Members Money To Be Spent On Homes Most Vets Say ThJrty-on- e packets of bonus bonds arrived in Duchesne Tuesday, according to Wm. H. Case postmaster. Of that number only fifteen packets have been called for, ha stated, and seven have made application to have the bonds converted into cash. The bonds will be sent to Salt Lake City to be cashed. In interviewing several of the Veterans who have received their bonds, it was found that most of them expect to spend the money on their homes, in remodeling and painting or fumish.ngs. Two Vets will invest their money in a new business in Duchesne. One man said h 's entire bonus would go toward the payment of debts. To Buy Home County Clerk Arthur Goodrich saitf he would cash his bonds for the purchase of a home in Duchesne. District Reemployment Manager Ernest Crocker said that whatever money he received from cashed bonds would be spent with Duchesne merchants exclusively. Supprisingly, not one of the Veterans approached, expects to gpmd any of his bond money on vacation trips or for personal the pleasure, although some tf 00 $50 than less for small ch'cks will go for that purpose, it was thought. Although there was no way of checking accurately, the packets average about $500.00 each. births" Mr. and Mrs. Reed Cowan announce the arrival of a baby girl, born June 14th.
