No Tax-Free Booze to be
Sold On Ferry Malaspina
JUNEAU Ufi—Atty. Gen. George
Hayes said Friday the state will
not permit tax-free liquor to be
served aboard the ferries to be
operated on the new Southeast
Alaska Marine Highway System.
Hayes made the comment after
being asked about a report that
Chris Palzer, the ferry concession
aire, had received Customs Bureau
approval to serve so-called Sea
Stores liquor on that portion of
the ferry run between Ketchikan
and Prince Rupert.
Hayes said he discussed the sit
uation with Palzer by telephone
and had been assured that Palzer
would not attempt to sell any of
the 120 cases of tax-free liquor he
now has aboard the Malaspina.
R. D. Stevenson, acting Com
missioner of Revenue, confirmed
that Palzer had loaded the sea
stores liquor at Seattle, from a
bonded U. S. Internal Revenue
Service warehouse under Customs
Bureau supervision.
Sea stores liquor is for use only
on boats operating outside of U.S.
territorial waters or in foreign
commerce.
Purchasers of sea stores whiskey
are not required to pay U.S. taxes
and duty amounting to $11.75 a
gallon or state taxes. The Alaska
state tax on whiskey is $4.50 a
gallon.
In addition to the sea stores li
quor, Palzer also loaded at Seattle
239 cases of whikey, 24 cases of
wine and 419 cases of beer, all
purchased from Alaska - licensed
distributors. All state and federal
taxes were paid on these purchases,
Stevenson said.
Hayes said that after talking
with Palzer he felt the “situation
was resolved.”
The state, Hayes added, “takes
the position that tax-free liquor is
not going to be served on the
ferries.”

100,000 Cases of King Crab
KODIAK (#) — A single-plant
record of 100,000 cases of king crab
was reached last week by Alaska
Packers Association here, Verne
Hilliker, general superintendent of
the Kodiak operation, said Satur
day.
Hilliker said he hoped the plant
would boost the record to 125,000
before the season closes in late
March. Kodiak Island has a num
ber of other firms which also pro-'
cess king crab.
Who knows water better than a fish?
The fish we employ as water experts are tiny Stickle
backs. We pay them liberally in brine-shrimp, no
salary deductions.
It’s all because we use millions of gallons of water
daily in our refineries. After use, it is treated with
algae, bacteria, chemicals, sunshine and oxygen, to
make sure the water is clean and pure when we
return it to stream or sea.
As an ultimate safeguard, we let our Sticklebacks
test the water, before it is released. If they like it,
we know it will be happy water for any fish.
The object is to keep our streams and coastal waters
pollution-free with abundant fish to nibble your
hooks, and clean playgrounds for your water sports.
Many other industries which depend upon water are
equally careful. Our common concern
is to protect a priceless heritage.
Planning ahead to serve you better
