WE CAN'T SEE AHEAD

Last year when Gov. Gruening presented 10 the Territorial Legis- Iature an income tax plan for AL aska. there arose a cry that echoed rom polut barroW lo Dixon En- trance. IL seemed everybody was against Il. At any rate, the Legls- lators thought so and turned It aoWu. Many Alaskans were happy. NON they are beginning to wonder II their ecstaey was il-founded.
 Under the income tax plan Tor the Territory proposed by the Governor there would have been exemptions Tor residents Of small income. h Iaet. the original bill proposed not To levy on incomes under S2,eUV, and it was graduated at a small rate until il got into the higher brackets The pill was intended to make Alaskans tax conscious; get them to realize that they must con tllDute more and the Federal govern ment less toward upkeep ot the Ter rlIory II they ever expect to get nome rule; ultimate statehood.
 Intention or the bill, too, was to tax those rom the Outside who come north each year, make a handsome income and take it back to the States unscathed by any contribution 10 Alaska. Most outstanding exam pie Alaskans are seeing now is con- tractors and deIense workers on gov ernment projects in the north max ing big money, not one cent of 1t which can be touched for taxation m the Territory. It isn't an exagger- ation to say that millions are being made on defense jobs in Alaska to- uay. sure, Uncle Sam will get his cut in the Federal income return, but Alaska is still looking to fisn and mining to pay the freight.
 Regardless Of whether il is the Governor suggestion or that oi some one else, the time is coming when Alaskans, if they expect tc keep their Territory moving along are going to have to look to other sources Of revenue than the old standbys-fish, gold and whiskey Millions Of dollars are going out ol the Territory right now untouched by Territorial taxation; there will be millions more in the years ahead
 True, We cant see ahead, but sometimes a little hind sight, when thoroughly examined, makes fol foresight in the future.
