NON RESIDENT TAX ON FISHERMEN UP IN FEDERAL COURT Residents of Alaska can't hoid a “candiefish” to non-resident fis ermen who pull in salmon from Bristol Bay, but they're improving, according to Oscar Anderson, branch agent and secretary-trea- surer of the Alaska Fisherman's Union. Anderson brought this out in testimony while appearing as a witness in federal court today on a suit brought by his union against the $50 license fee charged non- passed by the 19th Territorial Legislature.

For the past two weeks the Juneau School children have been selling tickets for this engagement and it looks like there will be a record attend- ance in view of their successful sale;manship. Th? tickets are good it any performance during the three day. ‘The Juneau Parent-Teachers Association, sponsors of this drive, will receive half of the sale of tic- kets sold by the school children to app'y to the $500 scholarship fund to be given to an outstanding Ju- neau High School graduate. Offering something distinctively new to film-goers, RKO Radio’s “The Boy With Green Hair” stars Pat O'Brien along with Robert Ryen, Barbara Hale and 11-year- old Dean Stockwell in a stimulat- * ing piece of film fare, produced in colcr by Technicolor. Young Stockwell has the title role as an American war orphan who, unaware his parents were killed in a bomb raid in London, comes to live with “Gramps,” an elderiy distant relative who used to be a circus performer. Happy and secure for the first time, the youngster gets a severe emotional shock when he accidentally learns of his parents’ deaths. The following morning he wakes up to find his hair has turned a brilliant green. The phenomenon disturbs everyone in town and arouses the hostility of his school- mates, but in the picture’s most unusual sequence he learns the rea- n for it: other war orphans want to lead a juvenile crusade against war, using his green hair to attract attention. Fired with the idea, he sets out but finds public opinion solidly against him—a situation that leads to the ironic and thought- prevoking elimax.

F. Lytle Co. and Green Construction Company of Des Moines, Iowa, yesterday wasl awarded the contract for grading and surfacing 2,63 miles of the An-| chorage-Lake Spenard road. ‘The bid-opening was in the office of the Alaska Road Commission, which let the contract to Lytle and ) Green on their bid of $195297. The | only other bidder was S. Birch and | Sons, Seattle. A combined bid by two Fairbanks | firms, Williams Equipment Com- pany and Reed and Martin, was low for road work near Fairbanks.| This was $389,713.10 for grading| and surfacing 4.37 miles of the| Fairbanks-College road and 13‘1[ miles of the Steese Highway. A com- bined bid by S. Birch and Sons and the Morrison-Knudsen Company | was the only other estimate sub-| mitted. This was for $397,751. I HOSPITAL NOTES Andrew McDonald of Tulsequah,] Joe Steffen, and Mrs. Frank Mc-( Gill were admitted to St. Ann’s Hospital yesterday. Mrs. Edward Dietz, Mrs. Val Poor, Terry Mc- Laughlin, and Paul Nannauck were dismissed. William Thomas of Juneau was mdmlxtted to the Government Hos- | vital those making their homes here, and $50 for those from outside. The union terms the tax “discrimina- | tory.” | The fee has been withheld by the Alaska' Salmon Industry member canneries from paychecks, at the union’s request pending outcome of the present test case. William L. Paul, Jr., attorney for the union, questioned Anderson at length involving term of employ- ment, transportation, and methods of payment. Long discussion was| taken up by the question if the men used alcohol or got in fights. An- swer to this was “very rarely,” and that fellow-fishermen disciplined drinkers and if trouble were caused, the man involved would be fired and sent outside immediately. Observers believed this line of questioning was pursued to bring out that non-residents did not take up time of local police officers. Other questioning brought from An- derson that the labor commissioner was not used for collection of wages, for that they never brought cars in to use the roads. Anderson estimated that approxi- mately 500 resident and 1,000 non- resident fishermen worked in Bris- tol Bay, and in Southeast Alaska the average was about man for man. He said that over a 10-year per- iod, fishermen have averaged about $2,500 per season on the Bay, for from 22 to 23'days actual fishing, and “run money” and other pay- ments for extra off-season work. Representing the Territory in the dispute are J. Gerald Williams, attorney general and John Dimond, his assistant. After a short cross examination by Dimond, the court recessed until this afternoon, when it was sched- uled to have a government witness on the stand, representing the tax commission.
