formed as to what is going forward.
Phoenix Far Behind.
over half the sum to be raised in
the county should come from the
Phoenix district, for the Phoenix dis
trict is about 3l25,000 behind in its
quota for the War Saving Stamps.
Only six of the cities and districts
in the county have made their quotas
up to December /. the two largest be-
ing Tempe and Glendale, in each or
which a remarkable record has been
made. Had the whole county done its
duty by the War Savings Stamps to
date there would now have been but
$4,000 to raise in Maricopa county be-
fore the first of the year, instead of
s222, 0eS.
County headquarters for the drive
will be maintained in the War Work
building, the old Central school and
any who will volunteer to work can
he assigned by ealing there and seeing
City Manager Harry Thompson. who
is in charge of the work in the Phoe-
nix district.
One thing all of those in charge of
the, drive emphasize is that there will
be no effort TO secure investors for
more than the county's quota of the
War Savings Stamps. If by any chance
investors to the amount Of s222 00S
should be secured today, then the drive
would be over so far as the Maricopa
County War Savings committee Is
concerned.
one-haIf BY Night.
However there is no danger of any
such speedy termination, for all agree
that it will be big job to put Mari
copa county over the top in this, the
Gsst big patriotic campaign of the
year. If the county fails this time it
will be the first failure it has scored
in any patriotic campaign since the
war started, and that is why the
motto for this drive is: For the
Honor of Maricopa County"
With every chairman and his com
mittees ready to start" the big drive
will be on at 9 o'clock this morning,
and it is expected that Phoenix will
have raised one half the amount by
evening. The victory over the Huns
must not divert us from our great
purpose.
There can be no relaxation here I'M
til peace is permanently established;
it will take billions to make peace,
| just as it needed billions to win the
war-and we must invest in War Saw
| ings Stamps to bring our boys home
| to US, and it is our patriotic duty to
save and invest now to the utmost.
