Bartlett Says Two
Investigators For
Senate In Alaska
WASHINGTON, UD — Delegate
Bartlett said Thursday the Senate
Committee on government opera
tions has two investigators in Al
aska.
He said he was so advised by
Francis Flanigan, chief counsel
for the committee headed by Sen.
McCarthy.
Bartlett said he was informed
the two men are working pri
marily for the Department of In
terior, but on matters “which
might be of interest to the com
mittee later.”
Neither chairman McCarthy of
the committee nor Flanigan was
immediately available for com
ment. Committee staff members
declined to comment.
At the Interior Department An
thony Laust, deputy director of
the Office of Territories, said the
office has “one investigator in
Alaska at this time.”
Laust told a reporter he knew
nothing about any investigators
from the Senate Committee being
there and said his office is not
paying the expenses of any such
men.
Alaska to Refund Income
Tax on Differential Only
After Govt. Pays Claims
ANCHORAGE, CD — The An
chorage Times reported yesterday
that the Territory of Alaska will
refund income tax paid by federal
employes on their cost of living
differential only after the federal
government has paid such claims
against it.
John Mansuy Jr., assistant at
torney general, said at Juneau the
federal employes must present an
affidavit showing that federal re
fund has been obtained.
The territorial repayments may
amount to as much as a million
dollars. Mansuy advised Tax Com

not be necessary for the legisla
ture to appropriate money for re
funds as the law provides they
may be made from general fund.
