Exemption Allowed to Head of F amily in Making
 Annual Statement

A head of a family is defined by incomt tax regulations as "an in dividual who actually supports and maintains in one houeehcld one or more persons who are closely con nected it with him by blod rela- tionship, relationship by marriage, or by adoption, and whose right to exercise family control and provide for these dependent individuals is based upon some moral or legal obligations. The exemption allow ed a head of a famiiy is $500. The phrase in one household" may be interpreted as meaning the tax
 payers personal residence, an apartment, rooms in a boarding house, hotel etc
 Under certain ,cumstances 1t is not necessary that the taxpayer and his dependents I've under one roof during the entire taxable year in order that the taxpayer may be allowed the exempt'on. If the
 common home is maintained and the parent is away on business or child is away at school or on a visit, the exemption is allowable.
 Moreover, if a parent is obliged
 to maintain his dependent children
 with relatives or in boarding house , while he lives elsewhere, the ex- emption still applies If, however, without necessity. the dependent
 makes his home elsewhere, the ben
 efactor is not the head of family. The same rule is applicable to the term living together" in the case
 of a husband and wife. If occas-
 ionally and temporarily the hus- band is away on business or the wife on a visit, the common home being
 maintained, the $2,50G exemption still applies. The unavoidable ab- sence of husband CT wife at san-
 atorium does not preclude this ex- emption. But if tine husband con- tinuously makes lis home at one
 place and the wife at another, they are not living together within the meaning of the revenue act.

in when the Whites had spoiled their whaling and the reindeer had not yet been introduced. It is essential that they have either reindeer or caribou hides, at least, for clothing in order to survive the cold win ters," Collins declared.
 If the reindeer should fail, many of the natives are now too lazy to fish. They should cut down on the use of reindeer for dog food and fox bait; that would help greatly but not unless the wolf .depreda- tions are checked"

are around" Warden Collins de- clared.
 Best Solution
 Tn that, I believe, lies the best solution to the wolf problem, said Colbps. "Of course, the natives, as a whole, being primarily a sea- faring people, would rather lose their deer than forsake the coast to close herd them. But it would seem feasible, and I recommend it as the best possible check, to have follow the herds, camping with them, and keeping them together, protecting the interests of the whole, while the others remain on the coast to fish"
 Warden Collins, in company with Harlan Gubser, predatory animal expert who returned to Juneau a few weeks ago from an inspection of wolf depredations just south of the Arctic. went first to the Noatak River region. There, early in Mo- vember, they witnessed the roundup of the Noatak herd, going next to the Kivalina roundup. They found the Kivalina camp to be exception ally well-organized. being run like an army camp, each man having his duty to perform. Of all the larger herds, they found that at Kivalina to be in the best condition, and to have suffered least from wolves, but even there, the people were able to round up only 15,000 out of an estimated 3500O head, and that only after securing the whole country thoroughly, even lap ping over onto the Pt Hope and Noatak ranges.
 Trapping Demonstrations
 At both Noatak and Kivalina, MT. Gubser gave wolf trapping demon strations, while on his entire trip MT Collins talked to the people on game preservation and restrictions, and found them all very receptive as they are vitally interested in pre- serving their fur resources
 Fur trapping means much to them" the Warden declared, be cause only by selling their fur can the natives get flour and tea and other foods introduced by white men, and which the younger natives consider essential, though the older ones are perfectly willing to get along on a fish, blubber, ind meat diet. I believe I was the first game officer ever to have contacted most of them"
 Mr. Gubser and MT Collins next went to Kotzebue where they sep arated, Collins flying to Point Lay. When landed at Point Lay it was the last time saw the sun on my trip" said Warden Collins. We timed the flight so as to arrive
The Daily Alaska empire., 1937-02-11

there just at noon, on November 19 when the sun appeared on the hori- zon for just few minutes for the last time before the Arctic Win ter. Had we not got there just at noon, it would have been too dark to have landed, on what l believe was the latest flight ever made that far north. The pilot immediately took off again to return to Kotzebue, leaving me there to go the rest of my route by dog team.
 At Village Founding
 MY going to Point Lay was really quite an event to me, as l had been there before aboard a sailing sh'p in 1928, and was in on the founding of the village. At that time, l was with Fred Forslund when he stopped off there to trade and built the trading post that grew into Point Lay, which under his efforts has become the finest village on that coast, and the most prosperous, neat and clean. When l had left the trader ind 1928 I told him I would return. travelling by dog team, and my statement was fulfilled. was very well received there. l met my old friend again and was spectator at dances held for me"
 Farthur Travelling
 From Point Lay, Warden Collins went to Icy Cape, then to Vain wright. Natives reported finding reindeer slain by wolves lying all through that country Wainwright is one of the largest villages in the Arctic, containing four stores and a large school and with popula- ton of about 300 Eskimos. At Vain wright there being no wood on the beach. the natives built their corral for the roundup from ice blocks. A tremendous amount o1 labor being involved. At the round- up there, 170OO deer were counted, but only after the whole country eide had been thoroughly secured v the Warden said. "The natives there and over most of the Arctic coast, now drive the deer by dog team, where they used to use sled deer And, in that lies another oppor- tunity to lessen the drain on the deer herds" he declared.
 "The large number of dogs used by the natives are fed very large amount of deer meat each year. If the natives would return to the use of teams of sled deer, the herds would be subject to much less but chering. A dog team consumes a deer a day. Besides, the reindeer's being accustomed to the dogs makes it easier for wolves to approach them"
 Goes to Barrow
 After talking to the natives at Wainwright and instructing them in wolf trapping, Collins mushed to Point Barrow, making the trip in three days, despite storms, travelling on the ice along the coast, and searching for wolf sign along the way "The natives in that district have exceptionally fine dog teams" declared Collins, "and are them selves extraordinarily en Id urin g mushers. It is fairly common for them to cover the hundred miles from Wainwright to Point Barrow in a single day, in the spring, and return the next day"
 At Point. Barrow. Collins found the dismantled, ill-fated Wiley Post Will Rogers plane, much in demand for souvenirs. The natives were al the time rounding up their deer at the corrals, sixty miles south of
