Same Old Problems Will Face AlasLa
Legislature When It Convenes Mont ay
By Ward Sims
Associated Press Staff Writer
JUNEAU UP) — A host of the
same old problems are going to
be very much in evidence Monday
morning, when the 1963 legislature
opens its doors for business.
Employment security, workmen’s
compensation, salary increases for
teachers, tourism and elections all
should come in for top considera
tion.
But, the biggest problem—ampli
fied by the 20-20 split of Demo
crats and Republicans in the
House of Representatives—will be
the budget.
During the election campaign
last fall, not a few of the Republi
cans running for office expressed
the opinion that the state’s opera
tional budget should be held with
in the limits of recurring revenues.
GOP candidates argued that
such non-recurring revenues as
income from oil and gas lease
bonuses should be used for capi
tal construction or for other non
operational expenditures.
Evenly matched with the Demo
crats in the House this session, the
Republicans now find themselves
in a position to enforce this posi
tion, if they vote as a 20-man
bloc.
In an estimate submitted to the
last session of the legislature, the
administration set anticipated reve
nues during fiscal 1964 at
$60,155,960.
This figure included an esti
mated $3,770,500 from state land
receipts, including oil and gas lease
revenues, and the final $2,407,000
the state will receive in federal
transitional grants.
Attempts to boost employment
security benefits during the sec
ond state legislature in 1961 and
1962 failed to muster the necessary
support and any similar moves this
year will probably meet the same
fate.
Seek Repayment of ESC Debt
The State Chamber of Commerce
is actively seeking immediate re
payment of some $9.5 million in
federal employment security debts

Arctic Sanitary
through the state employmer se
curity fund or the general fu id.
The Chamber claims that under
the repayment provisions oi the
two federal loans involved, em
ployers are faced with an a nual
telescoping cost which acts is a
distinct hindrance to busine s.
The Chamber also backs a so
called variable duration fo nula
which bases employment see u\ty
benefits on a worker’s attac! nent
to the labor market.
On workmen’s compensation, the
State Federation of Labor has
urged the creation of an exclusive
state workmen’s compensatio i in
surance fund, a proposal opposed
by the Chamber.
The Federation and the Chamber
are also in direct opposition on a
Federation proposal that err oloy
ment security benefits be extended
on a mandatory basis to state em
ployes.
The Chamber contends state
employes are now able to obtain
employment security coverage on
a voluntary basis and that m nda
tory coverage would cost the
state’s taxpayers $600,000 m re a
year.
