Above are the (our towns in Emery .ounty first to win the right to fly the minor flags which will be awarded hy the. treasury department to communities communi-ties subscribing- their full quota of Lends of the Third Liberty loan. In 'he list are only those towns which have actually presented lists of subscribers sub-scribers and first payments to the Emery Em-ery County Bank, through which institution in-stitution all communities except Green Hiver and Woodside are expected to make their subscriptions in order that liie county may have due credit. Other Oth-er towns of the county are all working hard and it is confidently believed that every community in the county will have reached its quota before midnight. mid-night. Castledale's quota of $3600 was oversubscribed by $200 at four o'clock this afternoon, but the committee was still working and the amount will be over-subscribed by at least $1000 before be-fore the members of the committee think of quitting. Huntington also is reported to have over-subscribed its 'itto'.a of $4000 by a thousand dollars, while Lawrence was assured of reach-ins reach-ins its total of $1000 a rather large j mouthful for such a small place. Some of tile towns have been somewhat ' handicapped by the fact that they were not advised of their quotas until I yesterday (Friday) afternoon. This I was the ease with Castledale and the i towns south of here with but one exception ex-ception that we know of. The county's coun-ty's allotment was received late. Mohrland had its report in to Chairman Chair-man Nielsen and its signed applications applica-tions for the full $5700 at the bank pin aiier ine latter opened, and Elmo El-mo followed in a very few moments. Mohrland did not stop at reporting locally lo-cally but wired a duly attested statement state-ment to state headquarters in Salt Lake City and to district headquarters m San Francisco In an effort to win rational honors. It is not as vet known "'tinner or not they were successful, 'ut. whether or not, Emery county is sure of being placed on the patriotic ra-ip of the country by the splendid nergy its towns have displayed in this ampaign, and it is evident that Era-iry Era-iry county will be right up among the leaders if not fortunate enough to oc-''Jpy oc-''Jpy first place. The third Liberty loan campaign "ill last for four weeks, beginning '"day and ending May 4. Banks nl be given five days after the campaign's cam-paign's close to tabulate and report "inscriptions. Instead of requiring 2 per cent cash Payment with the subscription as in the second loan, 5 per cent is being asked for the third loan. Twenty per nt then will be due May 28; 35 per 'em July 18, and 40 per cent August 1 5. The treasury expects many sub-' bribers to pay in full on purchase and these early payments may be sufficient suffic-ient to redeem the $900,000,000 of cer-t'ficntes cer-t'ficntes of indebtedness falling due hefre May 9. Otherwise it may be necessary to refund the certificates with other short time lots. The payment dates have been arranged ar-ranged so none will come in June when the drain on the country's financial fi-nancial resources will be great on account ac-count of income and excess profits !axes due June 15.
