Ernest Gruening today stat- ed that in his interpretation of the| 1945 sossion law creating the Au-; thority, Mrs. Louise Weaver Miller of Ketchikan has been duly con- | firmed as successor to herself as| Commissioner of the Alaska Hous- Authority. | | The Governor declared, even lthough a majority of the Senate! !vcted to reject the nomination of Mrs. Miller, the House in its sep- arate action voted 23 to 0 in favor, jof her confirmation, making the total vote of the two chambers 30| votes for confirmation, nine again- st The Housing Authority Act, Gov. Gruening quoted, specifies that “The Governor of the Territory shall ap-| point five persons as Commission- “ers of the Authority, subject to ap- proval by the Legislature.” Gov. Gruening has construed the total result of the separate actions of the House and Senate as approv- al of Mrs. Miller's nomination. The situation regarding M. P. Mullaney, confirmation of whom as Tax Commissioner was also de- nied by the Senate, is somewhat dif- | ferent, Gov. Gruening indicated. ‘The 1945 law creating the Depart- ment of Taxation sets forth that the Commissioner shall ke appoint- | ed by the Governor “by and with the consent of the majority of both | houses of the Legislature.” How- ever, though Mullaney’s appoint- ment was not consented to by the majority of the Senate, the Tax De- partment Act further provides: “In the event of a vacancy inl the Office of Tax Commissioner, a | successor shall be appointed to| serve for the balance of the unex- pired term. If such vacancy oc- curs while the Legislature is not in session, the appointment shall be made by the Governor and the per- | son so appointed shall hold office— ! “(2) if the Legislature at its next | ing {o’clock from the Chapel equipment now available as Army and Navy surplus.
