INSURANCE BILL MAY KEEP ALASKA RATES
 WITHIN REASON

WASHINGTON = The past week the House Committee on Merchant Marine and Fisheries gave extended attention to the bill. H. R. 6554 de- signed to amend the War Risk h. surance provisions of the Merchant Marine Act of 1886. as amended in 1940.
 Under existing law the Maritime Commission can provide insurance but only upon a self-sustaining or self-liquidating basis and not by way of providing any of the costs of such insurance out of Government funds. Conditions in Alaska and Hawaii are such that there is grave doubt whether the inhabitants of those territories can pay the premiums now charged or the much higher premiums which may soon be charg- ed upon shipments between the States and the two territories. The Price Control Administration is in terested in the subject in order to prevent an upward spiral of prices in the territories with resultant ec- onomic dislocation. The Committee has ordered a report on the amen datory bill, H. R. 6554, and included therein a provision authorizing the Maritime Commission to grant in- surance at nominal, or other, rate basis, as would be of material bene- fit to the war effort or (after con- sultation with the Office of Price or other ageneies) to the domestic economy.
 If the bill is enacted in the form approved by the Committee there is every reason to believe that the war risk insurance upon shipments to AL aska and to Hawaii will be kept within reasonable limits.

INSTRUCTORS CLUB IS
 OFFERING FIRST AID WORK

The following announcement IS made by the Instructors club of Wrangell:
 Alaska has become a potential field of attack by foreign planes and submarines, and with war comes casualties among civilians. Because of this anticipated emergency, number of persons have qualified themselves to teach courses in Stan dard and Advanced First Aid in 'Wrangell.
 The attention of the public is cal led to papers which will be in all the stores and some other places of business all next week. It is request ed that you enroll for a course in First Aid by placing your name on one of these papers. Glasses will be arranged as soon as possible, and ev- cry effort will be made by the local Instructors Organization to arrange convenient hours for these classes.
 Remember these courses are free; the instructors are giving their time free in an effort to acquaint you with first aid measures. The only expense is the cost of the textbook, which costs sixty cents. This is an opportunity you have been looking forward, too. Do not let the chance slip. Join at once and place your name on one of the papers and join the growing numbers who want to prepare for a wider field of service to their country and city.

Note how small savings mount up
 when everyone works together for
 the Nation as a whole. Note also
 that this plan refers only to the pur-
 chase of Defense Bonds out of reguI-
 ar income from week to week, which
 is much more helpful to the goveru- ment than to buy them from say ings already accumulated. Bear iu mind that in 10 years your savings
 invested in Series E Defense Bonds will increase by 331s per cent as indicated in the table. The figures used in this table are not intended as quotas either for individuals or for the Nation, but as suggestions of what we can do without complusion and without hardship. If every per son who receives a regular income in the form of wages or salary adopts a war savings program such as here suggested, 1t will mean total of over ten billion dollars d year, urgently needed to insure vic tory. Over 50 percent of this amount can be saved by those receiving less than S20O a week. The remainder will come from those eomparatiYely few people receiving higher incomes.

Here's Suggested Systematic
 Savings Plan Whereby You Can
 Help Uncle Sam And Yourself

The following table shows how every person who receives wages or salary can help win the war and provide for his own future security by buying Defense Bonds and Stamps.
 These figures suggest a systematic war savings program to fit every income. They are based on weekly averages and do not, therefore, take account of the individual Circum- stances Of every person. Those with no dependents or other responsibili- ties should be able to save a good deal more than is indicated on this table. Those with unusual respon- abilities may not be able to save so much. Each individual is the best judge of how much be can invest in Defense Bonds. But everyone knows that the war will be won only if he puts every cent he can into guns. and tanks, and planes. and ships. This is not a token war, nor pen ny-ante game. It is a fight to the finish against the most ruthless and relentless enemy We have ever faced.
 Look at this table and find your own income level See how many people are included in that group.

NUMBER 10


For income tax purposes there
can only be one head Of a family.
In addition to being the chief finsn-
DIAL support, the head Of a family
must be related by blood, marriage
or adoption to his dependents, and
he must have a legal or moral
obligation TO exercise family con-
troll over them and provide for
their care. As such. he Ia entitled
to the same exemption allowed a
married person-that IL. 81. 500.
There are some unusual cases
under this classification. A single
person, who supports and main
tains in one household one or more
individuals who are closely con-
nected with him by blood. by mar
rage, or by adoption. and whose
right to exercise family control
and provide for them is based upon
a legal or moral obligation. is the
head of a family, and as such Is
entitled To the exemption allowed
a married person-thst is, $500.
In addition, he may claim a credit
Of $500 for each OF such indi-
viduals who Is under is years of
age or incapable of self-support
because mentally or physically de-
fective, except If the taxpayer oc-
cupies the status of the head of a
family solely by reason Of the
existence of one or more of such
individuals. the credit of $500 for
one Of such individuals is not al
lowable.
Another example not so much
out of the usual is this: A widower
who supports in his household his
aged mother and his child II years
of age is the head of family. and
as such is entitled to an exemp-
ton of 81. 500 and credit Of $500
for one dependent.

Rowley pointed out that the
metal trades unions had not given
up the double time provision for
holidays. In fact. he pointed out.
