1 JAMESTOWN POST-JOURNAL — Monday Evening, January 14,1946 Clothing Committee Issues Appeal for Packing Cartons An appeal for boxes was issued today by Julius Blaha, chairman of the victory clothing collection for overseas relief, who said that a dire need of cartons to be used in packing exists at headquarters, 219 North Main Street. Although the majority of con- tributions have been packed in boxes before delivery to the fire stations, Mr. Blaha said a tremend- ous amount of clothing is piling up at the main depot. Foreseeing the possibility of a bottleneck arising from the jamming of the center with unpacked clothing, Mr. Blaha urged the cooperation of residents in thei appeal. Saturday's donations showed no appreciable difference in the total collection, at the end of ftie first week of the drive, but the com- mittee voiced appreciation at the opening response which yielded half a carload of clothing. Mr. Blaha reminded citizens to pack shoes separately and urged' that all boxes be tied securelji be- fore delivery to the nearest fire station. President Truman today issued an appeal to the American public for donations of clothing for the destitute persons of Europe, China and the Philippines.* "This winter more than 300,- 000,000 war victims throughout the world are paying the cost of victory in poverty, * disease, cold and hunger," Mr. Truman said. "In all the countries devastated by war, lack of clothing intensi- fies the hardships. The need is immediate and desperate. "I therefore urge every Ameri- can to heed the appeal of the Vic- tory Clothing Collection for Over- seas Relief. The spare garments contributed by Americans last spring have helped clothe twenty- five million men, women and chil- dren in Europe, China and the Philippines and have made possi- ble the start of their rehabilita- tion this winter. "In sharing our comparative plenty with the less fortunate once again, we make the Victory Clothing Collection an expression of our gratitude to the Almighty for the victory won at so great a cost."

Crowd Descends On Tax Office Final Estimates Due Tomorrow The annual game of "movin's up" was being played all day to- day inside and outside the office of the Collector of Internal Re- venue In the Wellman Building, as the last-minute race between tax-payers and the Jan. 15 dead- line began at 8:30. The deadline tomorrow should not be confused with the final date for filing income tax returns March 15, the Internal Revenue Department pointed out. Tomorrow is the last day for filing final estimates of 1945 in- come, and affects those persons who had incomes of $5,000 or more and those who had income during the year of $100 or more from which no tax was withheld. These persons were required to file an estimate of Income for the year last April and were required to make quarterly payments on the estimated tax during 1945. Tomorrow is the last day amended estimates may be filed and at the same time final pay- ment of tax should be made. Persons who do not fall into the classes which are required by law fo file tomorrow, have until March 15 to file returns and pay the tax* on 1945 incomes. From the moment the doors were opened this morning the line reached all the way to the door. At one period in mid-morning some half dozen men and women had to form a line in the hall out- side, the door, moving up one or two paces at Intervals when some- one would be called from the row of chairs outside the counter to step up to a desk inside for con- sultation. The chair would im- mediately be taken by a weary standee, and those still standing would resume their patient gazing about the room, the desultory conversation starting up again as the waiters seemed refreshed by the break* in monotony. Another break would come when a tax- payer who had finished the income tax transaction for another year would break gratefully through the line and escape to.the open spaces. i According to Leo Keegan, deputy collector, the rush is about the same in numbjers as in former years on the next, to the last day.

JAMESTOWN POST-JOURNAL — Monday Evening, January 14,1946

Clothing Committee Issues Appeal for Packing Cartons

An appeal for boxes was issued today by Julius Blaha, chairman of the victory clothing collection for overseas relief, who said that a dire need of cartons to be used in packing exists at headquarters, 219 North Main Street.

Although the majority of con­tributions have been packed in boxes before delivery to the fire stations, Mr. Blaha said a tremend­ous amount of clothing is piling up at the main depot. Foreseeing the possibility of a bottleneck arising from the jamming of the center with unpacked clothing, Mr. Blaha urged the cooperation of residents in thei appeal.

Saturday's donations showed no appreciable difference in the total collection, at the end of ftie first week of the drive, but the com­mittee voiced appreciation at the opening response which yielded half a carload of clothing.

Mr. Blaha reminded citizens to pack shoes separately and urged' that all boxes be tied securelji be­fore delivery to the nearest fire station.

President Truman today issued

an appeal to the American public for donations of clothing for the destitute persons of Europe, China and the Philippines.*

"This winter more than 300,-000,000 war victims throughout the world are paying the cost of victory in poverty, * disease, cold and hunger," Mr. Truman said. "In all the countries devastated by war, lack of clothing intensi­fies the hardships. The need is immediate and desperate.

"I therefore urge every Ameri­can to heed the appeal of the Vic­tory Clothing Collection for Over­seas Relief. The spare garments contributed by Americans last spring have helped clothe twenty-five million men, women and chil­dren in Europe, China and the Philippines and have made possi­ble the start of their rehabilita­tion this winter.

"In sharing our comparative plenty with the less fortunate once again, we make the Victory Clothing Collection an expression of our gratitude to the Almighty for the victory won at so great a cost."

Crowd Descends On Tax Office

Final Estimates Due Tomorrow

The annual game of "movin's up" was being played all day to­day inside and outside the office of the Collector of Internal Re­venue In the Wellman Building, as the last-minute race between tax-payers and the Jan. 15 dead­line began at 8:30.

The deadline tomorrow should not be confused with the final date for filing income tax returns March 15, the Internal Revenue Department pointed out.

Tomorrow is the last day for filing final estimates of 1945 in­come, and affects those persons who had incomes of $5,000 or more and those who had income during the year of $100 or more from which no tax was withheld.

These persons were required to file an estimate of Income for the year last April and were required to make quarterly payments on the estimated tax during 1945.

Tomorrow is the last day amended estimates may be filed and at the same time final pay­ment of tax should be made.

Persons who do not fall into the classes which are required by law fo file tomorrow, have until March 15 to file returns and pay the tax* on 1945 incomes.

From the moment the doors were opened this morning the line reached all the way to the door. At one period in mid-morning some half dozen men and women had to form a line in the hall out­side, the door, moving up one or two paces at Intervals when some­one would be called from the row of chairs outside the counter to step up to a desk inside for con­sultation. The chair would im­mediately be taken by a weary standee, and those still standing would resume their patient gazing about the room, the desultory conversation starting up again as the waiters seemed refreshed by the break* in monotony. Another break would come when a tax­payer who had finished the income tax transaction for another year would break gratefully through the line and escape to.the open spaces. i

According to Leo Keegan, deputy collector, the rush is about the same in numbjers as in former years on the next, to the last day.
