/ fore the close of the war savings
stamps selling contest, every letter
! carrier today Is exerting himself to
the utmost TO make a showing that
will entitle him to one of the twenty
one prizes that have been offered. No
possible buyer is being overlooked, for
city and suburbs has been carefully
conbed. The several rural routes
running from District OF Columbia
stations also have been thoroughly
canvassed.
Yesterdays sales were the highest
TO date, amounting to S10,s75, making
the total for the nine days about
S62.1T5. That at least $780, 900 Y ill be
added to these figures as a result Of
the final days sales is the confident
prediction Of the officials who have
the contest in charge.
While substantial increases were
recorded yesterday. the leaders in
each OF the three sections remain IN
changed. A sharp battle was wagsd
between Carriers Tiffany and Spiker
in the downtown section. Late in the
afternoon Tiffany turned in cash that
enabled him to maintain his position
with practically the same margin of
difference over Spiker, his nearest
competitor, as for the day preceding.
A veteran contestant, Spiker has
never failed to spring a surprise at
| the last moment
There were but few changes in the
standing of the other contestants in
this section, although most of thera
| recorded healthy gains. The sensa-
ton of the day was the appearance
of Howard Douglas, who had not
previously been a figure in the con-
test. among the leaders His sales
for the day were about $1,000.
In section >, J. K. L. Main widened
the breach separating him from his
nearest competitor. while Winston
ousted Mayer from second place. In
section 5, A. J. Baker, 1.-The Chevy
| Chase sensation" as he has been
dubbed because of his showing in
the contest, maintained the same av-
erage distance between himself and
Carrier Burga as on the day previous.
I Cole displaced Turner in the third
position.
I One of the most amusing incidents
/ of the day was the report by Carrier
, Clark. of the downtown men, that he
! had been promised a $500 sale by one
