The Senate voted to appropriate $150,000 for construction of an ad. l dition to the Pioneers' Home at Sit- ka and $80,000 for transportation of pupils.

Cochran of the Second Division registered an em- phatic protest against the weights and measures bill, which he said would make it “almost impossible for a merchant to comply without great expense and confusion.” Senator Henry Roden, defending the measure, Senate bill No. 25, said, “if we Senators could have just 10 percent of the amount fish- ermen in Alaska have been cheated by dishonest scales, we'd all be millionaires.” Pupil Transportation Attached to the pupil transpor- tation bill, House bill 12, when it passed today was a Senate amend- ment requiring that ten percent of tht $80,000 sum be set aside as a cash fund and not be obligated n contracts.
