Reprint From the
Juneau Independent
That awful Legislature!
Those terrible Democrats.
I’ll never vote for another one
of those fellows again as long as
I live! _
Expressions such as tnese
and some considerably less polite
—could be heard on any street
corner in Alaska yesterday °
lowing adjournment of the Una
ferritorial Legislature.
Public feeling is running high
over failure of the House of Re
presentatives and Senate to com
plete their work of enacting a
new unemployment compensa
tion law and general appropria
tions act.
The compensation reserve
fund, if predictions made or;ly a
few days ago have proven cor
rect, is gone completely.
Funds for operating Territorial
offices and services will run out
on Thursday, the end of the 1953
55 biennium. Failure of final ac
tion on the general appiopria
tion act makes nothing available
<x> permit schools, health centers,
welfare offices, police stations
and all the other agencies of Ter
rtiorial government to open their
doors on Friday.
And it’s all because of—that
awful Legislature.
So runs public sentiment
throughout Alaska.
We think the long view of his
tory will demonstrate that this
public belief of the moment is
wrong.
We think time will show that
the 22nd Legislature was a good
Legislature, an outstanding one,
perhaps the best in our Territori
al history.
Its accomplishments include:
Reorganizing and systematiz
ing Territorial budget, finance,
purchase and accounting proce
Providing for a Constitutional
Convention to draft a Constitu
dures.
lion for the future State of Alas
Adopting a model oil and gas
conservation act.
Creating a Territorial Library
Service.
Overhauling insurance regula
tion and creating an Insurance
Commission.
Tightening up the motor ve
hicle laws.
Making it possible for all chil
dren attending schools in Alaska
under compulsory education laws
to ride school buses.
Revising the juvenile code.
Providing for uniformity in
handling appointments and con
firmations.
Setting up a new teachers' re
tirement system.
Regulating private employ
ment agencies.
Regulating the small loan busi
ness.
And many, many other for
ward steps, embraced in some 180
acts which were passed by both
houses of the Legislature.
But the 22nd session appeared
to fall to pieces in its final mo
ments, failing to enact an unem
ployment compensation bill or a
general appropriations act.
A chapter and verse account of
exactly what happened in those
two fields of effort may dispel
the belief at least in the minds
of those who really want to un
derstand what goes on in public
affairs that the legislature just
ended was irresponsible and
wasteful of time and money.
The appropriations act impasse,
through it was the incident which
brought the session to its crash
ing and unhappy finish, and
through it has made an extra
ordinary session necessary was
only incidental to the FSC battle
which was the big issue of the
22nd session.
People ask why the Legislature
iet the matter of attending to
ESC legislation go until the last
minute. The answer is that the
Legislature did not do so. A bill
to revise the unemployment com
pensation program was introduc
ed during the second week of
the session. This was House Bill
50. Though it makes sense tech
nically and corrected many short
comings of existing ESC legisla
tion, most members felt it was
more expensive than Alaska, in
its present stage of development,
could afford. Benefits would be
generous under it. Of necessity,
contributions would have to be
increased.
The House Labor Committee
went to work immediately, hold
ing daily hearings on House Bill
50. Within a few weeks, a great
ly revised and more practical
measure emerged as Committee
Substitute for House Bill 50.
Meanwhile, a very different
proposal with the unemployment
compensation problem was in
troduced in the Senate as Senate
Bill 56. A Senate committee went
to work on it with equal dili
gence. It reached the stage of a
vote first, passing the Senate 9
to 7, though one of the members]
voting for it announced hf was
doing so only to permit some
*ind of a measure to go to the
House to speed the process of
compromise toward a bill accep
table at both ends of the hall.
House Bill 50 was vigorously
supported by the labor lobby.
Senate Bill 56 was advocated
with equal vigor by an employer
lobby in which canned salmon
industry representatives were
most obvious and active.
The House amended Senate
Bill 56 by striking out everything
after its enacting clause and sub
stituting the body of their own
Committee Substitue for House
Bill 50. Inevitably the bill—or
bills—tossed back and forth be
tween the houses, went to con
ference.
The conference committee, fin
ally given powers fo free con
ference, could not get a major
ity of its members to agree on
anything, so deep was the ideo
logical cleavage between the two
houses, but one of the house
members agreed to sign the re
port for the purpose of giving
the respective houses a chance
co consider the compromise.
It was accepted by the Sen
ate—the “compromise” was Sen
ate Bill 56 in essence—but re
jected by the House.
For perhaps 24 hours the real
possibility of a meeting of minds
and actions was imminent, par
ticularly after information re
ceived from the Bureau of Em
ployment Security in Washing
ton indicated that with a few
changes the conference commit
tee bill would cost out.
The House humbled itself to
request, in the light of this new
information, that the conferees
meet again. The Senate refused
by a vote of 10 to 6.
That killed ESC legislation for
the session.
A Senate majority, including
all the Republican members, two
of the holdover Democrats elect
ed in 1952 and a couple of im
pressionable newcomers, was
gambling that the House would
have to come all the way to the
employer version in order to sal
vage any kind of ESC bill by
time of adjournment.
The House refused to capitu
late entirely, so the session ended
without an ESC bill.
Down to the end, the salmon
lobby thought the pressure would
be sufficient to bring the House
around. The industry’s represen
tatives—on and off the floor—
were jubilant. As the clock ticked
on, however, and it became ob-v
vious the House would not
knuckle under, all the jubilation
went out of them. They had
gambled — and lost.
On appropriations, work began
in the first week of the session*
Committees never worked hard
er or sifted more carefully. The
House Ways and Means Commit
tee had the bill ready to intro
duce last Saturday. At the sug
gestion of the President of the
Senate and the Chairman of the
Senate Finance Committee, they
held it back for four days in
order to avoid pressure from
agency heads for more money.
Then the bill was introduced,
considered on the House floor
and passed. It reached the Sen
ate at 5:30 o’clock the afternoon
of the 60th day. The Senate Fi
nance Committee did not bring
it out on the floor of the upper
house until 5 o’clock the next
morning. It was not passed until
about 8 o’clock. It was never
typed or engrossed. It was in
stead delivered to the House at
9:25 in the morning, just 35
minutes before adjournment was
mandatory, in the form of the
original House bill plus a fistful
of 54 individual amendments on
separate slips of paper. Six legal
