Show BOND SALES LAG IN CASH Some wards and communities in Cache county are lagging perceptibly percepti-bly in the Fifth War Loan drive. This uvs made clear today when a complete "box score" of sales from Jiuie 1 to June 27 was released re-leased by Adrian W. Hatch, county coun-ty chairman of the drive. The compilation shows that of the twelve Logan wards .only two, the third and the fourth, have completed their assignments. The Logan Fourth, under the leadership leader-ship of A. P. Christiansen and Charles D. Tate, was a . newcomer to the select list, with total sales o $71,087.50, which is $15,087.50 jnore than the quota assigned. Late Information received since the figures given below were com-' com-' piled shows, however, that the Sixth ward is also ''over the top." ' The organization in that ward, headed by E. S. Laurence and Edgar Ed-gar Berntson, has sold $28,162.50 in -war bonds, compared with a quota of $28,000. In the southern division the picture at present is none too bright. Not a single community has completed its assignment, and few of them are as much as 50 per cent through. In the north, only Benson has completed its quota, although Amalga is coming up fast. Most of the towns still have a long pull ahead of them. Commenting on these figures, Mr. Hatch said: "The figures speak for themselves. I urge all workers and every person In th county to study them and draw their own conclusions as to what remains to be done. There is little lit-tle more than a week to go before the drive ends. That's time enough if every worker will intensify his efforts and if every citizen in the county will search his conscience and ask himself if he has really bought bonds to the limit of his ability. |
