Show CHAIRMAN REPORTS ON WEEK'S BOND SALES IN STATE Loan d ive with Utah bond buying buy-ing characterized as "slow but fay according to Karl T. Ross, State Savings Bond Director. STotal sales through the sixth goal, Mr. Ross reported. "This reflects commendable effort ef-fort on the part of county sales -..;otis and some realization on the part of the public that this is a special campaign," said Mr Ross "But the hardest part of the iob is still ahead; the biggest portion por-tion of Utah's assigned goal is yet to be subscribed. We have until June 30 to do so. The people of Utah have always responded to appeals from the Secretary of the Treasury to do their share. With extra money in their pockets as a result of the income tax reduction and general prosperity, I am sure that extra investment in the form of Security Loan bonds during the rest of June will put Utah over the top." Mr. Ross urged an awareness upon the part of every citizen of the urgency of investing in an extra Security Loan bond during June for their own security as well as for that of the nation during these critical inflationary times. Tooele County stole the, spotlight spot-light this week by climbing into third place in percentage of quota attainment, with $51,395 or 51 of its $125,000 goal. Counties equal to or above the state average of quota attainment are: Grand, 136.6; Kane 50.7; Tooele 41; Box Elder 37; Davis 35; Carbon Car-bon 31.9; Weber 25.8; Utah 24. Mr. Ross drew attention to the outstanding Security Loan campaign cam-paign being conducted by the 4000 employees of Clearfield Naval Supply Depot near Layton, who have voluntarily assumed a $300,-000 $300,-000 quota for the drive larger than any one of 25 counties and outranked only by the 4 largest counties. |
