 What attracted their attention was sheet of instructions given them by MT. Rockefeller, which read:
 Delegates should have dinner jackets and short coats with striped trousers for formal daytime wear" However, Rockefeller pacified his flock by telling them they could use their discretion.
 Other helpful hints handed out by MT. Rockefeller's office were:
 Because of the. extreme dryness of the air during the winter months, the use of a light oil spray for lubricating the nasal pas sages will probably be comfort. Persons with high blood pressure are particularly warned against the danger of over-exercising them selves in the high altitude.
 "Uncooked food, especially un- peeled fresh fruits and leafy vege- tables such as grapes and lettuce should not be eaten," the delegates were warned.
 Highly seasoned Mexican food should be experimented with with caution. The conference meeting rooms in Chapultepec Castle will probably be chilly by United States standards" was the final warning given to the U. s. delegation. (Copyright, ly4u, by The | Bell Syndicate, Inc.)

DEsIRABILITY IS NOT ENOUGH

We believe that every proposal that would increase or add new should have unquestioned necessity as it's basis. Mere desirability is not enough.
 The planess raising of revenue is direct invi- tation to extravaganza and such spending is charge not only against those who have the ability to pay but charge against the income of every Alaskan. @
 Unfortunately, increased taxes are rarely spent for the purpose of increasing production tax gives anything it always takes something away. It is always penalty levied upon whoever pays it. It penalizes the earning of money the making of profit the buying of goods-it always penalizes.
 It follows that no interest in the economic scheme labor capital management-can have larger share the total product is less than before If the Territorial government takes larger share of the product there will be smaller remainder to distribute This will result in perhaps larger incomes to those favored few who would administer to the newly created bureaus and commissions but in smaller in- comes for all other Alaskans.
 Let us try to forget for the moment that the proposed income tax would hit directly at the ndi- vidual class, which is mainly labor, to the tune of S80OOOO for the biennium What if the tax hit only the corporations? K ,.ss. .-s
 The taxation of corporate income enters into the of doing business reduces the supply of capital Higher taxes always make unattractive the invest ment of capital, discouraging risk-taking and business adventure The ultimate effect would be to reduce the economic opportunity in Alaska by ducng the supply of capital for the development of Alaska's natural The production of wealth is discouraged, and in the end there will be less wealth to distribute aoasveryone- profits less wages less products. s.s@ ,M AW MM
 The supposed advantage of this proposed program is theoretical and believe, largely illusory. The supposed advantage to residents would be at best only temporary for the residents of Alaska would straight away encounter lower wages and fewer profits.
 In taxation, as in all other fields of economic endeavor it is foolish believe that something can be had for nothing.

FRANCO HAUNTs MEXICO

h14NNo IAS4N o 4AA<AAOO
 Last month, members of the Old Spanish Cortez tried to hold a meeting in Mexico City The Cortez is the Spanish Parliament, and ever since Franco set up his dictatorship, it's members have been exiled, many in Latin Am- erica.
 So it was proposed that the rem- nants of Democratic Spain get together and hold a meeting in Mexico City.
 But they did not reckon with our State Department.
 When James c. Dunn thusband of the Armour millions was called before the Senate during the con- firmation fight over his promotion to be Assistant Secretary of State, he told Senator Guffey of Penn- sylvania that he had never been favorable to Franco. Since then he has inspired series of newspaper columns purporting to tell how he had nothing to do with the boycott of Loyalist Spain.
 However, when two members oi the Spanish Cortez sought pass port visas to cross the Panama Canal to attend the meeting in Mexico City, the State Department said no The Spanish Congressmen were south of the Panama Canal and the Mexico City meeting was north. The Canal lay across their path, and the State Department refused to let them cross. The man in the State Department who passes primarily on these matters is Jamea c. Dunn. Hull is no longer in the State Department. Stettinius was either away or busy with the Big Three" Conference. The main de-

What will happen to the Willow
Run residents and the Government
housing project after the war?
This question Is uppermost in the
minds OF thousands of workers in
the various plants in this area and
in the surrounding communities.
Not many months ago we wit
messed the highly disillusioning
struggle which took place in order
to provide housing and health
needs for the workers who were GO
ing to man the highly vital war Jobs
in the Bomber Plant. Much time
elapsed and thousands of planes
were lost to the war effort because
OF the complete lack of planning
prior to the crisis.
1t was apparent that the idea OF
planning beyond the borders of the
several cities which make up Metro
politan Detroit. had never occurred
to any one. That the day would
arrive when people would live be.
yond the borders Of their respec-
tive communities and would need
water and sewage disposal. plus
other utilities, had not been
thought Of No plans had been de-
vised and no surveys made.
Now we are near the end Of the
European war. News OF the 'front.'
indicates a break up may occur on
any day. The natural question OF
the day is: What will follow?
Civic planners, who have the int.
crest OF the community at heart.
and who have voluntarily agreed 10
serve on an overall committee OF
such volunteers. have been trying
TO find the answer TO the question:
