Economist Sees
 ESC Tax Deterrent To Alaska Industry

KETCHIKAN, R1 - The Terri torial Employment Security tax was described here Friday as an important factor in discouraging year around industries from es- tablishing in Alaska.
 Prof. William J. Stanton of the University of Colorado told the Alaska Chamber of Commerce convention delegates the law should be rewritten. He said it needs a provision for handling seasonal industries and that can- ming and construction industries could be declared seasonal.
 Stanton conducted an economic survey in Alaska for the Bureau of Employment Security in 1854 In Fridays address the market ing specialist listed factors which he said could influence location of year around industry in the territory but emphasized the de- terring effect of the employment security tax.
 He said the situation is such that two thirds of the benefits paid under the employment secur- ity law go to employees in seasonal industries, while only one-third of the contributions to the fund come from those sources.
 Stanton said Alaska's employ ment security tax is the highest in effect in the nation. He held hopes for a reduction when sea- sonal industries are classified as such under the tax.

coffee for the old folks, tea for the young.
 Bangkok housewives have al- ready had their breakfast of rice and shrimp curls and have been out shopping since dawn, padding their sampans down the canals of the Chao Phya River to bargain with the floating markets selling vegetables, fish and fruits.
 In Perth, Western Australia, it's g a.m, the office workers are just signing in, and the early shoppers queuing at Woolworth's to get the bargain specials. It's g in Hong Kong, Manila and Formosa too. The Hong Kong free-port shops are wide open for business-and many tailor is 'bleary-eyed, hav- ing been up all night making a suit for some hurry-up tourist.
 In Manila, the daily cruise boat is pulling out for Corregidor, and up in the hills many Filipinos are ankle deep in the watery rice fields.
 It's midmorning in Tokyo. The bosses are just coming to work, and their secretaries have the tea pot brewing In Melbourne and Sydney offices, it's the same story, and the Australian housewife, who downs some Is cups of tea per day, is on her fourth round.
 In New Zealand, it's one o'clock and Wellington office workers are strolling on Lambton Quay watch ing world ships unload.
 In Suva, Java, it's siesta time after typically tropical lunch of hot shrimp in coconut shell, topped off by fragrant fresh pineapple.
 In Tahitai, it's three pm. and the people are fishing, or bathing in a lagoon, or sipping a cool tall drink under ruStling palm tree. In Hawaii, they are finishing up the days work so as to get out and do the same. And up in Nome, Alaska, it's time out for the ump- teenth daily cup of coffee.
 When you come right down to the everyday happenings, it's a pretty small world after all. Just remember to set that clock ahead one hour!

Russia Denounces
 Former Practice of Trial by Confession

MOSCOW Rt-The standard So- viet practice of trial by confession which served Stalin so well in erasing his foeS-has been de- nounced in Russia leading law journal.
 The magazine Soviet State and Law labeled the procedure "glaring violation of :. socialist legality" It roundly criticized the late Andrei Vishinsky, who pros ecuted the famed purge trials of the 1930s at which many veteran Bolsheviks were convicted on their own confessions and put to death.
 Vishinsky subsequently served as chief Soviet delegate to the United Nations, where his forensic blasts drew wide attention. After his death in November 1854, Wish insky received a hero'S funeral in Red Square and his ashes were buried in the Kremlin Hall-a top honor.

Daylight Saving Time goes into effect Sunday, April 29. A lot of people are going to be confused for while.
 Here's an easy way to keep track of the time-an around-the- clock timetable worked out by the Pacific Area Travel Association.
 It's 8 pm. in Washington, DC. Detroit and New York. You're dining, dancing, or taking in a quiet movie. Out on the West Coast, you're having five o'clock tennis game, or getting in some much put-off gardening.
 You're enjoying a late day swim in Phoenix, or cocktails in Den yer. And if you're in Paris or Rome, you're winding up a gay night on the town.
 In the Pacific, it's tomorrow al- ready. Breakfast time in Singa- pore, Saigon and Djakarta. Ever wonder what these people have for breakfast? Fried rice or rice cookies, with very black sweet

knocked out. Mr.. Midget escaped
with minor injuries.
This accident may be remind
er to all those who drive through

Information concerning the Re-
serve Forces Act of 1865 has been
received in, the Dare County Selec-
tive Service local board office.
John E. Ferebee, chairman of the
board, stated that the pamphlet is
available to interested persons who
call at the local board office. He
stated that it discussed the various
options offered by the Act and
emphasized that a person should
discuss the option in which he is
interested, with the commanding
officers Of local Reserve and Ma
tional Guard organizations or local
recruiters of the various services.
Mr.. Ferebee suggested that
youths between the ages of IT
years and 18 years and 6 months
and their parents probably would
be interested in some of the OPP
tions which will no longer be avail
able to young man after he at
tains the age of 18 years and 6
months. He also suggested that
some veterans who entered on
active duty on or after 10 June
1851 and separated before l July
1857 may be interested in two of
the options. He pointed out that
under these they may materially
reduce their Ready Reserve obi
cation provided they make ar
engagements with Reserve or Ma
tional Guard organization prior to
l july 1857.

FIVE , TONS OF FISH
GOFOR NOTHING ON
A GLUTTED MARKET
Virginia TrawIers Appear TO Get
Bulk Of Early April Catch
Of 10000 pounds

Oriental.-The commercial fish
ermen of North Carolina are get
ting their gear ready afor the peak
Of their year just ahead, but in
the late winter and early spring
catches Of unusual croakers have
caused them to wonder just what
the coming season will bring.
The latest catch at the first of
April is estimated by officials of
the North Carolina Fisheries As
ISOLATION to have put 10000 one
hundred pound boxes into the holds
of Virginia trawlers, and about u
90 boxes into the North Carolina
trawlers. About one-half the catch
was Of medium size, small for this
time of year when only a scattered
few of jumbo size are usual.
The catch was taken above Dia-
mond Shoals, even further north
than an earlier similar catch in
February, and the fishermen are
guessing that warmer weather
brought the fish north earlier.
During the latest run of croakers
o drag Of the trawl for five to
nine minutes would fill it to the,
bursting point.
Opinion has been expressed by
the Fisheries Association officials
that the unusual croaker run is
bringing to the coast of North
Carolina a different species of
croaker. Observers say that the
species now being caught is not
like the usual Spring croaker, and
there has been guarded comment
on the opinion by scientists, who
indicate that their opinion will be
withheld until further study.
Another opinion expressed is
that the mysterious elements of
the deeps have changed the migra-
tory path of the croakers being
caught to the coast of North Caro-
lima, which they had not previously
touched. A fear expressed is that
croakers in great numbers may en-
ter the sounds and decrease the
shrimp spawn.
In any case, the mammoth
catches of croakers, particularly
the last one by the Virginia trawl-
ers, dropped the bottom out of the
market. Reports have been that
100 pound boxes of the croakers
sold for three dollars - which
gave away the labor and the
fish"
Other light seasonal catches in
the nets have been those of sea
mullets, and there was an unusual
run of large gray trout south of
the Hatteras Lightship at the mid
die of February. The catch of hard
shell crabs has been good in North
Carolina waters, particularly SO in
Core Sound, but the market price
for North Carolina crab meat
dropped at the first of April when
the fisheries of Maryland and
Virginia began their production.
Until that time the price of five
cents per pound to the crabbers
had been maintained, spokesman
for the fishing industry reported.

IMGM Was Pushed-Into TV
By HAROLD HEFFERNAN

HOLLYWOOD (NANA) =
Pressure from distracted stock
holders demanding that MGM
make some drastic move in an
attempt to recoup disastrous
production losses is repeatedly
the reason behind the company's
sudden about move into tele-
vision.
Although three other studios
had earlier sold large patches OF
old. features to TV operators
IMGM continuously has been in
Isisting to exhibitors across the
country that it would stand firm
and resist all attempts to bring
its product into the homes as
competition to them.
In making its announcement
studio officials indicated they
also would enter directly into
the field of TV production. but
there were doubts in the minds
Iof close Hollywood observers that
this could come to pass at least
in the near future.
First Try FlOpped
The company still is smartine
from the severe buffeting it re-
lceived in its first attempt to har-
ness the medium. A weekly Offer
ling, "MGM Presents" over the
ABC network proved a sorrowfu
flop and was Cancelled aftel
eight months of continuous bick'
ering with the network anC
sponsors. Meanwhile, two riva
major lots, Warner Brothers
and goth Century-Fox, have beer
