ERIVE IN ASK FOR "WATTY" ROWLAND I I A LUMBERTON, N. C. Lack Savings For Postwar Buying Only Small Per Cent Have Savings, And They Don't Plan To Spend it For Postwar Goods. Washington. June 18.

The great mass of American con- isumers will have to rely on current earnings and credit to finance the heavy postwar buying they plan, a federal survey indicated today. The study, made by the bureau I of agricultural economics for the federal reserve board, presented this picture: Two out of every five families have, on the average, only $4J each saved in such quickly cash- able assets as savings bonds, other securities and bank deposits. This group, although account- ing for 40 per cent of the nation's i failles, came out of the war years with only "one per cent of all such Lumberton Wilmington Masonboro Inlet High Low a Edwards Sport Shop 1897 TO 1946 "The Finest in Banking Service' PICTURE OF A THOUGHTFUL FATHER Every father has a desire to see his family well taken of after he is fone.

The next 30 per cent of the families, occupying the middle ground on the national scale, accounted for an additional 11 1-2 per cent of the ready assets. in contrast, the top 30 per cent of the nation's families emerged holding 87 1-2 per cent of the quick assets, with each family: credited with at least $1.100. And the topmost 10 per cent of this family segment represented 60 per cent of all such national assets, averaging $10,500 per family. Minor Factor A federal reserve official said the'survey findings pointed to the following conclusions: 1. The concentration of savings in the hands of a small number of families makes them a considerably less important factor in financing consumer purchases than originally anticipated.

2. The mass of lacking substantial savings. must depend on current earnings to pay for food," clothing 1 and other ordinary expenses of living. The survey itself pointed to possible inflationary pressures in investment fields real estate and securities because of concentration of savings in the hands of rmall numbers not likely to neeJ them for consumre purchases. On the other hand, it reported that the "overwhelming majority" of people with savings had no expectation of spending their "nest-egg" on consumers goods, this year.
