Much To Savings
—•—
The Securities and Exchange
Commission has issued a report
that during the second quarter of
the pr< sent year individuals in the
United States added $1,800,000,000
to their liquid savings. This was
almut $800,000,000 mo; o than in
the first quarter but far below the
avc: ag( of recent years. During
the second quarter, the report
showed. individuals increased
their holdings of cash and deposits
by $1.000.000,000:, added $900,000,
000 to tlu-ir equity in government
insurance; $700,000,000 to their
equity in private insurance; $000.
000.000 to their holdings of United
States government securities, and
$300,000,000 to their investment in
savings and loan associations.
Mortgage indebtedness of indi
viduals. however, also increased
during the peril i. According to
the statement, individuals increas
ed their mortgage indebtedness by
$1,000,000,000 and other consumer
indebtedness by $800,000,000 and
reduced their holdings of securi
ties other than government bv
$100,000,000. "The increase of $ 1
000.000,000 in individuals’ cash
and deposits reflected for the most
part a $700,000,000 increase in
time and savings deposits as com
pared to $1,000,000,000 during the
first quarter of 1947.” the com
mission said, adding: "Checking
accounts also showed an increase
during this quarter amounting to
$300,000,000. in sharp contrast to
a decline of $2,400,000,000 in the
previous quarter. There was lit
tle change in currency in the j
hands of individuals compared to
a $500,000,000 drop during the ;
first quarter.”
The report also noted a net in- !
crease of $400,000,000 in individ- 1
uals’ holdings of United States i
savings bonds and a $100,000,000
increase in other government se
curities.

Urges US Press
To "Pipe Down
—*—
Writing a short time ago in the
Editor and Publisher, newspaper
trade journal. Editor Robt. U.
Brown called on the United Stales
press to ' pipe down” and stop so
much war talk.
Brown wrote:
"Where are the sturdy voices
for peace wo once had among the
newspapers of this country? This
continual war tali: isn't going to
iit Ip. . . . AH we*-hi .cour.
tinue to think and talk of war
and we soon create the national
state of mind that is ready for
war . . .
! "We don’t want war. Neither
does Russia—in spite of her blus
tery. diplomatic attitude.
| “We don't know how it started
but war tal. has spread like yyild
j fire among our people. It’s dan
, gerous and foolhardy!
| "What we need is a lot more
calm, dispassionate reasoning.
Therein lies a duty of the Ameri
can press. . . . We think it is pos
sible for our reporters and our
editorial writers to report and
comment on these diplomatic ma
neuvers without injecting war
talk into their stories and edi
torials. Also, we believe it is nec
essary for these same editorial
writers to counsel public figures
! in our own country to tone down
J their utterances concerning a fu
ture war. . . .
"II we have war let somebody
else start it—let’s not talk our
selves into believing it is inevit
able or necessary. That could
happen.’’
