| Delinquent Tax Laws
Held Unfair 10 Owner
IBy Citizens Group

D. F. Foley startled fellow men,
bers of the North Randle Com
munity Association last night by
telling them they could lose
whatever property they might
own, owing to an oversight on
their part, under the Districts
present delinquent tax laws.
"A man could overlook delin-
quent tax notice-it happens
every year-and after one noti-
f1cation the District sells a Ger
tiflcate on the property for the
value of the delinquent tax" Mr..
Foley said.
1.-TWO years after that, the man
loses his property. without any
further notice. unless the delin-
quent tax is paid to the person or
concern that holds the certificate,
at 1917 per cent interest,"" he
added.
Mr.. Foley thought property
holders should have more protec-
ton In the form Of notifications
and warnings before property is
sold for delinquent taxes. He
also thought that. II there is 60
ing to be any interest paid on
delinquent taxes, the District
should get it.
Members of the association
agreed. They passed a resolution
requesting a revision Of the laws.
A. c. Edwards. president, told
association members about the
trouble caused persons going to
work by public clocks which all
give different times.
incorrect clocks are just as
unfair as fraudulent scales in a
market" he said. "Our time is
valuable. and we don't want to be
cheated out of 1t by incorrect
clocks"
The association passed a motion
asking the commission for a law
requiring that all clocks either
give the public the correct time
or be covered. The motion was
passed. ,
An American panoramic movie
and movie on telephone courtesy
was shown to the group and 80
neighborhood children who were
invited.
The meeting was held in the
Kimball School, Minnesota avenue
and Ely place Sc.

or since," he said. Such reports
he branded as complete false

Mr.. Kline also was asked why
he did not invite Mr.. Brannan
to speak to the federation's annual
convention last month in Chicago.
Mr.. Brannan first brought up the
question Of why he was not per-
mitted to address the convention
on his farm plan, Mr.. Kline said

BY the Associated Press

LONDON, Sept. 14.-Britain has
halted the supply Of high-priority
arms to all countries outside the
Atlantic pact group and the Brit
ish Commonwealth, official sources
said last night.
Egypt has been informed that
contracts for British jet-propelled
aircraft and other short supply
materials needed to stiffen the de-
lenses of the Western Allies have
been temporarily suspended. the
informant added. Other coun-
tries believed affected by the gen.
eral ban include Sweden. Greece,
Turkey, Jordan and Iraq.
The ban applies to those coun-
tries which have been receiving
arms from Great Britain or which
have placed orders for such high
priority material. The Soviet
Union does not have orders for
arms nor has it been receiving any
from this country.
Only Egypt Getting Jets.
The Egyptians were told Of the
British decision. by Ambassador
Sir Ralph Stevenson Monday.
Egypt at the moment is the only
country getting British jets.
Prime Minister Attlee laid down
British policy on arms sales when

action has been or will be taken"
to insure that the highest priority
in the supply OF war materials
will be given to members Of the
12-nation North Atlantic treaty
organization and the countries Of
the commonwealth.
Apart from jet aircraft, mate
rial to fall under the British ban
was said to include radar equip
ment, the new Centurion tanks
and various kinds of artillery, in
Guiding anti-aircraft guns.
Collective Decision Cited.
The informants said the action
is in accord with a collective de-
cision reached by all the Atlantic
allies. Other arms-producing ma
tons in the group-like the United
States. Canada, Belgium, and
France-presumably will impose a
similar embargo. even If it is a
temporary one, these sources said.
The Ministry Of Supply, which
controls arms production in this
country. has been ordered to hold
up execution Of all foreign con-
tracts which involve materials
urgently needed either by this
country, its Atlantic allies or its
Commonwealth partners.

 sion was held as to why the gov ernment should operate in com petition to established commer- cial lines, thereby reducing the tonnage to this area and increas- ing the costs. It was planned to further study the economy of the project.
 A letter of appreciation was sent to the Fur Rendezvous for it's reception of our basketball team and native entertainers and for Anchorage's fine hospitality.
 A letter was read from A. Polet concerning the growing interest in tourist traffic which has developed in the Territory since it was launchen by the Northwestern Alaska Chamber of Commerce several months ago and the desire of groups in several towns to CO., operate in the fullest for the de- velopment of winter tourist trade.
 It was agreed to have a paid secretary for the Chamber of Commerce to take care of the huge volume of correspondence handled by the organization. Mrs. Lossee has been hired and will have an office in the Wien Bldg.

Statehood Vote Most Gratifying Says Cruening

FAIRBANKS (P) - Alaska's s government-appointed Gov. Err nest H. Gruening commented here that favorable House action on statehood was most gratifying"
 In statement, the governor said:
 "This vote is merely a recog- nition of the oldest of American principles-that of government by the consent of the governed.
 "All that Alaska has been ask ing for is full equality of citizen ship, which should be every Americans birthright.
 There is no place in our coun- try for second class citizens, and Alaska has been under the flag for 82 years and has more than served its period of tutelage.
 Actual benefits to the United States of admitting this great ter ritory as a state will be even greater than the benefits to Alas ka. It will mean development of not merely the greater bulwark of defense for the whole hemisphere, but of successful establishment of the example of the American way of life in the northern latitude, and with development of the most effective answer to the police ideal just across the Boring"
