HARDING RULES FOR TERRITORY
 IN TAX ACTION
Upholds Nonresident Trol-
 lers Tax in Dismissing Freeman Suit

In an opinion handed down here last Monday upholding the Alas ka nonresident trollers' tax, Judge Justin w. Harding dismissed the suit of Wood Freeman, Seattle troller, against the Territory to prevent the collection of the $250 license tax, declaring that the plaintiff had not proved his con- tention that the tax is prohibi- tory.
 This case has been pending since the summer of 1929 and has been before the Circuit Court Of Appeals. which declined to sustain Judge Harding in a ruling on a demurrer that sustained the val idity of the tax H. L. Faulkner, who represented Freeman here, an- nounced an appeal would be ta- ken again.
 The case was tried several weeks ago as to certain issues of fact, chiefly bearing on Freeman's con- tention that the annual average earnings of a troller in Alaska did not exceed $500 and that, therefore, the $250 tax imposed by the Alaska Legislature was prohi- bitory and in contravenation oi the White Fisheries law.
 Testimony was offered by Free man to show his own earnings and that of other trollers in subStan- tiation of his contention, while the Territory represented by At torney General John Rustgard produced other witnesses to con tradict it.
 In his opinion, Judge Harding said: ''The Court cannot state in the absence of reliable statistics that there is any way in whicf the average earnings of a trolle- can be established. Such a sit uation does not, however, obviatt the necessity which rests upoi the plaintiff of maintaining hl allegations by competent teSti' mony The plaintiff has alleget a fact which, if proved, woulf invalidate a Territorial statute.
 He is not relieved of the re- j sponsibiNty of the situation whicf confronts him, nor can the cour presume facts in his favor. The Court cannot strike an aver age to determine the average mon etary return throughout the wholt district.
 "The plaintiff has failed to prove as a fact, that the average earn ings of trollers are such that th' tax imposed by the Legislature upon non-residents, in relation k the earnings, amounted to pro hibition of his right to fish il Alaskan waters"

the damage done by the fire that destroyed the Government hospital. The school there has been dis continued. Most of the pupils have been returned to their own villages 10 be enrolled in day schools. The remainder will be taken to the h. drstrial Training Institution at Ek- lutna.
 From Kanakanak, the two men turned back and proceeded to Sew ard Peninsula via Mountain Vil- lage, Hooper Bay. Hamilton, KotliK and St. Michael and Unalakleet. They visited Nome, White Noun tain and back to the Yukon to Kaltag. Galena, Kokrines, Tanana and thence to Fairbanks where several days were spent. They then dipped into the upper Yukon, touching at Circle, Fort Yukon and Beaver, returning to Fairbanks, thence to Copper Center, Valdez and by steamer to Cordova and back to headquarters here.
 Gets General View
 The purpose of the visit, MT. Gordon said. was to get general view of as many of the schools and different communities and people as possible. There was no time to study individual problems and no such study was either contemplated in advance or attempted. But a real glimpse of the institutions and types of people they are serving was obtained which, he added, will be of real value in the administra- tion of educational affairs and the working out of policies affecting that administration.
 Arriving here last Monday after noon, he plunged into the task of familiarizing himself with his en- tire organization, next years work and consideration of data upon which future programs will be at least partly based.
 Has Varied Experience
 MT. Gordon comes to his job here with a wide and varied experience and with unusual technical quallti- cations. His work has carried him into many parts of the world and involved the study of cultural problems engendered by the con flicts of races and differing civili- cations.
 He was a teacher in Japan three years in the American School where as many as IA differen racial groups were represented. Ht visited Korea and China, observing cultural influences and studying problems arising from racial con flicts. He returned to the United States leisurely by the way oi Europe, spending some time in in- vestigations.
 He spent sometime as an in- structor at the boys school al LaWrenceville, N. J., known as the prep school for Princeton Uni versity." and at the Friends Selec School in Philadelphia, Fisk Uni versity, Negro institution in Nash vile, Tenn.
 Attends Paris University
 Next came two years in France at the University of Paris, special izing in ethnology and French col onial administration. With thi
The Daily Alaska empire., 1932-07-13

came the opportunity of consider able travel in Morocco to observe the results of French penetration in that country.
 MT. Gordon then returned to the United States and entered Columbia University, continuing his work in ethnology and cultural studies. In this connection he did some work with the Commanche Indians of Oklahoma.
 His next assignment was with the Institute of Government Research, and his studies were among the Pueblo Indians of New Mexico He was engaged in that when the opportunity was offered him by the Indian Service to come to Alaska as Director of Education.
 No Panacea to Offer
 He is approaching his problems here without any fixed program, he said. He had no panacea to offer and until he has had time to survey the field intimately, does not pretend to know just what serious problems are to be er- eountered.
 ! Certain general principles, he said. will of course apply to the work. But even in them practical application will count for much, and a knowledge of conditions in the several communities and among the several races is necessary be- fore they can be made to fit ef- fectively
 MT. Gordon visited Hooper Bay reported seriously vaged last Spring by famine, following per iod of flood. So far as he could learn from the villagers there were no deaths from starvation. Tt Is true that there probably was some privation from hunger, and tht residents were weakened due te that cause" he added
 At the time he visited the com munity, the population was robusi and in good health. There ar' about POO residents, and 45 enrolled in the school The population wa camped along the shores of th' bay fishing and putting up foot for the coming winter. "These peo I ole, due to their isolated situation : and the natural geographical dls advantages of their location, un doubtedly lead precarious exist ence. Their homes are in dugout on an eminence above the genera level of the country, and these while habitable enough at this tim
 of the year, are probably damp I
