QUALIFICATION STILL LACKING,
 SAYS zEUSLER

Although the Alaska Steamship Company communicated with At torney General Ralph Rivers first on February regarding the with holding of the Alaska income tax from the wages of sailors, and has wired him since that time for a decision on the matter, no clari-
 fication has yet been made, &C.,
 cording to Adm. F. A. Zeusler, executive assistant to the president of the company.
 Since the first communication with the Attorney General, Judge Black has issued an order permit ting the company to withhold the tax but ordering that the with holdings te kept in special fund.
 MT Rivers, the Attorney Gen. eral, has reported to the press that we did not consult the proper AL aska authorities on the tax ques- tion," Adm. Zeusler stated.
 We were under the impression that the Attorney General was the. proper authority. So far we have heen unsuccessful in getting him to give us a definite decision. At the same time the Alaska Tax Col lector, according to reports we con- tinue to receive, insists that this law applies to crews on our vessels.
 Under the circumstances we nave been obliged to comply with the clear letter of the law rather than subject ourselves to the penal ties prescribed for lack of observ- ance, and we shall continue to do so until there is proper authority for doing otherwise"

his home to raise the money.
Rev. Lewis, himself, was an i'm
portant figure in the ousting/ OF
Bishop Sims when he headed the
first district. He vigorously op-
posed the bishop.
At the time Bishop Sims was
unfrocked he threatened to start
a new church of his own, as yet,
has not done so. At the 1948 gen.
eral conference he worked in vain
to have his rights restored. He is
now merely a member of the
church.
If Rev. Lewis does buck his
church and start a new one of his
own the question will arise as to
whether his personality will pre-
vail against the power of the AME
church, one of the nations most
powerful Negro institutions.
An old saying among members
is
"Your friends and followers
may love you, but if you withdraw
and try to start your. own church
you will find that they love their
church better"
Ex-Bishop Sims needed this
warning. What will Rev. Lewis
do? Another question on this is
was Rev. Lewis too tired to con-
tinue organizing and building as
he said he was when he gave an
excuse for wanting to remain with
st. Matthews?

Road To Health
By C. A. Lawlah, M. D..

My friends four-year-old son
recently got himself into some SER
ious trouble by deliberately get
ting himself a poison ivy rash.
On the street where Bobby
lives is a large, wooded area. Since
early spring, the neighborhood
children had played there every
day, and, not long ago, every one
of them, except Bobby, got poison
ivy. The source of the trouble was
traced to the woods.
Bobby's mother at first was
thankful her child had miraculous
ly escaped. But a few days later
she was Mortified to see a severe
rash on Bobby's face, arms and
legs. One of the other children
had pointed out the poison ivy
plant to him in the woods, warn
ing him against it, but Bobby went
back later and actually rolled in
the foliage to get a rash "like the
other kids"
Bobby's rash was severe and
his mother brought him to the
doctor without delay. With proper
treatment, the rash was cleared
up in about two weeks, but Bobby
was a mighty uncomfortable little
boy during that time. Young as
he is, he has learned his lesson.
AS summer rolls round, many
people, especially children with
with their tender skins, suffer
from poison ivy rashes. Those who
