statement in which he said
he would abide by the Arch

Tax TattIers Help US. Collect Millions

A total of 12 million dollars in federal taxes, penalties and in- terest was recovered as result of information furnished by tax informants during the year ended June 30, 1861, according to Com merce Clearing House.
 Each of the 706 informers whose stories proved up received and average of $777, an $88 increase over 1860 payments made to 758 informants.
 Claims for rewards were filed by ALAS tax tattlers. But 3,439 were rejected because they were not proved, or they were not eli gible under the rules.
 The tax rules provide that IRS officials may approve such re- wards as are deemed suitable for information that leads to the de duction and punishment of per sons guilty of violating internal revenue laws.
 The amount of the informer's award represents what the dis trict director deems to be ade- quate compensation Normally, the reward does not exceed 10 per cent of the additional taxes, penalties and fines recovered as a result of the information.

Ketchikan Woman Would Rather Sit Tn Jail Than Pay Fine

KETCHIKAN LA1 - Mrs. Wini Silko of nearby Mountain Point went to jail Wednesday rather than to pay a $1o fine imposed when she refused to by a $2.50 city automobile windshield sticker.
 Mrs. Silko was released from jail after about two hours when friend paid her fine.
 Earlier, District M gistra te Richard Lauber had given her 48 hours to make up her mind on whether she would pay the fine or go to jail.
 Mrs. Silko had been assessed a $10 fine early in December and Lauber granted a 60-day stay of execution. When she failed to pay on time, he signed a warrant for her arrest and she was arrested by state trooper. The latest charge was contempt of court.
 Mrs. Silko immediately put up $25 bond but refused to be finger printed
 Wednesday, Mrs. Silko went all most immediately to the detention home after appearing in court. She said she was determined to serve two days in jail rather than pay the fine.
 She was finger printed, issued jail garb and was settling down for two-day stay when the re- lease order came through.
 Mrs. Silko insisted that she and other persons living outside the city should not be required to purchase car stickers.

Jackie's Project
 In White House
 Points Out History

WASHINGTON R9 = President Kennedy says his wife's White House refurnishing project will bring Americans more intimately in contact with the men who lived there.
 After all, he points out, his- tory is people, and seeing such items as President Grants table. Lincoln's bed or Monroe's gold dinner set makes these men more alive"
 Kennedy said he considers US. history source of strength and anything that dramatizes the great story of America, "as think the White House does," is worthy of the closest attention and re- spect.
 Joining Wednesday night at the end of Mrs. Kennedy's hour-lon 2 television tour of the White House and the restorations she has made, the President said he was glad his wife had undertaken the project.
 He said he hoped future oc- cupants, like past First Ladies, would continue to try to make the White House the center really of a sense of American his torica1 life"
 The President confided that he thinks History is sometimes "a dull subject" with so much en- phasis on dates.
 If American boys and girls come to the White House, he said, and "in a sense touch the people who have been here, then they'll go home more interested, and I think that they'll become better Americans, and some of them may want to someday live here which I think would be very good"
 Even girls" he added with a grin.
 Mrs. Kennedy, accompanied by CBS commentator Charles Col lingwood, took American Tv viewers on the tour which was taped a month ago. She also gave a personal narrative of White House history.
 The First Lady said she felt the Presidents home should dis play "all the things we did so well, pictures, furniture-I think this house should be the place where you can see them best"

Province Secession
 Comes to End in Katanga

ELISABETHVILLE, K a { anga. The Congo R = After stormy four-hour session, the Katanga Parliament agreed Thursday to end the provinces secession but demanded that the Central Congo lese government line up with the free world against Communism.
 President Noise Tshombe went before the assembly to lash US. policy in the Congo, accusing American financial interests of trying to turn the nation into a colony under their domination.
 The Katanga assembly met in a shabby building still showing the scars of last December's fighting. Most of the windows had been broken by bullets and shrapnel and glass still filters the hall.
 The legislators were called by Tshombe's government to approve the Kitona agreement subject to three pages of conditions the Katanga authorities have since demanded.
 Tshombe signed the Kitona agreement with Prime Minister Cyrille Adoula at the end of last December's two-week battle with United Nations forces. If carried out it would virtually end Ka- tanga's Is months of independence.

 Sensing something amiss after too long a wait to fill 275- gallon tank, he shut off the valves and knocked on the door. He and Mrs. Jackson found the family's fallout shelter almost filled with more than 1000 gall Ions of fuel oil
 The pipe was the air exhaust for the shelter. The fuel oil com pany pumped out the oil and dumped 1t and said it would get rid of the oil odor in the house.

Stedman Hotel to Close ,. Blame New Wage Act

KETCHIKAN R - The Sted- man Hotel, a part of the Ketchikan downtown scene for more than half century, will be closed March I because of the new and higher state wage and hours laws which became law this week, the management announced Wednesday.
 Gordon Zerbetz, manager of the Stedman Hotel Co, said the new and higher minimum wage rates, plus overtime provisions, made it impossible for the firm to con tinue in the business profitably.
 The firm also operates the Gill more Hotel which will not be closed, Zerbetz said.
 Zerbetz said six persons who otherwise had year-round jobs will be discharged and the city's only public rest room will be closed.
