Gaas That is a lot of money to get out of Alaska. - The task is indeed unprecedented. ! Lawlessness in Ketchikan (Ketchikan News) Ketchikan is a home town. It has less lawless- ness than most Alaskan towns. We want to keep ul that way. kg But we can't do so if we allow enforcement of- ficials to be “soft” with bootlegger and gambling racketeers A statement from the Ministerial Association on the front page today indicates that there has been 1 serious miscarriage of justice. The accusations made TR 7 should be investigated by proper authorities at once. TS A BIG JOB Procrastination means for worse things to follow.

One thing was obvious above all else in the short extraordinary session that ended Saturday. Tax meas- ures had been called for, several were introduced, but one, the income tax measure HAD to be passed. Even’ in discussions of this measure, it was apparent that few, if any knew exactly how much revenue it would provide, how much it would cost to administer. In spite of the really tremendous task before the Legislature during the next 58 days, there should be no need for the frenzied rush to slam through a pro- m, so obvious during the last two weeks. In his message yesterday Gov. Gruening suggested that it was the duty of t Legislature to investigate expenditures of Territorial agencies.
