QUESTION AIRE
W
3. Do you have in mind any
other tax measures which you
'think of value?
4. Is there anything you care
to say about Health measures’
5. What is your reaction to
Fish Trap control?
6. Do you care to comment on
future measures to aid the Vet
eran?
7. What educational measures
do you think would be advis
able?
8. Are you in favor of State
hood for Alaska?
9. Would you comment on
Transportation problems? (Roads,
Maritime rates, etc.)
Reference is made to your let
ter of February 23rd, wheraln you
addressed me as a candidate for
the Legislature in regard to cer
j tain questions which you believe
jpertin.nt to the welfare of the
Territory. I will answer the pro
pounded questions as succinctly
as possible and yet express my
| true views of the propositions in
! volvcd. as follows:
I am in favor of a General
Property Tax Law.
1 would support a net income
tax law for the Territory of Alas- 1
ka providing there is a compen- 1
sating elimination of other exist
ing taxes.
I would support a General Prop. '
erty Tax Law (Taxation on prop- |
ertv outside of corporate limits
of any Town or City) provided, j
however, that the tax be levied !
on the current monetary produc
tivity of the taxable area.
I believe that everything pos
sible should be done for the
health of the residents of Alaska,
both Natives and White, provid
ing adequate funds can be pro
vided within the budgetory lim
its.
Fundamentally, I believe in the
abolition of Fish Traps because
they are a menace to individual
enterprise on which the future of
Alaska depends.
Realizing that the Veteran has.
by his enforced duty to the coun
try, lapsed a period of several
years of his productivity, he
should, therefore be reimbursed
to every extent possible, but it
is my opinion that the measures
of aid given to the Veterans
should be determined wholly upon
their worthiness.
Education is essential to the
citizens for the future develop
ment of the Territory. I would,
therefore, support a bill to pro
vide adequate funds for Territor
ial Schools and the University of
Alaska.
I am in favor of ultimate State
hood for Alaska, but I do not be
lieve we are quite ready for it.
I There are many things to be ad
justed before, with any sense of
security, we can assume that
great responsibility.
I am not at the present time
I in a position to make intelligent
comments on the maritime rates
of Transportation, to and from
Seattle due to the fact there are
labor and other problems connect
ed with same that I am not ade
quately familiar with. I do, how
ever, wish to express the opinion
that the Roads within the Terri
tory should be extended nad de
veloped as much as possible.
I hope that this will satisfactor
ily answer the queries you pre
sented to me.
I was very glad to hear from
you.
Very truly yours,

ASSISTANT REGIONAL
FORESTER. SEWARD VISITOR
I
Charles G. Burdlcn, Assistant
Regional Forester of the U. S
Forest Service with headquarters
in Juneau, spent several days on
the Kenai Peninsula last week
He advised the Seward Polaris
that Division Supervisor Virgil
Heath is being transferred to the
Alaska Fire Control Service at
Anchorage. Mr. Heath will be as
sistant to Bob Robinson, Chief of
j the Fire Control Service.
Mr. Heath entered the Forest
Service in 1928 in the Portland
Region. He was transferred to the
Alaskan Region in 1938 and has
been assigned to many places in
addition to four years in the
Navy since his arrival in Alaska.
His work at Ketchikan, Sitka,
Juneau, Fairbanks and here on
the Peninsula has been uniform
ly of a h'gh character. Mr. Bur
dick stated that the Forest Serv
ice regretted very much that Vir
gil was transferring but that a
substantial promotion was in
volved ana that Mr. Heath could
accomplish a great deal for the
forests of interior Alaska on his
new assignment.
Max Reger, Heath’s assistant at
Seward, will be promoted to the
position left vacant by Heath’s
transfer. No selection has been
made to fill Reger’s old position
but steps have been taken to se
cure a good Junior Forester but
it may be in June before anyone
is put on the job.
