While Mr.. Rea was at the conven-

Carolina had at last passed the $780,
600 mark in weekly sales of War Saw

news. Mr.. Rea found that the War

Southern states, and from the views
and experiences aired at the meet

Commencing May 1, the price of
War Savings Stamps will be $4.1G
each, instead of $4,15, she price dur

cent each succeeding month during

Incomplete Returns Indicate
Shortage of Some $4,000 in
Allotment.
1T MUST YET BE RAISED
Rural Districts in County Have
Not Contributed in Proportion
to Response in Other Cam
paigns.

While the returns to the United
War Work compaign are yet incom-
plete, 1t is regrettable that the quota
allotted Lancaster county, $20,5OO
is still short something like $4,000.
In going over the list Of subscrip-
tions. it appears that the rural dis
tricts have not responded with the
same generosity that they have in
former campaigns. The total amount
of subscriptions reported up to last
night from the rural districts is less
than 500, or around 10 per cent
of the total subscription. Hereto
fore, the rural districts have con
tributed from 25 per cent to 30 per
cent of the county's quota. 1t is
therefore urgently requested that I'll
chairmen throughout the county
make special effort during Satur-
day and Sunday to vigorously solicit
subscriptions to this war fund. 1t is

1t was not an easy task in this
county. The committee. of which
Col. Leroy Springs was chairman
