BUSINESS TAX IS
NOT FOR FARMERS.
WILLIAMS RULES
Alaska’s farmers are not re
quired to pay a tax under the
Alaska Business License Ac
passed by the last legislature, the
Territory’s attorney general, Ger
aid A. Williams, has ruled.
Mr. Williams was asked for ar
opinion by M. P. Mullaney, ta>
commissioner. Mr. Mullaney ear*
lier had ruled that because oi
the Act’s definition of “business’
and a later definition of the wore
“person”, in listing those whe
must pay the business tax, farm
ers were required to pay.
In the written opinion sub
mitted by Mr. Williams, the at
torney general said "a farmer is
a producer in his own right;
he is not a businessman in the
usual sense of the word. In
Federal statutes governing in
come tax and bankruptcy acts,
a farmer is recognized as a class
separate and to himself. It is
my opinion that such a distinc
tion should also be applied in
references to the Alaska Busi
ness License Act and that farm
ers should not be subject to the
tax. . .
Mr. Mullaney was in Palmer
Thursday to explain the attorney
general’s decision. He said those
farmers who already had paid
the tax should apply to Dorothy
Saxton for the form on which to
request reimbursement. This
form, filled out, must be mailed
to Mr. Mullaney’s office in Ju
neau. A territorial warrant will

Cub Pack Moves West
To School Ggmnasium
Next Monday Evening
After a summer of outdoor
meetings, the Palmer Cub Scout
Pack will move indoors again for
its first fall Pack meeting, to be
held next Monday evening at
eight o'clock in the school Gym
nasium. Articles prepared to
illustrate the “Westward, Ho”
theme for September will be
judged at this Pack meeting, lead
er Hugh Johnson announced.
Cubs have been fashioning min
iature trading posts, covered wag
ons and other articles illustrative
of the march of the pioneers
across the plains to the westward.
Mr. Johnson said he hoped to
be able to announce the names of
two new Den mothers at Mon
day’s meeting. The Pack has been
seriously handicapped by the re
cent resignation of Mrs. Harry
Wimmer and Mrs. S. F. Crosby,
both of whom have moved from
the Valley.
Mrs. Don Ingalls temporarily
has adopted one of the orphaned
Dens, but she is serving in that
capacity only until a new Den
mother can be named.
Mr. Johnson asks that the Pack
committee meet at 7:30 Monday
evening, to discuss the need for
more Den mothers and to plan
the winter Cub program.
be issued for the full amount of
the business tax fee.
Mrs. Saxton said not more than
15 or 20 local farmers had paid
the tax. The first attempts to ef
fect its collection were made here
only a few weeks ago. Valley
farmers had protested the tax
strongly and territorial senator
Walter Huntley wrote to Del. E.
L. Bartlett concerning the meas
ure.
