Change Famine Hits YalleyCity

While other towns and cities have
been crying for the small change and
the mint at Washington has been
working overtime to supply the de-
mand, Valley City has been going on
it's even way, up until last week hav-
ing plenty of pennies, nickles and
dimes, but last week the supply ran
out and one bank sent to St. Paul for
$50 in pennies in return they received
So worth. another bank sent for 5000
in nckles and dimes, they received $50
worth.
This IS working a. hardship on the
railroads and theaters who have been
using pennies in charging the war
taX--one passenger Office in town is
using postage stamps and the theaters
are charging even money and absorb
ing the war tax.
