Enactment of this bill will mean that fines collected for failure to | pay licepse taxes which, if paid,| would have been credited to the cities and towns in which they or- iginated, will be paid over to the municipalities just as the fines would have been. Example of the pressing need for such legislation occurred last year when the court assessed a fine against a Wrangell salmon packing company in the! amount of unpnid taxes more than $6,000. Under existing law the fine was credited to a court fund instead of to the town of Wrangell as the taxes would have been. The Delegate has a special bill pending in Col uthor- The bill just introduced is to meet such situations as may occur in the { future without the need of special | 1egislation. Old Case Revived The second bill introdced by the Delegate on the opening day of the session is one to authorize the Gov- erfment to pay $300 to the heirs of the late Edward Mather for his services as Native policeman at Douglas during the period from No- vember 5, 1889, to November 4, 1890 On the following day, January 4, Mr. Dimond introduced a bill to authorize the reimbursement of Ver- non Hilliker and William Torgram- sen,- both of Anchorage, for losses incurred when the land on which they were working under a timber cutting permit was withdrawn as a military reservation and their per- mit canceled.

REFUNDING OF BONDS The bill to authorize Alaska cities and towns to refund outstanding bonds for the purpose of obtaining | lower interest rates, which Delegate Dimond introduced in Congress last year and which passed the House on July 28, 1939, was approved by the Senate January 8 and is now awaiting final actlon at the White House. -oo TO BUY BLANKETS Marshal William T.
