USE INDIVIDUAL APPORT|ONMENTS
IN VICTORY LOAN DRIVE

Individual apportionments will be
used in the forthcoming Victory Loan
lcampaign as in the Fourth Liberty
bond drive, it was agreed by coun-
ty chairmen of the liberty loan COM
mittee who met at Boise Saturday
for conference with the state chair
imam.
A volunteer day will be designated
land efforts will be made to put the
lstate. over the top in few hours.
The county chairmen have compil-
ed lists of individuals in their coun-
ties and they will mail letters to eve
ry individual containing figures
showing quotas fixed by a committee
(which the recipient is expected to
pay.
Considerable enthusiasm was devel-
oped among the chairman during the
course of the meeting and all went
away confident that the state would
raise its quotas.
1t was expected that much debat-
ing would result over county appor-
tionments. but early in the day it was
agreed to leave them in the hands
of the state committee. Until the
federal government announces the
sum of money to be raised in April
the appointments cannot be fixed,
but the basis from which the commit
tee will work will be the same this
spring as last autumn.
The chairmen heard talks by State
Chairman Monte b. Gwinn, DR. E. A.
Bryan, Rev. Wilsie Martin and Sen
ator John F. Nugent. They were
guests at the noon hour at luncheon
rendered them by the state commit
tee at the Owyhee hotel. There they
heard Gov. d. W. Davis and three
former soldiers.
The following resolutions were
passed:
