FOREST SERVICE REGULATIONS
 CHANGED

The forest service is calling at tention 10 a new regulation issued by the secretary of agriculture which should be of very great interest to the many concerns that have con structed large industrial plants on the national forests of Alaska. It provides means by which such concerns may secure title to the lands occupied by their plants and now held under special use permits from the forest service
 The test of the regulation, which became effective April 1, 1921, is as follows:
 "Regulation L-39. Any individual, firm or corporation which, under au- thority of a special use permit, has contracted upon national forest lands within the territory of Alaska. per manent and substantial improvements for purposes of trade. manufacture. or other productive industry, with reasonable prospects of the cstab- Iishment of permanent industry, may apply for the elimination from the national forests of the lands so occupied in order that such lands may be entered by the applicant un- der the provisions of Section 10 of the act of May II. 1898 C3O Stat. 4l3). If, upon investigation, it is determined by the secretary of agri. culture that permanent and substan- tial improvements designed for trade, manufacture or other productive in. dustry. exceeding in value the es- timated value of the lands for na- tional forest purposes, have. in fact, been lawfully constructed. with req sonable prospects of establishing permanent industry, the elimination from the national forests of the lands so occupied, not exceeding a total of eighty acres in any single area, will be recommended"
 SeCtioD 10 of the act of May II, 1898 mentioned in the regulation, Is commonly known as the trade and manufacturing site law of Alaska. 1t provides that improved public lands used for the purposes of trade, manufacture, and other productive in dustry may be purchased in units not exceeding so acres at the rate of
The Cordova daily times., 1921-09-26

$250 per acre. This law is not ap- pliCable to national forest lands. and
 in order to permit industries which appear to be permanent and have heavy investments on the national forests to make application for pur- chase under this act. the secretary of agriculture is willing to recommend that lands so used and improved be eliminated from the national forests which restores them to the status of public lands. Applications for pur. chase may then be made to the land office in the usual way
 Applications for such elimnatiOns should be made to the district forest CT at Juneau. forest supervisor at Ketchikan, or forest supervisor at Cordova. Each application should show by map or written description the approximate boundaries of the area desired, and also contain a statement of the character and cost value of Improvements. The area and boundaries of the tract that can be consistently recommended under the regulation will be determined after a field examination by the forest service The special provisions of the trade and manufacturing site law should he thoroughly understood be- fore applications for elimination are made to the forest service
 The importance of this regulation can be gained from the fact that fifty-fve salmon packing plants alone are now under permits on the na- tional forests. and many of them are doubtless within the intent of it's provisions
 Forest service officials point out that agricultural lands in the national forests have long been subject to entry and patent, and the purpose of this regulation is to offer the same inducements to the development of industrial projects as Is offered to agricultural development.

THE CURIOUS NAVAL MIND

TO the average citizen who oos the bills and who is
called on to do the fighting and the dying when his country
is threatened the refusal of the Navy General Board to con-
slider naval holiday to approve OF delay OF SIX
months order give experts time to determine the lesson
of the late war; seems folly indeed
Great Britain may the building OF dreadnoughts it
appears but the United States Britain says the plead
ers for great navy ceased building because OF economic
conditions. This is pure and unaduterated bunk. Any
one who has any acquaintance whatever with naval history
knows that if the leaders Of Great Britain deemed essen
tia for the safety of the empire to continue building great
and costly ships, the money would be forthcoming.
The attitude the board the attitude of who make
business of preparing for They want all the ama-
ment they can get If they about to ofhcate at
duel they would probably for pistols for each
principal instead of one.--Dearborn Independent.

No matter what legal punishment follows, the teaching

INCOME TAX FACTS
YOU SHOULD KNOW

Frequent inquiries are received by
collectors of internal revenue from
storekeepers and other business men
as to whether the taxpayer in business
for himself may deduct IRON his gross
earnings an amount of salary paid to
himself Wages or salary drawn by
taxpayer iron his own business are
more in the nature OF charge out OF
potts than a charge against profits.
If deductible they would merely be
added to his income and the effect
would be to take money out OF one
pocket and put 1t in another. There
fore. claims for such deductions are
not allowable.
Salaries paid to minor children
employed in the conduct OF q tax
payers business are not allowable
deductions. If, however, son or
daughter has attained majority, or is
allowed free use of their earnings
without restriction, reasonable
amount paid as compensation may be
claimed.
A farmer who employs a man to as
sist in the operation oil his farm may
deduct from gross income the amount
paid for such services. Likewise, il
he employs a woman whose entire
time is occupied in taking care of the
milk, cream, butter, and churns, or J.
her services are. devoted entirely &c
the preparation and serving of meal:
furnished farm laborers and in caring
! for their rooms, the compensation
paid her is an allowable deduction
If, however, she is employed solel,
in caring for the farmers own house
hold no deduction can be made.
In arriving at net income upon which
the tax is assessed, deductions may b,
made for ordinary and necessary bust
ness expenses. The revenue. &C
specifically prohibits the deduction
of personal, family, or living expenses
Such expenses include rent for home
wages of servants, cost of food ant
cothing for the family, education o
children, "and all items connected
with the maintenance, well-being, an
pleasure of the taxpayer and hi
family"
