Too Much to Bear
Bruin Hibernates
In the Basement
HAINES W — Mr. and Mrs.
Blake Graham, who rent a home
in this Southeastern Alaska city,
have a small complaint to make
about life on the last frontier.
There is a bear hibernating
under their house.
“I know he’s there,” Graham i
explained. “I had part of the floor ;
removed when I saw him.”
Graham said that last slimmer
a bear was seen in his back yard.
The animal apparently mistook
the small hole in his concrete
block foundation for a cave.
“There is one opening in the
foundation where a person can
crawl under the house to inspect
pipes. The bear went in there to
hibernate, and snow has now piled
so high the hole is blocked and he
can’t get out.”
Actually, the bear doesn’t want
to get out. He sleeps virtually all
the time.
“But you can wake him up if
you make too much noise,” Gra
ham said. “Sometimes if we have
guests and are too noisy, the
bear gets up and rumbles around.”
Graham complains that he, and
his wife, and Judy Tanape, who
boards with them, must constant
ly be reminding each other “don’t
make so much noise, you’ll wake
up the bear.”
Graham said he first noticed
“something was wrong” with his
house last fall. There were
strange rumblings and noises
coming up from the floor. Final
ly, while trying to repair an ap
pliance that he thought was at
fault, he removed a portion of
the floor and sighted a black
bear, all curled up and sleeping
soundly beneath his home.
“I’ll be glad when spring
comes,” Mrs. Graham said. “It’s
enough work taking care of your
husband without having to tiptoe
around so you won’t disturb the
bear.”
Bad insects make us neighbors.
Japan is troubled with an insect
pest there called the Colorado
beetle. Here it is called the Ja
panese beetle.
House Passes JFK’s
Get-Industry-Started Bill
WASHINGTON UPi — The House
today passed 259-167 President
Kennedy’s $394-million bill to
help industry get started in chron- I
ically depressed areas.
It was a substantial victory
for the administration, whose
forces beat on two votes a Re
publican attempt to scale the pro
gram down to $275 million.
The Republican effort was first
defeated 242-139 on a teller vote
in which the members are not
recorded by name. It was beaten
292-125 on a later roll call vote.
The Senate already has passed
the administration’s measure in
slightly different form. It re
sembles legislation vetoed in past
years by former President Ei
senhower. •
Today’s action by the House
contrasted with a Kennedy de
feat last week on minimum wages.
The House at that time adopted
a Republican substitute greatly
scaling down the Kennedy bill.
This issue now is up to the Sen
ate.

Legislators are
Reil-Faee<! - Rider
()n Rill ()verlooked
JUNEAU UP — The Legislature
discovered to its red-faced hor
ror yesterday that it had unwit
i tingly approved a b'll with a
rider repealing the 1959 legisla
tive pay bill.
The rider was attached to a
bill relating to notaries public,
which had been considered by a
House-Senate conference commit
tee to straighten out amendment
differences between the two
chambers.
The rider was not discovered
until after both the House and
Senate had accepted the confer
j ence committee’s reeommendatio ?s
and approved the bill.
“Some joker sneaked i! in,"
Rep. John Hellcnthal told the
House.
“That means we’ve rep -'le t
the law twice,” said Rep. Wil
liam Erwin as the House roa~e 1
with laughter. “We already re
pealed it when we passed the
new legislative pay bill.”
The House rescinded its action
in accepting the conference com
mittee report, and bucked the
whole thing back to the commit
tee for another trip.
A few minutes after the House
took its action. Senate Majority
Leader R. J. McNealy related the
sad story to the Senate.
“I have a hunch that the in
sertion of the repealer was not
an accident and I would be will
ing to make a guess as to which
member of the Legislature is the
guilty party,” McNealy said.
Sen. George McNabb got slow
ly to his feet and told the Senate:
“This has been one of the most
interesting legislative experiments
I can ever recall.
“Yes, I’m the guilty party, but
not an unsubstantial number of
the majority party members
knew what the amendment actu
ally did.
“Actually, it was a test of the
minority party, a test which was
failed most dismally, when you
consider that of the seven Repub
licans only Sen. Engstrom of Ju
neau voted against the bill.
“The experiment proves one of
two things: The minority party
doesn’t know what it is voting
on, or it wasn’t acting in good
1 faith when it went along with
j the pay cut bill.”
Sen. Howard Pollock, who has
had several floor brushes with
McNabb since the session began,
commented:
“The silver fox has shown
gross irresponsibility. After this,
I don’t think Sen. McNabb war
rants the trust of the Senate,
and, certainly, he should never
be permitted to ask unanimous
consent for anything again.”
The talking over, the Senate j
followed the lead of the House 1
and rescinded its action in ac- i
cepting the conference committee I
report and tossed the bill back
to the conference committee.
