here from Alamo ana from every neigh
borhood that is contiguous TO Alamo
that is strictly Alamo territory. Alamo
may be one OF the smaller communities

This was demonstrated by the fact tha;
several times Alamo's population was
present at the meeting toright. Also, to-
nights crowd tells why Aalmo was the
first to wind up its quotas in former
drives, and it also gives plenty of reason
for believing that Alamo. since it was the

goal in the present effort
II am pleased, | am delighted" de-
clared Mr.. O'Brien after the meeting.
