"I'd be very happy if the chairman wants to have more meetings--that would suit me very well indeed," Thomas said. "On this side, the power of the rules chairman has not been abused in recent years. As long as the chairman is doing a good job, and he's pleasing a majority of senators, there's no problem- And we have an excellent rules chairman." Thomas said though he was certain the committee would meet on some occasions, he did not know If the arrangement would be formalized.

PUG spokesman said a sales agreement has been reached between the utilities whereby AELP will acquire the electric plant, materials and supply inventory and certain real estate. The sale price is just over $1 million. Juneau Hydro Electric generates electric power which is sold to AELP and to Glacier Highway Electric Association, Inc. for resale to customers in the Juneau-Douglas-Auke Bay area.

Kay said state Atty. Gen. John Havelock had interpreted the existing law as limiting state participation to projects in which toUl funding is less than $1 million. In other action Tuesday, the panel deferred measures to limit campaign expenditures and the length of legislative sessions. Committee Chairman Tom Miller, R-Anchorage, deferred consideration of a state constitutional amendment that would limit legislative sessions to 90 days.

Authored by Sen. Lowell Thomas the measure would allow 10-day extension on a two-thirds vote of the legislature. Ray and Sen. Jalmar Kerttula, D-Palmer, said they were opposed to the concept. But Kerttula said he would favor a i complete with testimony from political scientists.

But it would be a detraction from the present assignment; if there were other things added to it to make up for this kind of detraction, I might be so inclined." Finance Chairman Cliff Groh of Anchorage said he assumed the question would be discussed in caucus, "and hopefully some progress can be made in that area." Minority senators, however, were more enthusiastic about the idea. Sen. Robert Ziegler, D-Ketchikan, a member of the committee, said the present rules setup placed "too much power in one man." But Ziegler said he was "merely a member of the minority, because it pays to cooperate." And Sen. Bill Ray, D-Juneau, said it had "always been my contention that rules is the same as any other committee." "I don't feel the rules chairman should be any more powerful than anyone else," Ray said. He also said, though, that no immediate consideration was being made by the Democratic caucus of pushing for the change.

Willard Bowman of Anchorage, one of two black members of the Alaska Legislature, says a coalition which succeeded in a i i the House of Representatives lives him "in the back of the bus again." Bowman and 11 other House Democrats were deserted by eight of their colleagues who supported the GOP leadership in exchange for several key committee assignments and elected Tom Fink, R-Anchorage, House speaker. Rep.

Mike Bradner, D-Fairbanks, was considered the frontrunner for speaker of the House if Uie 20 Democrats had able to organize themselves. "Mr. Fink has the chair now," Bradner said. "It will be up to the Republicans to exert the leadership in the session and the Democrats to fulfill the historic minority of pushing the leadership." "I guess that leaves us in the back of the bus again," Bowman sighed. "I'm used to it, but the others, I don't know." Bowman said the main reason the Democratic caucus was unable to agree on anything was that Rep.

Earl Hillstrand, D-Anchorage, insisted on getting the chairmanship of the Finance Committee. Bowman, chairman of the Democratic caucus, said he couldn't think of anything the Democrats could have done to keep the support of the insurgents. "If everybody had been bargaining in good faith and had agreed to sit down and realty work out this thing and keep putting those names and numbers around until they came up with something that everyone could live with, It would have worked," he said. "That's certainly what they had to do with the Republicans, right? Why couldn't they have done it with us? "I understand the Republicans gave Hillstrand the chairmanship of Finance. If this is true, that's possibly one thing he couldn't have gotten from a majority of the Democrats because they felt they could not have gotten favorable responses for their legislation with him as finance chairman."

William A. Egan to intervene in the impending layoff of 28 senior Labor Department workers. Jon A. Carter, APEA executive director, said in a letter to Egan that the employes--all with more than 15 years experience--had been mistreated and were victims of poor management. Late last year, former Labor Commissioner Henry Benson said federal spending cutbacks Apartment prices must be bargain TOKYO (AP) The Tokyo government offered 108 apartments for sale Monday and got 38,298 applications.

Most consisted of three rooms and a kitchen. would force the layoffs and result in cancellation of state manpower development and training programs. The workers are scheduled to be furloughed next Monday.

Among other "inexcusable factors," Carter said the department failed to give ade- qute notice of the move. Carter said the department sent a four-man training team to Employment Security offices in early December. He said many of those to be turloughed were aided by the team. "If the money spent on that training could have paid the salaries of those 28 employes for even one day, conscientious management would have delayed the training," he said. He also criticized the department for posting a list of affected job classifications prior to formal notification of individuals.

In addition, he said, Juneau-based officials evaluated the performance of Anchorage employes who were let "Those are just some of the questionable circumstances surrounding the layoff," Carter said. "I request that you exercise your executive powers by directing that no one will be laid off until a complete review is made of Uie situation by the attorney general's office, or the affected employes have had an opportunity to appeal their layoff to the State Personnel Board. "I would expect that all vacant positions in the state service of comparable work and pay be frozen until all 28 em- ployes are working in new jobs."
