ONJTHIS hot question, Link is
cautious. He spoke against the
U. S-recognized Polish govern.
ment in the House but says, The
Tribune tries to tie me TO stand
favoring Russia in order to set
the Polish people against me-"
He keeps himself clear of he
hate-Russia fever stirred by the
PIMA, the largest fraternal- politi-
cal organization in the city, and
declares that the place for the
Polish issue is in the United Ma
tons Council and not in the 9TH
District.
When he was attacked in
Congress for endorsing the
Win-the-Peace Conference, ne
replied: q. in order not to be
branded Communist a

denim every strike must
vote for anti-strike bills, must
vote against all subsidies on

be against OPA must def
niteIy be for setting up an isO-

LINK, however, withdrew his
name as a sponsor of the Confer
ence. Rankin of Mississippi,
whom he describes as funny
duck" but brilliant and witty,
was one of the critics of the con.

Largest union membership in
the District is held by the United

It is mainly the work of these

NEW ITALIAN FASCISTS

The State Department isn't say ag anything about 1t, but one iln- lortant factor in the Spanish sit uation is the substituting of new fascist underground in Italy. This $ being done by money sent from spain.
 What happened was that just be- lore Mussolini was captured, mAny leading Italian fascists fled to Spain and got protection from Franco. Along with them went large amounts of flight capital Among the refugees was the family of Mussolini's mistress, Claretta Petacci, which escaped to Barce- Iona by airplane just about the lime of Mussolini's execution.
 This unofficial "Mussolini mis- sion in Spain has greater funds and more prestige than the Italian Embassy. They are now working with Franco interests to start a new Fascist underground in Italy.
 Despite this, some Staee Depart ment reactionaries, probably behind Jimmy Byrnes' back, have told certain Latin American diplomats that they do not favor diplomatic break with Franco.

LET'S HAVE ACTION

With hardly more than week left in the current extraordinary session of the Seventeenth Legislature one of the important pieces of legislation is tied up in conference and may still be there when the session ends We refer to bill for loans and bonuses for veterans of World War II.
 When that bill left the Senate a great deal of beneficiaries of the bill were satisfied with it it passed the Senate Anchorage veterans favored it and favored the excise tax it contained as of raising the money Ketchikan veterans organization took the same stand, and in Juneau the American Legion favored the bill The only organized opposition to the tax came from veterans of Fairbanks and we believe that the majority of veterans favored the excise tax and the Senate bill it passed the Senate.
 It seems strange to us that the editors of two newspapers one in Anchorage and the other in Ket- chkan both being published in communities where the veterans have been unanimous in their endorsement of the Senate bill and the tax it contains the only two publications opposing the Senate bill tax.
 The Anchorage editor attacks the tax because he says it is wanted by the canned salmon industry-a red herring that should be out by now. And the Ketchikan writer claims that if the tax is imposed the canned salmon industry will go to Canada and pack its fish because that industry is against the tax Both newspapers would be better off to print what their veterans think of the tax and that is that they are for it.
 When the bin passed the Senate it contained tax measure which is an excise tax, falsely labeled a sales tax"
 That tax was contained in the bill for several reasons First because it was apparent that the only form of tax that would bring in the money
The Daily Alaska empire., 1946-03-25

and enough of -in time to do the veteran some good The money is needed quickly, not next year That one of the reasons special session called instead of waiting another eight ten months
 Secondly, because any form of taxation is ob- jectionabe the tax was contained the bill providing for loans and bonuses to veterans because it believed by earmarking the funds, the people and industries of Alaska would have less reason to plain, especially since there further provision which automatically cancelled the tax when the fund built up to S3,500000, amount decided upon being large enough satisfy the veterans needs It is not permanent tax.
 But now what is happening? The House majority using the veterans bill as excuse to attempt to force the people of Alaska a separate income tax bll-a form of taxation which has been turned down by three successive sessions of the Territorial Legisla ture The veterans being used in this attempt even though the majority of them have spoken in favor of the excise tax and believe this deplor able. Why make the veteran take the rap?
 The excise tax contained in the Senate bill, in conference, isn't going to hurt anybody It is small which will be paid by great many persons and businesses. by the mail order houses and the tourists and the nonresident workers It will bring the money in almost at once.
 The issue seems clear to us, and We believe the veteran also knows the score We want to see him get something this sesson-not year from now-and if the present deadlock continues the going to take the rap and the fault will be with the House of Representatives.
 Lock at it this way The majority of organized veterans in Alaska have endorsed their bill including the excise-"sales tax" minority doesn't for it. Another minority doesn't want to speak out for against any form of taxation leaving this up to the Legislature No other adequate means of raising the money that has any chance of passing both houses of the Legislature has been proposed Little more than
 
 House of Representative need to know before they take some action?

ICKEs, CENSORED DIARY

During the Ed Pauley hearings, a lot of intimations were made that Secretary Ickes had not given the Senate Committee the full text or the diary in which he so caustically criticized Pauley for linking Demo cratic contributions with California oil lands.
 Real fact is that this was true. Ickes did not give the Senate the full text of his diary. He purposely held out one pungent line. Senator Tydings of Maryland, Democrat suspecting this to be the case, de- manded that Ickes ploduces the full text of his diary notation.
 Sensing they had 4ckes in :. trap, tycings and ther Dom )cratlc Sena DTS licked their chops wish anticipation. Taey figured that at last they had the Old Curmudgeon right where they wanted him.
 They didn't know. however, what it was that Ickes had left out of his claly--though another Senator did. f-e was Maine's Owen Brewster Republican, who whispered to Chairman Dave Walsh of Massa- chusetts what it was that Ickes had censored. After that, the Democrats suddenly cooled off.
 For what Ickes had written in his diary was line which would have done Democratic leadership absolutely. no good. The censored passage read:
 "Pauley said he considered Ed Flynn a cheap Bronx politician.
 To have this come out regarding the former Chairman of the Demo- cratic National Committee was toe much even for Tydings. Democratic Senators decided that Ickes had been right in censoring his oWr diary. They asked him no more questions

We Suspected As Much
Cincinnati EnquirerI

You remember, of course, the Federal income tax form of four years ago-a thing of beauty and joy forever to lawyers expert tax consutans and others who reaped harvest helping taxpayers understand the incomprehensibe. We remember it vvidly. Half the officials of the income tax division (we estimate conservatively) didn't understand it either Every body agreed that there ought to be law Even Con- gress agreed that there ought to be law, and thus the so-caled "smplified Federal income tax return form" born.
 Judging by the evidence at hand the simpllfied return merely simpfed making out your income tax wrong And don't take word for it. Collector of Internal Avenue James P Finnegan of St. Louis says The smplified form is of the most complicated
 have ever and the so-called complicated regular form is one of the most simple"
 Is that clear? Then will proceed. Mir Finnegan says that in his officeand his experience is typical because the people of St. Louis probably aren't any dunlber than people anywhere ese-tnere are half again many refunds for miscalculated Income the simplified forms on the regular form although the otal number of each form used about the same. Beyond that, he ayers, it takes twice many clerks to check the simplified returns because of auditing complications
 Now do you understand? We don't either.

HEART AND HOME

HEART AND HOME
 This is an suspicious day for a review of household methods and procedures which should determine whether ones energies are being used to best advantage. Time, effort and money may be saved by an honest examination of habits and accepted practices in the conduct of the home, provided it is accom- panied by an earnest desire to make the most efficient use of ones op- portunities and abilities. Nothing is beyond improvement.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS
 U. s. business men will receive full cooperation of the government shortly in a program designed to stimulate foreign trade. Represen- tatives of U. s. firms will be grant, ed accommodations on Government controlled ships and planes and be aided in many other ways in cul- tivating foreign markets.
 NATIONAL ISSUES
 U. s. scientists will . support a movement to import German scientists to this country where it can be shown that they were talk en over by the Nazis in groups and without reference to the political convictions of the individuals con- cerned.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
 Conflicting political interests will continue to delay the unification of administration in Germany, which was the avowed objective of the Potsdam declaration. Most of the responsibility for the failure to per feet a unified administration by now rests on France which has shown little disposition to cooper ate.
 Persons whose birthdate this is are promised by the stars: A year of spiritual growth and increasing ly. gainful employment.
 Children born today will be self1 willed, determined and successful.
