INCOME TAX SHOWS
 INCREASE THIS YEAR

TACOMA - Collection of Income tax from individuals in Washing ton and Alaska during the first II months of this year is up $25, ,00O,- 900 over collections for the cor responding period last year, accord ing to Internal Revenue Collector Clark Squire in Tacoma.
 Despite this increase in collec- tions from individuals the gross revenue for the district has drop ped $17OOO,0OO. Collections of all federal taxes up to December toe tailed $475,423.O00 as compared with s492.639, ,O0O for the first II months of 1946. The decline is due to elimination of the excess profits tax. In I946 the taxs on excess profits amounted to SIT, ,443,0OO. Early this year $1O.710.00O was collected, mostly from taxpayers operating on a fiscal year basis.
 Withholding tax collections have increased $15,762,00O during the 11-month period-from Sl5l,-192,- 900 to SI66,954,O0O. Income taxes collected from individuals by means other than withholding have ln- creased rom $l32,gO9,OOO to $14z,- 185, 1000, a gain of S9,276,O00.

 When Adam sinned. he cut him self and all his posterity off from life Gen 2:17; 3:17-79; Jer. 5s % .1.2. Had not God interposed with His plan of salvation, man would have died an eternal death, with out any hope and no resurrection.

 Another evidence that Jesus did nOt die because of the physical sui fering on the cross was this: The Jews were formally scrupulous a. bout keeping the Sabbath. so they requested to have the legs broken of those who were crucified but after breaking the legs of the thieves they came to Jesus and found, to their surprise, that Jesus was dead already. John 19.31-34; Mark l5:42-45. A soldier thrust spear into Jesus side and forth with came there out blood and water Jesus died of a broken heart.
 Dear reader, Jesus suffered viz carious sufferings. It was your sins and mine that broke His heart. Can you turn away from such a friend? There has not a man on earth died the death that Jesus died.

 o. What was the underlying cause of the death of Christ?
 4. Many people think that Christ died BECAUSE he was nail ed to the cross. THIS IS NOT TRUE. Christ would have died without having been hurt by any human hand. Let Us note a few Scriptures. He lChrist1 was wounded for our transgressions. He was bruised for our iuiquities: the chastisement of our peace was up on Him; and with His stripes we are healed.

BY Miss Mary Hix
The peoples of the world must
learn to live together as friendly
neighbors; that is the route to
peace. In a world as inter-de-
pendent as our world. where all
people work for their living, it is
important to know and under
stand each other. We find as
time goes one, that people are
becoming more and more alike.
Throughout the world people
live in similar manner. Man
nerisms and customs, styles in
dress, games and dances are no
longer confined to one country
Radio, television and moving
pictures are uniting and bring
ing US closer together. Our A
merican Hello" and 80. X"
have become international
words.
Since we are one world and
one people striving toward a
richer and fuller way of living
we would like to ask ourselves
what avenues toward coopera-
ton are open for US. United
Nations. Unesco and the recon-
struction projects of voluntary
agencies are certainly aiding in
a better understanding of world
affairs. Local communities are
the starting points for democra-
tic living. The home, school,
church, radio, press and other
forces in American life share re-
sponsibility for promoting broth
erhood. Schools and colleges are
helping to improve community
relations, national unity, and
world good will through inter-
cultural education and interna-
tional activities.
Our children are not too young
to understand international re-
lations. 1t is as necessary to
American children to understand

Arctic Tragedy

OSLO. - Skeletons of 10 in
dividuals. including those of
two children, have been found
by the crew of the Norwegian
vessel "Sveip" in a stone hut on
the north Canadian coast, ac-
cording to a report from Ber-,

Recently returned from shark
fishing in the Davis Straits be-
tween Greenland and Canada's
Baffin Island, the crew reports
that it is impossible to deter
mine whether the victims were
Canadian trappers or a group
of Eskimos who had attempted
to winter on the barren coast.
The disaster evidently occurred
some time ago, and the hut was
discovered only by accident
when the ship put in to the
Cumberland coast to repair a
motor.
Cooking equipment, rifles,
shells, and pocket Bibles in Eng
fish were brought back to aid
in identifying the remains. Sew

ceased were whites or eskimoes.
