THE SCHOOL AND
THE CITIZEN ’
‘ Seventeen years ago yester
day as the w’arring nations of
Europe agreed to cease hos
tilities, the world rejoiced.
Since that time we have en
joyed blessed peace. We all
join in paying tribute to those
who served our country when
there wras a need for military
services, but none of us are
by nature militaristic, and
none of us are inclined to glor
ify war. Those who gave the
best of there lives in the ser
vice of our country are de
I
| serving of the highest respect
we can pay, but we frequent
ly fall short in paying tribute
to the heroes in time of peace.
One does not have to fight in
bloody battles to be of service
to his country, and many
have given the best they have
in service to man-kind, real
izing that their praises will
go unsung. Each day brings
new and varied opportunities
for us to be of service to our
fellow creatures, and every
child can learn early in life
that the greatest happiness is
attained bv cooperating with
those about him. Although
training children so that they
will attain economic security
is an important function of
our school system, it is by no
means the most important.
“The program of our Amer
ican schools is designed to
develop those finer qualities
which bring about more pleas
ant human relationships. Hu
man society is constantly fac
ing new problems. These
changes may not always be
for the best, but they must be
faced, and each member of

society must choose his met
hod of behavior. Our educa
tional workers are attempt
ing to so guide the develop
ment of pupils under then
direction that they will read
in a way that will bring aboul
the most satisfying results tc
them and to their fellow
beings. As civilization pro
gresses society becomes more
complex, and people become
more dependent upon each

our educational system,there

people that they will respond
to all situations in ways that
will be socially desirable.”

To the Chambers of
Commerce of Alaska:
Seattle, Wash., Oct. 18
At the request of the Alas
ka Steamship Co., which has
received a number of reports
from Alaskan business houses
that the Washington State Re
tail Sales Tax was being im
posed upon goods shipped
from Seattle to the Territory,
I have taken the matter up
with the Washington State
Tax Commission in order to
clarify the situation.
The following interpreta
tion, issued by the State Tax
Commission, points out quite
definitely that on the usual
Alaskan shipments from Seat
tie, where the seller places
the goods in the hands of the
Steamship company, no sales
tax shall be levied:
Statement of Tax Commission
“The 2', Retail Sales Tax
does not apply to sales at re
tail when, as a necessary in
cident to the contract of sale,
the seller agrees to, and does
deliver the goods to the pur
chaser at a point outside the
state or is bound, under the
terms of the contract of sale,
to place the goods in the
hands of a common carrier
consigned to the buyer at a
point outside the state. It is
immaterial whether the title
to the goods passes, in such
cases, upon delivery to the
carrier or upon arrival of the
goods at their destination.
“The 2' < Retail Sales Tax
attaches in every case except
one in which the seller is
bound, under the terms of the
contract, to start the goods

upon an interstate journey.
In the case of a sale to a pur
chaser in the state, the fact
that the goods delivered to
him are intended to be trans
ported to a point outside the
state is immaterial; unless
the seller, in accordance with
the terms of the contract of
sale, is bound to do some
thing which irrevocably plac
es the goods in the course of
an interstate movement there
is no immunity from tax.”
