  HCR 33 - PURCHASE FEDERAL LAND FROM THE UNITED STATES                        
                                                                               
  Number 345                                                                   
                                                                               
  CHAIRMAN VEZEY opened HCR 33 for discussion.  He noted the                   
  committee had been waiting for the companion bill in the                     
  Senate to come over.  He said HCR 33 is calling for the                      
  governor to offer the U.S. $10 billion for the federal                       
  government's interest in Alaska.                                             
                                                                               
  REPRESENTATIVE FRAN ULMER commented $10 million would be a                   
  great deal, but she was not so sure about $10 billion.                       
                                                                               
  CHAIRMAN VEZEY, hearing no more comments, held HCR 33 in                     
  committee.                                                                   
                                                                               
  (REPRESENTATIVE G. DAVIS left the meeting at 9:27 a.m. to                    
  testify on a bill in Finance Committee.)
