Also Seem Up Against It, Says Delegate WASHINGTON, Feb. 26— (By Al- | aska Delegate Dimond)—The House | and Senate conferees on the soldie | voting bill appéar to be hopeless] at odds. The Senate, as is known passed a bill to provide for a Federal | ballot which would cover only the election of President, Vice-Presi- |dent, and members of (fie House |and Senate, and also made pro- vision to facilitate use of State bal- lots . The House, on the other hand, | rejected the Federal ballot in its entirety and passed an act purport- | ;mg to aid in the use of State bal- |lots. The House bill embraces the Territories of Alaska and Hawaii. | At the time this is written (February | | 26, 1944) there is no assurance that Mm) bill will be finally enacted. Urges Legislation Several months ago I recommend- g ed the calling of a special session of | the Alaska Legislature to permit the | voung of Alaska citizens who are \ in the armed services. The Alaska ! absentee voting law requires the vot- er to be in his home precinct not |less than forty days nor more than . rl\c days before election, a condition | absolutely out of the question for | most Alaskans who are in the mili- |tary forces. So, in any event, un- Iless Alaskans who are in ithe armed forces aré to be denied any oppor- |tunity to vote, the Territorial law, !should be amended promptly. | 1 also urged upon the Governor and others that since fathers of ‘families are now drafted into mili- |tary service, the Alaska Legislature |should meet in special session to | make provision for the children of such fathers. Under Federal law, | where a father is drafted the wife | and mother will receive each month ‘550, plus $30 for the first child and | $20 for each additional child. There- | fore, a mother with two children | would receive a total of $100. The | father might also make further al- ' Jotment of his pay for the support | , vice the senior choir will hold it$|of nis family but in this connection | it should be remembered that of the $50 a month allotted for the wife, $22 comes out of the soldier's pay {and $28 is provided by the Govern- Lutheran | Fenton is at the Gastineau Hotel. |ment. l It is obviously impossible for a | mother with two children to exist on | $100 per month in Alaska, and there Regular meeting Tuesday, March |js no likelihood that Congress will | make any further provision by Fed- | eral law.
