Legislative
Highlights.
Mildred R. Hermann
As the first week of the Alaska
Legislature drew to a close, a
definite pattern of legislation
had begun to take shape. Its
general motif was destructive
rather than constructive, unless
w# are to deem the destruction
of existing set-ups a step toward
building a constructive program.
By week’s end the most im
portant bill, having as its objec
tive the wiping out of various
sectors of the established govern
mental set-UD, was as follows:
House Bill No. 1, and Senate
Bill No. 1-the 2 bills are not id
entical but they seek the same
objective—the transfer of all the
Territorial Administrative funct
ions of the Governor to a new
official, created by the Act and
called the Administrator-Gener
al. Its main purpose is to take
from the Governor all the ad
ministrative functions, previous
ly conferred upon him by laws
passed by the Alaska Legisla
tures, leaving him in possession
only of the function he possesses
as a Federal official. The bill sets
up a salary of $10,000 per an
num as the salary of the Admin
istrator General, but keeps dis
creetly silent about the huge a
mount, now paid principally by
the Federal Government, that
will be required to finance the
operations of the new set-up if
the bill passes
It would seem that the bill is
aimed at the new Republican
Governor who is all good Rep-:
ublicans believe, destined to i e j
place the present Governor,
come 1948, rather than- the in
cumbent Governor. Governor
Gruenmg. who in his biennial
address to tbe Legislature last
Thursday, characterized his mes
sage as his fourth and last mes
sage to the Legislature could de
rive no particular damage from
its pastrin; He now has less than
a year to seive of Lis present
term He would have no more
t.tioin eight months lett from the
effective date of the Act an eight
months ihat would probably
seem mo t- i’ke a vacatiou than a
penalty.
Als^ indicative of the tendency
to de troy existing patterns of
g .vernment is the bi'l to abMish
the Development Board, intro

of Coffey and Green. It is not
