Nest Egg" would be handy now
pFRTSCOPF


Nest Egg would be handy now
 As of August 81 in this year of 1g53 Territorial Treasurer Henry Roden reported net cash balance in the treasury of $11,725,581.89. or this amount, the general fund of the Territory had a neat net balance of $11,475.372.42 which isn't hay in anybody's language.
 During the last session of the Territorial legislature Senator John Butroyich of Fairbanks and Senator James Nolan of Wrangell introduced into the legislative hopper a measure proposing to set aside a million dol lars a year or two million for the biennium in a reserve fund until such time as ten million dollars had been reserved. Its purpose was to build up a fund in more or less prosperous times to meet contingent. eies which might arise should the economic picture change and tax re- turns to the Territory taper off. It became known as the nest egg" bill.
 The measure, commendable as a good piece of business judgment, won favor with the Senate but ran into a political road block in the House. Sentiment had been abuilding for repeal of the controversial gen eral property tax which had spent virtually all it's life time in the courts. Repeal movement in the House was led by Speaker George Miscovich of Senator Butrovich s home Division, the Fourth. At the time it was generally accepted the repeal action would carry as it ulti~. mately did. However, Senator BUtrO- vieh did not favor repeal. He be- lieyed that the property tax could be made workable, it's objectionable features removed and frankly stated so.
 The ultimatum to the Senator went something like this:
 Either you vote for repeal of the property tax or no nest egg bill goes through the House."
 And so it came to pass. The pro. perty tax law was repealed; the nest egg gasped it's last in the House. ..-.. .-a |
 Now with nearly 12 million sim cleans in the Territory's coffers, the economic picture changes. Al, aska has experienced one of it's poorest fishing seasons on record, the second in succession for South ! east Alaska particularly. Already conferences are in the making to consider a works program or some such activity to assist those hardest hit by the fishing failure. Some communities, depend solely on the fishing industry, are reported in rather dire circumstances.
 A movement is underway to try and obtain an extension of the fall fishing season so that fishermen may have another try at making few dollars to carry them through the slack months ahead. Request is being made for opening of the trapping season, normally closed this year, as another possible alternative to re-. lieve the economic pressure.
 A works program, such as build. ing roads, improving harbors and so on, would necessarily require money from some source.
 It strikes us that had the so-called nest egg bill been put into operation, it's provisions would have come in mighty handy to meet condition which may well develop into an emergency before the winter is over.

4 the May level.
Individual prices have not stood
still. Farm prices are down. and
so are foods. Major metals are
more costly. Weaknesses may
spread. but the absence of a gen.
eral price decline rather argues
that business will improve instead.
COFFEE CHANGES - In view
Of the long popularity Of coffee in
the American home one would ex-
pect coffee drinkers to be firmly
set in their purchasing and drink
ing habits of this favorite bever-
age. The reverse is the actual
case.
Just in the last year, the Ameri-
can Can Company found in a sur
vey of buying habits, families TAX
ing home their coffee in vacuum
packed cans rose from Sis per
cent of all questioned, to 54.5 per
cent. Instant coffeeS show a mark
ct rise to 1877 per cent-doubling
the proportion held in 1850. Coffee
in paper hit new low of 25.6 per
cent-a one-quarter drop from
three years ago.
Over a longer period, the trend
to vacuum-packed coffee in cans
Is steady; can sales have increased

WHAT MAKES SALES? - An
inconclusive argument went on
around New York last week until
the end of the newspaper strike
make the question merely acade-
mic:
What happened to New York
department stores sales as result
of the strike which saw the seven
daily papers disappear from the
newstands?
Sales totals were down per
cent from 1852 levels, in the week
ending December 5. That much is
certain. The week earlier the de-
cline had been per cent. So
Did Christmas seasonal pulling
power outweigh the loss of visible
advertising? Did radio and tele-
vision fill the gap? Did the Sunday
editions of November 20, which
appeared in curtailed form, pull
customers through the ensuing
week?
Continuance of the strike would
have given some fairly definite
answer to those questions, but no
one was that eager to learn them.

Business

NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-two of
the more sensitive barometers of
economic change, the stock market
and the wholesale price index,
have not only refused to foresha-
dow a downturn, but have been
reluctant to reflect even the de-
cline which has already taken
place in U. S. industrial produc-
ton.
The Federal Reserve Board in
dex of production is down nearly
7 per cent from its post-Korean
peak of 243 reached last March.
The wholesale price index, which
in March stood at ITO per cent of
the 1947-49 average, has just been
calculated at 1899 for November.
The most commonly used index
of stock prices, the Dow-Jones In
duStrial Average, did fall 20 points
from May to June, before induSt-
rial weakness actually developed.

Mackenzie, president of the Uni

complaints that Canadian univer-

ther tongue either in writing or
speech are "tOo widespread to be
treated lightly"
And he thinks at least part of
the blame is buck passing by some
university departments.
In his annual report on UBC
activities, DR.. Mackenzie says,
departments of English have the
major responsibility for the study
of English literature as a body of
knowledge but should have no
more responsibility than other de-
partments for the study of English
as the language of instruction"

should she be? If you haven't
shown willingness to date her and
see her only when you visit their
home, she certainly must not take
you for granted. It would be silly
for you to give her a gift. There

something, if you feel like it.

Santa is loaded with Christmas
mail from his little sn5w-belles
and rain-dears, to say nothing of
the queries he gets from puzzled
student princes.
Girl and boy relationships create
confusion for the date-bait set at
any time of the year But all the
more at holiday time when the un-
certainties of the puppy-lOve world
are in a whirl of mistletOe and tin
sci.
OF St Nick is always willing
TO help his Christmas angels keep
Their wings shiny, so here's how
he and Mrs. Claus solve SOME
problems:
Owe been going out with a
girl for six months, not steady, but
at frequent intervals. What kind of
gift can / give her that will not ap-
pear too personal?
A.-Perfume is an ideal gift be-
cause it has a personal touch but
is not too persOnal-if the quantity
given is small. A large expensive
bottle, however, puts the gift in
another category
:. "a girl who is new in our set
is giving a Christmas party for our
own crowd. Does this mean that
gift should be brought for each
person invited to the party, for the
hostess alone, or for no one?
A.-Whatever gift is given the
hostess should be small, and it
should certainly not be necessary
to give all the guests a gift. Lots
of fun, however, is the idea of the
Christmas grab bag. Consult the
hostess and suggest that each in
vited guest might enjoy bringing
little gift for the grab bag. There
should be a maximum amount
stressed for the gift so that some
do not bring too expensive presents.
GA girl friend of mine who
lives in another city has invited
me to spend the holidays with her.
I would like to go but hesitate to
tell my family They will be disap-
pointed if I don't spend Christmas
Day with them.
A.-Why can't you spend the day
with your family, and visit your
friend the following days. One
missing chick in a family away
from the fireside can put a damper
on everybOdy's fun. You'd miss
your family, too, when you observe
the family happiness of the other
household.
Q.-I became great friends with
my Army buddy. Now that we are
both out, we see a good deal of
each other. He is engaged to be
married, and has his guns sighted
for match between his sister and
me. have given him gifts on spec
ial days, but I feel strange about
it now. I expect to spend Christ
mas Day with his family and should
bring his mother a little token, too.
