Scott. , Warren Families Are Stashing Away Fundi NEW YORK?Residents of Warren County seem to have their financial affairs un der good control. As a whole, they are living well within their incomes, spending much less than they are earning. Some of the surplus Is being used by them to reduce their consumer debt. The remain der , or a considerable part of it, is being put Into savings. The evidence Is seen In the rise In their bank deposits, In their savings and loan accounts and In their purchases of U. S. savings bonds. During the past year, It is estimated, Warren Countyfam illes stashed away some $1, 135,000 in liquid assets. As with people In other parts of the country, they have grown cautious. High prices, unem ployment, strikes and other economic conditions have led them to postpone some of their blg-tlcket purchases and wait for a more favorable cli mate. Meanwhile, they are accumu lating a sizeable nest egg. This pool of purchasing power, when released, could spark a big buy Massenburg Rites Held On Monday Funeral services for Mrs. Nannie White Massenburg, 91, were conducted at Emmanuel Episcopal Church on Monday at 10:00 a. m. by the Rev.

She was married to the late John Lioyd Massenburg in 1908, and lived in Warrenton until 1965 when she made her home with Mr. and Mrs. Henry F. Twltty. She was a life-long member of EmmanuelEplsco pal Church, and for many years a Sunday School teacher. She was a charter member of the Warren County Chapter, United Daughters of the Confederacy, and served as Chapter pre si dent for three two-year terms at dif ferent periods. She also served as historian and a number of other offices. She was aformer member of the D.A.R. chapter. She is survived by a son, Walter BoydMassenburgofEs condldo, Calif.; three daugh ters, Mrs. Homer P. Starr if Baltimore, Md., Mrs. Henry F. Twltty of- Warrenton and Mrs. William A.

The figures on savings are based upon national findings reported by the Commerce De partment and other agencies and upon income and sales data for each community. They show, as would be ex pected, that the amount a fam ily can save depends primarily on how much it has left after paying its billsfornecessities. Those with merely sub sistence incomes were not able to save anything, of course. Those at the $5,000 after-tax level put aside 3.0 percent of it, on average and those at $7,000 about 5.2 percent. In the high er income brackets the rates were considerably larger. In Warren County, where the average disposable Income per household was $6,355 last year, according to the latest annual report, the overall rate of sav ings was 4.7 percent. It amount ed to $300 per household. Implied Is that the rate in each community is similar, for each income group, to what it is in the rest of the country. For the local population as a whole, the savings in the past year reached the impos ing total of $1,135,000. Nationally, such savings are touching $47.8 billion for the year, an increase of $5.2 bil lion over the previous year.
