COCHRAN HITS UNEMPLOYMEN COMPENSMION Vicious and Unconsfitu- tional, Declares Senator -Bill in Suspense The principle of unemployment compensation was damned in the | Alaska Senate today as vicious and Imul&( by Df*m()(ld(ll Senator O. D. | Cochran of Nome. | The bill which Cochran attacked, one by Rep. Harvey Smith extending junemployment comper ion re- quirements to all emplc s of one |or more persons, was defeated a few moments later by a vote of four to four, though this afternoon the | bill was revived by the very unusual | action of rescinding the earlier ac- | tlon on the bill Cochran declared that under the principle of “so-called unemploy- ment compensation,” an employer “without moral or legal obligation” | has to pay to support other persons, whether they are his former em- ployees or not. Disagree with Supreme Court “What due process of law,” Coch- ran shouted, {man and give it to someone clse” The principle of unemployment compensation, Cochran said, is “vic- | ious and wrong, decisions of the: United States Supreme Court not- | withstanding.” ’I’lnt may be the spirit of the times,” Cochran said, “but it’s un- | reasonable. We're not living yet in a Nazi country. We're living in a country th:n recognizes the rights of | property.” Efforts of Senator Norman R. Walker to amend the bill by making | it apply to employers of four or |more persons were defeated by four- |to-four as was a motion to amend it to read three or more. A five-to- three vote defeated an amendment by Senator Lerqy Sullivan to strike the whole section dealing' with the law’s application. Then the bill was advanced to final passage under suspension of the rules and defeated four-to-four, with Senators Cochran, Sullivan, nd aBoyteaux voting | against. Actien Rescinded At the beginning of the after-| noon session, Senator Edward Cof- fey moved to rescind the action| of the Senate with relation to| House Bill No. 2. President Henry | Roden, remarking that the proce- ‘(]m(' was unusual, entertained thc{ wmtmnn anyway, and it passed five-| | to-three, with Walker leaving the others who had killed the bill in‘ | the morning. By a vote of seven to one the bill was continued in second read-| ing until tomorrow, The Senate amended Rep. Almer | J. Peterson’s bill pertaining to the Jjudgment creditor’s exemption from attachment, by adopting a Coch-| ran proposal to make a married man’s entire earnings of the pre- vious month exempt.

Citizens Gov. Ernest Gruening today sign- ed the bill raising the excise tax on hard liquor from 50 cents to $1 per gallon. The original bill, calling for a tax of $1.50 was written by Reps Harvey Smith and Almer Peterson ot Anchorage. The $1 tax will apply to all liquor of more than 19 per cent alcoholic content. The tax remains five cents per gallon on malt beverages and 15 cents on wine up to 19 per cent. Other new laws signed by the Gov- ernor provide for paying Frank J. Wadman $73.05 escheated from a bank account and reimbursing At- torney General James S. Truitt $34.- 17 for extra clerical help. The bill requiring that anyone ob- taining a license to practice medi- cine in Alaska must be a citizen was also _signed by the Governor. .- ELKS’ CABARET HELD SATURDAY The annual Elks’ cabaret dance was held Saturday night at the Elks’ ballroom and was attended by mem- bers only, with Legislators asked as special guests of the lodge.

The Army men have been on a several days flying inspection trip o Hairbanks and Nome, where they nade routine inspections of National Guard units.

When th House's ticn came before the Sena afternoon, Senator Nor- (Dce) Walker, Ketchiken pharmacist, corrected “barituric” to ‘barbituric” and *“diethyl-barituric” to “diethyl-barbituric.” prescr Saturday man R. Senater Hjalmar Nordile re- members the ddy Donald Mac- Denald first broached the plan for a highway from the States to Alaska. Apparently MacDon- ald picked the idea “out of the blue,” says Nordale, who has been a clcse personal friend of the highway booster for 20 years. Ncerdale was editor of the Fair- banks News-Miner at the time and MacDcnald, who was an old police reporter, made the office his hangout. The Senate has amended, with the author's approval, Senator Walk bill to allow certain High Schools to teach Junior College grades. imendment restricts such insiruc- tion to vocational education. During discussion of Mrs. Jenne's »ill for a home for women, Rep. Jim Davis asked Rep. Frank Gordon whether he’d ever tried to keep 5 wemen on a mere $30,000. Gordon -eplied: “Yes, T've kept thousands. That's my busineys.” He has a wo- mens apparel shop. The Senate Labor Committee has ~scommended against passage of Rep. Harvey Smith’s bill to put vir- tually everybody under the unem- ployment compensation law. The bill would reduce from 20 to five the ‘lumber of weeks A year a person would have to work to be included, nd would require payments by em- ployers of one or more persons, in- stead of eight or more as at present. Ancther of those paradoxes of Alaska' legislation: The in- come tax bill was Killed by Senaters from the Divisions which weuld have paid the least under its provisions, while it was cupperted by Senators from the «ecticns of Alaska which would ®have paid the biggest part of the bill. Everybody north and west of Anchorage voted against the bill and everybody south and ecast of Seward against it. After the heat-engendered by the | inal fight on the income tax bill, for the rest of the afternoon Senator Walker objected to all of Senator Cochran’s requests for unagimous roll calls. “Probably I shouldn’t say thi% but | I'm going to say it anyway,” Rep.| Allen Shattuck prefaced a state-| ment in the House Saturday after- noon that he was sure all the lay members of the House had a perfect inderstanding. of the provisions of ‘he Department of Health bill and the reason Rep. Almer Peterson couldn’t understand it was because he is a lawyer. Peterson had called it a “cumber- | ome, mysterious bill” and had de-| fied “any Philadelphia lawyer to| determine under this bill whether he’s in jail or out of jail.” The Department of Health hill hearing in the House drew & much larger gallery wian ice in- finitely more dramatic Senate fight on the income tax bill, which tcok place at the same time. Both were good shows, however. Senator Don Carlos Brownell had prepared, but wasn't able to propese, amendments to the in- ccme tax bill. It would have made its provisions milder. For in- stance, he would have based the tax on “clear net income” after federal taxes had been paid, would have reduced the tax on perscnal net income so that it did not go over four per cent at the maximum, would bave given a credit of $30 instead of $20 for single persons and $50 instead ‘of $40 for married and Would have granted extra cred- its for those who built homes or factories or performed farm imprevement labor, etc. Sometime between 11:30 and 1:45 celock Saturday, Senator C. H. (Alabam) LaBoyteax changed his mifid about the income tax bill, and thereby made history. At the morn- ing session, when Senator Coffey moved to advance the bill out of its regular order on the calendar for iimmediate consideration, Alabam session he voted “yes” on a similar motion and the bill went on to de- feat. e Miss Atkins Hostess inary work for the season’s activi- ties. | e | WHITTMEYER RETURNING Merle H.

How It Happened Here is a, play-by-play account of exactly how the income tax bill met death: When the Senate met at 1:45 o'clock and after it had disposed of a bill which was being consid-~ ered at the time of recess, Senator Coffey moved as follows: “That Senate Bill No, 10 be taken out of its regular order on the calendar, the first reading be deemed the second reading, it be ieemed* engrossed, it be read the third time and placed on fina) passage.” Senator Walker, arguing against the motion, said he had before him everal pages of amendments by Senator Brownell of Anchorage and himself that he would like to sub- mit in second reading, saying he believed these amendments would remove some of the objections of opponents of the bill, On roll call on Coffey’s motion, with only Brownell having voted “no,” Walker, who is near the end of the roll call order, voted “yes.” President Roden voted “no,” and Walker, having voted with the pre- vailing side, gave notice of mov‘ng to reconsider his vote, Almost Went Over Roden ruled the motion for re- consideration would come up Mon- day as provided by the rules and that “everything would be held n abeyance until then.” This ruling was questioned by Senators Coffey and Cochran, who, however, did asked by Roden if they wished to do so. Coffey then moved the rules be suspended, so that notice of re- consideration could be considered | immediately. The vote was five for| Coffey’s motion to three against, and Roden declared the motion was lost for lack of a two-thirds votu‘ Those voting against were Brown-| ell, Walker and Roden. Coffey again questioned the| President’s ruling, contending onl.‘ a majority vote was required, but| he was convinced by Roden andv other members of the Senate that| - I'the rules had to be suspended for| such a motion and that sufficient| strength had not been mustered to| suspend the rules. Rules Quoted Senator Sullivan then read from! Robert’s Rules of Order, which he! described as after all, the final| authority, that a member cannot| reconsider on a motion to suspend | | the rules on the order of business.| At first Roden rejected this con- tention, but on a point of order raised by Sullivan, changed his the vote in question was not a final vote, as referred to in the Senate rules, and therefore the motion to reconsider at the time was in order. From this ruling of the chair Walker appealed, but the only mem- ber on roll call to vote against the chair’s ruling was Walker himself, though Roden jocularly declared aa. last man on the roll call, “I vote| with Senator Walker.” Asking if the motion was debat- able and being assured it was, Walker then observed “the oppon- ents of this bill feel they certainly have the strength to defeat it,| and theyre not even willing to consider amendments, which would correct the bill and remove some of the objections to it. Called “Discourteous” “This jis entirely a motoin to de- stroy the real effect such a biil might have. The opponents of the bill have not even the courage to say this bill can even be fixed up. It is certainly something which has never happened before in the 12 years I have served in the Sen- ate, The motion of Senator Coffey is certainly a discourteous motion.” Walker then declared: “Senator Coffey’s motfon 1is for the sole purpose of defeating the bill be- cause he knows he has the strength to defeat ‘it. I challenge him to say there is any other purpose he could have.” Coffey then said he wished to point out to Walker that the ac- tion was not unprecedented. Two years ago, he said, this Senate vot- ed on the Ickes eight percent gold tax without Senators even having a copy of the bill before them. To this, Walker said Coffey was in error and that he (Walker) at least had the bill before him. Ro- him at the time also, Shame, Says Brownell Brownell, prefacing hils remarks by saying there probably wasn't much to be said under the circum- stances, said he wanted to support Walker. | “This is a shame to handle this bill in this way,” he said. “This bill has taken a long time to pre- pare. There is much in it of value. ‘There could be a lot learned from lar measure will still be introduced | about 15 pages of amendments by,a fact that a large proportion of not appeal from the ruling when| OF FIVE-THREE up. It’s—I was going to say ‘child- {ish,’ but that’s hardly the word for it. It's an absolute shame to hury the bill in this manner.” Cochran arose to say: “I don't| believe there is any frameup such as Senator Brownell indicates there is. If there is such a frameup, I don't know about it. For myself, I am prepared to vote on this bill |at this time. I venture to say Sen- ator Walker doesn’t know any more about this bill or even about his amendments than I do. This in- crimination and recrimination is entirely out of order.” Roden Critical President Roden then asked per- mission to make a statement. He stood at his desk on the rostrum and said: “Gentlemen, I do believe the bill is entitled to more considera-| tion than it has been given. It is | the people of this Territory are for . this bill or something similar. It is also certain a large proportion are against this bill and all it stands for, but all of our people are vital- !ly and deeply interested in this bill. It is a matter of common cour- tesy, I would Say, for us to give| the bill consideration on the floor of the Senate.”, Brownell then asked Cochran if he had read over all the amend- ments Brownell proposed. Coch- ran said he had, and Brownell re- plied he believed it a physical im- possibility for anyone to read and understand the proposed amend- ments in the few minutes they had been on Cochran’s desk. Cochran said he knew what they were and had, as a matter of fact, heard| most of them exactly a week ago.| Walker then lifted a sheaf of| typewritten amendments from his| desk and asked Cochran if he had| THE WEATHER (By the U. 8.
