 The statistics may have value in attracting little more attention to the status of education in this country but otherwise it is hard to any purpose being served by the debate the respective mounts spent for education liquor and cigarettes
 At first glance two and half billion dollars spent for education looks paltry beside the nine billion for ouor and fcu billion for cigarettes but second and successive glances bring increasing doubt that the figures prove anything.
 The first inference is that some of the money that goes tor liquor should go for schooling instead That idea already being carried out by the heavy impost of taxes on both liquor and cigarettes. The share of this tax that gees for education could be increased perhaps, but that is a government budget balancing matter and has nothing to do with the man who buys the whisky or tobacco. He pays whatever tax is asked and there is reason for suggesting that he pay more than he is asked.
 Considering the question little wider basis, weighing all luxures against education it not de- batable that some education is luxury and that, on the other hand some luxuries educational. Take vacation travel for instance. What education gains from this luxury item does not show in the amount spent for formal schooling
 The figure that shows the United States Ha- ona income approportioned only Is per cent to educa tion is more appealing although it naturally does not include all the money spent for acquiring knowledge
 It is widely accepted fact that education has become A step-child in our modern world but it is love and affection such waif needs. The money will be forthco ming when that is taken care of.

NO TAX REDUCTION

President Trumans veto of the tax reduction bill means that the present high wartime taxes will con- tinue for at least another year until there is a change of administration.
 Meanwhile it is our opinion that large majority of the American public will not be entirely satisfied Paving high taxes for and the nations defense was something that the average American did not argue with Paying high taxes for government eX- ravaeance ard taxing overburdened Americans for the relief of European mfortunates is something again
 There is no question but what the tax bill veto will in ls48 veto of the pending labor bill would really do the trick.
 The tax bill which Truman tossed out the window provided reductions individual incomes from 10 to 30 per cent The President criticized the bill because if. would have lowered taxes for the high income brackets considerably However these taxes at present are upgradcd virtually the point of confiscaton now in the top brackets This tax is less of revenue producer than it is an instrument of sociaization.
 Present taxes discourage production and enter prise Economist John w. Hanes made excellent example of this testifyng before Congressional com- mittee recently He said Suppose you were offered s for your first hours work 75 cents for the second hour 40 cents for third hour and Is cents for the fourth hour how long would you work? Yet this is essentially what we ask the who guide our bus- nesses to eao when levy taxes under the present schedules"

4 Sixty-DOIlar Question
(AlaSka WeeklY)


 The Daily Alaska Fishing News of ketchikan had some rather pertinent remarks to make in a recent issue concerning the current fuss over the Pacific Explorer and it's reported competition with private operators Said the Fishing News in part:
 "A great deal of fuss is being made about NICK Beg and his cannery ship Pacific Explorer. The gov- ernment they say spent 500000o to fix the ship and outfit it. The minimum rent is only one per cent e year on this total and the Pacific Explorer is compet ing with business enterprises that not financed by the government.
 "The vessel was converted to cannery Tor use in exploring the fishery resources in Bering Sea She is now operating on in southern waters and some doubt has been expressed that she ever will 90 to Boring Sea
 "These things are all quite probably true and the outfit may do more fill the pocketbooks of Nick Beg and his associates than does to develop the Aner- can fisheries.
 Little has been said. however about $2l 587 50 that our government has spent to equip cannery and refrgerator ships for Russia Twentysix Soviet fish ing vessels have been converted and repaired by the United States under end-lease. They will not be used to further or develop the American fisheries and it may be that some of them will operate Tn dlrect cofnpetition with American fishermen.

MINE SAFETY LAGS

John L. Lewis, who has tried to swing the miners to the Republican party during every election since 1856, now faces an interesting sit uation at the hands of his Republi- can friends. The question is: Will the Republicans give him the mine safety bill he has been demanding?
 For good many years. Lewis has been trying to pass an adequate mine-safety bill-without success About once a year public indigna- tion gets aroused over a horrible mine tragedy, after which public apathy sets in and no mine- safety bill is passed.
 Real fact is that most of the mine operators don't want Federal in spectlon of their mines, or a really alright mine-safety bill.
 At this Congressional session, however, definite action was hoped for
 Three mine-sa safety bills have been introduced: two by Republican Con- gressman Gerald Landis of Indiana, a former coal miner; one by Demo- cratic Senator Harley Kilgore of West Virginia, long known as the miners best friend in Congress. As a reward for his friendship, however, Kilgore was vigorously opposed by Lewis at the last election.
 When the two Landis bills came before Republican Congressman Max Schwage of Missouri, chairman of labor subcommittee, however, he decided to consult Speaker Joe Martin and COP leader Charley Halleck of Indiana. They hesitated. The coal operators lobby is strong, and one Of their arguments, incl dentally, is that used by the Demo- crats-interference in states rights.
 So despite the public outcry dur ing the Centralia tragedy, it doesn't look likely that a mine-safety bill will be passed by the Senate.
 In the Senate, there is a better chance. Senators Dworshak of Idaho and Gordon of Oregon, Re- publicans, both indicate support for Kilgore's safety bill.
 ! However, one interesting political question mark has arisen If John 1. Lewis fought the reelection of Senator Kilgore, the man who has

UNHAPPY CHANDLER

Baseball commissioner Happy Chandler, once versatile Senate debater, has been on a lot of hot spots in his day But it took the 9-year-old sen of Broadway col umnist Leonard Lyons to put him on another.
 Having heard that Leonard Ly- on's two sons were up in arms over the suspension of Brooklyn Dodg- CTS manager Leo Durocher, Happy sent the two boys note which read:
 Tt grieves me to know that you do not approve Of my action in suspending Leo Durocher But am sure that if you were familiar with all the facts, you would agree that my action was in the interest of baseball. I have no other in- terest except to preserve the in- tegrity of our national pastime."
 To which George Lyons wrote back:
 "Poppa was right in telling you that we don't think you did right in suspending Leo Durocher Poppa explained to US the part of your letter where you said I am sure that if you were familiar with all the facts that you would agree that my action was in the inerest oi baseball
