D. Cochran of Nome who voted on the short end of the five- passed the Walker cocktail measure last week. Cochran’s measure, Senate bill No. 32, makes it unlawful to sell liquor on any general, special or primary election day until after the polls have closed. Another section of the bill is in direct conflict with the Walker mea- sure and its enactment no doubt would throw the matter into the courts. The provision is “nor shall such licensee permit the drinking of hard or distilled liquors by any person upon the premises covered by his license.” The Walker bill, now before the House, expressly permits selling of | hard liquor by the drink. 1 First Cochran Bill The Cochran bill, incidently, is the first piece of legislation introduced by the Second Division Senator. All other Senators have bills pending. | Senator James Patterson of Vel- dez introduced today Senate joint memorial No. 4, which urges Con- gress to enact Delegate Anthony J.1 Dimond’s bill to extend provisions | of the Federal highway act to Al- aska, Senator Patterson also is author | of another measure introduced to-| day as a substitute for Senate joint | memorial No. 2, after that had been | withdrawn.
