JUNEAU* Feb. 8, —Contending
that the thirty three remaining
days of the present session of the
legislature was insufficient to han
die 'ho work, particularly to deal
with social security, the senate
rushed through a resolution in
troduced by Representative Brun
nelle of the Third Division, ask
ing Governor John W. Troy to
call a special session upon the
completion of the present one.
The resolution said that bad
weather, lacking of transporta

from arriving on time.

call a special session of not to
exceed fifteen days. ,
The house is expected to give
favorable action on the proposal
early this week. ,
The first bill dealing with so
cial security was introduced in
