Tax Exemption
(Continued from Page 1)
plicable to cost-of-livinig allow
ances paid employees other than
federal government employees,
to meet the additional cost-of
living in Alaska and the other
Territories and Possessions.”
Over a period of many months,
Delegate Bartlett has conferred
with members of the House Ways
and Means Committee which
handles tax matters and with tax
experts in the government on the
possibility of introducing and
enacting legislation which would
allow all persons living in Alas
ka to exclude 25 per cent of their
gross incomes from the payment
of income taxes because of the
higher living and operating costs
in the Territory. The overwhelm
ing opinion expressed has been
that there is a federal legal bar
rier, to such legislation and that
Congress would be reluctant to
act and if it did that the action
would later be reversed by the
courts. This legal barrier was
set up, it is said, by a Supreme
Court decision holding that the
tax clauses of the Constitution
apply to an organized territory
with the same force and effect
as to a state and that equality
and uniformity in respect to such
taxation is demanded. Some be
lieve that this rule requires uni
versality of application and can
not be restricted to geographic
areas.
“For example,” Delegate Bart
lett has explained, “it would not
be possible to give a dock work
er in Honolulu preferential tax
treatment merely because he re
sides in Hawaii; it might be pos
sible, on the other hand—al
though doubtless this would be
determined in the courts—to
give advantageous consideration
to all dock workers under the
flag. The Alaska federal worker
who now is freed from the re
quirement of paying income tax
on that part of his gross pro
ceeds which represents cost-of
living allowance is being treated
exactly the same as other Ameri
can citizens working in other
places where that allowance is
paid.
"I will agree,” Delegate Bart
MRS. BAKER BACK FROM
FIVE WEEKS TRIP EAST
Mrs. Kenneth Baker Is back
at her desk In the high school
office this week after a five
weeks trip to the East Coast.
She and her young son Frankie
arrived home late Saturday.
After visiting her father in
Pennsylvania, who had been se
roiusly ill, Mrs. Baker also visit
ed relatives in Wilmington, Dela
lett has said, “that a demonstra
tion could be made that because
of the higher cost-of-living in
Alaska, many wage earners and
salaried workers must receive
much more money for even mini
mum living expenses than simi
larly placed workers elsewhere,
and for that reason are thrown
into a high tax bracket. That is
obvious. What is not so obvious
is how all inequalities can be
wiped out. They exist in other
places, too, and surely the work
er in New York City must re
ceive more than the laborer in
Mississippi, where the cost-of
living is much lower than in
New York.”
Therefore, the action taken by
Delegate Farrington and Dele
gate Bartlett in seeking the
views of the administration is
based on possible legislation
which would exempt from taxa
tion money paid to persons any
where earmarked as cost-of
living allowances.
