ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION GOOD WILL ON GASTINEAU CHANNEL | There are smiles on the faces of Juneau mer- chants. Santa Claus has actually arrived. Last| week reports from about the nation said Christmas business was 10 to 20 per cent better than last ycixl'.‘ and now it is evident that Juneau and Douglas are to be no exception, forging ahead with the| buying wave that is sweeping the entire country; the metropolitan center of the North assuming its rightful heritage and showing the trend of revival| throughout Alaska. | The tone was apparent in the messages business | houses sent out Sunday in The Empire; messages| of good cheer; suggestions for those who have not| caught the full stride of the holiday season, but can, with little effort, catch the cadence in the time before the closing hour Tuesday night. | The twin cities of Gastineau Channel are back | to normal industrially and, consequently, materially. | Seldom has this community had better cause to| into the new year with greater courage and enthus-) fasm. Just as the nation stands undivided, so do| the communities of Gastineau Channel stand united | and jubilant at this season, ready to observe with| good will and abundance the Christmas of 1935. | TAX FOREIGNERS OR SENI: 'EM HOME | | Never in the history of our country has there| been a time when America needed to be more; thoroughly American than in these years of read-| justment when we find, seeping into our country,|war-weary world until every possible effort to per- 32.

[ Bernarr MacFadden, writing editorially in his| own publication, Liberty, states the issue clearly when he says: It has been estimated that there are \ = SIZES 14 TO 20 Scarfs . . .

We have been the Santa Claus for Euro- pean citizens about long enough. We should use our borrowed money to take care of our own people. With millions of our own . citizens on the charity list there is no reason for adding to governmental indebt- edness by supporting foreign citizens. It would be impossible to determine the exact number of foreigners who are being taken care of by the Government. But Con- gressman Leslie C. Arends from Illinois maintains that if we were to send back all the foreigners now on the dole in this country the State and Federal governments would save approximately two hundred mil- lion dollars a year. He believes, further, that every foreigner should be registered. He introduced a bill in the last session of Congtess which he expects to vigorously promote in the next session which calls for a tax on every for- eigner employed or doing business in this country. An unskilled laborer, in accord- ance with his plan would have to pay twenty-five dollars a year; a skilled laborer fifty dollars a year; scientific or profes- sional men a hurdred dollars a y ; and an alien would pay a hundred dollars for each place of business he operates. There is no reason why foreigners coming to this country should not pay something for the protection and privileges which are extended to them so liberally. Our citizens have to pay their share of the governmental expenses. And although foreigners would naturally be subject to the income and other taxes if they were prop- erty owners, they do not assume some of the responsibilities that are required of our citizens. Congressman Arends: maintains that the taxes he proposes on foreigners now secur- ing the advantages of our governmental system would add at least one hundred million dollars a year to our Treasury. But the most important feature of the bill is the saving that would result from shipping our foreign charity wards to their home countries. We are under no obligations to foreigners who come here. If they find our country offers them advantages superior to their own, they should be willing to pay something for this privilege. Furthermore, the registration of foreigners suggested in this new bill would make the detection of those who are here illegally less difficult. We can be sure there are States citizens in foreign lands who are being supported at governmental expense. Then why should we extend such favors? no United THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, MONDAY, DEC. 23, 1935.
