TO CASH
BONUS NOW
ON WANE

The nationwide rush for re-
demption of soldiers bonus bonds
has definitely subsidized. Treasury
surveys disclosed today that 81
per cent of all veterans are not
submitting bonds for cash pay
ment.
Studies of redemptions for the
week ending September 5 show
that SO per cent of the veterans
have cashed their bonds but that
81 per cent are holding them.
Approximately the same percent
ages existed August 30.
AS 3,518,19 veterans are en-
titled to bonds and 3,368,847 have
received them, it is estimated
there are only 149,344 veterans yet
to be given securities. Because of
errors IN applications by veterans,
the Veterans Bureau reports it is
difficult to estimate the number
OF veterans who have not applied.
Bonds issued to veterans totaled
35,210,458 as of September S and
had a cash value of 81 ,760,522, 900.

Utilities Fighting
For Legal Rights
On Two Fronts

WASHINGTON. April 81. CUP
Public utility interests engaged the
government on two fronts Mon
dav in legal campaign to pre-
vent the New Deal from spending
5000, 100000 to finance municipal
power plants in 80 cities and
towns.
First, four firms sought perma-
nent District of Columbia supreme
court injunctions against 10 prof.
ects in Alabama, Texas, Oklahoma
and Vermont. They charged UNI
constitutionality, unfarness and
misuse of taxpayers money.
Second, the Duke Power COM
pany prepared to press its U. 5.
supreme court appeal from an adj
ministration victory in its plan to
reduce power rates. The New
Deal victory was in a Greenwood,
S. c., case, the only one that has
gone to trial so far.
The governments whole non
federal power program - allocat-
ing $20O,OOO,000 for publicly
owned power plants in an attempt
to lower private utility rates
throughout the country-was at
stake.

gin at seven o'clock with the eats
and "gobs" of fun and songs. Fol

teur contests will be held. At the
close, the pastor, Rev. B. +. Wall,
will make the address to the
young people.
The committees ask three
things: That all young people
