COURT FILLED WITH FILLING QUERIES IN
 SMITH DAIRY CASE

IeStlmony regarding conuemna- tion proceedings against the Smith Dairy property near 18th Street and the Glacier Highway, now in its second day before District Judge George w. Folta, was this morning literally filled with fill"
 The Juneau Independent School District inaugurated suit to obtain the property to erect a new grade school. Defendants are the Smith family and the Russian Greek Orthodox Church. which owns a portion of the property sought for the school.
 Francis Smith, his brother Ted, and their mother, Mrs. Frances Smith, were on the stand all morn- ing and some of the afternoon an- swering questions concerning the amount of filled land on the prop erty, when the fills were made, where, and how deep.
 Most of the property was filled with tailings from the Alaska Ju- neau Mine. with billings driven prior oo some portions.
 Judge Folta insisted the extent of the fill be determined, although both sons testified much of it was begun before their time. They were allowed to use hearsay evidence on he factor.
 The extent of filling is important because all tidelands remain prop erty of the federal government, al- though private individuals and firms may use it and make im- provements upon it.
 William L. Paul, Jr., is attorney for the Russian church. Although with the Smiths in fighting con- iemnation by the school board. Paul became involved in prolonged argu- nents with M. E. Monagle, repre- ,enting the Smiths. over a tract of land Paul alleged was jumped" by he family when they rebuilt fence few years ago.
 Paul asked Ted Smith if records were available for transactions made over the years by the family in regard to the property. Monagle challenged him by charging he was on a fishing expedition" in looking for a claim against the estate.
 He wants to prove that leases were made by the family" said Monagle.
 Judge Folta suggested that re- cords of rent payments could be found among the family records, but Monagle objected it would take too long. He was ordered by the court to produce what records he could by tomorrow morning.
 Paul and the younger Smith went ound-and-round for while over these records, but eventually got back to the omnipresent fill" situ- ation again.
 Both Smith sons took most of the morning drawing crayon marks on maps produced by both sides show ing what extent of land had been filled, where certain roads lay, and other work done on the site. Mrs. Smith was to resume her testimony this afternoon. She is the guardian of Sidney Smith, also a defendant in the case, and admin istratrix of the estate.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX
 FOR ALA5kANS PUT. UNDER CHALLENGE.

Should AlaSkans pay federal in- come taxes?
 Several officials of the Territory think not, because Alaska has no representation in Congress; they point out that's how the United States got started: no taxation without representation.
 Neil Moore, deputy auditor for
 the Territory, recently fired letter concerning this problem to the collector of internal revenue in Tacoma, Wash. and received a vague reply, not answering defi- mite questions which Moore put forth.
 Moore took his question to sev- eral attorneys employed by Alaska and they said he might have something there"
 No one apparently ever before examined the problem enough to take it into legal channels, Moore said, but he intends to pursue the fight right up to the top, if need be.
 Moore bases his contention that Alaskans should be exempt from not only wage withholding taxes, but corporation and other federal taxes as well, on the fact that Puerto Rico, also Territory, pays only a few dollars to the Internal Revenue Department, apparently from channels with headquarters in the states. And she eletcs her own governor.
 In 1949, Alaska, with only slightly more than 10000 population, paid $14, ,206, ,488 in personal income taxes, and total of more than $18,00O,000 in all federal taxes. But Puerto Ricans paid out only $31 ,975 in income taxes, with a population of 2,150,000, three-quar- ters of them white, with the re- mainder native. Total amount of taxes that rich little territory paid was slightly more than $2,000,000, or around $1 per person.
 In Alaska the per capita tax approaches SIS.
 Moore pointed out in his letter that Amendment 16 of the consti- tuition allows income tax to be
 collected without census being taken, but nothing altered the
 law that people must be repre- sented before they can be taxed" Besides, Alaska was a Territory when the income law was first passed during the Wilson admins tration, and had nothing to say about it-like the 48 states did. A reply from s. J. Kalivas, con- fierce for Collector Clark Squire, said in part:
 Our reply is based strictly on the Internal Revenue Code . as to the broader implications of your letter, we suggest you contact your delegate in Congress who may be able to give you the laws constitutionality as it applies to Alaska"
 Kalivas, after declaring the code included all territories, wound up with: your contention that resi- dents of territories occupy the same status as citizens of possessions of the United States is erroneous" Moore said apparently the laws application to Alaska was never
 tested before simply because no one gave it any thought-or if they did. they weren't legally trained. He means to carry the battle forward until a definite decision lis reached-and as far as it looks
 now, he believes that Alaskans might be excused from income taxes.
