Means Further Reduction
Of Many Things-CoI.
Ginsburgh Talks

NEW YORK, March 9.-Col
Robert Ginsburgh, Aide to Under
Secretary of War Robert p. Pat
terson, said the armed forces OF
100000 to be reached by the end
of 1914 will mean further reduc-
ton in the output of things other
than for war and war workers.
This total including the Navy,
I'VE can reach without destroying
our economy said Ginsburgh.
Col. Ginsburgh said the United
States has 100000 men already
overseas and he estimated the Eu-
ropean Axis strength at 100000.
Our plan is to give every SOL
der one years training before
sending him overseas. We plan to
send millions in 1914 and they
must be trained in l943," conclud-
ed Col. Ginsburgh.

COMING NORTH
TO AID SERVICE
Men IN FIELDS
More Recreation Facilities
PIdnned-Tom HoaQ-
land Coming :

SEATTLE, March 9-Men of the
armed forces on duty in Alaska
Western Canada and along the Al
can Highway will get more recrea-
tional facilities as rapidly as the
Government can provide them
Tom Hoagland said today.
Hoagland is Field Representative
of the United States Defense Health
and Welfare Service, and he is
leaving for Prince Rupert at the
first moment transportation Is avail
able. From there he will go north
ward, how far he does not know
but on this trip he will cover all
Southeast Alaska, visit cities anc
outposts and depending upon con-
ditions and transportation may even
work out onto the Aleutian chain
The problem of recreational build
ings and facilities is acute plus
! Then there are the problems OF
transportation of labor and sup
plies. Where the Army and Navy
are meeting the needs we will CO.
operate, otherwise, it is our respon-
sibility, Hoagland said.
The work is being done at the
request of the Special Services De-
partment of the War Department
and carried on with Army and
Navy and civilian cooperation he
said.
The Army will build the recrea-
tional structures where possible. The
first job, Hoagland said, will be to
determine what the needs are I'M
der conditions as they exist in Al
aska. In areas west of the 152nd
meridian, where all civilians have
been evacuated, there are spots
where there isn't room for athletic
fields, even if weather permitted
In many camps there is crying need
for recreation rooms and for ra-
dios and monographs, for current
magazines and newspapers and
games.
Quantities of recreation material
have been sent to Alaska through
the Civilian Recreation Bureau and
War Athletic Council, he said, but
more is needed.
A recreation hall is under con-
struction at Sitka. The American
Red Cross is Transforming the
American Legion hall at Kodiak
Buildings or rooms where men can
gather for lounging and fun, ath-
letics and music, games, reading
writing and comradeship are essen
tial. This is the job for which he
is heading north.

MORE TAX DOINGS

WASHINGTON, March 8 = Two
compromise proposals for the Ruml
income tax plan of skipping years
income tax, which would have a
bated lesser amounts of the 1912
tax liability have been rejected by
the House of Representatives Ways
and Means Committee. Rejection
of the compromise proposals fails to
break the existing deadlock on pay
as-you-go taxation.
One proposal, introduced by Re-
preventative A. Willis Robertson,
would abate six percent of the nor
NAL tax of those in the first brack-
ct and thirteen percent of the sur
tax on the first $4,000 of the 1912
income of all tax payers.
The second proposal, introduced
By Chairman Robert l.. Doughton,
would apply the much softer 1941
rates on exemptions of the 1912
income, letting the taxpayers am
ortize the remaining 1912 obliga-
lions over relatively short period
of time while simultaneously re-
hitting on the taxes of the current
year.
Action of the Committee leaves in
doubt future pay-as-you-g taxa
ton. Regardless of what action the
Ways and Means Committee takes
it is certain that advocates of the
Ruml plan to abate one years tax
alton will carry the battle on the
House floor.

Only IA Plants Are 10
Pack Salmon in Alaska
This Year;|tkes Orders

WASHINGTON March Sec
rotary of Interior, Harold L. Ickes,
has ordered the canning of this
years Alaska salmon to be by IA
of the largest and most modern
plants instead of 100 plants pre-
viously used.
Ickes, acting in the role of Fish
cries Coordinator, said the con-
centration is intended to help meet
the problems of manpower and
equipment shortages caused by the
war.
Secretary. Ickes said the order
was made necessary because the
armed forces have taken over a
large percentage of tenders and
power scows used by the canning
industry in Alaska.
The Secretary predicted greater
efficiency will make it possible to
increase the pack this year to $780,
900 cases. Last year the pack was
100000 cases.
Secretary Ickes has named Ralph
Ferrandini to administer the con-
centration order and his headquart-
erS will be at Seattle
The IA canning plants to operate
this season are not named.
