Shipping Strike
Will Badly
Injure Alaska
SEATTLE, (£>)—Enroute home
from Washington, D. C., Governor
Ernest Gruening of Alaska ex
pressed grave concern here Fri
day night over the effect upon the
Territory of the impending mari
time strike.
“Any shipping interruption will
hurt Alaska and hurt it bad im
mediately,” he said. “We under
went a three-month break last
year and haven’t yet fully recov
ered from it.”
Supply lines to the Territory, he
explained, have to be maintained
constantly. Any break occasioned
by a strike would be felt through- j
out the Territory almost as soon j
as it occurs.
j
Gov. Gruening left for Juneau
on the 8 a.m. Pam American plane
Saturday.

SEATTLE, |7PV—The San Fran-i

at midnight last night.
While the east coast shipping!
was hit by a work stoppage the
national maritime union of sailors
took up a renewal of discussions
scheduled between ship owners
and the two unions for settlements
which will complete contract
agreements in the west for an-,
other year.

NO SALES TAX ON
ARTICLES FOR RE-SALE
Senator Norman Walker, in Jes
sen’s Weekly, reports this week
that no sales tax is being levied at
! the present time on anything sold
: tor resale. He states that the act
that repealed the one-half of one
per cent tax on income from
wholesale sales took effect on
April 1, and no tax therefore
should be collected on wholesale
I sales of any kind.
It was also stated that the bill
! to lengthen the sales tax appar
ently was not passed in the recent
| regular session of the legislature,
unbeknownst to the legislature
until after adjournment. This
means that when the fund reaches
| the S3,500,000 mark, late this year
! or early next, the sales tax will
automatically cease to be.

Bartlett Opposes
Agriculture t
Research Transfer
WASHINGTON, (/P) — Delegate
Bartlett opposed * Saturday the
House action in transferring to
the secretary of agriculture ‘‘all
authority over the agriculture re
search program” in Alaska.
Such a provision in the agri
culture appropriations bill fo»*
next year, he told a Senate appro
priations subcommittee, ‘‘seeks to
alter what has become the settled
method concerning this kind of re
search in the United States.”
That method, Bartlett said, is
one of co-operation between the
federal government and the land
grant colleges.
Dr. Charles E. Bunnell, presi
dent of the University of Alaska,
said that the provision “besides
being unscionable, unwarranted
and unreasonable ... is unconsti
tutional and also is void for in
definiteness.”
“The disastrous effects of a pre
cedent such as is now proposed
must be averted, and the Univer
sity of Alaska appeals to the Sen- j
ate for appropriate action to sus- j
tain its protest.”
Bartlett said the provision inter
feres with the right of Alaskans
to self-government at a time when
they are seeking statehood.
“It would be a sorry fiasco if
our right of local government in
Alaska was retarded rather than
advanced,” he continued.
Bartlett said the bill’s proposed

Driver Seeks New
Job As Employer
Waits Anxiously
« Y
A short while ago newspaper
readers were told of a Brooklyn
bui driver who grew tired of driv
ing over the same route for more
than 20 years, took his bus for a
spin to Florida. *
Last Tuesday in Anchorage a
driver of the Alaska Dairy Prod
ucts, tired of Jus milk route took a
spin, George Jackson, manager of
the dairy told today.
Dairy officials waited anxiously
until 9 p.m.—five hours after the
driver was due back—before the
truck was checked in. While wait
ing for the driver Jackson check
ed several agencies to see if the
driver had been involved in an ac
cident.
Questioned to find out if he had
had an accident that might have
delayed him, the driver calmly re
ported, “No, I just took a ride to
Palmer to look for another job'”
PASTOR JOSEPH F. OST
VISITING IN NOME
Pastor Joseph F. Ost, third son
of Mr. and Mrs. L. E. Ost of Coun
cil arrived today to visit with
friends and relatives. Mr. Ost left
here seven years ago during which
time he has attended school and
served a church in Stillwater,
Oklahoma.
$100,000 for research in Alaska is
“insufficient bait" because “a
principle is at stake here and a
highly important one.”
