City Council To Discuss
Dog License Fees At
Meeting Tonight
On the agenda of the Nome
City Council meeting this evening
is scheduled a discussion on the
proposed dog ordinance which
was placed before the council at
the last regular meeting.
The need for more enforcement
is being urged for the protection
of dogs by dog owners from the
stray dogs at large and which are
a mbnaee to pets as well as chil
dren, as they frequently travel in
packs.
The amount of the fee to be
charged for ownership of dogs is
one of the issues of the meeting.
The proposed license fees of $5
and $10 per year is reported to be
considered too high for owners of
dog teams who depend on their
teams for hunting and fishing.

Alaska Will Audit
Every Income Tax
Return This Year
JUNEAU—“Every single in
come tax return in Alaska will be
audited this year” was the warn
ing sounded last week by Terri
torial Tax Commissioner Karl
Dewey.
Speaking before a Rotary lunch
eon in the Baranof Hotel, Dewey
told his listeners that additions to
his staff and streamlining of audit
practices will make it possible to
check “every single return” this
year.
Dewey extended the warning to
include tobacco tax collections,
stating, “Evasions in tobacco tax
payments are costing the territory
a half million dollars a year.”
He added: “Losses to the terri
torial treasury were running
$7,500 a year in Juneau alone.
Laxities in tobacco tax payments
on the part of Alaska merchants
will come under scrutiny.”
