Butrovich cited states and the Federal Government under bonded burdens and declared | “I'm for stalling it off for four years or forever.” Snider quipped that proponents were trying to meet a financial emergency by “applying the old Dutch process of trying to fill a hole by digging deeper. Nolan contended localities should } be able to meet their own school financing by doing their own bond- ing on earmarked proceeds from the cigaret tax. Sen. Howard Lyng' contended changing the organic act, which has “been our guardian against en- croachment all these years,” was too serinns a move to warrant action until the people have spoken by! relerenaum. He protested that the number of measures on the bond issue proposal were creating con- fusion. When Roden was on the stand, Sen. Ed Anderson of Nome put the direct question as to whether he’ had changed his former anti-bond | issue position and now favored that form of financing. Roden wouldn’t be pinned down on the specific is- sue, insisting a more thorough study of school building needs was nec- essary from his own standpoint. But | he agreed with Anderson that if) the Territory could meet its basic| needs without a bond issue, it would be best. o DONNA STODDART HONOR STUDENT WILLAMETTE UNIV. Miss Donna Stoddart, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Hugh A. Stoddart of | Juneau was one of 118 students | who received grade points of 3.500 to 3999 for the fall semester of academic work at Williamette Uni- versity, at Salem, Oregon, accord- ing to advices released this week by the University. Miss Stoddart is a junior stu- dent and is majoring in science and pre-medics MAIL CLERK HERE Paul 8. Warber, chief U. S. Post Office mail clerk for the Anchor- age area, has arrived here from Anchorage ard is staying at the + Baranof hotel.

Locken said he believes af least 51 per cent of the teacher: will be satisfied with the increase: recommended by the Territorial Board of Education. Vote on Amendment The vote on Rep. Conright' amendment: —Conright, Degnan, Gunder- sen, Kay, McCutcheon, Pollard Scavenius, Wells and Egan. Against—Barnes, Carlson, Frank- lin, Gasser, Hendrickson, Hope, Johnson, Laws, Locken, MacKinnon, Madsen, Miscovich, Stepovich, and Wilbur. Another Conright amendment, to increase the raise to $300-$450-$600 was also voted down 8-15, with Rep. Gundersen changing sides “because there isn’t any.additional increase for the First Division.” “I think some people here are voting for the record,” said Rep. Barnes. “I want you to know that I vote first and I am not voting for the record. I would like to vote ‘yes’ on big increases for the teach- ers, but I am unable to see my way clear to do so in view of our Terri- torial finances.” Political Issue “I want you to note that the majority of the Demccrats of this House voted for the additional in- creases and the Republicans voted against them,” said Rep. McCut- cheon when the bill went into third { reading. “This is not a political issue and I don’t want it so considered,” countered Rep. Stepovich. “We are following the recommendations of the Board of Education and I don't know what the politics of its mem- bers are.” “I like the school teachers, even if I am a Republican,” said Mrs. Barnes. “We gave them a raise two years ago and we are giving them another raise this year. If we had more revenues I would consider giving the teachers more money.” “I regret that there is an effort to make this a political issue,” said | Rep. Frarklin. “It is not a political issue. Both parties have advocated a balanced budget and holding the line on taxes.” Fighting Words “Mr. Franklin is over on the Re- ARG publican side and if he wants to stay there he is welcome to it,” re- there is he welcome to it,” re-| marked Rep. Scavenius. His re- marks set the stage for the nearest thing the House has had to a knockdown fight since the “Doc” Walker-Harry Badger bout of 1945. Rep. Franklin left his seat and strode purposefully across chamber toward Scavenius. Rep, | Stepovich left his seat at the rear tercept Franklin, while Rep. Mis- covich loudly whispered, “Leave 'em alone, leave 'em alone.” Franklin grasped Scavenius’ neck- sie but the latter did not rise from his seat or offer to defend himself. Franklin warned Scavenius not to make any further impugning re- marks and returned to his seat. A few moments later Franklin apolo- sized for losing his temper but said he thought Scavenius’ remarks were | antirely out of order. ‘Will Fight Taxes Rep. McCutcheon asserted that he | s willing to raise taxes in order 0 meet teachers’ pay raises and other raises in Territorial expendi- cure. “The only tax bills that have been introduced are taxes on fish and I will fight both of them be- cause they levy taxes that come from only one class of people,” asserteq Rep. Carlson. The final vote on the pay raise bill was 19-2, with Reps. Conright | and Degnan voting.in the negative. | Speaker Egan’s bill to appropriate $60,000 for use of the Alaska Visi- tors Association whs under con- sideration at the time of the noon recess after a motion by Rep. Mis- covich “to table this bill until the | bill to repeal the Alaska Develop- | ment Board Act is passed,” had been defeated by a 6-16 vote. The House voted down an amendment by Rep. Scavenius to place control of Visitors Association expenditure in the hands of the Alaska De- velopment Board. MRS.
