The Daily Alaska empire., 1945-03-05

interest rate has been cut about in half and income and death taxes have grown enormously
 Now a mans income grows his take-home per- centage shrinks And what his invested savings earn will pile top of what he earns further reducing the percentage he keep And his dollars wages, unlike those of the human worker have gone down during the war boom. Whereas once non speculative interest rate of per cent could be expected it is about half that
 Few financial leaders foresee any great alteration in this situation when the ends. For thing, this nation will have debt approximatng $500 900 100000. At per cent the carrying charge alone would be $6OOO 900 OOO year. Permit the rate to return to or per cent and the charge would swell to s12OOo 100000 to 100000. Amortizng payments and local government costs would raise the total burden, at the higher interest rate to ap- proxmatey $50 GOO 100000 year-about two-thrds of the national income in low business year
 That would to leave the Federal Govern mem no alternative but to hold down interest rates. Coming world rehabilitation costs, plus financing and amortizng of a huge debt, indicate no escape from high personal income taxes. This makes for a con- dtion highly fertile for the socialized state toward which we may be moving. It will tempt more and more to rely in Washington-and man has found that Washington needs little urging to staff another bureau with its demands for additional information about us it's placing of more restrictions and all at our expense.

Racketeers and Basketball
Cincinnati Enquirer)


 It is with feeling of profound revulsion that we read of professional gamblers attempting in college basketball the same slimy tricks which almost ruined professional baseball before the time of Judge Kenne saw Mountain Lands.
 There had been that the gambling fra ternity had turned it's unwelcome attention to the sport basketball after the tracks were closed by Federal edict According to these reports, not only were the college basketball games being used as a medium of betting, but in Keeping with the char acteristc trait of the gambling racketeer certain ones of the games being fixed"
 There fire behind the smoke. This became evident when five Brooklyn College basketball players admitted that they had conspred with gamblers to lose by agreed number of points-in game wlth University at Boston on the night Of January 31 The consideration to be $3O00, and $lO00 already had been paid to the players with the balance to be paid after the game It is beside the point o course that the boys might have gotten horse laugh instead of the remaining $2000 because crook who would fix a game and then accept bets on 1t IS no more trustworthy than the common varieties of thief
 We hope that the action which followed the revelation will be of suitable severity to make other gamblers think twice before molesting basketball again and to discourage other players from succumplng to the temptation gamblers may put in their way
 And when we say of suitable severity, we mean severe The only hope of decently conducted sports in this country is to make crooked gamblers keep their hands off Wrestling degeneraed into virtual vaudeville performance when. the public began to suspect with good reason, that number of the bouts were fixed The boxing ring has done as well as it has-and it might have done great deal better only because boxing commissions dealt roughly with a number of crooks they appeared. Dog tracks in many localities acquired an odor of dlsrepute rom crooked gamblers. And had it not been Tor the rigorous honesty of Judge Lands, organized baseball would not have a place in the public esteem anything like the it has.
 Basketball is a splendid game, with deservedly increasing popularity. The gambling element snouio be ierked up by the scruff of the neck and told: Lay off" before real damage is done to the game.

TERRITORIES FUND

Territorial Treasurer Oscar G. Olsons report for February shows continuance of the increase in the Territory's bank balances which has been noted es- pecialy during the last bennium, during which the cash balances have been the highest in the Territoys history. nss a. N
 The February figure is about million dollars higher than the report issued when the Legislature in session two years ago.
 The $6OOO0O invested in United States War Bonds not only adds to the Territorys support of the effort but also adds about thousand dollars month in the form of interest to the Territorial Treasury
 In the light of these figures it is difficult to the "crying need for new revenue" which some legislators talk about.
The Daily Alaska empire., 1945-03-05
ANOTHER EDITOR HEARD FROM

Editor Sid Charles of the Ketchikan Fishing News issues the following cement the Legislature:
 Comparing accomplishment of the first half of the session of the Territorial Legislature with the accomplishments of the annual convention of the Alaska Native Brotherhood and Sisterhood at Rake, it might be good idea to turn Alaska back to the Indians. The Native convention conducted in an orderly to achieve certain concrete results, while the Legislature has been induging in political pickering, squabbles personalities and wasting the taxpayers money.
