YOUR MONEYS WORTH

BY SYLVIA PORTER

ucts are pouring into our mar
kets.
Your outlook for financial
independence in your older
years is the best ever. You're
the exception if you're not ELI
gible for social security benefits
and the dollar amount due you
when you reach retirement age
has been rising through the
years and will rise more. The
range of benefits has been ex-
panding steadily and will ex-
pand more. Private pension
plans are covering increasing
numbers and this trend also
continues strong.
So it goes-if your training
is sufficient to make you an at
tractive employe and you have
a job in a field which is grow
ing along with the economy.
Statistics Offered
Statistics to prove all this
can be found wherever you
turn. Employment at latest
count totaled 66.8 million, a
record for the month and the
number in non-farm jobs also
was at a peak Of 61.9 million
for the season. Personal in
comes in April were at an un-
precedented annual rate Of
$438.7 billion, up $29 billion or
about 8 per cent in Just one
year. The cost Of living at last
report was only a bit more than
l per cent over a year ago. You
know the validity Of this report
on savings rates. loan costs, So
cial security benefits.
1t is a paradox that at a time
when long-term unemployment
stands out as one of the great
est problems we face, the vast
majority Of Americans are liv-
ing the best financial days of
their lives.

Transactions were geared mainly TO

almost coming to a standstill at times
The bullish sentiment Of a week ago
in wheat was all but washed out BY

spectators took another look they de-

The Fairfax Board of County
Supervisors has fired the school
board for refusing to transfer
supervision of school construc-
ton to the county.
The supervisors Immediately
reappointed two members who
had been in favor of the trans
fer, and appointed two new
Misunderstanding three vacan-
cies for the time being. The
county governing heads also
announced that they do not
intend Ito press for such a
transfer at this time"
The five ousted members
charged yesterdays action by
the supervisors was a long
planned grab for power. They
said the supervisors demand
ed" that they transfer con-
struction or be fired.
Tension had been growing
between the two groups for sew
eral months, but events of the
last week brought their con-
flict to a head. School board
members in Fairfax serve at
the pleasure" of the super
visors.

Fairfax School Board Fired
In Row With Supervisors

At a closed session last Tues
day the Supervisors requested
school board approval of the
transfer. Five of the seven
school board members decided
Sunday that they would not
agree.
The Supervisors announced
their dismissal of the school
board at a 13-minute special
meeting late yesterday after
noon.
Supervisor Stuart DeBell re-
fused to go along with the fir
ing. He called it a drastic ac-
ton to restore public conf
dence, which is going to have
the reverse effect"
Board member Robert C. Cot
ten said he voted to dismiss
the school board with utmost
reluctance"
Chairman William H. Moss
read a statement approved, G
to l, by the Supervisors.
1t said the County Board ar
rived at a reluctant conclu-
sion" to dismiss the school
board when it became obvious
that this board can never have
confidence in the school board
