Recommends Yes on 7 Editor Facts: At the present time the California State Emplyees' Retirement System one of the largest public funds in the country- is restricted by its investment policy to invest only in fixed interest bearing securities. They are prohibited from buying common stocks. Twenty five other states in the country have the power to invest public retirement funds in equities under proper safeguards. These funds participate in the growth of our national prosperity and share in the increased earnings of our economy. A balanced fund composed of part fixed interest bearing bonds and part equities would have the safety and earning power of both types of investment.

Inflation has already made serious inroads in the pur chasing power of fixed dollar income. An investment policy based on both fixed dollars and on equity investments which can appreciate in value could, in part, offset inflationary trends. Legislation should be enacted to permit such a balanced investment policy in California. A Yes vote on Proposition 7 is recommended. Henry P.
