Ell k%e E5@ ~ &S8 d &&
Total Of $412,631 Is Re
ported Today-County
Quota 100000

Cass county is "over the top" and
then some in the War Savings
stamp campaign.
Reports received by A. w. Cupler,
Fargo, county director, show a total
of S412,631 today. exceeding the
county quota by $6,631.
Seven districts are not yet re-
ported, indicating an oversubscrip-
tfon in the county of more than
$4,000, and possibly $4,000.
ITO say that l am pleased with
the result of the drive would be
putting it mildly" Mr.. Cupler said
this afternoon. "The splendid en-
thusiasn of the workers is a big
factor in the success Of the cam
patgn and is deserving Of honorable
mention"
The campaign in the county is
nearing the close, Mr.. Cupier said.
and indications are that the work

=. Fargo One Third Over.
Audited totals in Fargo's drive for
S460, 900 shows that the city has
raised approximately one-third Of
its apportionment.
But one team Of ten, however, has
made a complete report. and but
four teams have made partial re-
ports. which indicates that the ap-
portionment is at least two thirds
subscribed.
The house toulouse canvass is
going slowly, A. W. McNair, city
director, said this afternoon, and it
will be the end Of the week before
the work is reported.

(By Assoclased Presa.9

Washington, July 2.--While three
cabinet officers were before the house
commerce committee today advocat-
ing the Aswell resolution, empower
ing the President to take over the
telegraph. telephone, cable and radio
systems, the house took jurisdictiofl
over the measure from that commit
tee and vested it in the military
committee.
There was no discussion and only
a viva vote, when Representative
Gordon Of Ohio moved that jurisdtc-
ton be transferred because the
measure was urged as military
necessity.
Members Of the military committee
said later they were, not opposed to
the resolution and probably would
report It favoPabiy.
Secretaries Baker and Daniels and
Postmaster General Burlegon ap-
peared before the house interstate
