LEGISLATURE TO FACE
SHRINKING INCOME
New sources of revenue to
meet the increasing cost of Terri
torial government in the face of
shrinking salman pack tax re
ceipts will be suggested to the
Territorial Legislature by Gov.
Ernest Gruening he said recent
ly
“Revenues are off,’’ the Gov
ernor said. “The Legislature
which will meet in January will
have to determine on the source
of revenue.
“In my message to the law
makers, I shall inform them
what money I think will be need
ed to conduct the business of
the Territory and I shall make!
some suggestions as to how need
ed revenue should be raised.
No “Invasion”
“I have not yet definitely con
cluded as to the amount of
money that will be needed. When
the conclusion is reached, the
proper policy on my part I think
should be to submit the figures
first to the Legislature.
“Studies have been made and
still are being made as to sources
of revenue. It will be the duty
of the Legislature to decide on
these sources. While my message
will offer suggestions, I have no
thought of trying to invade the
legislative^sphere of action.
Bonding Studied
“At the last session of the Leg
islature, Delegate Dimond sug
gested that the Territory bond
itself. He was prompted to make
this suggestion by the opportun
ity that then existed of getting
certain federal funds if they
should be matched by Territorial
funds. This condition no longer
exists.
“The Delegate’s proposal was
not favored by public sentiment.
Whether since then there has
been a change in sentiment with
respect to bonds I do not know.
I think folks should consider the
possibility of a Territorial bond
issue. A crystaliaed sentiment
would be a guide to the lawmak
ers.
“Personally I believe in the
policy of ‘pay as you go.’ ”
Write to your friends and rela
tives on the ‘Outside’, using Sour
ough Stationery. They’ll get a big
kick out of it.
