TAXES DESTUCTIVE 1f, after the war, Congress present destructive tax system, recovery will be small. lags in revamping our chances for business However, there is every indication that this is the plan. Here in Alaska, with the probability that our next Territorial Legislature will be one representative mainly of labor, indications are that further taxes will be levied on business in the Territory. Taxation, both Federal and Territorial, can take one of two courses. It can either “kill the goose that lays the golden eggs” hatch a few more geese If after the war our Federal tax system remains | at its present economy disrupting levels, and Terri- torial taxes follow the same line, many of our exist- ing industries are headed for the junk heap and worse yet, other industries will not be forthcoming If, on the other hand, the waste that always | TP ) acclimated. ashinglon I you stay in | too long,” y.

Under present tax rates, no business can build up reserves—capital for expansion, revision, improvements, growth Twenty rs ago the government took about 15 cents of every dollar of profit. It now takes three times as much plus a 90 peréent excess profits tax. Unemployment is averted when industry accumu- lates capital and expands, hiring more labor in order to further expand Under the present accumulate capital. The present tax system does nothing to encourage new enterprise. Special tax concessions should be made for a new enterprise for a limited number of years to give the business a start. Special concession should be made for capital that is reinvested in plant expansion and more jobs. system it is impossible to The Youthful Lawbreaker (New York Times) American youth has met the test of battle. It has shown courage and endured a hard -discipline. Yet its younger brothers and sisters, if FBI Director Hoover's figures are correct, show a worrisomely high rate of delinquency. As Mr. Hoover told a D. A. R. audience in this city recently, “13 per cent of all murderers arersted last year were under 21 years of age, as were 59 per cent of all robbers, 55 per cent of all burglars, 37 per cent of all thieves, 32 per cent of all rapists and 65 per cent of all car thieves." “More boys 17 years of age and more girls 18 years of age were arrested than in any other age group.” And arrests of girls last year were up 130 per cent over those of 1941, show an increase in youthful and juvenile crime. Some of this increase is no doubt due to war conditions. The same phenomenon was noted in England during the first two years of the present war. We may as well face the truth that war always tends to upset indictment of the warmakers. Nevertheless, the home, the scheol and the church have also failed when adolescents take to breaking the law. What are the reasons for this failire? What could we do differently, or what could we do that we are not now doing? How can we meet the war emergency?

One of the most active behind- the-scenes aperators for Tom Dewey continues to be charming, impressive Winthrop Aldrich, head of the Chase National Bank and member of the Rockefeller family. Aldrich has been calling in 2l sorts of people from all over the country to tell them about Dewey. He has concentrated especially on certain key newspaper publishers, and on leaders of the radio indus- try and of the motion-picture in- dustry. His general sales talk is to tell’ them how close he is to Dewey and to reassure them that they needn’t' have any misgivings about him. “You don’'t need to worry about this boy,” Aldrich told one caller.' “He's in good hands.

Harvey were to return to the States on the Pacific American Fisheries cannery tender Catherine D., which was expected to sail within a few days from Port Moeller where they had crashed. It was reported that both ‘the men were in good physical condition. They were to be ordered direct to Washington and assigned to duty in the headquarters of the Air Service témporarily. The other three planes, at Attu Island, were to continue on their globe flight, with Lowell H. Smith acting as com- mander. It was intended, according to announcement from Washing- ton, that Martin and Harvey would be sent across the Atlantic in time to meet the globe circlers and lead them home from Europe, thus giving the commander the post of honor which he lost by hard luck. The first baseball games of the season were played at the City Park the previous afternoon with the Elks defeating the American Legion by a score of 8 to 6. The Alaska Juneau team trimmed the Moose nine, 17 to 3. On her first tourist run of the 1924 season, the Admiral Rogers arrived in port with ten round trippers from Seattle. Also arriving in port for the first time this year was the CPR steamer Princess Royal, making | her initial trip from Vancouver to Skagway. Only trace of-dack Young, escaped prisoner from the local Federal | jail, had been reported when a theft of a small quantity of food and some matches frém a roadside camp of two small bgys was made.
