Defense Bond drive now nearing its close, Mr. Wesley Wes-ley R. Dickerson, county chairman chair-man urged today. "Our county will be credited for Defense Bonds purchased by Saturday, November 10," Mr. Dickerson said. "Our accomplishments up to October 27, insofar as sales have been reported to the Federal Reserve Bank, is 20.21 per cent of the sales objective assumed by the county." Charles L. Smith, state chairman chair-man for U. ,S. Defense Bonds, called attention to the success of volunteer bond workers in two counties, Iron County with sales of 164 per cent of the assigned goal, and Tooele County with 107 per cent. "It's a strange coincidence," said Mr. Smith, "but in the areas ar-eas of Utah with the most men on the fishting front, the home front has made the best sales record." Washington, Beaver, and Davis Dav-is counties were also cited for excellent work toward reaching their sales goal. |
