|. Public Safety Director Daniel Casey
denied last night another application
by Norman Thomas, Socialist leader,
for q permit to make an open an
speech in Jersey City.
Mr.. Casey wrote the national chair
man Of the Socialist party: II must
again state to you that the protests of
thousands of our citizens against
your holding an open-air meeting
have continued. The attitude of our
citizens is still unmistakable, and I
do hereby deny your application. '''
"The demonstrations of our citizens
at public meetings which they have
held and are holding and the
investigation which have made of
all the circumstances pertinent to
your application convince me that to
grant the same will lead to serious
disturbance and disorderly assem-
blage, inevitably resulting in riot
Conference Suggested.
When Mr.. Thomas first applied for
a permit he specified Journal Square
as the place in which he would Ike
to speak. Mr.. Casey denied the ap-
plication on May 10. Mr.. Thomas
filed new application last Tuesday
In which he suggested a conference
with Mr.. Casey to decide the place
where a meeting could be held, Mr..
Thomas said either May "a or June Z
would be acceptable.
You will notice that I am not
insisting on Journal Square" MIR.
Thomas wrote Mr. Casey last Tues
day, but am insisting that the place
chosen shall not be so remote as prac-
tically TO make farce of the consti-
tutional right of free assemblage and
free speech in Jersey City"
Mr.. Thomas had been escorted"
from Journal Square by police on
April 80 when he attempted to make
a speech without permit
Aid Offered for Test.
In denying Mr. Thomas latest ap-
plication Mr.. Casey wrote:
Your attorneys have. prior to your
letter to me OF May II, 1888, given
notice that an application would be
made to our Supreme Court for writ
to test my refusal of May 10. 1888, to
issue you permit for outdoor meet
ings =, You did not proceed
with that application
Il again conclude this refusal with
my statement that I will be glad to
cooperate with you in every way pos
sible should you desire to test the
legality of my refusal. SO that the
matter may be determined through
proper legal channels"

Modernizing Alaska Mail Service
Fairbanks News-Miner)


 Bids submitted to the postal department for star route mail services in Alaska for the fiscal of 1889, 1940 and 1941 reveal remarkable revolution in the of carrying interior Alaska mails since the advent of the commercial mail service in the territory Is years ago When Carl Ben Eielson flew the first Alaska lairmal from Fairbanks to the Kuskokwim every Interior Alaska star route covered by dog teams, pack horses steamboats and few motor car and motor boat routes
 Now, aside from power boat steamboat service in summer, the airplanes are sweeping the deck in their bids for contracts. Autos carry the mails few short routes. Boats cover few stretches in summer.
 The most notable change is in respect to the dog team routes. The airplane bidders have captured practically all routes once held by the dog mushers Out of the Il star route bids submitted last month the plane operators low bidders practically all except the river and few short auto and river routes
 These contracts going to the airplanes are not based on the socalled "armail postage requirements The plane operators bid for and carry the mail on the same condition as an express freight carrier on land lines would bd-namely by the pound, much per trip.
 The plane operators are getting away with the business because they do the work and deliver the goods in mere fraction of the time required by the old services of the horse and buggy" days For in stance they fly from Fairbanks to the Fortymile in two or three hours The old route via Circle up the 1uKOH, out lIOn EdBle required more Unan a mOnCE, sometimes two Numerous other instances of the kind might be cited
 A few of these tedious time wasting old star routes have persisted The result is the people have sent their mail for private delivery in of the planes Some of the lines have carried thousands of pounds of such accommodation mails free each month Now they should get the business.
 Some of the Alaska mails still required to go by boat in summer when arpanes would give the service in one hundredh of the time Why should the mails-eSpecially tEe first class mails and the lighter local newspaper deliveries be weeks in de- livery when hours will suffice, winter? Let the bulky business go by the slower land lines if they muSt-but give the people service in keeping with the general progress of the day.
 It is pleasing to the snew district postoffce inspector Earl M. March, here contracting officials public bodies plane and other operators and keeny seeking the best to give the people of Alaska the best of service consistent with the postal budget and limitations that control the department.
 Taken all in all Alaska is experiencing a long stride forward in her mail servces-and there is for further strides and improvements Old ways and old facilities must give way to the modern in every activity that spells economy, progress and improved service. Time marches on.

LACK OF ALASKA INFORMATION

Alaskans still have great deal of work to do in presenting the facts about the Territory to the world Outside Almost daily something comes up which shows the glaring lack of information about the Territory which prevails in the States The let ters which every mail from persons who have heard about Alaska and want to know more reveal the lack of knowledge Most of the business houses now take it as routine when commercial house Out side reports it will have to charge the Canadian ex change rate under the cloud of illusion that Alaska is part of Canada.
 It just doesn't seem to make sense, but the fact exists all know that there appears to be woeful lack of factual information Alaska. Of course, it stands to reason that any who ever attended grammer school should know that the Territory is part of the United States, but apparently some have forgotten it in later years.
 The February issue of Popular Mechanics maga- zine reveals an example of this lack of information perhaps not typical some, but nevertheless apropos It points out that Maine has the first flying game warden in the nation, a service which started last year. As matter of fact Alaska has had flying warden in the person of Sam White up at Fairbanks since 1880.
 It is one example in hundreds of similar ones, and 1t emphasizes the great need for fact presentation on the part of the Territory. Several times the idea of a publicity bureau dealing mostly with factual infor nation, has been advanced and tried to some extent Other methods of disseminating Alaska nforma ton have been carried
 We are not prepared to say what system might be adopted which would bring the best results But we are Of the theory that a bureau of information conc .ed in Washington in conjunction with the cffice of tle r-le~o+e to Congress would prove of great value. Of course, neither the Delegate members of his staff could be expected to handle it directly but if commercial groups of the Territory could budget to employ person conversant with the Territory, to work With the Delegate it is belief it would pay substantial dividends.

YOUR INCOME
 TAX

The period for the filing of in- ccme-taX returns covering the cal- endar year 1897 began January l and ends at midnight of March l5, 1888. To file early is of mutual bene- fit to the Government and the tax payer Within this period are filed annually millions of individual m- come-taX returns, large proportion of which report income subject to the tax.
 The latter contain a considerable percentage of errors, which if uncor- rected by the audit would result to the disadvantage of the taxpayer
 Many are errors of computation easily discovered on the face of the return, which usually is accompan- jed by payment of more than the amount of tax due In other returns it is readily discernible that the tax payer has failed to take advantage or the personal exemption, credit allowed for dependents, or deduc- ti0ns from gross income 10 which he is entitled.
 To avoid these and other errors. the Bureau of Internal Revenue urges careful reading of the instruc- tions accompanying the forms for filing the returns. Additional infor- nation, if needed, may be obtained at the office of collector of in- ternal revenue, deputy collector or an internal revenue agent in charge
 Taxpayers who apply to revenue officers for assistance in preparing returns should take with them a

copy of their prior year return.
 Also, as further aid in the pre- paration of a correct income-taX return for the year l937, the Bu- reau has prepared series of short newspaper articles, of which this is the first. advising the salaried man, wage earner, professional and busi- nesSman-in fact, every class of in- dividual taXpayer-of his require ments and privileges as interpreted under the latest regulations, rulings, and decisions relating to the income tax law
 Income Tax in a Nutshell WHO? Single persons who had net income of $l,000 or more or gross income of S5,000 or more, and married couples who had net income of $2500 or more or gross income of $5,000 or more must file returns
 WHEN? The filing period begins January l and ends March Is, 1888.
 WHERE? Collector of internal revenue for the district in which the person lives or has his principal place of business.
 HOW? See instructions accom- panying Forms 1040A and 1O40.
 WHAT? Four percent normal tax on the amount of net income in ex- cess of the personal exemption, credit for dependents, earned in- come credit, and interest on obliga- tions of the United States and obli- gations of instrumentalities of the United States. Surtax on surtax net income in excess of $4.000.
