Foreman of the grand jury was Duncan McKinnon of Wlangell, who took his job serieusly and stud- ied the Oregon Code, under which Alaska was then operating. The Grand Jury indicted quite a number of white men and Indian women who were living together illicitly and these people were hail- | ed before Judge MoAllister.

The pay raises are retro- | active to last July 1. There is one sad joker in these raises, however, and it has to ith the new income tax rates cted by the same Congress. ongress stalled along on the pay raise until the closing days of its session and the bill was not signed by President Truman until October 24. This means that many govern- ment workers ‘will not receive the retroactive part of their pay until after November 1. And November 1 is when the new federal income tax rates go into effect. According to a news dispatch from Washington, the Bureau of Internal Revenue has ruled that payments made after November 1 will be subject to the higher tax rate, even when those payments are partly for the period from July 1 to November 1. And federal employees in Alaska are doubly unfortunate. Their Al- aska income taxes are based en- tirely upon the amount of income tax they pay back to Uncle Sam, without regard to the retroactive status of the earnings. pa do |is | ada | national @ S 0 PAY CASH AND SA\E © l’AY CASH AND SAVE granted pay raises by Congress and | Wild Animals Loose |Travel Is Vocation 0f David Barclay In Juneau for an indefinite time David Barclay, 38, artist and writer, who says he came to Alaska “hoping to find paradise.” He came here after first covering all of the 48 states as well as much of Can- and Mexico, During 20 years of travels, Bar- | clay has covered a distance equiv- alent to ten times around the world, he estimated, and has visited 26 parks and 50 national monuments.
