{ RNEST PATTY
CONDEMNS TAX
ON GOLD TAX {
Prominent Interior Man
Feels Tax Origin Is
Misunderstood

Declaring that the 3 percent tax
on gold in Alaska is arousing i'll
feeling among mine operators the
length of the Yukon, Ernest M. Pat
ty. well known Interior mine oper-
ator and former Dean of Men at
the University of Alaska, today con-
demned that tax in the lobby OF
the Gastineau Hotel.
TT is tax on courage" said Pat
ty. The small operator, starting
out, and facing a deficit at the end
of the season in many instances
cannot afford to work under this
tax.
There has been a serious misun-
Outstanding of the origin of the tax, .
continued Patty. when the tax
was asked for Alaska in the Legis-
lature, it was patterned after the
l2A per cent tax on gold levied in
Yukon Territory, but what was not
taken into consideration is the fact
that the Canadian tax was levied
with the price Of gold arbitrarily
fixed at SIS an ounce-not $50
which, when per cent tax is APP
piled to production, in effect re-
suits in approximately twice as
great tax burden"
Dean" Patty, as he is known to
the majority of Alaska, suggested
that the solution should lie in an
ability to pay basis of taxation.
He further explained that in his ex-
perience, he has found many large
operators who profit by the tax
with their large outputs, but never
a small operator who did not find
the tax anything but an unreason-
able burden.
| Patty is Vice Pre- / d e mt and
Manager of Gold Placers, operating
on Gold Greek. and President and
Manager of Alluvial Gold, with an
other dredge on Woodchoppey Greek
both creeks located between Forty
Mile and Circle.
Gold Placers have been operat-
ing on Cold Creek since 1886, with
Ia four foot steel dredge with pom
toon hull and on the Woodchopper
I Greek holdings, a sister dredge to
the Gold Greek outfit was put in
this spring.
I A very good season" was exper-
fenced on both creeks, each dredge
moving between $500 and 5000
yards of dirt a day. An average
lof 40 men are employed for the
season on each creek.
/ Cold water thawing is used, with
bedrock II feet deep on the average
under 10 feet Of overburden. A
Z cold Creek. the dredge operated
100 days and the dredge at Wood
chopper Greek, 80 days Worl
ceased in late October.
Mr.. Patty, with Mrs. Patty ant
two sons, Dale and Stanton, arriv
ed in Juneau yesterday Afternoon
. via PAA plane from Fairbanks. The,
will spend several weeks in Seattl
and will visit another son, Ernest
! Jr.fi who is attending school at 81
