From where | sit
By Joe Marsh

I mention this story about Dad
Hoskins because it's something
like what I understand the beer
industry is doing to regulate itself.
AS I see it, most of the beer in
dustry behaves itself perfectly all
right but every now and then,
I guess, retailer comes along who
runs a place that isn't up to
scratch {. . sort Of like wayward
kid.
So like Dad Hoskins' family, the
brewers and beer distributors
have united together in an indus
try self-regulatiom program to
help the proper authorities "clean
up or close up" offending retail
places.
The brewers, who want to pro-
tect beers good name, cooperate
wisely with the authorities who
enforce the laws.
From where I sit, that's fine
thing for the brewers to do -.
particularly when you realize that
after all they're really not respon-
sible for retailing conditions.

USE TAX FOR BOATS TO BE
 REQUIRED NOW

owners of boats are subject to the Special Use Tax and must purchase stamp before July l if they in- in1 tend to operate their craft on or after that date. This is according to advices received in today's mail from Clark Squire, Collector Of In ternal Revenue. The advices also state that applications for stamps are now being mailed taxpayers on the Collectors list.
 Like the motorist who faces a gas shortage if he does not have the auto use stamp on his car, the yachtsman appears to have a choice of buying stamp for the new fiscal year or unshipping oars for nice long row if he insists on boating. Uncle Sam says no gaso- line will be available to boats that do not bear use stamps after the proposed rationing program is estab- lished
 Tax is due for the full fiscal year, July to June 30, 1943, if the boat is used July or any time thereafter during that month. If the boat is first placed in operation in a later month it is subject to reduced tax according to the number of months remaining in the year. Stamps must be paid for with cash, post office money order or certified check The Collector will accept no other form of remittance.
 Tax follows the boat and, there fore, only one stamp should be purchased for boat even though ownership changes during the year The rate is $5 for boats l6-28 feet in length, and graduates to as high as $200 for those over 200 feet Stamp must be purchased before the boat is put into use.
 There are 9 exemptions from the tax including boats: Not propelled by machinery or sails; measuring less than l6 feet in length, not used during the taxable year; used chiefly for trade; chiefly for con- mercial fishing; used without profit by any benevolent, charitable, or re- ligious organizations exclusively foi furnishing aid, comfort, or reliei to seamen; used by sea scouts chiefly for training sea scouts ir seamanship; owned by non-resi- dent aliens; used by the United States, a state, territory. District of Columbia, or any political sub- division. f4la

DisiiIling
 Industry Is
 Aiding Govt.
To Be 100 Percent in Fed eraI Production by Fall,
 Colonel Wiehe States

The distillNlg industry through out the United States is doing great deal for the offensive pro- gram of the country in the produc- ton of alcohol, one of the most essential war materials declared Col. Theodore C. Wiehe, of the Schenley Distillers Corporation who arrived in Juneau last night, from his headquarters in New York City on his third trip to Alaska.
 At present the industry is about 50 percent in production for the government and we believe that by September or October it will be 100 percent in government produc- ton of alcohol for offense work, !" Col Wiehe said.
 Distillers are now manufacturing hiAh wines which are converted into, alcohol for the use of the government and by September or October it is believed that dis tilleries will be converted so that alcohol can be manufactured in them, he said. Because of this con- version and turning over 100 per cent of the production to the goy- ernment, the manufacturing of whiskey or gin in the United States will be temporarily ended, Col. Wiehe stated.
 'In the United States there are at present stocks of whiskey on hand to last five years and the Schenley Corporation has the larg- est stock of any distillers in the world" he said. There will, how ever, definitely be shortage of gin"
 The industry is also cooperating with the government to see that licensees abide by the law in all respects and is doing a great deal in this way toward keeping the handling of liquor free from all possible criticism, according to Col Wiehe
 Not Apprehensive
 Those connected with the distill- ing industry are not apprehensive about a renewal of the prohibition move as the memory of the terrible abuses of the prohibition era still finger in the minds of most adults of the country, Col Wiehe said. In connection with this, a close watch was kept in Hawaii during the period from December 2, 1941 un- til February 24, l942 during which time the Territory of. Hawaii was dry under martial law, and statis- tics showed that there was a vast increase in arrests from drunken ness and illegal actions connected with liquor abuse during that time in comparison to normal times, he said.
 Taxes Important
 From the t.>x standpoint the dis tilling industry is most important and, in effect, the distilling comp anies act as tax collectors for the government, cording to Col Wiehe.
 Col. Wiehe is President of Schen- Icy International Corporation, Pres ident of Schenley Import Corpora ton and Vice-president of Schen- ley Distillers Corporation. He was met here by J. w. Gucker, Alaska Representative for the firm and from Juneau they plan to cover as much of the Territory as time and transportation will permit.

Victory Garden Advice
is Given to Farmers

not here and may never be.
Abundant suitable land Is still
available and the need for beau
ty in our lives Is greater than
ever. (3) Don't try to cultivate
more ground than you can care
for well, not try to grow more
kinds of crops than can be
grown successfully and economi-
cally in your locality, soil, eli
rate, etc. az Don't have the soil
prepared, spend money for seeds
and supplies, and then neglect
and abandon it. (5) Don't let
anything 60 to waste in your
garden. (6) Don't burn up ref
use, leaves, pods. vines, etc.
add to the compost heap where
they will change to humus and
plant food.
These talks were followed by
a question box, at which time
the question of what the local
branches of the garden clubs
could do was discussed at some
length.

GRADES 5A AND 5B

The pupils of the 5A are look
ing ahead to the study of our
own country this semester. They
have already started individual
notebooks in which they are list
ing the most important facts Of
our interesting geographical and
historical country. We have
learned from our study of other
countries that differences in
ways of living in different re-
gions are due to several things,
at present we're interested in
three very important ones: diff
ferences in climate, and differ
ences in natural resources"
In the United States we are
studying to see the effect upon
our ways of living. Our unit on
How the Surface of .he Earth
Changes" in science helps ex-
plain the topography of our
United States.
The SD have already started
out on our tour of the Orient.
We are visiting China first and
we are finding out many new
and unusual things about this
ancient civilization which is still
playing a very important part
in world affairs today.
Both grades are proud of last
weeks spelling test, only four
people out of thirty missed
words. We are working to do
even better this Friday.
