The judgment said that Mrs. Lariviere has been in a mental hospital since 1938, Her husband has to pay only $9 a month for board “in view of his p1 er Weather| carious financial condition.” In ‘earlier loans to the institution | recent years he hadn't even paid totalled $40,000,000. that much, and owed the hos- pital $929 up to March of last year ‘The board said that, to coun- | sel for the revenue department, | more than half of them new en- supporting a person means spending money for that per- on. “Nothing could be farther from the truth.” The board said that Mr, Lari- viere was “providing his wife with what she required, in view of her condition, for the needs of her sad and miserable life.” “What more could the tax- payer do, and what better could he do, than what he did under the circumstances in which he | found himself by reason for his wife's illness?” South dealer, North-South vulnerable. 2.30—Englith Uerature | 24S—John Drainie Tells A Story 3:00—News jbefore you invest a sum of money in it for a term of ye | This is particularly a problem for the newer and under - de- veloped countries, anxious for and in need of capital, but | whose future political stability may be uncertain, One suggestion made is insur- ance of private foreign invest- ments through some interna- | tional arrangement, Discussions are in the prelim- inary stage and, to provide di the World Bank recently co! pleted a study entitled Multila- teral Investment Insurance.
