UPPERBODY | HAS ONLY 8 BILLS LEFT| Members of the Alaska Senate did “a right smart job” of getting their bills under the wire, into the House, before the close of the fiftieth day of the session yester- day. When the deadline finally shut off further transporting of bills from chamber to chamber, ex- cept under suspended rules, the upper section of the Legislature had only eight measures still not disposed of by Senate action. Still in the hands of Senate Committees are: Senate Joint Reso- lution No. 7, by Senator Joe Green, making an appropriation for mov- ing a building for school use, at Skagway; Senate Bill. No. 30, by Senator Howard Lyng, relating to the adop- tion of children, a Welfare De- partment measure which has been conceded as having no chance of | passage this session; Senate Bill No. 6, by Senator Leo W. Rogge, a liquor measure which is expected to be incorporated into the Liquor Control Board Bill passed by the House; Senate Bill No. 5, by Senators Grenold Collins and John Butro- vich, Jr., providing for registration of motor vehicles and covered by a House Bill as well as by the proposed, all-inclusive Motor Ve- hicle Code; Senate Bill No. 65, just recently introduced by Senator Allen Shat- tuck, to gain additional revenue from taxes on insurance premiums. The Senate is expected to pass this ' measure and it will likely be accepted by the House; Senate Bill No. 66, a minor ap- propriation measure by Senator An- drew Nerland to repay costs of the U. 8. Commissioner’s Court at Fair- banks. No difficulty is expected in getting House acceptance of the bill; and Senate Bill No. 63, voluminous Motor Vehicle Code Act, 117 pages long, introduced by Senator Green. | The Senate plans immediate action on the-measure, and it is expected 1 (gime are reported to be operating in The Chinese acknowledged its fall to the Japanese on February 3.

Charles Dennis said Mrs. Wilkins is one of four indicted for grand larceny in the case which involves the theft of a trunk containing money, jewelry and clothing from a house of ill-fame in Sitka, owned and operated by Mrs. Ruby Hazlewood.

SENATORS VOTE Lk ACCEPTANCE TO R i e R Y ] HOUSEBILLNO.99 Bars were let down this morning . in the Alaska Senate for acceptance of House Biil No. 9., which just missed getting across to the upper body before yesterday's deadline. The rules were suspended to permit Senate acceptance of the bill. The measure is a special appropriation to reimburse St. Ann's Hospital. The solons werq not, however, quite so charitable toward a bill offered by one of their own col- leagues. A new Prospectors’ Aid revision, to replace Senate Bill 60, withdrawn by Senator Frank ©ordon, was offered for introduc- tion by the same Senator. t The General Appropriations Bill, House No. 65, was reported back to the Senate by the Finance Com- | mittee, with a thick sheaf of amendments attached and is due| for floor action in second reading TONIGHT and Wednesday That Varmint Is on the Screen in'a Comedy Riot "PRIVATE SNUFFY SMITH" NORTHLAND 1ON | Serving In War.....
