alien; to receive old age assistance
benefits if Alaska has been their
residence since 1935.
A proposal by Rep. Carlson tc
increase maximum monthly bene
fits from $80 to $90 was hotly argued
and finally voted down 7 to 17.
‘•There’s no use in raising the
maximum when we can't put up
the money to pay it.” said Rep
Franklin. "It disappoints the re
cipients and works a hardship on
the Welfare Department, since the
department gets blamed for not pay
ing maximum benefits to every
body.”
"This Legislature has an obliga
tion to the old-timers of Alaska tc
increase the benefits,” asserted Rep
McCutcheon. “Living costs have
gone up and we can’t expect then
to maintain themselves on wha< ■
they are now receiving. I for one
am prepared to vote taxes so we can
take care of these people.”
Rep. Scavenius said that talk of
balancing the budget was only a
means of ducking the responsibili
ties of the Legislature.
"You may have a chance to vote
for more taxes without making any
increase here,” warned Rep. Frank
lin. "Budget requests are already
far above anticipated revenues.
Minimum Wanted
Rep. Frank Johnson felt that
there should be a minimum as well
as a maximum benefit, and sug
gested $50 a month. Rep. Kay ex
plained that the monthly benefits
paid are based upon need and that
the needs of some recipients ma\
be below $50 a month.
Rep. Hendrickson pointed out
that the old age assistance progran
is much better financed in Alaska
than the aid to dependent children
or other welfare programs and sug
gested that the others should bf
raised first.
“I think we ought to raise all of
them,’ ’said Rep. Scavenius. “Wi
can vote more taxes and we can cal ,
a special session next year if nec
essary to raise more funds.”
Bill Passes 20-4
Only Rep. Miscovich spoke against
the bill when it came up for fina
passage. "I don’t think it’s f goot
thing to eliminate the citizenshil
provisions of the present law,” Iv
said. "Thei-e are entirely too man;
aliens in the Territory who have
made no effort to take out evei ,
their first papers.” >
Representatives Egan, McCutch
eon and Stepovich joined Rep. Mis
covich in voting against the bill.

UNIVERSITY
S.E, BRANCH
BILL KILLED
'Continued from Page One)
The university debate was the
highlight of a morning session that
also saw the introduction of several
bills of wide interest.
Sen. Frank Barr dropped in the
civilian deft;-:e bid that has been
long awaited.
It asks a total territorial appro
priation of $1,100,000. Of the total.
$800,000 would be contingent on
getting federal matching funds on
an even basis, or better.
It would set up a civilian defense
council under the governor. There
would be a full-time defense direc
tor with a salary up to $12,000
a year. A salary up to $9,000 is
proposed for a deputy director.
The bill would give the governor
sweeping emergency powers, with
Ihe consent of the council, to seize
property or facilities in case of
an enemy attack.
E'en. Gunnard Engebreth intro
duced a bill calling for a referen
dum vote by Alaskas on whether
they desire a bond issue of not more
than $12,500,000 for school purposes.
Engebreth also introduced a me
morial to congress asking a change
in the organic act to permit the
territory to bond itself within speci
fied limits.
Stray nogs
Sen. Walter Huntley introduced a
long-awaited bill for licensing of
stray dogs. The bill was drawn
after a string of letters reached
the legislators from around the
territory in protest against roving
bands of dogs. Parents complained
they have become a dnngereous
menace to children. The bill pro
vides a $5 male license and $25
female fee for dogs that aren’t
kept on a leash or in teams.
The first division senators split
three-one on the university branch
issue.
In explaining his vote, Elton
Engstrom (R-Juneau) declared:
"My vote must be determined
by the financial condition of the
territory. The first consideration
is to meet the obligations we al
ready have. Taking care of the
youngsters in the schools is more
important right now than a'higher
education institution. Fisheries re
search is proceeding and will be
taken care of all right.”
Senator Garnick quoted from a
university regent's report that a i
southeastern branch was advisable. I
She quoted at length from a Ketchi
kan newspaper advertisement, by
numerous business people there, in
support of the thesis that “Alaska

ran afford to plan for its future.”
£cn. James Nolan <D-Wrangell)
said the start planned for the pro
posed school would need be only
a simple one: that none of the
nrst appropriation would be needed
for construction; that sites and
facilities would be available and
that such a school would be valu
able as a fisheries and forestry
research center.
Tried to Save Bill
Dr. R. M. MacKenzie (D-Ketchi
kanl tried to save the bill before
' the final vote by amending it to
cut the $500,000 appropriatoin pro
posal to $250,000. He described it
as “a modest request. It shouldn't
be treated on sectional lines.”
Other senator;; who spoke for
the bill were Gunnard Engebreth,
and Frank Barr. Barr said he was
voting for it on the theory the
board of administration would hold
up the funds if the treasury was
drained too dry.
Engebreth, in a lengthy talk for
the bill, cpmmented:
“The third division is sometimes
accused of being selfish, but here
we stand to be counted on an issue
of benefit to the first."
He contended that if the legisla
ture could provide $300,000 for hair
seal bounties, it could fork up
$250,000 for a university.
That brought a sharp retort from
Butrovich that the bounty deficit
was just another example of the
kick - back from a free - spending
policy in the legislature; that there
was no choice about paying them
because they had been provided by
law.
The second division senators took
as lively a part in the argument
as did those from the directly
affected first.
While Ipalook discussed the lack
of schools for the Eskimos, Sens.
Ed Anderson and Howard Lyng,
Nome Democrats, both spoke against
the bill. Both emphasized that the
budget was the big concern.
Lyng suggested the nation’s top
schools of fisheries and forestry
were available to Alaskans at the
University of Washington: “The
time will come later for the south
eastern branch—but not now.”
The senate action today came
after a busy Monday afternoon
in which seven minor bills were
passed.
