Shoe factori clothing fac- tories and a lot of other m(lu,\txmll plants have been built there. H Before 1948, Puerto Rico had her; agricultural reso! and a vast supply of cheap While these Lor. ment, their attractions did not off- set the territory's tax program. Development began as soon as taxes were modified to favor new industry, and development has continued at a rapid pace. Alaska doesn’t have Puerto Ri- co's supply of cheap labor, but it does have a variety of raw ma- terials and a vast potential of cheap power. In spite of these, however, industrial development in Alaska has lagged ard even dwin- led during the past two or three decades. The Alaska legislature and seg- ments -of Congress that are hon- estly interested in the develop- ment of Alaska might well study the Puerto Rico Act. That Act says, in its statement of motives: “It is an unavoidable| duty of our Government to pro- mote the industrial development of the country in order to raise the standard of living of the people of Puerto Rico and to give af sound foundation to its economy.| “In order to insure the most effective development of the m»um-' sary industrialization, so as fo lay a solid foundation for Puerto Rican economy, it is necessary to give to all new industries as well as to some of the industries already es- tablished and which have a po- tentiality for expansion because they have not yet reached 1119er full development, the greatest pos- sible encouragement by granting them tax exemptions subject (o the fulfillment of certain condi- tions.” | Specific exemptions are given to 42 industries, including assembly| plants, canned products and many | other food products, motion pic-| | tures, furniture, footwe: paper | products, tin containers, toys, | glassware and dozens of others. Inj addition, other new industries may | also be granted exemptions if they turn out products on a commer cial scale that have not previou 11y heen produced in the territory.! With the exemption, a new in- dustry- gets the following guaran- tee, written into. the Act: “In order that the encourage- ment tendered by this Act in the form of tax exemption for the pro- motion of the industrial develop- ment of Puerto Rico may be an incentive, having a real and un- mistakably sure basis, the Legisla- Part of her time, with her young clares that it considers all tax | may have THE DAILY ALASKA EMPILKE—-JUNEAU, ALASKA cau feachers wored by 7 Manahan, Alaska Steam Execufive, Visits Home Town ; This is old-home week fc J.
