Registrants Of
July 1 Get Same
Consideration
Men who registered under the:
Selective Training and Service!
AT or) July 1 and whose order
numbers were determined in the
national lottery on July 17 are
cubiect to the same rules of in
dividual classification as the
youths who were enrolled pre
viously and will be treated exact
]y alike, the Governor's office em
phasized.
Under no circumstances will
the new group of potential train
ees be classified and considered
for possible military training en
bloc. Each man will have his or
der number by which his local
board will consider his classi
fication and no local board can
classify the individual registrant
until his number is reached, ex
cept in case of volunteers.
The national lottery served as
a guide for each local board to
integrate its new registrants
among those who registered last
January, and that integration
must b? carried out so that the
recent registrants will consider
their classification only in a fair
and equitable ratio to those men
not yet inducted.
The Governor’s Office stressed
the fact that there is no differ
ence between treatment of the
new registrants and the old reg
istrants. The same rules of defer
ment apply to both. Both have
the same right of appeal. The
interests of both are protected
by the government in the same
mannr. And each case is consid
ered individually when the regis
trant’s order number comes up,
regardless of whether he regis
tered July 1 or previously.
Selective Service
Board
Be Named, Alaska
Legal advisory boards to aid in
carrying out the Selective Ser
vice Act in Alaska are expected
to be set by the week, it was
announced by E. L. Bartlett, sec
retary of Alaska. Actual naming
of the boards awaited return of
Gov. Ernest Gruening expected
today.
The boards will be composed
of three lawyers in each Alaska
community, Bartlett said. They
will assist draftees, who receive
their questionaires, in filling out
the forms correctly.
Nazis Have Roots
Deep S. America
Deep rooted is the German in
fluence throughout the South Am
erican Republics, was the inform
ation advanced by Dr. Emilio de
Hofmannsthal, who passed thru
Juneau recently on a trip that
has taken him almost 12,000 mil
es from his home in Buenos Aires
Argentina.
Dr. Hofmannsthal, a member
of the Academie Diplomatique
Internationale and a represent
ative of the Interamerican Law
Offices which has its branches all
over the world, is on the last leg
of a trip through the United
States, for the purpose of open
ing a chain of additional sub
branches, which will be operated
in the capacity of information
and publicity centers as well as
offices of law, across the North
American Continent.
The purpose of these offices,
stated Dr. Hofmannsthal, will be
to facilitate the establishment of
a closer relationship between the
South American countries and
the United States.
Need for Activity
‘There is a great need for this
type of activity at the present
time as the entire Western Hem
isphere will be forced to make
plans for the future for its trade
and commerce from an introspec
tive view point,” stated Dr. Hof
mannsthal.
“Up to the start of the present
European conflict the German in
fluence in South American coun
tries was growing steadily, due to
the ingenious methods of pro
paganda used by the Nazis, and
slowly the American interests
were being squeezed out by the
German organizations that under
sold United States products.”
During all this time the Germans
captured the good will of the
South Americans while discredit;
ing the United States.
U. S. Must Step In
“Now that the Germans are un|
able to supply Latin America
with goods and devote their
time to carrying on their pro
paganda the time is ripe for the
United States to step in and by
means of increased trade and bet
ter cultural relations, regain the
good will of the Latins.”
“The possibilities of a trade re
lationship between Alaska and
Latin America are indeed doubt
ful,” admitted Dr. Hofmannsthal,
“but the increase of South Am
erican tourist trade to Alfeska
could be facilitated by an ejq
tensive publicity campaign.”
Dr. Hofmannsthal has been in
the United States since January
and will return to Buenoes Air
es late in the fall.

Revenue Collec
tions Are High
Collector Coming
I-^prnai revenue collections
for Alaska have reached the
$1,500 "09 mark.
Cnllecter Clark Squir". with

inc June 30 were §1,496.143.74.
He said the 1940 fiscal year col
lection? wer? $975 709.61.
The gain is $570,434.13. or ap
proximately 53.3 percent.
Squ re pointed out that a like
increase during the present year
would put collections above the
$2,000 000 mark. The revenue bill
now before Congress probably
will result in such an increase,
he said.
These revenues are derived
from a variety of taxes. Those
with which the general public
is most familiar are the income,
socal security and admissions
taxes. There are corporation in
come taxes as well as individual
income taxes. Many of the in
come tax returns are non-tax
able.
However, regardless of whe
ther a person is taxed, he must
file a return if his gross income
reaches certain figures.
Taxable individual returns in
Alaska have mounted to 10,045,
Squrie saidfl This is an increase
of 5.120 or 103.9 percent, for the
year. Returns on taxable incomes
covering 1939 totaled but 4,925.
Individual income tax collec
tions jumped from $360446.32 to
$679,395.50. a gain of $318,949.18.
Social security tax collections
went up from $235,427 to $314,
928.
Admission tax collections leap
ed from $26,058 to $69,101.
Collections of the various
forms of liquor taxes increased
from $19,379 to $52,520.
