his remarks against the tax
measure.
Mr.. Gosser repeated his prin-
cipal points of disagreement
with the payroll tax which he
mentioned in his talk before
Council at its Dec. % meeting,
saying that if City Council
passed the tax as it now stands
he would get the necessary sig
natures to put the issue on the
ballot for the fall election.

Business
Slows Down
Reconversion

WASHINGTON, Jan. 7
LPA) - The hesitancy of
business to 60 all-out on pro-
duction has retarded and will
continue to retard reconver-
sion, A. F. Hinrichs, acting COM
missioner of labor statistics of
the u. S. Labor Department, de-
clared last week.
Although noting that there
has been a decrease in total wage
and salary payments" he found
it less drastic than expected and
on the whole anticipated that
"the outlook for 1916 is for fur
ther economic expansion"
Unemployment at the years
beginning is far less serious than
most people anticipated before
VI, while "at the same time
production In many lines is
picking up only slowly" Hin
richs said.
The early months of 1916 will
continue to be marked by "busi-
ness caution" the commissioner
predicted. There is inevitable
uncertainty with p e ct to
prices, wages and other costs,
and programs for the delivery
of materials and parts. This
makes for difficulty in the for
mutation of production programs
and the negotiation of contracts.
This process of feeling out the
economic situation that existed
also after the last war, seems to
be a more significant and per-
sistent cause of delay in recon-
version than either the wave of
industrial disputes or the lack
of interest of businessmen in
sales during 1945 that would
added little to net profits after
taxes.
New Job Outlook
1T thus appears almost cer-
tain," declared Hinrichs, that
new jobs will develop .omewhat
more slowly than men are de-
modified.
Current figures on unemploy-
ment do not show the full
d | m n ions of our need for
additional jobs, however. There
is evidence that returning vet
Grams are taking well-earned va
cations and are looking around
before reporting themselves as
looking for work. So also are
some of those laid off from war
jobs.
We must therefore" Hin
richs continued, anticipate a
decrease in the number report
ing themselves as not in the Ia
Dor force and a corresponding
increase in the number looking
for work. The total of current
unemployment plus prospective
job seekers, who are not imme-
diately available for employ
ment but will be entering the
labor force in coming months, is
therefore about 3,500,000.

COZ C MET AT NOON LUNCHEON SATURDAY

The VIVA Chamber of Com merce met at a noon luncheon Sat urday with several guests present.
 Duke Mitrovich, vice-president, presided at the meeting. A Polet brought up the subject of a perm anent paid secretary for the Alas ka Planning Board to be estab- lished in Nome, with the possibil- ity of the Nome Chamber paying part of the office expense in order that more of the necessary work of the Board and Chamber could be accomplished.
 A communication from the board manager was read, in which he asked for catalogue of busi- nesses in Nome and the Second Division for use in the Juneau of flee to be used as guide for recommendations in answering Outside requests for information regarding the Territory.
 A. Polet asked the Chamber to endorse the renewing of activities of the Northwestern Alaska Fair Association in backing a plan to hold fair during April of this year.
 Following the reading of com munications, the president was re- quested to appoint a permanent Tourist Committee in order to have more complete information on the points of interest and ac- commodations in the Division.
 The visitors were then called upon. Herbert Mcclellan, Rein deer Unit Manager of Kotzebue explained the willingness of the Kotzebue people to cooperate in

Fairbanks Suffers Worst Fire In Its History

FAIRBANKS, Jan. 7-(P)-The worst fire in forty years destroyed four wooden business buildings in the heart of Fairbanks Saturday night, causing a loss of over half million dollars, wiping out a hardware store, two cocktail bars, a liquor store, barber shop, and meat market before the fire was controlled.
 The fire was finally brought un- der control after two hours work by the Fairbanks and Ladd Field firemen and scores of volunteers in fifteen below zero cold. Four other wooden buildings in the same block were saved when the path of the flames was blocked by the Empress Theater, the first con- crete structure in Fairbanks.
 The Lavery building, adjoining the fire on the other side, housing seven businesses and several of- fices, was saved by strenuous work, but much damage was suf- fered by the stock, which had to be moved to the other side of the street.
 The fire began, from an un- known cause, between the Patton Hardware and the Mecca Bar. Ex- ploding ammunition on the hard ware store shelves kept firemen at bay, and stray slugs broke three plateglass windows across the street, while the flames spread rapidly. Half of the town was in darkness due to interruption of electric circuits. No one was in jured.

busting practices and policies OF

Morse did not spare organized
labor in his criticism, especially
taking issue with the attitude
which "holds that no labor leg
islation whatsoever should be
passed" Labor leaders who take
position, he argued are helping
neither labor nor their friends
in Congress.
"The danger is" said Morse,
as manifested in the Case Bill
and in the presidents unconsti-
tutional emergency legislation,
that if the public is once greatly
aroused it is likely to 60 to ex-
tremes and in the midst of hys-
terra is likely to back legisla-
ton to wreck labor"
Morse stated flatly that II am
opposed to every feature of the
Case Bill because the Case Bill

civil and property rights of both
labor and business" 1t would

Meanwhile, it now appears
that the Case bill, while it was
