kidneys,

first over the top without question.
The amount OF the Fourth Liber-
ty bond issue has not been definitely
announced. The opinion In general.
however, that the amount will be not
less that $4,000. .000.O On this
basis. the quota for Josephine coun-
ty will be approximately $2I3,000.
IL the issue should be $4,000. 000,-
900, which Is possible, our quota
would be approximately s275.000. In
either event, It will require a thor
ough campaign to raise this county's
quota. Our quota for the third issue
was s1O7.50O. and we reported In
actual subscriptions, In excess OF
$135,000. which did not include
number OF subscriptions received af-
ter the campaign closed. I believe
this county will be able to reach It's
quota within the required time.
I'VE will organize assistant dis
trict managers In the various parts
OF the county, who will be respon-
sible for the quotas apportioned to
each district. In this way we expect
to reach every person in the county
who may be financially able to pur-
chase bond. This will be necessary
lor the county will not reach It's
quota.
During the last campaign, the
slackers had little attention. This
time, we will have different plans.
Slackers will be shown no mercy and
persons who are able to purchase a
reasonable amount OF bonds and only
subscribe for q $50 bond for the
purpose of evasion, will be consider
ed accordingly. During the last
campaign we had large number OF
applicants for $50 bonds who should
have subscribed for at least $500 or
$1,000. We do not intend TO D.
evaded in this manner during the
next campaign. Every person will
be called upon to perform his full
duty.
County managers now have au-
thority to conscript, II necessary, any
person whose services will be requlr.
ed to successfully conduct this cam.
paign. No excuses will be accepted
on account OF business or occupation
This is time when every man must
sacrifice his time and IL he does not
do 1t voluntarily, he will be called
into the service through other chan.
nels having authority to conscrip,
his services.
"a meeting OF the county execu
tive committee will be called thii
week to discuss plans for the cam
palgn within this county. The execu
tive committee appointed by Mr.
Cookingham, consists OF the follow
ing members: Frank G. Bramwell

LOCAL DRAFT BOARDS ORDERED
TO SEAL PAPERS.

The Bourbon County Draft Board
Is in receipt of bulletin from Major
Henry F. Rhodes, of Frankfort, Chief
of the Selective Service Department
for Kentucky. stating that, in view
of the armistice and the consequent
temporary abatement of the imme-
date urgency for Reconsideration,
local Boards should finish the princf-
pal work remaining.
On completion Of the classification,
the bulletin reads, which must not
be later than December 10, they must
be sealed and in fact subject to the
further orders of the Government,
issued through the Provost Marshal
General.
After receipt of this notice, reads
the order, no access shall be given
any person or persons to the records
and no information concerning them
shall be given out except by written
instructions of the Govern ent, issu-
ed through the Office of the Provost
Marshal General.
1t is from these records, say the
instructions, that the history of the
war must in great part be compiled,
and from them also must come in
formation as to the man-power Of the
country in case of any further or
future war. 1t was said yesterday
that the eighteen-year-old youths
have been little bit slow in fling
their questionnaires, and unless they
do so they will be known as delin-
quents, 50 the wise thing to do Is to
go to the Board and get a clean bill.

POSITION.

After he had admitted purchasing
from $1,000 to 81 400 worth of Lib
erty Bonds at from 80 to 81 cents on

action be given widest publicity and
that purchasers be given to under
stand that profiteering in these bonds
