The story deals with the settling of four townships in Alabama by 340 French families, Napoleonic exiles who in 1817 arrived at Mobile on the ship MacDonough and made their headquarters in a small com- munity named “White Bluff.” A year later, with the community de- veloped into a thriving little village by their labors they re-named it and it is significant that they gave it not a French name, one that would recall their own native land, but an ancient Greek name, ‘“De- mopolis,” meaning “City of the People.” No stranger colonists ever pene- trated a wilderness. None had ever set foot in a plowed field until they found themselves pioneering the rugged interior of Alabama with ‘Unfaithfully Yours' Coming To 20th Century What orchestr wife of a dashing his ns when conductor suspects deserting his baton and board is the riotous situation in which Rex Harrison and Linda Darnell find themselves in Twen- tieth Century-Fox's hilarious, sur- prise comedy, “Unfaithfully Yours,” which opens at the 20th Century Theatre Sunday.

Hall SATURDAY-NOV. 3 Door Award-Games-Fish Pond O Offices in Alaska WASHINGTON, Nov. 3—(M®—The Air Force said yesterday that there is a “drastic cut being made” in| public information offices at all Air Force bases in Alaska as well as elsewhere throughout the United States. The information was supplied to the office of Delegate Bartlett (D- Alaska) in response to an inquiry about Alaskan reports that public information officers at the Elmen- dorf Air Force base in Alaska were ordered transferred to new assign- ments effective Nov. 5. The Air Force told Bartlett’s sec- retary that it is telegraphing Elmen- dorf to get detailed information on the effect of the reduction there. The Air Force spokesman indi- cated that the location and extent of curtailments in public informa- tion officers is being left to local nounced that Territorial. tax collec- | | tions up until September 1 of this year were 34 percent above collec- tions for the first eight months of 1950. The Income Tax alone fetched $3,412,326.27 into the Territorial cof- fers during the first eight months of this year, Mr. Mullaney reported. This was more than the income tax brought in during the whole of 1950. Total 1951 income tax collections by the Territory may well double those of 1950, which amounted to $3,302,077.76. While it is true that eight months is two-thirds of a year, it is probable that income tax collections to September represent something less than two-thirds of the year’s total. Tax withholdings for a portion of the Territory’s heaviest payroll period were not turned in by that date. And on top of that, the something new that has been added to Federal income tax rates will automatically commanding officers. or when further curtailments might be made.

Fhe Territorial Income Tax col- lections to September 1 amounted to about $26.50 per capita if you | count the civilians plus all military personnel in Alaska, and to around $31.50 if you count civilian popula- tion only. The, per capita figures will be increased by somewhere between 50 and 100 percent when the year’s final returns are count- ed. Whether you use Alaska’s civilian population or both civilian and mil- itary population in computing per capita tax payments depends, of course, on whether you are trying to arrive at a true taxation picture or an Alaska Development Board figure on taxes.

Economists of the Alaska Depart- ment of Agriculture reported quite recently, however, that food prices | in those same areas increased very little during the five-month per- liod May to September of this year. In Fairbanks, the Agriculture De- partment studies showed, the total cost of 42 commonly purchased | food and household items actually decreased slightly during the sum- mer. The same was also true of An- chorage. In Palmer, the report says, prices of the 42 items increased about 1.9 percent during the five- month span.
