axes Lowered

Under an act passed al the re-
cent session of the General Assem-
bly,, penalties under the motor fuel
oil tax law were lowered so often
derS may be tried in magistrates
court, a change that may result
in patrolmen making many more
cases than under the original law
where such cases had to be tried
in higher court. Chief Highway
Commissioner Claude r. Mcmillan
said today.
The original act provided maxi
mum penalties of a $500 fine or
imprisonment OF two months. This
required all cases be tried in
higher court, most of which con-
tinuously have very heavy dock
cts.
The 1854 general assembly low
cred the penalties by enacting the
following amendment, which be-
came effective March 5 when
signed by Governor Byrnes:
Any person violating any Of
the provisions OF this chapter. a
penalty for which is not otherwise
provided, shall be guilty of a mis-
demeanor and upon conviction
thereof shall be punished by a
fine OF not less than S25 nor more
than SlOO or Ivy Imprisonment for
not more than 80 days. In addi-
ton to any penalty imposed in
conformity to the above, the user
shall be required 10 pay all taxes

6-Foof Candle To Be Used ln Rally Ceremony

Iighlight of the Third Division Republican rally to be held Sat urday evening at the Elks Home will be the lighting of the Free dom Flame, it was announced to- day. The ceremony will commem- crate the birth of the Republican party, 100 years ago on March 20, 1854 in Ripon, Wisconsin.
 The Republican party was orig mated by a group of five men who had assembled in Ripon to discuss the political events of the time. The group resolved that a complete change in the political set-up should be made to further the need of the average man and from this meeting the Republican party has grown to be a domln- ant political factor in the United States.
 The Freedom Flame ceremony which will be climaxed with the lighting of a six-foot tall glow cardle will be honored by re- presentative of the Palmer Girl Scout, Palmer Boy Scouts, Vet eran of World War I and II, and Veterans of the Korean War, al- song with prominent Republicans of the area.

DEVELOPED COAL. NOT OF EXPORT GRADE

Coal in Alaska that is presently available is not of a grade the Japanese market is looking for, Wiley Robinson, chief inspector Territorial mines told members of the Matanuska Chamber of Commerce at the March IT meet ing
 Coal from the Healy river and Evan-Jones mines is not of grade desired by the Japanese. However, he stated, we do have undeveloped coal of the type they can use. Tn the Brooks Range, 100 miles or so on the coast, there IS coal of the BTU consistency de- sired. Reports show coal of a three-foot depth at the mouth of the river-also farther up the riv- CT there is a 10-foot bed and up about 25 miles there are IA more veins, one of which is 20 feet thick. That coal would meet spec ifications" he said. The coal has 14,800 BTU, ash content from five to six percent, and with very low moisture content, around two per cent, he added. "That area could easily be opened for truck haul ing,' Robinson stated. However, the Japanese are not too inter eSted in this coal because there are only two months of the year when the coal could be trans l ported.
 "One more possibility of ship ping coal to Japan exists in an even better location, where there is better coal and. a better means of transportation" he told Cham Der members. That is around the Boring river, where prospecting permits were recently renew ed by company in Wash ington, D. C." The company has indicated they intend to send an engineer to the region this sum- mer on investigation work.
 The coal in this region, Robin son went on, is pretty much brok- en up. Reports state coal in veins as much as eight feet, six inches in one bed plus seven or eight thinner beds. The coal has a high BTU of 14,770, two percent mois- ture and three percent ash.
 MT. Robinson continued with his talk on coal, touching on the Chickaloon area and pointing out that only the known coals had oeen discussed. 'There may be other coal in the Territory much better than any of this', he ad- ded. At the present time there are eight open-pit mines in operation and four underground, he report ed. A coal operator may own only one lease at a time, and IS therefore handicapped, he point ed out.
 MT. Robinson completed his i talk with the following state ment: There are probably 150- 200 miners out of work at the present. If anyone can think of anything to get additional mining work going in Alaska, they will have accomplished a great thing" ] Other visitors at the meeting Included the guest speakers wife, Mrs. Wiley Robinson, of Anch- oraoe Leonard Kyger, Curly lDoyle and Henry Leibing of Pal mer.

By the decision o1 the Board to reduce the increase tc 71a percent, we have lost 70 percent of the required additional revenue plus the loss sustained due to the boards suspension Of tariffs since the original ettec- tive date.
 However, despite this loss of revenue, Alaska Steam will at tempt to maintain the frequency of service heretofore provided, Skinner said.
 In making the announcement, steamship officials pointed out that recent reductions in many Alaska Railroad tariff items have the effect of nullifying the 712 percent increase to Alaska Rail road points.

Don't Be a Literbug" is the
slogan of the anti-litterbug
campaign. The campaign is ma
tional in scope and its purpose
is to try and stamp out the care
less habit of strewing trash on
the highways, beaches and
parks. Each club member was
urged to do everything possible
in support of this campaign and
it was suggested that if every
one would carry a container in
his or her car for scrap paper,
empty bottles, beer cans and
similar trash, and would then
empty the trash at home, our
roads would soon become clean
err, more beautiful and a credit
to the community in which we
live. 1t is urged that everyone
help with this campaign.
At the close of the business
Mrs. Marshall served
