WASHINGTON, Jan. — The
annual report of th Commerce
Department showed an increase
of approximately a hi lion dol
lars in United States exports dur
I ir.ig fiscal 1940, despite wars in
Europe and Asia.
Total exports ncreased 31 per
cent and a 40 p r cent increase
was shown for Canada and Latin
America. The exports during fis
cal 1940 were listed at $3,800,000,
000 against $2,900,000,000 the pre
vious year.
The rise in Latin American
trade was the most notable ele
m nt in the picture.
Domestic business rose also dur
ing the fiscal year. This spurt
was motivated largely by the im
I pact of war conditions and de
ft use measures at home. Nation
al income was about 71 billion

i 67 millions the previous y ar.

THREE LITTLE INDIANS
NOW DOING WELL
Good reports relative to the
three little Indian beys who re
c ntly served sentences < r ■'
days on conviction of theft at
Nenana have been received l>
George Louden, in charge of the
Fairbanks office of the Territorial
Department of Public W. If are.
While Mr. Louden’s office is
not under the Office of Indian At
fairs, still he gives attention to
welfare matters in connection
with .natives inasmuch as the
Office of Indian Affairs has no
r gular representative there.
The three little native boys
were brought to Fairbanks from
Nenana November 9. Because of
their youth, Chief Deputy Mar
shall John J. Buckley commit
ted thew to the Detention Home
instead of to the Federal jail.
They were discharged from cus
tody December 8.
One of them remained in Fair
banks and is happily placed with
a good family. The two others
returned to Nenana. They re-en
tered St. Mark’s Episcopal Mis
sion school at Nenana from
which they had run away short
ly before their arrest. They are
getting a’ong nicely at the Mis
sion now.

A GENERAL INCOME TAX
(New York Times)
According to the latest Gallup
survey a majority of those ques
t: n.d favored payment of an in
i come tax on the familys earnings
no matt r how little, by every
American family not on relief.
This is a proposal that deserves
serious consideration. Our pre
-t .neeme tax is in effect a
class tax. It is paid by less than
one in every 15 vot rs. The ques
tion might well be raised whe
,r r. purely as an edited: n.,1 do
vice, every person of voting age
ought not to be obliged at Last
to fill out tax blank each year,
report Ins income, and even if it
fo’ 1 below his exemption, b' re
quired to pay a nominal sum of
say a dollar or so, to cov r the
c st of the additional c' rical
work involved in checking the
increased number of returns. The
humblest citizen already pays
many times that amount in in
direct taxes of one sort or an
other. It would be much health
ier if even a small proportion of
’ his real tax burden were Imposed
‘ directly and made visible to him.
