Here, There and Eyefywhere
By SIG DIGREE


 A land swap t.atween Canada and the United States, which has been in-the talking stage for some time, and concerns the Alaskan Panhandle in Southeastern, was the subject of a letter we received this week from Sen. Ernest Gruen- ing.
 An engineer in Vancouver, B.C., maC.o a proposal in which Canada would get most of the Panhandle in exchange for giving Alaska parts of the Yukon and British Colum- bit This proposal was unaccept- able to the Senator. And rightly so. But he has offered counter proposal in wrich Alaska would get a 10000 sq mi. strip of land which mose or less would include that portion of the Alaskan High way i1 the Yukon Territory which now connects by highway the town of Haines, Alaska and Western Alaska.
 In the exchange, according to the Senatc-, Canada would get an equivalent amount Of land in Northeast Alaska running from just above the Arctic Circ--, to the Beaufort Sea.
 In addition, Canada would gain: one or more free ports on the Alaska Panhand ard a corridor from Canadian territory to that port.
 The idea as proposed by Sen. Gruening, who discussed it with Pres. Roosevelt some 15 years ago, has merit. AS we see it, it would be an excellent exchange from the Alaskan viewpoint. We can see where the Canadians would balk. Their gain, other than the free port and corridor, would be one of potential. And who knows the potential In the land in northeast

Bill Aims to End
Tax Inequities in
dealers Reserves

The House Ways and Means
Committee yesterday approved
a bill designed to correct what
its sponsor. Representative
lizard, Democrat of Texas, says
is an inequity in the income
tax treatment of so-called
dealers reserves"
These are reserves required
by usual business practice of
dealers in automobiles and
other products.
The bill would provide these
alternative methods of income
tax treatment:
l. Dealers reserves could be
reported for income tax pur-
poses as if they were a change
in method of accounting, and
to the extent they are attrib-
utable to years before 1854
no adjustment would need to
be made.
2. Taxpayers could elect to
determine with respect to each
year the additional amount of
tax due had the reserves been
reported as income annually.
The sum of these amounts
could then be paid in 10 equal
installments in future years.
The sbill would include real
property as well as personal
property.
