PAGE TWO s A NORTHERN NOTEBOOK By BOB DE ARMCND - - (Twenty-eighth of a Series) Alaska’s 13th Governor, Dr. Er- nest Henry Gruening, has served longer in the office than any of the 12 governors who preceded him, and longer, for that matter, than any of the 13 Russian governors who succeeded Alexander Baranof. Baranof, the first of the Russian governors, hung up a record that s not likely to be equaled—i8 years on the job. But Dr. Gruening other record unequaled by any of his predecessors, Russian or Am- erican, This is a record for the amount of time spent away from the Territory of which he is gov- ernor. Even in the percentage of time spent elsewhere than Alaska dur- ing his incumbency, Dr. Gruening has outstripped all the others ex- cept the first American governor, John H. Kinkead, who served only ten months and four days and didn’'t come to Alaska at all during that time. A check of newspaper files for the past six calendar years reveals that Governor Gruening was away from the Territory more than a third of the time—two years and 145 days, to be exact. During the year 1950 he was out of Alaska for six months and ten days—from January 1 until Febru- ary 3, February 14 until March 22, March 28 until May 11, June 14 until June 21, September 15 until November 1, and December 6 until December 24. Longest single absence during the six-year period was 105 days in 1945-1946, but there were a couple of 100-day trips, one in 1949 and one that started in 1949 and ran over into 1950. has set an- Since the absences of Governor Gruening have grown progressively longer—a little more than two months in 1945 and more than six months in 1950—it may be expected that if he holds onto the office long enough he will spend scarcely any time at all in the Territory, perhaps making a flying visit in February and March of odd-num- bered years to glance over the bills passed by the Legislature. And speaking of gubernatorial absences, Dr. E. H. G. has been notably scarce around the galler- ies and corridors of the Legislature this session as compared with some of 'thé" previous sessions. So far as we are aware, he has been down there only four times— when he delivered his message to a point session, when called to ap- pear before a joint executive ses- sion, to hear a talk to a joint ses- sion by H. Clyde Reeves on the subject of reorganization, and when called in by the House Committee on Ways and Means regarding an| J. A. Durgin Company, Inc.

Milliken of Col- orado during the hearing on Gov- srnor Gruenings's confirmation at { Washington, D. C. in 1949. Said Senator Milliken, in part: | “To me it does not make any dif- | terence who improperly influences | the legislator. I am suggesting that the Governor with all of his pres- {tige and power exerts a tremen- ! dous influence when he commences to circulate around the legislature halls and commences to make im- portunities for the furtherance of his program. I am wondcring whether you have used the prestige of your office to try to overawe the Legislature.” The Governor of Alacka is by no means the only official, Federal or Territorial, who has done a lot of traveling in recent years, and travel expense has become a size- able budget itcm at both the Fed- eral and Territorial lavels. We have no idea how much the Federal government _spénds on travel each year, but it is net un- reasonable to expect that a com- a mittee of Congress or a special] commission will one of these days make a study of it, turn in a re- port and make recommendations, and that the matter can then rest for another decade or two. At the Territorial level, how'-| | ever, the report of Auditor Neil Moore lists travel expense for the 21 months from April 1, 1949, to | December 31, 1950, at $407,119.64, plus another $124,420.88 for vehicle operation. These totals do not include all expenditures for travel expense and vehicle operation since in several departments all expenditures are lumped as “Administrative Ex- ense.” Largest departmental tures for the two items, by the Auditor, were: | Department of Agriculture: $4,- 1932.04 for travel. | Department of Fisheries: $21,- 894.94 for travel; $1,2326.42 for ve- hicle operation. | Department of Mines: $14,351.80 |and $344.54. | Alaska Aeronautics Division: $8,- |510.21 and $30. | Alaska Communications Division: 1251092 for travel. Highway Engineer: $18,326.65 and 1$46,938.93. | National Guard: $7.75. | Employment Security Commis- | sion: $38,564.56 for travel. Department of Health: $181,146.82 |and $73,623.14. Department of Labor: $11,605.63 for travel. | World War II Veterans' |$16,179.67 and $1,205.90. | Department of Education: 71150 for travel. | Attorney General: | travel. Alaska Statehood | $2,485 for travel. Department of Taxation: 572.98 and $50.81. expendi- as listed $7,716.56 and Fund: $12,- $4,419.73 for Committee: $25,- | | The true lobster is distinguished ‘{rom his imitative cousins by hav- | ing the first 3 pairs of his legs end in pincers.

Classified Advertising Department THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE March 8, 1951 HOUSE BILL 141 PASSES SECOND TIME (Continued from Page One) intention in writing the law and that a change would be detrimnetal to employers. Because the Employment Securi- ty Commission has not complied with the decree and order of the District Court, Faulkner said, con- tempt proceedings are being sought against it this afternoon. “We will show the Court that we are not in contempt,” said John McLaughlin, director of the Unem- ployment Insurance Division of the Commissidnl. “It takes a lot of time to recompute all of the credits and we have been working overtime on it.” The House recessed at noon, reconvene at 1:30. Saturday Session Controversial H. B. 141, providing for reorganization of financial con- trol offices of the Territory, passed the House Saturday afternoon by a 16-8 vote after a good deal of parliamentary jangling, some heat- ed debate and several postpone- ments. Final action on the bill was held over until today, however, when Rep. Doris Barnes gave notice of her intention to reconsider her vote A motion to take the reconsideration vote immediately fell one short of receiving the necessary two-thirds majority. . Voting “dgainst passage of the bill were Reps. Hendrickson, Hope, Laws, Locken, MacKinnon, Misco- vich, Stepovich and Wilbur, all Re- publicans except Hope who evident- ly voted with an eye to bécoming a minority member of the Conference Committee that may finally receive the bill, A motion by Rep. Miscovich that Governor Gruening be invited to appear before the House and com- ment on the bill was voted down 7-16 . “We are the legislative branch of the government and it would be just as sensible for us to invite all four District Judges to testify as to call on the administrative branch,” said Rep. McCutcheon. “I wanted to find out, if reor- ganization is needed in such a hur- ry right now, why the Territory hasn't been run right for the past 10 years,” Miscovich commented. Too Much Power Opposition to the bill, voiced by Reps. Barnes, Miscovich and Stepo- vich, was mainly on the grounds that it places too much ‘power in the hands of the Governor and that the action on the measure has been too hasty. “I think it is a good bill consider- ing that we have spent only two weeks on it altogether, but a bill of this importance should have much more study,” said Rep. Barnes. “The bill does away with two se- lective offices, places the entire con- trol of our financial affairs in the hands of appointive officers, pro- vides that the Governor need not take the advice of the Board of Ad- ministration and may not stand up because it is so hastily thrown to- gether,” said Rep. Stepovich. { “The affairs of the Territory are hopelessly muddled and this pro- vides a remedy,” asserted Rep. Sca- venius. “It is the answer putting our bookkeeping in order so that it can show the true condition of Territorial finances,” said Rep Franklin, ¢ Basically Simple “It is basically a simple bill and there has long been a crying need for this type of legislation,” said Rep. McCutcheon. “It will eliminate many overlapping features of our present set-up and put our affairs in order for statehood.” Rep. Metcalfe took exception to a Daily Alaska Empire front page editorial statement on Friday, which he said, “In my estimation was one of the poorest examples of journal- ism I have ever seem, since it was not labeled as either an editorial or a paid advertisement.” “This bill,” said Rep. Kay, “not only provides for a partial reor- ganization but sets the machinery for further reorganizing plans.” Why the Argument? “Why are we doing all this talk- ing?” Rep. Laws wanted to know. “Everybody knows the Democrats are going to vote solidly for the bill, so why not vote and get it over with?” The vote, several times delayed by other business and to secure the attendance of all members, was taken in mid-afternoon. The bill, following the reconsider- ation vote, goes to the Senate for further consideration. The House unanimously passed and sent to the Senate a bill to ex- tend general rellef assistance, under the Department of Public Welfare, to Native as well as white resi- dents of the Territory — provided that the Bureau of Indian Affairs contracts to turn over to the Ter- ritory its appropriations for relief assistance to the Natives. Hugh Wade, area director of the Alaska Native Service, told ‘the House members that he has auth- ority to enter into such a cuntrnct.l to THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA “We want to get out of the wel- ie her husband at the Park‘ fare business,” Wade said, and add- |Hill cemetery in Vancouver, Wash. ed that his only concern is whether the Territory will have sufficient | WELL BABY CLINIC funds to take care of the program. | The weekly Well Baby Clinic will “How well are you taking care of be held on Wednesday this week the Natives now?” asked Rep. Mis- | between the hours of 2 to 4 o'clock. covich. | Mrs. Welch, Public Health Nurse, “Not very well,” Wade replied. He said that general relief assistance payments to Natives had been about half the amount paid to white re- cipients. He also suggested that the Territory take over the ANS wel-| fare programs on a piecemeal basis, starting with general relef assist- ance this year and picking up board- ing home care and medical pro- grams in the futurc. Wade said the ANS had $242,786 for its entire welfare program last year and that $164,000 has been requested for the general relief assistance portion of the program next year. Pay No Taxes In answer to & ‘question by Rep. Miscovich, Wade said that five In- dian-owned salmon canrries in Southeast Alaska, most of them purchased through Wheeler-How- ard Act loans, do not pay trap taxes, case taxes Or other taxes to the Territory. Native-owned cooperative stores in the Second District are also ex- empt, he said, “What would happen to our fi- nances if all the Alaska salmon can- neries are puchased by the Indians with Wheeler-Howard Act loans?” Rep. Hendrickson wanted to know. Wade was excused from answer- ing. He said, however, that the ex- emption is based on an opinion by the Attorney General and doubt has been expressed that it would stand up in court. ‘Would Urge Payment “We would urge them to pay all Territorial taxes as soon as their loans are repaid and they are fi- nancially on their feet,” Wade said. “This cannery ownership by the Native people has a direct bearing on the relief problem,” said Rep. Andrew Hope. “The canneries were purchased primarily’ to insure em- ployment for these people. If the canneries are prosperous it will cut down on the amount of relief need- ed by these people and I am sure that they will be happy to pay taxes the same as other people.” Wade warned the House mem- bers that it will probably cost more for the Welfare Department to ad- minister the general relief program among the Natives than it costs the Alaska Native Service. Teachers’ Retirement House Bill 85, also unanimously approved and sent to the Senate’ amends the Teachers' Retirement) Act by providing for compulsory' retirement at age 60 instead of 65 and permitting retired teachers to engage in teaching in the States while receiving retirement benfits. Hous Bill 41, to repeal the Alaska Property Tax Act, failed to pass the House on a 12-12 vote after long debate and some parliamentary maneuvering. A motion by Rep. MeCutcheon to igdefinitely postpone the bill lost 8-16. Attacking the repeal bill, Rep. McCutcheon pulled out all the stops, cited lack of funds to increase pen- sions for the pioneers, a treasury deficit and a need for all possible revenues, He repeated, too, the often repeated story of the vast value of absentee-owned salmon canneries sthat pay no taxes while we are taxed to build schools and streets and churches and all other things that make up an Alaskan com- munity.” Hampers Progress Rep. Stepovich named the proper- ty tax a bar to progress in building up the industries of the Territory. Rep. Wells, one of the authors of the bill, asserted that it is a great hardship on the Native people who can ill afford to pay it, while Rep. Hope contended that it is no hard- ship to the Natives because their properties are not generally of great value. “The law is now in litigation and isn’t bringing a cent into the treas- ury,” said Rep. Hendrickson. “It will be in charge of the Clinic, which is in the Douglas Community Methodist Church.
