Show APPEAL MADE FOR SUPPORT OF SECURITY DRIVE An appeal for support of the Security Loan Drive was sounded for all Utahns today by Drive Chairman Charles L. Smith. Sales totaled $1,202,935 to date for four weeks of the 10-weeks campaign. This total ,did not include in-clude purchases made through regular payroll savings during April. It is expected that payroll purchases will considerably raise total sales. Nevertheless county chairmen were urged by Mr. Smith to renew their efforts as the drive neared the halfway mark. It was pointed out that the state goal is $8,750,-000. $8,750,-000. "If this is to be reached by June 30, it is obvious that we must step up the rate of purchases for the remainder of the campaign," said Mr. Smith. He again reminded the public that if extra money accruing to the citizens of Utah from income tax reductions were saved during May and June in the -form of security se-curity bonds, it would practically put Utah over the top. Grand and Box Elder counties continue to set the pace in percentage per-centage of goal attained, with 42 and 32.6 respectively. - ,Salt Lake county, with quota equivalent to more than half the total state goal, reached 14.7 of its goal, as compared to 13.7 by the state as a whole. Sales reports have not yet been received through the San Francisco Francis-co Branch of the Federal Reserve Bank from the seven counties of Utah that have no banks and must process their bond sales through post offices. |
