Attend
Funeral—
Those attending the funeral of
Mrs. Lillian Brown in Portland
Thursday of last week were Mrs.
Tom Crawford and Mrs. Frank
Lane of Wilark.
Mrs. Brown was a past worthy
matron of the Nehalem chapter,
O.E.S., and left here several
years ago—after the death of
her husband, Jim Brown, who
had owned what is now Bush’s
furniture store and funeral home.
She is survived by two sisters,
Mrs. Myrtle Peters and Mrs. Al­
mira Tompkins, five nieces and
five nephews.
HE above chart, showing how
the average American fared in
national income changes in the last
twelve months is based on the
monthly consumers’ study of In­
vestors Syndicate of Minneapolis.
The American public in May had
a “real income" of $1.27, or an in­
crease of twenty-seven cents on the
dollar over the same 1942 month.
This “real income" is not a sub­
traction of cash income and expen­
ditures but an average relative of
these figures designed to show how
living costs affect adjusted income
dollars.
Cash income of the American
public in May was $1.35 for every
$1 a year earlier. This gain of
thirty-five cents on the dollar re­
sulted from the following changes
per dollar: wages up thirty-nine
cents, salaries thirty-two cents and
other income up thirty-nine cents
on the dollar. Investment income
at 95 cents was down five cents.
Rents and clothing in May were
unchanged compared with a year
ago. Food was up seventeen cents.
Miscellaneous items were one cent
higher than in May, 1942.
