BUY and HOLD UNITED STATES INSURED ; e’ |legislature to introduce or support | four separate forms of taxation— 'plus a sales tax it there is no other way out.” | Nerland and Representative Frank Angerman, Essie R. Dale and War- ren Taylor—were guests and con- sultants to a roundtable discussion called by the Junior Chamber of Commerce for the purpose of public expression before the lawmakers depart for an extraordinary session of the legislature. Proposed bills to which the legis-' Iators gave ‘unanimous approval were all recommendations of the legislative committee of the Junior Chamber: PROPOSEL 1AXES Taxation measures the elected of-* ficials said they would support were: 1. A tax, in licensing form or otherwise, on all businesses operat- ing in Alaska, including those whose home offices are in the states. (This was applied especially to transpor- tation firms such as the major air- lines and steamship companies.) 2. A general-income tax, prob- ably based on 10 per cent of federal income taxes and, in the case of transient workers, computed and withheld from amounts earned within the Territory. 3. A general property tax, involv- ing property beyond the corporate limits of municipalities and limited by statute to two per cent. 4. A scaled tax on motor fuels with a local allocation clause for the improvement of streets and roads within cities and towns which are intégral parts of Territorial highway networks. Without exeeption, the legislators voiced disapproval of a retail sales tax “in prineiple” but all four quot- ed specifia instances wherein a tax of this type might be justified and necessary. AUXILIARY MEETING TONIGHT POSTPONED There will be no meeting of the American Légion Auxiliary tonight in the Dugout. This announcement was officlally made this forenoon. Condition of the streets on hills and elsewhere prevent members from attending the usual meeting. ————— Flexible Flier Sleds at Madsen’s.
