Rode* Brown, JrM New
Chairman of County
Savings Bond Committee
Fanners can strike a heavy blow against inflation iby investing their surplus money in United States Savings Boqds, Chairman J. Rodes Brown, Jr., lof Rappahannock County Savings Bonds Committee* said today.
Savings Bonds represent the least inflationary type of government borrowing during the present period of defense spending, Mr, Brown added. Savings Bonds sold to individuals are not transferrable and therefore cannot be used as the basis for further, spending while held by the individual.
Although a person can cash his Savings Bonds any time after 60 days from the date Bonds are issued, most people hold their Series E Bonds until the maturity date ten years later. Series E Bonds held to maturity increase by onethird in value. Maenwhile, they; are a reserve for emergency needs.'
Since farmers as much as any group in the country know the hard lessons resulting from price inflation, they will be interested in helping to prevent wild inflation during the present national situation, Mr. Brown said.
U. S. Savings Bonds can be bought at any bank or post office^
