Thursday, April 2, 1964 The Frances Hubbard Diaries
April 2, 1964 Thursday, mostly cloudy and cool. I cleaned up the house, went to Escondido in the afternoon and grocery shopped. Marilyn and Jim are here for supper. Dean stayed overnight as Marilyn worked from 10 pm to 6 am. I wrote to Mother, Dougie, Gerald, and Evelyn Bailey. $150 unemployment check came.
Comment: The check does not sound like a lot but: $150 in 1964 has a relative wage of $1,743.94 paid to a Production Worker today.
