WASHINGTON, May 3. - De- sterilization of gold has become a fact. It has enabled the Federal re- serve banks to plank down $1 ,400,- 100000 roll at the cashiers windows, all ready and waiting for reliable borrowers-if they want it.
 Maybe you have wondered, as I did. whether that was sort of sleight of hand trick, to produce nearly billion and a half dollars where none was apparent before.
 Fact is, Sterilization and de- sterilization of gold is a trick. It's a gadget invented by the U. s. treasury and federal reserve sys- tenn to meet some of the strange new money problems created by the 1929 depression.
 That depression forced all na- tions of the world = including America-off the gold standard.
 But gold standard or no gold

AIR SERVICE IS
 CELEBRATED AT
 BANQUET HERE
Hope for Plane Service Be. tween Juneau and Se-
 attle Is Voiced

Forty-six Juneau business men, postal officials, Pacific Alaska Air ways air and ground staff members, and the mayors of Fairbanks and Juneau respectively, gathered at a banquet in Percy's Cafe last night to celebrate the joining-by-air mail of Fairbanks and Juneau. The affair was sponsored by the Juneau Cham Der of Commerce.
 In expressing the Postoffice De- partment's pleasure over the new air mail route, John E. Lamiell, Dir ector of the International Postai Service said: "Harllee Branch (Sec- ond Assistant Postmaster GeneraD is sold on Alaska It gives our De- partment great pleasure to give you six cents air mail the same as in the States"
 Said Mayor Leslie Nerland, of Fairbanks; This brings us of the Interior within five hours of Jun eau instead of five days. The new system is undoubtedly of more bene- fit to us than to Juneau-but when Juneau wants our help in obtaining airmail-we right with you"
 Juneau's Mayor Harry I. Lucas shook hands across the table with Mayor, Nerland in congratulations symbolizing the greater proximity of the two cities.
 DJ Years Ago
 Robert Sheldon, President of the Fairbanks Chamber of Commerce and Postmaster there. recalled how forty years ago he had taken part in carrying mail by boat to island points near Juneau.
 Mail was not certain in those days" Sheldon said, Tn 1908 I went to Fairbanks and carried mail by dogs, horses and foot. In 1923 the railroad came. We thought that was the last thing-but now we have that greatest of all communications the airplane.'
 s. E. Robbins, PA pilot, promised "the most efficient and dependable service possible in speaking on be- half of the flight personnel.
 Highlight speaker was Fred Milli- gan, ex-dog musher, now manager of the PAA airport at Fairbanks.
 Thumbs Nose
 T get kick out of thumbing my nose at the boys breaking trail un- derneath me when I'm flyingi" Mill igan said, summing up his pleasure at progress from dogs to planes
 Each speaker paid verbal homage to the coming of the new-and-swift- CT air mail communication between the Interior and the Coast, but one speaker summed up what all touch ed lightly on.
 "Fairbanks-Juneau mail now-is good beginning" the speaker said. That is just the beginning. Next, mail by air from Juneau to Seattle. D
 Guests present were John Lamiell, Director of the International Postal Service. Mayor Leslie Nerland of

Supreme Court Challenged
 Again by Presidents Bid
 For New Taxation Proposal
Levy on Federdl, State, Municipal Securities. Also Salaries of State, Local Job Holders Raises Several Points, But Government Must Hdve New Source of Revenue
By PRESTON GROVER

WASHINGTON, May 3. = When the President proposed taxing Fed eral, State and Municipal securities and the salaries of state and local job holders, he challenged the Su- preme Court anew to reverse it. self, but the court for years has been reversing itself piecemeal in this direction and gives some pro- mise of moving faster.
 John Marshall ruled that Mary land could not tax national banks, a ruling which set the precedent for the Supreme Court for many years-that one branch of govern ment could not tax the agencies of another branch.
 For years state-rights lawyers have argued that if the Federal Government could tax income from state securities and tax the pay of local officials it could destroy state and local government simply by imposing crushing taxes.
 Nevertheless liberal members of the Court have indicated for some time that they favored trimming the broad shelter of exemption, both from Federal and State taxes. They never have gone quite so far as the President proposes. However, with few exceptions, the Court has followed the trend far enough to permit taxing of branches of the government which are not strictly governmental.

Ireasury's De-Sterilisation
 Of Gold; What Does 1t Mean?

standard, America still seemed the safest place in the world for money. A steady flow of money to America forced additional gold de- posits into American vaults. And every bit of gold currency that arrived from abroad went into the U. s. treasury because the law says no private individual may own gold in America. Result: the treas ury today has $12,0O0 100000 worth half the worlds supply.

EXEMPTIONS ATTACKED

In several recent cases the Fed eral Internal Revenue Bureau has attacked some of the exemptions claimed by state officials. The Reve- nue Bureau has prosecuted an in- come tax claim against salaries of officials of the Port of New York Authority with such vigor that 25 states have intervened in an appeal to the Supreme Court.
 Just who would be hurt most by a decision permitting the Federal Government to tax the states and the states to tax the Federal Gov ernment is anybody's guess. In the Port of New York case the Federal Government contends that the port authority is building tunnels and bridges so fast that the ferry busi- ness is being destroyed That is wiping out a source of revenue for the Federal Government and it is claiming a right to tax the port authority in lieu of it.
 Yet out west the Federal Govern ment owns forest land and public domain occupying half the area of some states. If the states attempted to tax those holdings the squawk of Federal Administrators would echo among the mountain peaks for generations. In early days the states urged that argument = and the Federal howlers won out.

TO TAX OR NOT TO TAX

Of course it all grows out of the desperate hunt of the Federal Gov ernment for tax revenue. The states, meantime, are no less jealous, and the variety of decisions is amazing.
 The Supreme Court has held that:
 The salary of a New York City water commissioner is exempt from taxation because supplying water is an integral part of government But salaries of officials of the munich pally owned Boston elevated rail- way can be taxed.
 The Federal Government was able to collect it's tax on cigarets bought by the Massachusetts State Hospital but lost out in suit for taxes on motorcycles sold to the Westfield, Mass, Police Depart ment.
