organi- Both Are Held Up zation of the executive branch of| The Senate majority, the Territorial government.

There is no likelihood that the House is going to be that accom- modating just now. It's move, which js the one taken in normal cases where differences arise over bills, will be to refuse to recede and sug- gest to the Senate that it appoint a committee on conference to meet with a like Committee of the House to discuss the points of divergence of opinion. Get Down to Business And when these committees have however, Senator both of them be referred to the Finance Com- mittee, a motion identical with one made by Sénator Sundquist las Wednesday. At that time it w: beaten by a four to four vote. Yes- terday, the minority secured a di- vision of the motion, voting on each measure separately. By a four to four vote, the referring of the bill accepting the 100,000 acres of land was lost, Senator Benja- min voting with Senators Dimond, Dunn and Hess to keep it on the calendar. But on the question of referring the other bill, he voted with the majority side and the bill, peen appointed then the two op-|Which carries no appropriation posing forces will be able to get whatever, was sent to the Finance 2 Committee. Last Wednesday he down to real business. What has happened so far has been more or less routine. The Senate majority had no difficulty in passing the criginal Steel measure. It wasn't even considered necessary by it to make any speeches on the sub- ject. And in the House the op- ponents of the Controller Bill mus- ter sufficient strength to have kill- ed the Steel bill entirely. It chose instead to strike out the Controller features and pass the other por- tions of the measure for the cre- ation of an audit department and the election of an auditor and treasurar, The minority in the Senate would like to concur in the House amend- ments. Senators Dunn, Dimond and Hesse voted for concurrence yesterday. They also made an effort to have the House amend- ments considered separately in or- der that those which did not deal with the controller features might be considered at once. But the majority stood solid against such a procedure and forced the matter as a whole back to the House. Effect on Legislation That other legislation will be af- fected by the situation was clearly indicated in the Senate yesterday. On the calendar for the day were two House measures in which the Agricultural College and School of Mines is interested. One pro- vides for the acceptance of 100,000 acres of land granted by Congress to that institution. The other ac- R S had voted not to take that action. Senator Sundquist then asked that the other measure be contin- ued on the calendar time to study it This was grant- ed as the minority seemed reluc- tant to force the issue and made no protest ogainst it. Delay Seems Deliberate Senator Hess charged that the tactics of the majority were design- ed to delay deliberately these meas- ures, intimating that it was the result of the House's slashing of the Controller bill He protested vig- orously against such tactics and was joined by Senator Dimond. There was no denial by any of the majority members of the charge, but President Steel retorted that the opposition had the right to act on its own convictions. Aside from the Controller the Senate's session yesterc largely routine. It considered House measures in second reading, continuing one and advancing five to the general file for final action today. bill, vas Rejects School Bill The Senate this morning by a vote of six to two voted not to concur in the amendments of the House to the Senate school refund bill, and asked the House to recede from its position. As is passed the Senate, the measure called for a straight refund of 85 per cent Front with MEN! z Band Shirts offered at 20 cents of f on every dollar only if you mention this ad.

The House put on a maximum of $40,000 and changed the refund basis to 450 pupils. House Bill No. 42, accepting for ithe Alaska College 100,000 acres |of land, held up for the past three {or four days, finally passed through lits second reading this morning. Another House measure, relative to ing airplane landing fields hydroplane moorings by the ritorial Road Commission was | considered ifi second reading. |As it passed the House it only re- quired co-operation from munici- | palities of 1,000 or more population, {calling for 25 per cent of the |funds expended from that source. {The Senate amended it to require 10 per cent from towns of between |500 and 1,000 population if such |landings should be constructed | withi none mile of the towns. | Three memorials were read for |the second time.
