I, sec. 14, Alaska Constitution, which specifically enumerates "persons, houses and other property, papers, and effects." However, before a search without warrant is made a signed written statement by the person making the search shall be submitted to the person in control of the property or object to be searched, stating the reason the search is being conducted. A written receipt shall be given by the person conducting the search for property which is taken as a result of the search.
