TRITLE REQUESTS
 GREATER
 FOR WAR STAMPS
State Manager of Baby Bond Sales Visitor in Warren Dis trict; Declares Arizona Is Behind Quota.

Arizona will have subscribed to and purchased a total of approXimately | S5CO.00O in war stamps and bonds be fore March l. Total sales reportei ct the fiIst of this month were slight ly over $250,GO0. This states quota s approximately eleven times what
 will have been purchased by April l, This county is proportionately behind Tn its sales of stamps with every oth' CT county in the state. Only m scat tered and occasional districts are sales uD to the assigned quota. EI- forts to concentrate on the drive for
 aar stamp sales will be redoubled
 over the entire state. These, and other salient facts were disclosed yesterday by Harry E. Tritle, state manager in charge of the sales O. war stamps. who arrived in BisDee rom Phoenix. He was accompanied by J. N. Gaines, county sales manager. of Tombstone.
 "Cochise COunty's quota Of stamps, Ieclared MT. Tritle, is approximately s1.O51, ,OO0 Of this amount the War ren district will be called on to sub scribe to about S600.000. To date the gales have aggregated less than what vas originally expected, and the rate of sales will .have to be doubled if the county fills its entire quota. Efforts
 O secure pledges of men and women
 nd children to buy stamps each week or each payday will be made, and a concentrated campaisn to increase the sales will be inaugurated. We hope 10 build up the sales in this district in the same manner we have sue cecded in stimulating sales in other parts of the state.
 Must Buy Continually.
 Buying war savings stamps today and not buying any tomorrow, buying this week and not buying next week will not meet the needs Of the gov ernH ent which has asked that the ceopie of this country to buy two billion thrift stamps during the pre- gent year. Each community IS ex gee ed to take it's part of these secu- rites and this will not be heavy 5urien if everyone will do their part.
 MT. Tritle says that in some parts 1f the state much interest has been awakened in this matter, but that in -thers it has been hard to impress the necessity for action Cn the people. The present duty, confronting tn, -e pie of the United States, is that of winning the war;" said MT. Tritle,
 and all other things must be forgot ten CT made a second consideration until every aid possible is provided Tor the government required for car wing or the contest"
 Third Liberty Loan.
 Mir. Gaines was asked what he re- garded the outlook for success in this ccunty with the third Liberty loan za'd that he confidently expected to see Cochise county "go over the top" again, as she had with the previous two sales of these bonds. He said that he had been informed that Co., chise county has been divided into two districts now for the sale of the third Liberty bond offering. The northern district O. the county wilt include all territory northe Of Bisbee with esdquarters at Tombstone. The southern district will include Bisbee and Douglas and all the territory south of Bisbee. MT. Gaines will be n charge Of the southern district and will have his headquarters m Bis0ee The third loan will be handled very much as vas the first and seecnd with the exception that the county organ ization will not solicit purchasers among the soldiers. This does not mean that the soldiers will not have on opportunity to secure bonds, but that this feature will be entirely in the hands of the government, through it's agents.
 Mir. Gaines said that while he has teen somewhat disappointed in the volume of sales of war savings stamps in the county up to the present time he felt confident that later it would be shown that Ccchise county will take all of these securities that have been allotted for this territory.
