Russia's Population
Cincinnati Enquirer)

A recent radio speaker, among the worlds foremost experts population trends predicted that by 1970 less than 25 years aeadRssia would have 250000o00 inhabitants. With such tremendous man power added to her already gigantic reserves of natural resources Soviet will be in position to dominate Europe as well Asia Such is the probability the speaker declared whether it appeals to us or not.
 The conclusions were reached after lifetime devoted the science of world populations and after study of the tremendous background of factual in formation on the subject Since todays students have at their disposal fairly accurate record of racial population fluctuations reaching back over thousands of years it is possible now to predict with accuracy what tomorrows fluctuations will be- There is every believe that the prediction of Russias grow ing power is basically correct
 Population of course, is not the single determining factor in the power of any nation Many other things enter-education and adapability natural resources geographical location. In 25 years Russia has made amazing progress in general education. There is no indication that this progress will be retarded In fact there are signs that it will continue at accelerated pace natural the Soviet far exceeds any land in either Europe or Asia. While location may work against her in regards, it seems probable that she-even now-is planning to improve some of her geographical shortcomings, notably her lack of open-water ports. This she can do either by treaty CT by annexation
 Population growth at this time would contribute mmeasurably to Soviet power At the beginning of World War IT her 8000000 square miles supported some lozoUUUuO perSonS Onouiu SIie Beul uP"alu ol ioo, 000 in the coming 25 years the increase alone would give Russia of military age than had Germany and France combined at the outbreak Of hostilities.
 Russia still is less than 40 years away from her dark ages" She is only entering the period when, history tells great population increases will be seen These studies should give America ample notice that the Soviet is likely to hold the same position in the Eastern Hemisphere that the United States now exercises in hers These two of all the worlds nations seemed destined to rank and during the generations immediately ahead

Bethlehems lawyers and tax ex- perts informed the Treasury that, since the corporation had lost money during 1945, it was entitled to rebate on previously paid tax es under the carry back provisions.
 So the Treasury actually is kick ing back a $34, 100000 rebate to the Corporation. This amount also is taX-free.
 Added to the previously mention ed S22,676,000 profit for the third quarter, Bethlehem actually came out S57,656,000 ahead for the third quarter of last year without any obligation to pay dime of taxes, while still showing a paper loss on operations.
 It sounds complicated, but it's very simple if you have tax law yer, a piece of paper and a pencil And thanks to Chairman George of Georgia and his colleagues on the Senate Finance Committee, it saves your corporation a whale of lot of dough

Breakdown of the five million dollar increase in recommended appropriations for Alaska contained in President Harry Truman's 1947 Budget Message to the Congress opens the way for hopes that nick may at last be made in Alaska's road needs
 There is promise in the budget recommendation of an approximate and three-quarters million dollar increase the item for Roads, bridges and trails, construction and maintenance" Just how much mean ing read into that promise is greatly dependent upon the t-yet-forthcoming report of the House roads committee which travelled the Territorys too few present highways last summer
 favorable committee report, which has been indicated combined with the Presidents proposals, should bring about some increase.
 Nor are all of Alaska's highway hopes de- pendent upon that item. Also under consideration are at least two major appropriation measures: An already authorized but not yet financed and oneha million dollars yearly for three years to be devoted roads within the National Forests of Alaska and mult-mion dollar special appropriation for Turnagain Arm crossing and Seward Anchorage highway survey for which undertaken late last year by the Public Roads Administration.

BRITISH BUFFER STATE

BRITISH BUFFER STATE
 It isn't being advertised. but Marshal Zhukov, Soviet Com mander in Germany, has sent blistering letter to Field Marshal Montgomery, Commander of the British zone in Germany. He charges that several hundred thou sand German soldiers are being kept in the British zone. organiz- ed in companies and regiments, all ready to fight war all over again.
 zhukov informed Field Marshal Montgomery that, according to his information, part of these Nazi troops, were being drilled regularly by their own officers. He also claimed about 100000 Germans had been allowed to retain their small arms, that heavy ordnance, in- cluding tanks and artillery, was be- ing kept close at hand, available for use.
 Zhukov notified Field Marshal Montgomery that he considered this hostile to Russia and in viola ton of the Potsdam agreement
 Marshal Montgomery's reply to zhukov was equally blistering. He admitted thousands of Germans were still armed but claimed the number was less than Zhukcv ai- legged. In general, however the tone of Montgonery's letter was "So What?s
 Behind this exchsn9c Of letters is a danserous situation which be- gan with the Armistice and has been getting worse ever since. It is the British balance-of- power pol icy of playing of Germany against Russia. The same thing happened after the last war, when the Bri- tish played off Germany against France. British money poured into German industry, German banks and even German munitions plants. When the French proposed stop ping Hitler's invasion Of the Rhine land on March T, 1886, it was the British who discouraged the French.
 Today Britain is still following the balance-of- power policy-with a different twist. Instead of play ing France off against Germany, she is trying to patch up relations between these two, and play both off against Russia.
 Today Britain is trying to con- solidate a strong western bloc Belgium, France, Holland and Ger many. That is the real factor be- hind the policy of saving certain German factories; also behind the keeping of German troops in their original regimental formations.
 Aside from colonial troops, Bri- tain always has kept one of the smallest armies in the world. So German troops are now serving as a virtual backstop in the balance of f-power game against Russia.

the Tax Adjustment Act of 1945. This law, passed last July, made 1t possible for businesses to be paid tentative refunds arising from recomputation of amortization of national defense facilities within 50 days.
 Then on Sept. 29, 1945, President Truman issued an ordeT, ending the war emergency period for amorti- zation of defense facilities without proclaiming the emergency over for other things. He did not terminate the war for the GI's serving under the draft or for businessmen work ing under Government restrictions. He terminated the war only for the purpose of recomputing the amorti- zation period, which, of course, was big tax help to war contractors.
 Thus Bethlehem Steel was able to charge the balance of it's un- amortized holdings totalling S44,- 100000 as an expense during the third period of 1945. This meant paper loss of $27.218,000, and brought Bethlehem into the theor- etical red" Therefore, it has to pay no taxes for 1945, even for the period in which it earned $22,676,- 900.
 However, this isn't all Good cor poration lawyers figured out that their client had operated during the period of 1945 at a paper loss of s27,218,000
 This set the stage for another lush nick at Uncle Sam's bankroll

The Daily Alaska empire., 1946-02-02

companies aren't too worried about the strike, take look at the tax law Congress so generously gave them. Though it's hard to under stand all the taxation jiujitsu, it will give you revealing picture. Take for instance the case of Bethlehem Steel
 Actually, Bethlehem's books show that it went into the red as soon as the war ended. But the real fact is that 1945, despite the tax legerdemain, was the most pros porous year Bethlehem has seen in years.
 Here is what happened: during the third quarter of 1945, Bethle- hem earned a profit before taxes of $22,676,o00. However Bethlehem will pay no taxes on this sum be- cause it will show paper loss for the period which is legal and will build the three months actual pro- fits to a cool tax-free $57,656, 900.
 Ordinarily, business. is permitted to depreciate property over the life of the property. But back in 'l940 when some businessmen were stalling on starting war produc- tion, Congress handed business a lush incentive which permitted it to amortize it's defense plants over a Swear period or less if the war ended sooner.
 However, lush as it was, this wasn't juicy enough so big business tax lobbyists managed to wangle even more generous treatment in
