Legislators Take Note:-- 3% Sales Tax Most Painless

Why our legislators are evading the most painless tax of all 3f sales tax is something we can't under stand from way up here
 With steady income of 1fo going to relieve the needs of the territorial government and the 2d to the communities dual purpose is served with everyone paying according to what he spends
 The legislators working long hard hours figur- ing out ways and to tax the overaxed businesses of the territory with and complicated taxes They are crippling development and improvements to established business badly needed at this time Much more can be accomplished by the lawmakers by the one pay as you go tax.
 Alaska had it to form the veterans fund and it worked successfully. Why not duplicate tax that was successful rather than experiment with ones which are harmful?

Tax Incentive Program OK'd By Legislature e

JUNEAU, R - The Territorial Legislature has approved a tax incentive program that lawmakers hope will make the territory as attractive to industry as Is Puerto Rico.
 On a Is to vote, the Senate passed yesterday and sent to the governor a bill to grant up to IT years of tax relief to new indus try in Alaska.
 The bill, which passed the House week ago, is modelled on the 1854 Puerto Rico industrial tax incentive plan.
 It is expected to get quick ap- proval by the acting governor m who asked for tax relief pro- gram in his message to the Legis- lature when it convened 2 months ago.
 Under terms of the bill, new manufacturing or industrial com panies in Alaska could obtain full forgiveness of all territorial in come taxes.
 In addition, qualification under the program would guarantee complete relief from all property taxes - whether municipal, ter ritorial or levied by independent school districts or public utility districts.
 As a third incentive, new indus try likewise would not have to pay any form of the territorial gross business license tax - a big factor in the Alaska tax structure.
 The program would be open to firms engaged in manufacturing, processing and refining and also would include new tourist and commercial hotels.

Navy Airmen Cross Country In 5 Hrs. B Mins.

SANFORD, Fla, R-Just 'to add a little spice to a routine fer rying job," three Navy airmen set an unofficial cross-country record time of 3 hours 39 minutes and 24 seconds on flight from Cali fornia to Florida Friday.
 It. G.G.g Ralph s. Barnett, the pilot, said he made no effort to push the twin-jet A-3D Navy at tack bomber to it's maximum and didn't know he bettered the rec ord until he sat down to dinner here.
 While the record bettered by eight minutes the time made in January by. an Air, Force. BAY, it will not be official because timing arrangements were not made in advance with the international federation which certifies such records.
 Barnett and his crewmen aver aged above $40 miles an hour.
 "We figured it would take about 10 minutes longer than it did," Barnett said. He signified in the flight plan he planned to try for the record ito add a little spice to routine ferrying job"
 He said helpful tailwind about 36,00O feet up pushed them to the record but otherwise it was an uneventful flight.

Eco Becomes Jungle As Result of Quakes In San Francisco

SAN FRANCISCO, R - Flei- shaker Zoo has been turned back into a jungle by the San Fran cisco's earthquakes.
 Every time the ground shakes elephants lope around their en- closures trumpeting loudly. Lions and tigers roar. Monkeys and pea cocks shriek.
 Zoo foreman Fred Roemer said the gibbon apes are the most ex- cited.
 A lady giraffe ran into a fence Friday and was bruised. Windows were smashed in the aviary - but no birds left.
 In Millbrae, one home owner said the pet dog became so ex- cited that his wife had to calm the canine with a shot of whiskey.

ASTRONOMY NOTES
 By OLAF HALVORSON

Auriga is a constellation To- cated high in the sky and to the west of the twin stars, Castor and Pollux. Auriga forms a geometric polygon of five sides called a pen tagon.
 The brightest star in this con- stellation is Capella, another beautiful star sending out a clear white light. Like so many stars, Capella really consists of two great suns of nearly equal bril- liance.
 These two stars lie so close to- gether that there is not much more than half the distance be- tween our earth and the sun be- tween them. They revolve around a common center of gravity in only 1042 days In the present state of our knowledge about eight stars out of twenty are inaries or multiples.
 The distance of Capella from the earth has been estimated to be about 34 light years. A light year is the distance that light trav- els in one year at the rate of 186,000 miles second.

opponent tonight at Pattison Field
in Nela Florists.
The Caterers were soundly
thumped last Thursday by the XII
wants nine, 9-3, with Denny
Rogers, Kiwanis third baseman,
being q particular thorn in the
Honegger side. Rogers connected
for triple and three singles and
scored four runs to lead the 11-hit
Kiwanis attack. The game ended
on an unusual note-Nick Barile,
Kiwanis hurler, was faced with a
real pitching problem in the final
inning when the first three men
he faced got on base. He really
went to work at that point, how
ever, by striking out the next
three batters.
The G. E. Litesox missed an
opportunity to take over first
place in the standings on Tues
day night when they succumbed
to the Honegger entry, 5-2. Four
Litesox errors in the sixth frame
gave Honeggers four unearned
runs to break up a pitching duel
between Bob Hickman and Dave
Moore. However, there are still
many Colt League followers who
feel that the G. E. nine will come
through to capture the second
half toga.
