The disagreements were over the bill to increase liquor taxes, the bill regarding charges for work done by Territorial assay of- fices The liquor bill, which would in- |crease excise taxes on beer, wine and whiskey by 100 percent, has been kicked around, killed, recon- sidered, conferred on to beat the band | The House passed the measure without much fuss after a minor attempt to cut the taxes down somewhat failed. The Senate killed the bill by a tie vote. Then Senator Ed Coffey ked to reconsider his vote and the House refused to send the bill back. The Senate then decided to take no more action on House messages until the House sent the bill back. The House sent the measure back lon a reconsideration vote Then the Senate amended it to leave in the 100 percent increase |on beer and wine taxes, but hold- " ng the incre: (to 50 percent The House then refused to con- cur in the amendment, and last | night another conference commit- | tee had been formed to hash things over. President O. D. Cochran appoint- {ed Senators N. R. Walker, Ed Cof- fey and Stewart L. Stangroom. Speaker James V. Davis named |Reps. John J. O'Shea, Willlam !Egan and Harvey J. Smith. Another bill which has been | causing a great deal of fuss is Rep. |John J. O'Shea’s measure which | would have charged non-residents {and corporations for making assays, but continued the free service to individual Alaskan prospectors. The Senate amended it to charge the whole shebang 25 cents per | assay. The House wouldn't concur and anhother conference committée was appointed-—Reps. O'Shea, Tol- | bert Scott and Egan for the House; | Senators N. R. Walkey, Coffey and Frank Gordon for the Senate. The conference committee couldn't reach an agreement so both Chairs grant- |ed free conference powers.
