Arkansas Supreme Court Rules Taxable Income Includes Out of State Earnings
The Arkansas Supreme Court held that income earned in another state by a resident is subject to Arkansas income tax. Harmon Morgan, a Texarkana resident with all income from a Texarkana clothing store, faced $370.49 tax and penalties on 1943 income of $12,737.73. The decision, by Justice Minor W. Milner, affirmed the lower court's collection order and noted the case did not resolve act 162 of 1943 though it would not nullify tax powers.

Jap Labor Groups Contain Some Communists
General MacArthur reported that one of Japan's large labor federations shows direct Communist ties though the extent is hard to gauge. The February occupation report cited the Nationwide Committee of Industrial Unions with two Communist officers and many Communist influenced groups. It noted that many Japanese suspect CIU is Communist controlled though overall Communist influence within labor is difficult to determine. CIA claims about 1,250,000 of Japan's 4,400,000 organized workers.
