I'm just getting home from Congress." Leaders to Encourage School Savings Plan Officers of state women's organizations or-ganizations have offered active support to all schools in Utah to help in the operation of the School Savings Stamp program for the coming year. Mrs. Nancy C Robinson, Director Direc-tor of the women's division of the U. S. Treasury savings bonds organization, or-ganization, meeting with leaders of the Utah State P.T.A., Utah Federation of Women's Clubs and American Legion Auxiliary in Salt Lake City last week, outlined the functional application application of the Stamp Day program in teaching thrift in school. The Treasury Department is asking the various organizations to cooperate in (1) asking the superintendents and principals to install or stimulate the plan; (2) offering help in its operation; and (3) making available revolving funds for savings stamps so that the children may have the actual experience of transacting business, according to Mrs. Robinson. "With the very strong endorsements endorse-ments of the program by the State Board of Education as voiced by Superintendent E. Allen Bateman, by Miss Martha Shull, President of the National Education Association, Asso-ciation, also the American Legion Auxiliary, the General Federation of Women's Clubs, and of the teaching of thrift by Mrs. Rollin Brown, President of the National Congress of Parents and Teachers, we are confident that school boards and local citizens will get behind the program," said Mrs. O. Jay Kingston, Utah state women's division bond chairman. "We feel definitely that children should be, encouraged to earn their money through some activity and then through the school Stamp Program to save part of those earnings. It should not be a dole. Children should learn to work and learn td save," Mrs. Kingston continued. |
