"NO TAXES WITHOUT
REPRESENTATION" IS
OUTMODED MAXIM
(Continued from Page i)
slogan, and has never been adopted
into law. The power to tax lies in
herent in the power to govern, ac
cording to most interpretations oi
the whole affair.
Then there’s the maxim brought
out by Jefferson that "the power to
tax is the power to destroy,” shoved
aside by Holmes when he was head
justice of the high court.
Here’s another example where
they found “it ain’t necessarily so:”
(It’s the Supreme Court talking
again, too.)
”, . . Congress is not subject to the
same constitutional limitations as
when it is legislating for the United
States.”
This crack refers to the fact that
Congress may govern acquired terri
tory through an article in the con
stitution which reads: “. . . to dis
pose of and make all needful rules
and regulations respecting the ter
ritory or other property belonging
to the United States.”
In other words, the court holds
here that Congress can’t tax a stale
if that state can't vote, but it -an
tax anything else, whether it totes
or not.
Moore also wrote to the attorney
general, but got a letter stating he
doesn’t give opinions except at the
instance of the President.
However, he's going to get in
touch with officials who are trying
to get taxes eased here on money
which remains invested in the Ter
ritory, now being considered by a
legislative committee.
The idea behind this is that
money placed in industry or other
Alaskan development would not be
touched by the federal government,
so long as profits remained in
Alaska or were plowed back into the
development.
It’s a way to get things rolling
up north, which has long suffered
because of unwillingness of state
side money to come here, because
the long haul coupled with high
taxes make it tough to show any
profits.
The consideration now under
scrutiny doesn’t affect individual
income taxes, but rather corpora
tion taxes—but Moore isn’t abashed
by that; he feels that if Congress
would let down the bars on cor
porations, they should do likewise
on individuals.
He feels that with some backing,
his challenge may still go a long
way, despite the preponderance of
court cases which indirectly say it’s
OK to tax Alaskans. He feels that
morally, he’s in the right—despite
any and all court decisions.
SOFTBALL ALL-STARS
PRODUCE 5 PLAYERS
FOR LEAGUE TEAMS
In a special softball match game
played Friday night between the
high school All-Stars and a picked
ACS team found the All-Stars mak
ing a good showing for themselves.
The score at the end of nine in
nings stood at 13 to 5.
It was really good to see such
fine fighting spirit and playing dis
played by the All-Stars. At bat
they stood like old timers, taking
good cuts at the ball and knocking
them for a long distance. In the
field they handled the ball well and
[ with strong throwing arms zipped
] the ball around the infield.
Their great weakness due to lack
of experience was what base to
; throw to when they had men on
j base;.not knowing the ground rules
proper place to stand; what base to
| back up when one of the basemen
i was fielding the ball. This will come
| by naturally with a little more
' playing experience.
The All-Stars should watch the
league in action, which plays on
Monday and Thursday nights. In
scouting the players it looks like
about five players could hold down
berths with teams in the league
! and it would be well for the nun
i agers of the league to keep their eye
on the young fellows. The five
| players are Billy Orme, pitcher;
Dick Forrest, pitcher (who has al
ready made the pitching staff cl
the Dept, of Interior); Kenney Ka
dow, shortstop; Richard Allen, first
base; and Ralp Treffers, right field.
The All- Stars will practice Tues
day evenings and play picked teams
from the league on Fridays, start
j ing at 7 p.m.
TWO BOYS ARRESTED
AFTER FOSBEE APT.
BURGLARY YESTERDAY
Two boys, one 14 and the other
15, and both wards of the Terri
torial Department of Welfare, have
been arrested for burglarizing two
homes in the Fosbee Apartments
on Distin Avenue early yesterday.
Police said the boys admitted
| working together in the burglaries,
! one of them acting as a lookout
while the other entered the build
' ing.
The burglaries were reported
after a woman discovered one of
the boys in an apartment. She tried
i to hold him, but he struggled free
I and escaped, she told police offi
! cers.
The younger of the two boys was
i apprehended 10 minutes after the
burglaries were reported, and the
| other was taken early today.
They admitted to the police that
I they had taken $13 in cash and a
! purse. The purse, said to contain
a government check for more than
! $100, was thrown into the channel
j from a wharf, the boys told the po
j lice.
Both of the young offenders have
seven serious offenses against their
records. One was involved in the
burglary of Bert’s Food Center last
April; the other in the theft of a
I trolling boat at Sitka some time ago.
i police said.
