Rate 200 Above 1939 Figure
SAN FRANCISCO W The
Tar West ipent $10,000,000,000 last
month, on a conservative estimate.
The estimate was based on the
cashing of checks totaling B,265,-
150,000 In 31 cities In the Salt
Lake-Seattle-San Diego triangle.
That figure was reported Tuesday
by the Federal Reserve Bank.
The rest of the ten billion esti
mate for July was spending by
check in hundreds of smaller com
munities, and total cash spending
for 11 purpose. The latter is fig
ured at 10 per cent of the check
total, but probably runs higher in
view of the large supply of cur
rency. Total spending ran more than
three times that of the 1939
month, just before the war storm
broke in Europe. There is the
basis for one's own estimate of
inflation, for whoever cares to

make it: Triple the spending on a
smaller quantity of goods (not to
mention quality). The smaller
quantity was emphasized by the
dearth of automobiles, a business
that normally absorbs a large
amount of money ,and In 1939
took around $211,000,000 for new
passenger cars in California alone.
Per capita spending was about
714 last month, compared with
around l9i In July, 193.
The increase in population since
1939 went with an Increase in
spending of better, than 12,000,-
000,000 a month, at last month's
average for roughly $3,000,000
new westerners.
Bank reports indicated that
checking deposits hit a July high
mark of around $8,885,000,000.
That was well over three times
the estimated $2,493,000,000 for
ju)y, 1939.
The roughly equal rate of ex-
pension of funds and spending in-
I dlcated price inflation was more
closely connected with the amount
of funds than with the rate of
spending the average dollar, the
latter haying; slowed slightly. The'
slowing in the rate of turnover
: of the average dollar suggested
buyers, by their own restraint,
may have exerted a strong force
to temper price advances, despite
the great total amount spent.
July spending showed centers
of war industry recovering qulck-
ly from the postwar downswing in ,
I money turnover.

Water Board
OKs Contract
(CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1)
day night included the approval
by the board of a request by the
engineering department for ma
terials to construct a new sub
station at Friendly St. and 28th
Ave.
Stevens and Koon, consulting
engineers, discussed with the
board the feasibility of construct
ing new filter plant at one of
two proposed sites about seven
miles up the McKenzie River. The
plant would eventually have a ca-
paeity of 75,090,000 gallons,
enough to handle Eugene's water
demands after many years of
growth.
The board also performed Its
annual charging-off of delinquent
accounts. The delinquency was
only .021 of one per cent of the
total revenue, one of the lowest
figures In many years.
It was announced at the meet
ing that Vernon J. Poindexter,
electrical operations superintend
ent, had left for Berkeley, Calif.,
to look over six transformers
which, If they are in good condi
tion, will be purchased.
H. G. Wells
Dies at Home
(CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1)
British opinion took the form of
a caustic attack upon the mon
archy. It was published July 6 in
the weekly "Socialist Leader." In
It Wells declared that if there
were any truth in rumors that the
royal family were involved in the
case of Sir Oswald Mosley, leader
of the Union of British Fascists,
"then there is every reason why
the House of Hanover should fol
low the House of Savoy into the
shadows of exile and leave Eng
land free to return to its old re
publican traditions."
The public generally appeared
to resent the Wells attack. Most
people, including those in position
to know, were convinced that the
royal family never was interested
to the slightest degree in the
Fascist black shirt movement In
this country.
Wells' attempt to forecast his
life span was wide of the mark.
He predicted he would die at 97.
In the I930's he wrote his own
obituary, describing himself as
dying penniless in the Paddington
poorhouse. The publishing world
will be astounded if his will does
not disclose that he died a very
wealthy man.
Last November Wells said in a
book entitled "The Mind at the
End of Its Tether" that "the end
of everything we call life is close
at hand and cannot -be evaded."
AT STAFFORD

Spores reunion was held at the
