ALASKA POPULATION FIGURES SHOW LOSS

The annual population study released by the Alaska Resource Development Board this week shows a net loss of 2,274 persons for the 1855 fiscal year.
 While these facts should be cause for sober consideration they are in large measure off set by the fact that more people are living in Alaska on year round basis" Al Anderson, ex- ecutive director of the Board said. He stated the loss was not considered too significant in view of the tremendous mobility of Alaska's population.
 The report shows that 123 ,681 civilians travelled to Alaska in 1855, and that 133,315 travelled from Alaska. The net migration loss of 9,634 persons was largely wiped out by the excess of births over deaths.
 The growing permanence of the Territory's population is borne out by increased school en- rollments, which show an in- crease from 9, ,121 for the last school year to 28,079 for this year.
 The military population of AL aska increased from 49,000 to 50-, 900 during the period covered by the report The leveling off of Alaska's population crest was first apparent in 1854 when mi grafton figures showed net loss of 355 people, the report indi- cates.
 The population study publish ed annually by the Alaska Re- source Development Board was prepared by E. ]. Huizer, re- search for the Board, and is available for public use. Copies may be secured through the of flee of the Board Of Juneau.

MSU PROFESSOR SAYS ITS BEST
NOT TO WINTER FEED DEER

The observance of March 1924 as
National Wildlife Week has made
Montanans aware of a serious prob
lem of their own. Deer in Western
Montana are now suffering the eff
fects of the severe winter, according
to Douglas L. Gilbert, assistant pro-
fessor of forestry at Montana State
University. He predicts that a die
off will occur in many areas where
lack of food has been aggravated by
deep SHOWS and low temperatures.
Malnutrition is making the deer pop
ulatoin especially susceptible to di-
seases, parasites and predators.
Many laymen, disturbed over the
prospect of starving animals, advo-
cate that the State Fish and Game
Department operate winter feeding
program; but Gilbert pointed out
that experts in wildlife management
do not recommend such a program.
He gave the following reasons for
their opposition to it:
l. The cost of labor and feed is
high. Both the money and the man
power required can be better utilized
in other types of wildlife work.
2. Feeding programs concentrate
herds in small areas and so increase
the chance of epidemics. Greater de-
mands are also made on the available
browse in the areas.
3. Feeding results in more deer
being carried over to the next year
to reproduce. This condition only ag-
gravates the winter range problem in
subsequent years as there will be
more deer and less winter fed.
4. Artificial feeding reaches only
a small portion Of the herd. The main
population receives no benefits. Of |
the small portion reached, few
dominant animals get the lions
share.
5. Animals will continue to die
anyway unless natural browse is
available to some extent to supple
nent the hay. Deer can die of starva-
ion with stomach full of hay.
6. Wild animals are pauperized or
by an artificial feed
ng program; thus the purpose of
wildlife is defeated.

Third Annual Indian Institute
April 11-13, In MissoUiu

| Institute, according to DR.. Tascher,
is to let the Indian know that other
people are interested in his problems
and want to cooperate with him in
solving them.
DR.. Tascher pointed out that COM
plete assimilation of the Indian into
the white culture is questionable. He
feels that the Indian should adopt
those parts of the white culture that
would be useful to him, but that he
should also try to maintain his iden-
It'll as an Indian. He should not aban-
don his own heritage but should seek
his rightful place as both an Indian
and an American citizen.
Registration for the Institute be-
gins at am, Wednesday, April Il
and ends at 5 pm, April 13.
Two of the three days of work
packed sessions will end with special
features:
Wednesday at pm. a Public Re-
ception with Indian leaders as hosts,
Thursday at 5 80 pm. a Beef Bar
beque, and at 1880 a Ku Nuk Sin
Blackfoot word for Festival-will fea-
ture Indian arts, dancing and music.
Luncheon each day will be held in
the Lodge on the campus at which
time special events will take place.
Basic problem areas under discus
sion at sessions will be: Law and
Order, Education, Health and Eco
nomic Welfare, with Indian leader
ship and participation throughout
from both adult and youth.

representatives of seven Montana
Indian tribes and the landless Indians
will converge on the Montana State
University campus next month to
set up tepees on the oval in prepare
tion for the third annual Institute
on Indian Affairs to be held in Mis-
soula, April 11-13.
The Institute is sponsored by the
Montana Committee on Human Rela-
tions and administered by the Com
munity Services Laboratory of the
University's Department of Sociology,
Anthropology, and Social Work. DR..
Harold Tascher, director of the In
stitute and associate professor of
Social Work at MSU, explained that
the Committee on Human Relations
is voluntary statewide organiza-
ton that came into being as result
of the first Institute on Indian At
fairs in 1854. 1t was organized and
is operated with the active support
of the seven tribal councils in Mon
tana and of the state Inter-Tribal
Policy Board, a co-ordinating and
leadership body.
Speaking of the causes of the In
dams grievances that account for
his. inadequacies and problems, Dr.
Tascher said, ''The Indian is an Amer
lean citizen. He has had some tough
breaks. His culture is different from
the white mans. 1t has been difficult
for him to adjust to the white mans
growing economy"

Asian Numbers To
Grow Sharply

Asia's population, now 1920 mil
ion, can be expected to reach figure
at some point between 1876 million
and 1927 million by 1880.
The United Nations Population
Branch laid this forecast on the table
as one prospect to be discussed at
population seminar in Bundang, In
donesia.
Other facts to be considered are
that more than half the worlds popu-
lation lives in Asia and that it is still
an area of high fertility rate and
declining, though still high, rate of
mortality.
Population problems are being
considered in the seminar in relation
to manpower, employment, public
health, education, housing, consump-
ton, investment, and the level of
living.

mitted. Pipelines and tankers should
be divorced from the oil companies
and operated as common carriers,
like the railroads."
On one hand, this vast fixing
system enables the Oil Trust compa-
MES to make fantastic profits. On
the other hand, they pay little taxes
on these profits because of the special
loopholes in the tax law. Is it any
wonder that oil and natural gas mag
mates can afford to spend almost any
amount of money contributing to the
funds of reactionary candi-
dates and otherwise corrupting poll

dents (such as highway kills) when
feeding occurs close to the road, as
it usually does in artificial feeding
as the hay must be spread in places

obviously, the only solution is
to crop the herds down to the size
that the winter range can support"
Gilbert said. "The Montana Fish and

this reduction about with liberal sea-
sons and bag limits. They should be

in 1854 reveals that 1876 paid SIS or more
but 968, or over half of them, paid but SIS
which means they operated at loss in Mon
tana. This has been going on for years under
the present law.
A completely new corporation income tax
law with rates in proper ratio to individual
income tax rates should come first Next an
adjustment in both the individual and cor
poration tax rates could then be made to alb
sorb the burden of new taxes required in 1857.
A tightening of belts in all state depart
mentS will also be necessary, for economy is
still one of our greatest sources of revenue
Some revision in other levies will be neces-
sary also but the above mentioned are the
most important An orderly and firm ap-
proach as outlined above will obviate the
need for sales tax at this time, as was sug-
gested at the last session.
Let's take a quick glance at the Montana
tax story over the years.
Property, of course, was number one on
the list and then the DEATH or inheritance tax
added about the turn of the century. A
rest was enjoyed then until 1913 when the
noisy automobile insisted that it be taxed
and counted. Another shorter lull and the
corporation license tax was added in 1917. i
(At one per cent rate, with ample eXemp-
tions allowed, this tax produced q of mil
porting. Under the present rate of 3 per cent,
without exemptions, this tax in 1866 produced
S1,600,000 with 1900 corporations report
ing) Qn other words one per cent tax rate
in 1917 produced more money from 500 cor
porations than a 1 per cent tax rate produced /
in 1866 from 1900 corporations.)
In 1921 the highway problem demanded
serious attention and the gasoline license tax
came into existence Another rest of twelve
years this time, and the individual income
tax, and liquor monopoly bills became law |
in 1888. Not until 1947 was the cigaret sales S
tax law passed.
Many other small levy bills were slipped :
in between but the major taxes as listed above I
produced the bulk of the revenue. p

is the tax laws we try to administer for the q
operation of State government in 1856. Don't !

oil companies, limit total production
to or below market demand
A. '"The monthly forecasts of mar

reau of Mines of the Department of

All this interlocking machinery,
Hadlick says, holds down production
so the big oil companies won't have
to cut prices and give consumers a
break. Also, eff all else fails, the big
integrated companies limit the sup

lines"
When anyone proposes government
regulation Of the prices of oil and

lists for the big integrated companies.
But they like the elaborate govern

cause it's regulation to maintain the
fat profits they made by monopolistic
price fixing.

How does "Big OiI' hold its mighty
power over Congress, the u. S. gov
eminent and foreign governments?
Part of the answer is pointed out in
an article put before the Senate by
Senator Thomas C. Hennings Cd
Mo-. The article was written by a
man who knows the oil business from
the inside. He is Paul E. Hadlick, gen
eral counsel of the National Oil Mar
keters Association.
The latter represents Independent
business men who sell oil products,
and find themselves increasingly
squeezed" by what Hadlick calls the
"big integrated companies" They are
the giant combines which produce
oil, transport it by their ships and
pipelines, refine it and distribute the
products to the consumers. In part,
Hadlick says:
There is a mechanism controlling
the production of crude oil that OPP
crates as smoothly as the finest watch.
The legislation and regulations car
rying out this gigantic scheme to
fleece the public are as follows:

1857 will be the year of decision for Mon
tana taxpayers. Through their representa-
tives they must be realistic about problems
that can no longer be avoided or deferred
In 1855, the Session closed with a gap be-
tween revenues and appropriations definitely
on the red-ink side. In spite of that our gen.
eral fund balance as of February 20, 1856
is some 100000 higher than at the same
period year ago. A combination of things
made that possible. The Withholding clause
of the individual income tax makes possible
a collection of three years individual taxes
of all kinds over the state, and finally 1866
was an exceptional business year
The first two items mentioned are non
recurring. 1t is anybodys guess as to what
1856 will be in the way of a business year.
In 1857 firm demands on the state for
education alone will have increased at least
ten million dollars This, in addition to the
gap as mentioned above, will create need for
some fifteen million dollars in revenue.
Where to get it is the problem. The old stand
by, property, will catch the tax eye first,
with proposed ten mill levy to replace the
present expiring six mill levy for university
purposes. Total collections over the state
from property owners last year were sixty
eight million dollars which is an excess of ten
million dollars on property alone. Property,
therefore, should not only be by-passed, but
should have part of this excess burden trans
ferred to another tax base.
Next is the individual income tax With
the new law written at the last Session COM
bined with the withholding clause everyone,
we feel is paying their fair share under pres
ent rates. This is the fairest tax of all as far
as the individual is concerned and can be in
creased considerably to absorb part of this
additional burden.
CorpOration income tax on the other hand
is not now carrying its proper share, nor can
it be made to do so under the present law.
We therefore need completely new corpora
ton income tax law, law that will properly
reach every corporation, both foreign and
domestic, to make them assume their share
of the responsibility for the operation of the
state through good times and bad.

eign corporations doing business in Montana
