A REMINDER TO THOSE WHO
ARE SELF-EMPLOYED
James G. Browne, Manager of
the Social Security Administra
tion Field Office in Juneau, re
minds self-employed persons that
they may be required to file
a self-employment lax return.
This return may be necessary
even though they have not had
enough income in 1952 to file
a personal income tax return.
Any self-employed person who
is not a member of one of the
excepted professions, is required
to file a self-employment tax
return if he has had net income
from his trade or business of
$4GO or more in 1952. The self
employment tax return must be
filed with the Bureau of Internal
Revenue by March 15, 1953.
Browne stated that self-em
ployment income reported, is
credited to the social security
record of the person reporting.

A.R.R. CREATES NEW POST
OF ASST CLAIM AGENT
An Alaska Railroad man with
nearly 20 years experience has
been named to the railroad's
newly created post of assistant
claim agent. The man is William
R. Price, formerly the assistant
freight agent at Anchorage.
Railroad officials said the po
sition was established to “better
serve railbelt shippers’’ and
would niake available a man to
contact them directly on freight
claim problems. “The move is
also designed to expedite pay
ment of claims,” according to
Elbert J. Kunz, railroad traffic
manager.
One of Price’s assignments is
to explore the causes resulting
in claims on the railroad and
to put into action a claim pre
vention program. Claims cost
the railroad thousands of dollars
each year and are an inconven
ience to Shippers in the territory.
Price is well known along the
railbelt area having toured it
frequently as a freight inspector
for several years. In 1949 he
was named assistant freight
agent at Anchorage and this
month was promoted to the new
post.
“Mr. Price is thoroughly ac
quainted with freight procedure
and helped set up the handling
of claims in the Anchorage
freight house,” the railroad re
ports.
DR. SELLERS RETURNS SAFE
AFTER STORMY TRIP
Dr. R. O. Sellers and the two
Eads brothers, Max and John,
returned Monday after a pro
longed trip in their barge. The
rc-conditioned power barge was
on its trial run to Rocky Bay,
near Seldovia on a trip that was
expected to be #ily a few days.
They became storm bound, how
ever, and some uneasiness was
felt here for their safety when
nothing was heard from them in
ten days.
Dr. Sellers finally got word
through by way of Kodiak that
they were safe but storm bound,
and they arrived home a day or
so later.
Special Meeting Held
By City Council
A special closed meeting of
the city council was called for
Wednesday, Feb. 18, to discuss
differences between the Council
and Utilities Board.
This was brought about by
presentation of a bill by Frank
Woods against the Water De
partment, which he said was
overdue. Mayor Russell Painter
said that he felt that such dif
ferences between the two gov
erning bodies should be ironed
out in private, and called the
special meeting. Nothing has
been made public concerning re
sults of the conference.

From faraway
places-more
oil for you
In Sumatra back in 1924, Standard geologists began
mapping possible deposits of oil. But not until last year
did Sumatran wells start adding to available oil supplies.
This operation, costing some $62 million to date, was
pioneered by Standard. It is now carried on jointly with
The Texas Company under the name “Caltex.”
I
Into San Francisco Bay come tankers carry
ing Sumatran crude—returns on the long gamble
Standard undertook nearly 30 years ago. Other
shipments go elsewhere in the world, aiding prog
ress and adding defensive strength. Four friendly
nations in particular benefit directly. First, of course,
is the young Indonesian Republic, of Which Sumatra
is a part. Then Australia, Japan and the Philip
pines. They produce practically no oil of their own,
bat will be supplied in the near future by refineries
which Caltex is helping to build. <1 And, of course,
the Sumatran oil brought into this country helps
keep you in gasoline and the many other petroleum
products you’ve come to rely on. *1 Standard’s ac
tivities abroad, typified by this flow of Sumatran
crude, are constantly being expanded, as an added
guarantee that petroleum needs of the free world
will continue to be met.
