WAR SAVINGS REPORT

You will find herein complete re-
turns as shown by the pledges as {
result of the war savings stamp drive
just closed. The figures include cash
sales to July 1st., and they alo include
the pledges taken in March by the
Minute men.
The pledges are being listed in al
phabetical order and will be turned
over to the banks and post offices
named on the cards as soon as the
listing is completed. A copy of these
lists will be retained by the County
chairman and the holders of the cards
will be asked to report from time to
time as the pledges come due. The
county committee believes that the
pledges will be paid and that it is for
the best interests of the country to
publish the names of all who fail to
make good on these pledges and it
will be the policy of the committee
in charge of the campaign to furnish
the newspaper in the vicinity with the
names of all whose pledges are de-
linquent more than thirty days. 1t is
hoped and expected that the news
paper OF the county will keep the
people advised to the effect that it
is their duty to call at the bank or
postoffice named in their pledge and
fulfill their promise by buying the
amount that has been pledged. AS
all the detail work of handling, listing
and collecting these pledges is done
without pay it would add to the now
over worked committee further
burden if notices were sent to each
person who has pledged. People OF
this county want to do their part in
this war and as a whole they have
been doing that and the committee
feels sure they will continue by max
ing good these pledges without fur
ther effort on the part of the COM
mittee in charge.
The quota mentioned is that as
signed to each community in the be-
ginning of the campaign. After the
quota was fixed it was found that the
total would not aggregate the county
quota; the oversubscription therefore
being necessary. Sincerely,
HARRY J. KERR,
County Chairman.

gagged in Il campaign Of wiful misrepre-
sentation as 20 the conditions OF the

to conceal from the public the failure
of the department are contained in the
report Of "A special committee of the

Society Building last night.
According to this report, not only
has the Secretary of War been guilty
of making statements calculated to give
other than an accurate impression of
existing conditions. but he ig charged
I'm specific instances of making direct
and wlful misstatements Of fact
The charge is further made that to
date the Liberty motor is not COM
pleted, that q large number Of the ac-
cidents on Texas hying fields are avoid
able and due to bad management, faulty
machines and poor inspection, and thar
there is a fair chance that when Amer
