| WHY INCORPORATE (from page 6)
Government to that community to be used
as it may see fit. At the present tine, a
survey shows that approximately $10, 000
a. year in Federal and territorial taxes
is being collected in Kodiak. This money
jgoes away from this community, never to
|return. But, under incorporation, all of
jit will cone back to us to be spent by
jour City Council for fire and police pro
jection, schools, playgroundsh-civic im
provements, etc. Do I hear any objection
tof this gratuity ?
As an incorporated tovm, we would be
able to secure grants and loans from the
Federal Government for construction of
sewers, streets, public buildings, schools
and water works. Are there any objections
to having these beneficial improvements
made here ? / . «* ' v

It is true that we have a Public
Utility District Board, who have been
endeavoring to the best of their ability
to provide the things which the law
creating it, allows then to do. But the
activities of the Board are very limited
and restricted - in fact, to such an ex
tent that they cannot provide the necess
are facilities to which Kodiak citizens
are entitled.
It is also voiced that under munici
pal government, our property taxes would
be higher than under the present tax
scheme. But such is NOT the case. We coulc
lower our property tax and still rorive
more revenue than under the present plan.
We would have the return of Foderal taxes,
We would have our return of the city’s
share of the liquor taxos. We would have
revenue from automobile driver’s licenses
from the city magistrates, and from other
sources which are now closed to us.
In other words - INCORPORATION will
moan PROSPERITY, PERMANENCE and PROGRESS.

From a concensus ofopinion among the
businessmen of Kodiak, it is very apparon*
that ’’Mike” will receive the prestige
rightfully due that office, and will ad
minister the union’s affairs in a just,
right and courteous manner.
A great big orchid to you, Mike.
