SENATE VOTES HALF MILLION
 TO BUY DEER
Part of Program of Self Sustaining Economy"
 for Alaska Natives

WASHINGTON, April 5. The Senate has approved, without record vote, proposal to appropri- ate half a million dollars for the purchase of white owned reindeer herds in Alaska.
 This is part of the program to establish 'self-sustaining economy" among the natives in Alaska.
 The item is an amendment to the Interior Departments appropriation bill.
 Senator McKellar objected to the proposal contending the Govern ment would be using money to buy reindeer it already owned and urged instead that the Senate approve the $5o,o00 House appropriation for in- vestigation of deer property pro- posed to be acquired under the Au- thorization Act approved last Sep tember.
 The Authorization Act appropria- tions totalled two million dollars.
 McKellar contended the whites claim ownership of at least 250,000 deer illegally.
 Chairman Thomas, of the Indian Affairs Committee. asserted that development of the reindeer indus try was one of the means of plac- ing the Eskimos and other Alaskan natives on self-supporting basis and said that $500,O00 probably would buy up all the white con- trolled reindeer in the Territory.

The regular spring term of Fed eral D strict Court will convene here on May 9, according to instruction to the Federal Clerks office from Judge George F. Alexander, who is now holding court in Ketchikan. No jury is being called
 U. s. Marshal William T. Ma honey, who has been in attendance at the court session in Ketchikan, returned to Juneau on the North Sea to attend to some business here and will return to Ketchikan on the same vessel. He reported the court party would be returning here about the last of April.
 Coming to Juneau, the Marshal brought four prisoners, who had been sentenced at Ketchikan-Joe Hershey, six months and $100 fine for assault and battery; Jim Os- walt, nine months for petit lar ceny; John Holvik, 12O days for drunk and disorderly conduct, and Willie Rusk, l25 days on statuatory charge.
 Going back to Ketchikan, the Marshal will take Alvin Merig Harry Elk and Charles Pierce for sentence for attempted jail break here last fall. Merig and Elk were originally convicted on a fish piracy count and Pierce for theft.
 Deputy Nate Hardy, who was in- jured during a tussle with a prison- er in Ketchikan, is much improved, Marshal Mahoney said, and expects to be back at his duties in few weeks.
 Notice of the spring term of the Federal Court was also received by H. B. LeFevre, President of the Ju- neau Bar Association At the meet ing of the Association last Satur- day noon, resolution was passed asking Judge Alexander to call term The reply received by Presi- dent LeFevre said that no panel of jurymen would be called but if any attorneys in Juneau had cases ready and were willing to go ahead with jurymen from Juneau, it would be satisfactory.

COLD TAX BILL AUTHOR STICKS
 TO GUNS TODAY
Senator Brunelle Visits in Juneau Upholds
 Debated Measure

M. E. 6. Brunelle, of Cordova, President of the Ala'kl Sena.o last term. and author of the gross gold tax bill. arrived in Juneau on the Yukon for a brief visit. still firm m his belief that the bill is right
 "A gross tax on goid is A.aska's only out as far as tax goes" said Brunelle. With this canncry trouble n Sent nct 3hoNlng Improvement, the gold tax moy rcslly have a
 bln tc sacw is value to the Ter rltory and it may save Ala ka1 finances.
 Ask7d regarding criticism adyanc- ei by small lode miners, Brunelie s5sed the exemption elause in the bill.
 -Es.erc IS an exemption provided fer in the bill of Sl0c00," he said "A man should not have any com plaint on that iten-he certainly ~ane expect 10 operate indefinitely at a Si0,000 loss.
 The only tax advisable and ef- fective.7 Brunelle continued, Is gross tax. In Alaska that tax money goes into roads and schools and builds up the industry. It takes il money that would otherwise leave the Territory. There are complaints. of course. No tax was ever popularly received. The Gross Gold tax is jus another nee cssary evil. And it may save Alaska"
 Brunelle is Chief Clerk for the Copper River and Northwestern Railway at Ccrdova. Regarding the expectation that the 190 mile long reed will close down with the mine next fall, Brunelle could add noth- nr to the rublisicd report to stock holders by the Kcnncco;t Copper Corporation
 Without an ore tonnage, such as copper, the road cannot operate 7 said BIunelle. "OF course it's blow 10 Cordova, but then theyll just have to get used to being town of seven or eight hundred for awhile and wait for more developments
 Brunelle said the district tapped by the railroad between Chitin9 and Cordova, appeared to hold little 1ronise. but p"aised Ire area be- tween Chitina and Mccarthy.
 "Trat is rich mineralized area in there" said E~un2lla "Kenrecot has a big molybdonUm prospect near Chitina. and there are a lot of gold prospects with promise near Me- Carthy--but then that area could be tapped easily enough from the Richardson Highway, although if the Government were willing good highway could he made cf the rail- road bed"
 Brunelle is guest at tbe Cast mean Hotel and will sail north to Cordova again on the Baranof next Friday.
