WILLIAMS HOME
AFTER APPEARING
IN TAX ACT CASE
Territorial Attorney General J.
Gerald Williams returned Tuesday
on the Baranof from San Francis
co where he represented the Ter
ritory at the Circuit Court of Ap
peals.
Case before the court was the
Alaska Property Tax Act, Chapter
10, Sessions Law 1949, which levies
a tax of one per cent upon all real
property and improvements, and
personal property in the Territory.
Legality of the act was challenged
by Luther C. Hess and the Alaska
Juneau Gold Mining Co., and was
decided in their favor by Judge
Harry Pratt in the Fourth Division.
The decision was appealed by Com
missioner of Taxation for the Ter
ritory, M. P. Mullaney. H. L.
Faulkner of the law firm Faulkner,
Ban field and Boochever of Juneau
and Herbert Haugland, of Medley;
and Haugland, law firm in Seattle, j
represented the appellees.
i
Opinion in 2 Months
Williams said he expected an op
inion of the Circuit Court to he
forthcoming in the next ttvo
months.
While in San Francisco, Williams
also conferred with Arthur C. Mil
ler, regional attorney for the Fed
eral Security Agency relative to
the adoption of a social security
program by the Territory for Ter
ritorial employees and employees of
those municipalities that desire to
avail themselves of the Social Se
curity Act.
The Territorial Retirement Act
will be abolished June 22. Under
the Social Security Act, Territorial
and municipal employees will be,
for the first time, eligible to par
ticipate in this program. One of
the interesting features, Williams
said, of the new amendment to
the federal act, is that it provides
for a ‘"new start" as of January 1,
1951.
"I strongly recommend that the
contract with the Federal Security
Agency provide that the social se
curity program be adopted as of
January 1, 1961, in order to give
fullest benefits under the Social
Security Act, in as much as the
1950 amendment provides for a
"new start" for employees not pre
viously eligible to participate in the
plan, and does not penalize them
for having worked in uncovered
employment.”
The Enabling Act
The enabling act, passed by the
last session c' the legislature, pro
vides that the Territory can enter
into a contract with the Federal
Security Agency, making the so
cial security coverage retro-active
to January 1, 1951.
Williams also saw Judge E. Coke
Hill former federal Judge in Alas
ka. in the third and fourth divi
sions, and Kenneth C. Robertson,
regional attorney for the U. S. De
partment of Labor, relative to an
other Alaska case pending in Cir
eulf Court of Appeals. The case
is that of George Vaara. Anthony
Zorich, R. J. Rivers, of the Em
ployment Security Commission and
R. E. Sheldon, ESC director, vs.
the New England and Pish Com
pany and the Wards Cove Packing
Co. This case involves a determin
ation of the amount of experience
rating credits due employers in the
Territory.
LADY AND WHISKEY
ACCOMPANY MAN IN
90-MILE ROW HERE
“It's been a tough winter," pros- ,
pector Buck Harbeson, 61, reported
yesterday as he crawled out of his
17-foot skiff in which he rowed
about 90 miles from Dundas Bay
to Juneau on his first trip here
in two years.
By taking advantage of tides and
fair winds he was able to make
the trip in two. days. “It has taken :
me as much as four days," he ex- |
plained, “but the weather was un- i
usually good this trip.”
When coming across the bar by j
Point Retreat, Coastguardsmen,
spotted him and thought him in
trouble but when they went along- i
side to offer help, he calmly told I
them he needed no help, was
merely rowing to Juneau—without
missing a stroke
Buck is accompanied by his two i
dogs, Lady, a beautiful white Si
berian and wolf cross; and Whis-1
key, a cross between a setter and j
Chesapeake.
Originally a Michigander, Buck
first came to Alaska in 1926, made
one trip outside in 1928 and has
no yen to repeat it. He plans to be I
here about ten days.
