 TOP IN RELIEF FUND CAMPAIGN
Gov Riggs Says Territory s Fund for European Relief
 Will Reach $l2,O00.

Eleven hundred dollars were added to Alaska's donation to the fund for starving European children by con- tributions received from the States by Gov. Thomas Riggs. This amount represents the contributions from four companies doing business in Al r aska. gs.,.-.s,,.,-
 The Northern Commercial Company . headed the list with $500. The Cop per River and Northwestern Railroad and the Alaska Steamship Company gave $250 each, and the White Pass and Yukon Route sent $100. Thes" contributions are to be prorated among the towns where the concerns have offices.
 It is virtually sure that the Alaska fund will reach at least Sl2,O0O, ac- .cording to Gov. Riggs, who said that approximately $10,000 has already been subscribed and many outlying districts have not yet been heard from. The First Divisions share in the amount is approximately s5,00G and this will be increased before the end of the drive next Monday. < The First District, under Districs Chairman George T. Jackson, has made the best showing up to the present time, practically s2,000 being reported without including the local contributions Of all communities reporting, Fmter Bay, with five men, has subscribed the, highest per capita, giving a total of $50, or ten dollars for each subscriber. The First Dis trict'ss total subscription will prob ably be in excess, according to Coy Riggs.
 :, Practically every cent turned over :. to the Alaska Committee will be available for relief of European child ren, according to Gov. Riggs. The expenses of the committee will hard ly exceed $100, the expense being confined to telegrams, it beng nec- essary to telegraph all publicity mat ter and instructions to outlying dis tricts as it was impossible to get this matter to them in any other way.

DELAY FEDERAL
TAX FOR TARIFF
ADJUSTMENTS
LongtUorth Loses In
Fight to Change
Program.

Washington. May 3. - UNITED
Press. .)-Business men will not
know until the latter part of this
year what their federal taxes for
1921 will be.
Although this uncertainty is one
Of the factors of the business de-
preston, it was definitely deter
mined today that Notwithstanding
Secretary of the Treasury Melons
letter, congress will adhere to its
tariff first" program with taxation
revision to follow.
Representative Nicholas Long.
worth, Ohio, Republican leader o1
the movement to reform taxes first
in order to speed business stabiliza.
ton, admitted that he has lost.
However, Longworth urged bust
ness interests to discount the de.
lay" and to begin to proceed i'm
mediately upon assumption that ap
plicable to 1921 business the exces:
profits tax will be repealed ant
other tax throttles on business mod
flied.
Other developments Of the taxa
ton program today were.
l. Increased belief that the sale
tax is dead before it starts"
2. Plans for a hard fight to re
peal the transportation taxes de
spite Secretary Melons statemen
that it cannot be repealed wit
safety.
3. Growing opinion among lead
ers that the Mellon plan of increas
ing income taxes on small business
and reducing high surtaxes will &
through.
Secretary Melons letter wa
the final nail in the coffin of tt
sales tax" said Longworth. "Aftt
the presidents expression clear
unfavorable to it and Melons r
fusal to recommend it, it might
well be buried now"
