The country's economy is in for
tough Shedding" in five hundred
years, as if it wasn't in pretty
tight spot right now with a 200
billion dollar deficit. But this is
only peanuts" as you'll find out
if you read a story that appeared
in News Week of July 81 under a
finance heading.
We quote:
Only A TrilIion
To Jonathan Holden, of Pine
Plains, N. Y, penny saved is con-
siderably more than penny
earned. A disciple of Benjamin
Franklin's theories on thrift and
compound interest, the lean, 79-
ycar-old lawyer has figured that q
penny invested today at per cent
compounded for 1000 years will
become one thousand trillion dol
lars.
When the U. S. Court Of Appeals
in New York recently turned down
the governments bid to collect
personal income taxes on a 500
year, one million dollar trust set
up by Holden, the theory posed a
fiscal nightmare. If Holdeen's one
million dollar trust we're allowed
to accumulate untaXcd at regular
compOund-interest rates, according
to Internal Revenue lawyers, it
would, by the final payoff in 2444,
have destroyed the tax base of
the nation While the IRIS men
couldn't set figure, they estimated
that Holdeen's beneficiaries might

the country-a situation clearly

ments are of the opinion that the
livestock divisions will be par
ticularly good this year with an
overflow number of entries for
the horse show. There was some
uncertainty as to the number of

rainfall. Many crops that ordinarily
would be exhibited are not quite
mature

Name n. T. Thayer
To New Position
In Garrett Bank
Will Be Special Representa-
tive In Conservation Of
Natural Resources

r. Thomas Thayer, Jr., who re-
signed last month as district for
ester for the Maryland State de
partmcnt of forests and parks, has
been appointed as special rep
rcscntatiVe in conservation of ma
tural resources by the Garrett Ma
tional Bank in Oakland. it was
announced by Wesley Schaible,
cashier.
The appointment was approved
by the Board of Directors at a
recent meeting Mr. Thayer will
begin his new duties September l..
Mr.. Schaible said it was the
opinion of the board that wise
conservation policy was necessary
for the future welfare of this coun-
ty and that Mr. Thayer would be
available to assist landowners,
business men, timber operators,
and others in land management
problems, recreation possibilities,
industrial development and miner
al development.
This is an entirely new position
for the bank and one that should
serve a vital need for the area.
He said that banks had tried SINH
lar methods in other areas which
had unique success.
Mr.. Thaycr is graduate of the
School of Forestry, West Virginia
university and had spent IL years
with the department of forests and
parks, the last Is months as dis
trict forester
He helped to organize the Gar
rett County Conservation associa-
ton and the Maryland Christmas
Tree Growers association and is
vice-president of the latter at the
present time.
Bank officials feel this is an i'm
portant step where private enter
prise is stepping in to accept the
responsibility that previously had
been done by government agen-
cies. They feel that the county
must put its energy in conserving
natural resources and that this
was basic to growth. They cited
the Harco company as the most re-
cent example. The company settled
in this area because it felt there
would be sufficient lumber to
keep it in operation and to help it
to grow.
Thayer said he planned to spend
a large part of his time in the
field to discuss conservation prac-
tees with the people of the county.
