l949 Tax Refunds Exceed l948

Nearly 40 per cent more money has been refunded so far this year to individual income taxpayers in the Washington-Alaska Internal Revenue collection district than during the corresponding period last year, collector Clark Squire reported today in Tacoma.
 Refunds to 234,858 persons total $13,128,191. One year ago the re- fund amount was $9,406,306 to 193,941 taxpayers and two years ago it was $7,469,607 to 16O,OO7 taxpayers. The increases are at tributed largely to earlier filing of returns.
 The total of all federal tax col lections in this district this year is 153 million dollars as compared with 172 million a year ago and 154 million two years ago.

Census Taking I'm Alaska Will Start Early

JUNEAU - The 1850 census of Alaska will be taken as of April l, 1850, according to word received this week by the Alaska Develop ment Board from Director J. C. Capt, bureau of census, depart ment of commerce, Washington, D. C. Enumeration of certain areas of Alaska will begin at slightly earlier date to avoid delay occa- stoned by thaw conditions.
 In the past. Alaska's enumera- tion has been made in October of the year preceding that of the na- tional decennial census. The bur- eau this time will take the Alaska census at the same time the emu meration occurs nationally. For a time the date of January 1, 1850 was being considered for the Alaska census but the bureau if nally fixed on the April l date af- ter considering all the factors ir- volved in getting complete count.
 Last official census figures, from an enumeration made in 1889, listed Alaska's population at 72,524. Estimates prepared by the development board last October indicated Alaska had recorded net gain of 22.35l persons since that time, placing the total popu- lation at 94,875.

ICE POOL NEWS

NENANA - Have been wait ing. thought there would be some change in the condition of the ice, but the ice is 40 inches thick now instead of the 38 of some time ago. Have had some warm weather, but not enough to melt the snow on the river or for any water to run off of the hills, and it still looks like winter, but if it stays cold until April and then warns up we will have spring. But if it turns warm or hot it will only turn cold later on which will only retard the break up. That is my opinion.

ing devices, President Philip Muir.
ray charged in a letter to Secre-
tary of Labor Maurice Tobin.
He asked that the two states be
denied tax credits and other bene-
fits allowed states with statutes ir
conformity with federal unemploy-
ment compensation standards.
Taking the same position, Nelson
Cruikshank, the AFL's top expert
in social insurance and related
matters, said that the Washington
and California developments were
part of a national trend to make
unemployment funds yield benefits
to employers in the form of rebates
rather than benefits to workers
who need them.
The union leaders spoke up as
the first of two hearings by the
Bureau of Labor Statistics opened
here Dec. IL. Second hearing is
scheduled for Dec. 19.
Murray charged that Washing
ton and California had ruled, pro-
badly in defiance of federal law,
that unemployed union members
drawing jobless pay would be drop
ped from the rolls when a dispute
involving their union occurred.
He said that, "A worker unem-
ployed prior to a strike or lockout,
and so unemployed because of lack
of work or having nothing to do
with the. labor dispute in question,
would be dropped from the rolls.
"Were this ruling found conson-
ant with the federal law and ap-
piled generally, it would put a pre-
MUM on strike-breaking and scab-
bing. For only a worker who was
ready to scab on his fellow trade
unionists would remain eligible for
unemployment compensation"
Cruikshank said, "This is the
kind of thing we are confident will
be overruled by the Secretary of
Labor. 1t is interpretations like
these that make us feel that fed
eral system is necessary"

suggestion to our membership.
"A large increase in workers
buying power will be essential in
1850. If every worker in USA
could receive a 10-cent wage in
crease some SO billion would be
spent for living necessities. This
would be enough to reverse the
prospective downward trend of
business and start a rise. But with
lower profits in prospect for 1850,
many companies would hesitate to
give such increases unless earned
by reducing costs.
"Most American managements
have never seriously tried to coop
crate with unions by submitting
cost data and assuring union mem
bers a fair share in the saving that
could be made by joint effort to re-
duce costs. Some amazing results
would be accomplished if workers
were given week by week cost re-
cords, SO they could see the results
Of their efforts, and management
tagreed to share the savings with
them, determining the just wage
increase by collective bargaining
negotiations.

If management recognized the need
for an immediate increase in work.
ers' buying power and agreed to
such a program of cooperative eff
fort to raise wages, the battle
against business recession would
be well on the way to victory. 1t
is clear of course that wages must
be raised without causing a gen.
eral increase in living COSTS"
AS evidence that such a program
is possible, the Survey noted that
during 1949 the AFL had negotiat-
ed working agreements covering at
least 6,500,000 workers and had
won wage increases in 1882 con-
tracts. 1t said AFL negotiations
were chiefly responsible for wage
increases won this year" and they
were the first increases since the
war that had not been wiped out
by price increases.
To show that wage increases do
not increase costs, the AFL said
the building trades had raised |
wages, but labor costs had been re-
luced. 1t quoted the Wall Street
Journal and the Associated General
to back up this state
nent.
