Come and see the remnrkable action of FIRE DUST | RUSTGARD HAS SHORT REPORT FOR LAWMAKERS |Condenses All He Has to Say to Legislature in Under Seven Pages (Continued from page 1) | “receives royalties from more than one mining property he shall pay| |the tax on the aggregate income | over $5,000.00." The opening sen-| |tence of that sub-section has beenl amended so as to provide that the Inet income tax S$hall apply only! “In my last report I made the following recommendation: “‘It has happened in the past, and I expect it to happen in the near future, that unpatented min- ing claims are turned over to the Territory as escheated property. There are no funds available from which assessment work on such claims can be paid, and unless such claims can be sold before the time for assessment work expires, they will be forfeited and lost to the| Territory. 1 recommend that a small sum be made available for the purpose of paying assessment work in such cases, if it be found necessary to do so, in order to save valuable property for the Ter- ritory." “The Legislature did not see fit to adopt the suggestion, and as a result the Territory in 1929 lost a' {mining claim which could probably | have been sold for some $10,000.00. “I recommend that this problem to net incomes in excess of $10,- {000.00. But no amendment was| I’made to the last provision of the sub-section relative to royalties from two or more properties. As a result of this incongruity this of- fice has been forced to hold that where a person received a royalty from only one property he has an exemption of $10,000.00, but where he receives a royalty from more than one property he has an ex-| emption of only $5,000.00. (See vol- ume 3 of Opinions of Attorney General, page 250.) This situa-| tion was probably not intended by, the Legislature, but the construc- tion applied became imperative by the language employed. I suggest | ,such amendment as is consistent | 'with the Jjudgment of the Legisla- ture on this subject. i “(b) Section 4 of the General Taxing Act above referred to pro- vides for a fine of not to exceed 1$1,000.00 for violation of the sta- ‘tute, but nothing is stated as to | Who should receive the fine. Un- ,doubtedly the fine should be paid |to the Territorial Treasurer be- {cause Congress has imposed upon| ,the Territory the duty to prose-; cute at its own expense violations | of the taxing statutes. | “(c) Section 7 of the General! Taxing Act provides that “prose- cution for the violation of any oth- er provisions of this act may be; by information filed by the Attor- ney General or other authorized legal counsel of the Territory.” Many prosecutions are instituted by the tax collector working under the directions of the Treasurer of the Territory to whom blank forms for complaints and other documents {have been furnished by this office, but the question has at times aris- en as to whether such tax collec- tor is “authorized legal counsel of the Territory” in contemplation of this act. An amendment to clar- |ify this section should be adopted and at the same time any deputy marshal should be authorized to file complaint. 170 Poun 135 Pounds 145 Pounds of Juneau, 150 lbs. jbe reconsidered during the session of the 10th Legislature. “Sub-section b of Section 2 of Chapter 73 of Laws of 1923 pro- vides that Articles of Incorporation may be amended “when authorized by the holders of a majority of the stock given at a regular meet- ing of the stockholders,” while Sec- tion 21 of the same Chapter pro- |vides that a vote of “two-thirds of all its stock” shall be necessary for such amendment. This obscurity of the present statue should be |clarified by an amendment.” ———eeo—— MIDGET LUNCH To our many friends and cus- tomers Ave wish to announce the cpening of the MIDGET LUNCH under the old management. adv.
