Show Bond Sales Good Out Behind Quota County sales of Series E and H Savings Bonds Tn Utah during February as reported by the Federal Fed-eral Reserve Bank, exceeded those of any other February since 1947, according to word received from state headquarters by Wesley R. Dickerson, Savings Bond chairman chair-man for Duchesne County. Utah sales for the month including in-cluding allocation of purchases by civilian federal and military personnel per-sonnel were $1,461,389, bringing the state's total 1955 sales up to $2,935,485, or 14 of the year's quota, he reported. "The current-income series H Bond shows the greatest per cent of increase. Sales in January and February of 1955 were 75 higher than for the same period in 1954, and were almost 500 over this two-month period in 1953," he stated. He also pointed out that the series H Bond as well as the E Bond is eligible for personal trusts. "Total sales of $3,300 were accounted ac-counted for in Duchesne County in February, making an aggregate aggre-gate of $5,567 so far this year or 10.0 of the county's 1955 quota. March sales will determine which county will win the miniature Liberty Lib-erty Bell offered by the state Savings Sav-ings Bonds committee for the highest per cent of quota at the end of the first quarter. San Juan County now leads,- followed by Summit, Cache, Washington, Sanpete San-pete and Utah," he continued. |
