Press Release
Juneau, Alaska, Jan. 14, 192H.
The Executive Office of the
Alaska Game Commission is in
receipt of reports of prosecu
tions for violations in various sec
tions of the Territory.
Warden A, H. Hardy, of
Anchorage, reports that on Dec
ember 30, 1925, he arrested Kioto
Chelatin, Alexander Nickolai and
Wasilla Nickolai, at Kroto, Alas
ka, for iilegal trapping of beaver,
and seized 27 beaver sains taken
by these men. The men entered
pleas of guilty before the U. IS.
Commissioner *at Anchorage
Chelatin was sentenced to 3 mon
ths in jail and the other two
men were each given 3 months’
suspended sentence. From the
report, it would seem these two
men were not required to serve
the sentence because of their
mother needing their care. The
Court took custo iy of the skins
for sale later.
Warden tlallson, in the Ket
chikan region, reports that he
found d trappers, Severin Audal,
W. R. Allen, and George Sparks,
trapping without licenses, and in
some cases having taken marten.
All the cases were filed before
the U. S. Commissioner at Ketch'
ikan and fines of $da. each were
imposed The skins and traps
seized from the men were held
by the Court to be disposed of
later.

BURNS POE, Collector.
For immediate u lease.
Tacoma —
Heretofore taxpayers have!
been urged to file their income
tax r* turns early. The filing of j
returns this year is delayed, acc
ording to Burns Poe, Collector!
of Internal Revenue, pending the!
enactment of the new revenue
act now before the Senate, which,
as it passed the House, contains
changes in regatd to rates and
other features. However, there
is nothing to prevent a taxpayer
at this time from closing ids
books and computing his net in
come. Such computations will'
not be affected by any provisions
of the new act. The actual prep
aration of the return itself, after j
the computation, requires, in ai
majority of cases, but a few!
minutes. Therefore, it is advised
that all figures and data be ass
embled, pending receipt of
blanks by taxpayers. When rel,
eased, blanks will be sent to tax
payers and also may be obtained
at the office of Collector Poe.
Forms 1009 and 1096 used
for making information returns
are now available at offices of
collectors of internal revenue
and branch offices. Such returns
are required of persons “in
whatever capacity acting” who
made to a single person during
the year 1925 a payment of
$1,000 or more, or to a married
person a payment of $2,500 or
more. Such payments include
