COMMUNICATION Editor Empire: . Look over the list of people who testified in Washington in favor of Statehood and youwll find some reason why ieveryone of them did so. ! They either want to be Senators, | | judges or governor. They want something out of the state. Also check the' testimony. One witness who said he had bem in 'Alaska 32 yenrs said that every real Alaskan “wants state- hood.” I have been in Alaska over fifty years, and I agree that no one is against statehood when the time comes and we get an |enabling act that will make it pos- \sible to support statehood. i But I don't want taxes increased to such a point that my family will have to sell out and go south. Mrs, Hermann said that she only paid $60 in tdxes this year. She {also was designated as a tax ex- ‘pert How does she figure her tueswhflepnldonlyseotn taxes? She has an income as an attorney and an income from ap- artments in her house and also roomers. She must be an expert to have paid only $60. Also, what about her trips east for her var- jous organizations, aren’t those ad- ded to incomes? This $60 would in- iclude her business license tax of $25 and her $5 School Tax and {10% of her Federal Income Tax. {What about her license as an ap- artment house owner? = Or does that count? Another witness said that he didn’t know a single World War II veteran who didn’t want statehood. That is covering & lot of Terri- tory. better deal from the State than !they did out of Stanley McCutch- eon’s company—that still owed $22,000 to the Veterans Tax fund two years after “the tax was over, \bey can’t expect much. ‘The rest ifi“‘ paid our Veterans Tax. He 't pay his, but he went back to Washingtop to ask for Statehood. Have any of the Empire readers hurd Bob Druxman? He i5 a id War II veteran and he saidy M vo(ed for Statehood once, but he wouldn’t have it under the present bill if they gave it to him on a silver platter. I hope people are analyzing some of the things the witnesses have said back in Washington. If they are, they will see h most of the ' testimony and I don't think| thz will believe it anymore than | P I do. s It is easy to make a lot of gen- eral statements about statehood and how little it is going to cost and how we would rather live on hmnlw than steak to pay for state- 1 gm peeple in Washing- Mh not to be- llue are talking for all of us. ey Americans use about 2 dozen elec- tric light bulbs per capita every year.
