TERRITORIAL LIQUOR CONTROL EFFECT
 ON EMPLOYMENT
Office of Governor of Alaska
 Press Release

The is the second of a series of articles on the Alaska Liquor Industry based upon a factual study by the Alaska Planning Council for the Governor of AL aska and released by Governor Ernest Gruening.
 The first of these articles dealt with the importance of the h. dustry and it's rank as a source of tax revenue to the Territory and to the incorporated towns.
 This article shows it's relation ship to employment and business generally in each community.
 The Alaska Liquor industry IS as important to the livlihood of each community as it is to the Territorial tax structure, accord ing to factual study made by the Alaska Planning Council for the Governor. This study will be submitted to the 1941 session of the Legislature. Pertinent facts from the study have just been re- leased for publication by Cover nor Ernest Gruening.
 The liquor industry ranks among the leaders in employ ment, wages paid and other ex- penditures, al of which figure in community revenues. In taxation it ranks third, fisheries and min ing only exceeding it.
 Based upon figures assembled from the larger communities, the trade pays out in wages, rent, light, heat, water, drayage, phone service, advertising and minor miscellaneous items, approximate ly S350,000 annually. It supports some 1900 persons, It pays union wages and works union hours. It is closely regulated by officers of the Treasury Department as well as Federal income tax officials.
 Ketchikan, with a wage scale comparable to that paid in Ju- neau,> Anchorage and Fairbanks, is typical of the larger commun- ities of the Territory. In a sur vey made by a licensed, certified public accountant, labor alone in 1889 was paid in Ketchikan the sum of $97,033.
 Rentals was the next most i'm portant item. Package stores and cocktail lounges ranked as the second in importance with a total of S24,10 Third was light, water and phone service with $l1,331. Newspaper advertising in Ketchi- kan newspapers was third, aggre- gating $6, ,467. Miscellaneous items totalled $3,589..
 Local transfer companies shar- ed to an appreciable extent. For drayage alone, Ketchikan liquor dealers paid last year the sum of $3,361 for drayage. No figures were obtainable for costs of wharf age and longshoring in any of the communities, as it was not possible to Segregate these from the other items on the general cargo list.
 Throughout the Territory near ly three hundred premises were occupied in whole or in part by licensed dealers. While substan tial proportion of these are own ed by licensees, many are rent ed properties for which the licen see pays the same rental as other

Last Friday evening the pastor and
members of Peoples Church were in
vited to attend a Brotherhood Meeting
at Congregation Emmanuel, a Jewish
Synagogue. 1t was one of the finest
meetings we have ever attended. The
friendly spirit exhibited on the part OF
all races present was superb. All
races and nations of the earth are
rapidly coming to the conclusion that
after all 1--WE are our brothers Keen
er," and that racial Separation is
wrong. Because of a great weakness
and lack of strength and courage to
face the hardships of life, colored Jews
and others have cried out PERSECU-
ZION, PREJUDICE, AND MUS
TlCE to the world without cooperating
with each other in trying to do some
thing about it. We can do more thru
Brotherhood and Race Cooperation in
one week than can be done in year
by continuing to tell your troubles to
the world. We certainly need more
brotherhood and Race Cooperation
Meetings of the kind we had at the
Congregation Emmanuel last Friday
evening. The address on Brotherhood
