The Inauguration of a camp

or OF the Ninth District Ferera.
Reserve Bank.
Last year the people of this
district bought $53, O00,OOO wOr-
tn of stamps. So far in 1919, the
sales have amounted to only$2-
$4,000. This is considered a
very poor showing in view of
the fact that the Government
needs the money and is depend
ing upon a very much larger
sum from this source of rev.
enue. With the Liberty Loans
out of the way, those in charge
OF the War Savings work believe
that the sales can be rapidly in
creased and are working out
plans lor a comprehensive cam
aign to Dr1ng about this result.

Government expects each COM
munity and individual to do bis |
full share in spending wisely, |
saving carefully and investing |
in Government Savings Stamps.
The campaign sc IA. this year
has been conducted on the bas-
is of thrift education first and
sales second. Neither the Treas
sury Department nor the Ninth
District Organization have
changed their minds in regard
% the vital Importance of teach
ng our people the value of thrift
habits, but Treasury officials in
sist, and rightly SO, that the
proof of progress in the thrift l.
educational campaign is the sale
Of War Savings Stamps. For
his reason the War Savings Or I
sanization all over the United I
States is going to make an eff
'ort to. increase sales, and since I
he Ninth District is not in the L
habit of tagging behind the rest {
