Vote Shift of Sens. Neal Foster and
Marcus Jensen Kill Appointments
Bill and Thwart Democrats’ Will
By JIM HUTCHESON
JUNEAU, UP!—A surprise shift
of two Democratic senators’ votes
upheld Gov. Heintzleman’s veto
of the controversial appointments
bill Monday night and thwarted
the Democratic majority’s will in
both branches of the legislature.
The two who shifted from ear
lier views favoring the measure
were Sens. Marcus Jensen, of
Douglas, and Neal Foster, Nome.
The Senate’s vote to override
was 10-6, but 11 votes were need
ed to meet the required two
thirds of the members. The Sen
ate originally passed the bill 12-4,
with the vote strictly on party
lines.
A short time before, the House
had quickly voted to override the
governor’s disapproval 21-3. The
tally was the same as when the
bill was originally passed.
Both branches heard the gov
ernor’s lengthy and legally
phrased veto message read before
they acted.
The governor emphasized that

the measure “does violence” to
the historic principle of division
of authority among the executive,
legislative and judicial branches.
Under terms of the bill, which
was introduced by Rep. Riley,
Haines, the legislature could make
appointments of its own if it dis
liked a gubernatorial one and re
fused twice to confirm it.
The principal arguments of sup
porters were that the legislature
should have a closer control over
appointments to boards, commis
sions and so forth. The governor
is only an appointee himself, sup
porters urged, and the legislature
is actually more directly respon
sible to the people.
Jensen had spoken on the floor
during the debate of how every
legislator’s conscience was going
to have to be his guide, indicating
he might veer.
Foster, however, had sat silent
ly and seriously through the long
debate over whether the legisla
ture had a right to take over an
appointive role from the execu
tive branch or whether the nature
of Alaska’s executive department,
with an appointive governor who
is not responsible to the voters,
gives an automatic grant of more
authority to the legislature than
it does in any state.
The drama-packed Senate ses
sion brought citations of legal
opinions on both sides of the ar
gument. The Republicans alleged
it was unsavory politics, unprece
dented, as Senator Charles Jones
of Nome phrased it, back to the
days when he served in the first
legislature.

House Passes Bill
I
For Bus Service to
Parochial Schools
By JIM HUTCHESON
JUNEAU, CP)—A bill to provide
territorial bus service to children
attending parochial schools on
which the regular public school
buses travel, passed the House
on Monday.
It provided some controversy,
and the vote on it was 16-6.
While some of the opponents
raised the question of constitu
tionality of the territory provid
ing transportation for pupils in
non-public schools, the support
ers of the measure argued that
all school children should have
the right of riding to their schools
instead of feeling the discrimina
tion of walking along a cold and
dark highway in winter while
school buses pass them by.
Rep. Lester Bronson (D-Nome),
who said he was a parochial him
self, argued the school was a
matter of free choice and the
parent should be willing to get
their children to it.
Bronson made the motion to
table the bill but the motion
failed.
Rep. Ken Johnson (D-Anchor
age), chairman of the ways and
means committee, said the Educa
tion Department estimated the
added bus costs would run around
$150,000 a biennium “and I feel
it would just complicate the prob
lem we already have of transport
ing students.” He said the legisla
ture should take action instead to
try to get school districts to shoul
der more of their own bus costs.
Reps. Warren Taylor (D-Fair
banks) and Peter Kalamarides <D
Anchorage) appealed to the House
against setting up “a dollar sign
barrier” to school children of any
type.
Taylor also argued that if the
children had to be educated in
public schools instead of parochi
al schools, the added cost to tax
payers would be above $200,000
per biennium.
The six who voted against the
bill were Bronson, Bullock, John
son, Locken, Sweeney and Kay.
