Courses are interesting and

Illness, accidents and dis
aSters bring to light the real
need of having enough guam
titles Of blood available to
meet all kinds Of emergencies.
Roger Cutler, Jr, blood pro-
gram chairman, said blood
needs are on the upgrade. He
urged people of this communi-
ty to give blood to help their
neighbors as well as them
selves.

Winter months are of the
greatest concern to the Red
Cross with fires in homes. &C
clients on the highways and
the continuing need for blood.
Since all Red Cross services
are organized and meShed to-
gether to alleviate human suf-
fering, it was pointed out to-
day that greatest care should
be taken in the home to pre-
vent accidents and to wipe out
their causes.
In the case of fires, Arthur
Burrell, chairman Of Disaster
Service for the Boston Metro
politan Chapter, warned ag-
ainst careleSSnesS. Smoking in
bed, careless disposal of cigar
cites and dirty heating sys-
TENS cause too many fire ira
gedieS.
He urged householders to
take every measure to prevent
fires.
Highway and home accid-
ents also take a great toll
of lives and cause disabling
injuries.
The Red Cross first aid di-
rector E. Forest Hallet said
the Red Cross has one anti
dote for accidents and that's
by taking first aid instruction.
Hallet claims the people who
take these courses acquire a
"built-in" allergy to the caus-
es of accidents.
Other than that, he said,
persons trained in first aid
can help save lives that other
wise may be lost if effective
first aid is not applied in
time.

the Boston City Hospital.
Mrs. Gabourel was born in
Preston, Nova Scotia, about
eighty-two years ago She has
been in poor health and house
bound for the past several
years.
She has been anticipating the
end for a long while, and the
many friends who tried to ease
her last days were witnesses
to her slow. but steady decline.
On New Years Day she was
stricken while talking on the
phone to Mrs. Mildred Settlers,
who, with her husband, quick
ly went to her side, and sum-
moned other friends. She was
taken to the hospital. about
midnight, where she passed
away as stated above.

Cost OF Living
Hike Expected

Massachusetts families can
expect a slight increase in
living expenses for 1857, says
Verda M. Dale, Extension home
management specialist at the
University of Massachusetts,.
Living costs have been creep
ing up all over the nation, but
have been rising faster in this
state.
For the nation, the Con-
sumner Price Index, after re-
manning relatively stable Tor
four years, rose 2 per cent in
the past year, most Of this
since last spring. In MaSsachu-
settS the Department of Com
merce reports that the cost
of consumer goods and SER
vices inched up 7 per cent in
November and stood 4 per
cent above November 1855.
In this state, the biggest in
crease over last year occurred
in housing up 5.4 per cent.
Families recognize this in such
things as higher rents, in
creased costs Of building, and
higher rates for mortgages.
Fuel and light avraged 5 per
cent higher. Food is 3.6 per
cent higher, and apparel near
ly 2 per cent higher. In gen.
eral, these are the trends for
the entire United States.

Help Joe Louis
Pay Tax Debt

A campaign to raise a fund
to enable Louis to settle his
income tax debt has been
launched with former heavy
weight champion Jack Demp-
sey as honorary chairman.
In Washington, D. C. the
question is asked. Why does
the U S. Tax officials con-
tinue to hound Joe Louis for
over a million dollars in back
taxes with interest when it
knows he does not have the
money?
An interesting theory was
recently set forth as the much
publicized case got more and
more analyzing. And it's this:
other former heavyweight
champions as Jack Dempsey
and Gene Tunney are very,
very successful wage earners.
The championship has brought
them fame and wealth long
after retiring from boxing.
The Government therefore
reasons that Joe Louis can yet
hit upon wealth, too, at least
potentially it's on paper that
he could. And that's why tax
officials have not ceased to
hound him.
Take Tunney for instance.
He heads a number of business
enterprises and is worth con-
siderably so that if he had the
tax problem Joe has now, he
could easily pay it off. Jack
Dempsey is doing fine, too, in

the restaurant business and
the oil business. Both show
that the earning power of a
former heavyweight champion
Is tremendous even after
they retire from the ring.
Conceivably Joe Louis could
do the same, But the facts do
show in Joe's case that he has
entered a number of business
es soft drinks, milk, bread,
distributing, etc. and none of
them has come off with anv
profit. Therefore TO expect Joe
to come up with a money
maker seems to the layman
in the street = only very un-
likely But Uncle Sam keeps
hoping. And he could use the
million bucks Joe owes. Maybe
soon now he will swap un-
reality for reality and make
some kind of settlement with
Joe that he can afford now and
not possibly, later.

million dollars in arrears in

The Globe story goes on to
say:
"The campaign win include

might free Louis from his huge
coil Of back taxes and penal
ties at a rate of around Is or
