WASHINGTON ‘/T* A prime?
fact of congressional life is the |
hallowed seniority system — it's j
first come, first served almost j
everywhere you turn in Congress j
Nowhere does the seniority
stcplndder assume greater im- \
portance than in the assignment j
and rank of members on Senat ■ I
and House committees where the :
basic legislative work is done.
Assuming there is no basic
change in their committee assign
ments, last week’s election will
mean a step-up in committee rank
for two members of Alaska’s three- 1
man delegation.
Sen. Ernest Omening and Rep.
Ralph Rivers move up on the
Seriate and House Interior Com
mittees which handle measures of
maior importance to Alaska.
Gruening goes from sixth to
fifth place in seniority on the Sen
ate committee which puts him in j
line for chairmanship of one of
its five subcommittees.
The “promotion" is due to the
defeat of Sen. John Carroll, <D-i
Colo.), who headed the Minerals.
Materials and Fuels Subcommittee.
There’s no telling specifically !
what Gruening’s assignment will :
be until the 88th Congress meets j
next January, but he will be eli- !
gible for a chairmanship.
Rivers moves up three notches
on the House Interior Committee
to eighth place, one short of eligi
bility for a subcommittee chair- j
man ship.
The standing of Rivers was af
fected by the withdrawal of Rep.
Grade Pfost, <D-Tdaho>. and de
feat of Reps. .T. T. Rutherford, 'D
Texd, and D. S. Saund, (D-CalJ.
No change is foreseen in the
standing of Sen. E. L. Bartlett who
remains in ninth place on the
Armed Services and Commerce
Committees.
Gruening stays in fifth place on
the Government Operations Com
mittee and in seventh place on the
Public Works Committee. Rivers
serves only on the Interior Com
mittee.
Safe Housing Program . . .
A pilot program aimed at pro
viding adequate and safe housing
for villagers in remote parts of
Alaska is a major aim of Sen. E.
L. Bartlett.
The goal, said Bartlett, is- to find
a program “which will begin to
meet the needs of the people in our
Eskimo, Indian and Aleut vil
lages.”
Studies are under way to deter
mine which villages would be eli
gible under Public Housing Ad
ministration (PHA> requirements
and one community will be chosen
for the initial demonstration,
Bartlett said.
Results in that village will be
used to formulate a program flexi
ble enough to meet the varying
needs of other villages.
Cooperating in the effort are
the Alaska State Housing Author
ity, the PHA and the Bureau of
Indian Affairs.
Electronics Course for Natives
The Air Force has authorized
training of 23 Alaska natives in
the Radio Corp. of America (RCA)
electronics course in Los Angeles,
Calif.
A similar program of training
technicians to man various elec
tronic defense outposts in Alaska
has been conducted by RCA in
New York for some time.
