TO SAVE FUGITIvES
FROM GEORGIA CHAIN GANG

Chicago, Oct, (CNA)-A fear-rid-
den colony of Georgia fugitives hud-
died this week in a battered South Side
tenement as the long arm of the Ga
chain gang reached out into Chicago to
shackle the ball and chain on three
of their number
Far from the crack of the plantation
owners whip, more than a score of
fugitives from virtual peonage on the
immense farm of w. T. Cunningham
in Sandy Coves, Ga, were threatened
with return to the sadistic brutality of
white overseers.
Whether they can be saved from rule
by rope and baggot depends on the
fate of three of their number, framed
on charges of burglary by Cunning
ham. If Illinois sends three back to
Georgia, all are threatened.
The trio, Otis Woods, 40; his son,
Dock, %; and Solomon McCannon, 80
are lodged in Cook County Jail
awaiting the outcome of an eXtradition
hearing before Judge Dewitt c. Bill
man, Governor Henry Horner's agent.
Demands u. S. Act
Interlocked with the fight against ex-
tradition is the demand that the De-
partment of Justice take action against
peonage on the Cunningham plantation.
Facts in the case have been lain before
Attorney General Frank Murphy.
Defense attorned William Huff, told
the Crusader News Agency that Gun,
ningham is law in Oglethorpe County
Ga, and can have any Negro jailed BY
a request to the sheriff
Three weeks ago he swore out Z
warrant against the Woods, father and
son, and McCannon and had them ar.
rested here. He charged them will
burglarizing his barn on December %
1885, although all three were working
for him in Georgia long after that date
The Woods family left on May
1896, after working for Cunningham
for 10 years to pay off SIS debt
Strongest evidence for the accused is
a letter from John Alexander, white
who was overseer at the Cunningham
place, to Huff, which states:

TAX ASSESSMENTS

Chances are you've received a tax assessment
notice from the City of juneau Last year taxpayers
contributed 10 mills the dollar to the cost OF
government here. Twenty mills is the maximum
under the law The City Council will set the tax
rate after it has in hand final tax roll showing
the valuation of all property in the City and after
it knows what prospective expenditures in the COM
ing year will be.
Alaskans don't know what taxes are just as
Americans don't know what taxes are, as compared
to the people of Europe who carry much heavier
burden In the States an 18-mill total tax levy is
unheard Of In the State of Washington for in
stance citizens by initiative have restricted the tax
levy to 40 mills which is considered low.
For 10 mills the people Of Juneau are receiving
all the services of government enjoyed anywhere.
That the services are constantly increasing is COM
monplace knowledge If taxes were to increase with
them. that would only be fair,
Assessments this year vary considerably in many
cases from those in former years the reason being
that thorough job of valuation was performed by
the assessor The City Council this year authorized
a complete revaluation here, based personal in
spection such equalization is necessary from time
to time especially in a City such Juneau which
is growing by leaps and bounds. The equalization
reflected in your tax assessment notice is the first
in ten years here If the assessed valuation of your
property is good deal more or less than it was at
taxpayng time last year that is proof that the re-
valuation needed.
In the past ten years population has doubled
here. Expenses of operation of the City have in
creased along with the value of property as evil

Forests as Potential Food Source
Fairbanks NeWs-Miner)

F. A. Scox chief of the United States Forestry
Service visitor in Fairbanks during the week. in
reviewing the value of Americas forests from various
angles called attention to several pertinent points
apropos the subject of which many are not aware.
The forests asserted the chief, not only are
GREAT national asset because of their commercial
timber and recreational centers, but likewise as
sources OF fur and food supply Touching the 1000
supply Mr. Scox called particular attention to the
fact that by proper management many forests IN
the States and likewise in Europe and other older
countries are converted into grazing areas for wild
and domestic herds and animals and breeding places
for various birds which proving invaluable in
furnishing no nconsderable portion of the national
meat supply.
AS to the domestic animals the people generally
are well aware Mr. Sicox points out, however,
that many are unacquainted with the fact that Ger
tain older countries by careful administration by
experts in their line, putting into the markets
annually vast quantities of game birds and beasts,
famed for their excellence as foods. This he points
out is particularly in respect to deer, roe boars,
and elk--prized in many lands as game animals and
likewise pheasants, grouse and other game birds
Germany and other Central European countries, he
says particularly progressive on these lines and
managing to keep much game in the markets for
the benefit of the popuace. Several of the eastern
and southern states of America, he explains are
doing likewise and others are evolving similar con-
dition
Alaska contends Mr.. Silcox with her vast num-
bers of reindeer, caribou, moose and other large
game should be able by proper management, to
permit the taking at the right time of considerable
percentage of such animals and birds annually for
consumption by the public, including the sale OF
the same in the markets. In time the buffalo
now the initial stage of introduction in the Ter
ritory, may be multiplied to the degree they also
will become a source of food supply said Mr. Silcox
With the more numerous species, points ou
the forest chief large percentage of the animals

Care, however he emphasizes, S h Guild be taker
against unlimited killing and Wanton slaughter
and first of all in seeing that the supply is adequate
before being commercialized In countries
the process Of outstanding certain wild animals ant
birds has been developed to such degree they have
overrun the country and have become pests ane
bounties offered.
i If and when the time comes for permitting Al
aska's game to be placed the market it is certain
that utmost care should be taken that the supply
more than adequate and the perpetuation of eacl
species in abundance is assured

has made in the past years and will all be proud to
live here and know that they partners in the
ownership of these values" Juneau should further
be proud, the Mayor says, in the fact that Juneau
bonds are in demand at present and few change
ownership. This is indication of the excellent
financial standing of the City, reflected in premiums
paid on all bonds which sold recently to pay for
improvements
Beyond the reluctance of most of us to pay out
good money in taxes must be discerned the benefits
of good municipal government and the many services
we receive at what, when stop to think of it,
is a bargain rate
Very few people like to pay taxes One who did
was Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes,
who said:
Il like to pay taxes 1t is buying civilization"

A plane was sent from Sitka this
morning to search for Shean but re-
turned at noon without having
found any trace of the missing man.
Trollers in the region said they
would go to North Cape and drag
for Shean's body.
Berlin went to Sitka to receive
medical attention for his hand in
which a fishhook was lodged.
