The II families aided included
persons in some serious condition
which precluded all possibility of
taking advantage of offered EN-
ployment
Farm workers now seeking aid
must first apply at the Coolidge
Office of U. S. Employment service
for work and only as a last resort
are food stamps issued.
Speaking of general farm labor
and farm aid conditions yesterday
Bebb said:
From all indication transporta-
tion and housing seem to be the
primary factors in solving the prob
lem of picking cotton this fall in
this valley. Concerning transporta-
tion the Farm Security Admins
tration has been working with the
Office of Defense Transportation
making surveys and plans for tran
sporting farm workers. Prelimin.
airy reports show need for about
100 busses capable of transporting
more than $4,000 workers at the
peak of the season in October.
After all, Arizona and Califor-
MIA agriculture does depend upon
mobile farm labor supply. The
plan under consideration at the
present time is to transport farm
workers from one area to the other
rs the season closes in one and
opens in the other, thus alleviating
stagnation of workers IN an area
where the season Ia finished and
causing serious shortage in areas
that are beginning to harves crops.

ARIZONA BOND
SALESLEADER
'LAUDS EDITION

Mr.. Harold Wrenn, Publisher,
Coolidge Examiner,
Coolidge, Arizona.
Dear Mr.. Wrenn:
am informed you will publish
a special edition OF your news
paper on July "a, the purpose of
which will be to stimulate the
sales of War Stamps and Bonds in
Pinal county. This, | think, is a
recognition OF the necessity of ac-
quainting the people generally
with the Importance of purchasing
these government securities; and,
as the issue of your publication
will go into every home within its
field, it will be effective in quick
ening interest in bond sales.
The tremendous costs of prose
cutting the war cannot be borne by
taxation. Bonds must be sold if
the forces of democracy are main
tanned and victory achieved Ariz-
ona failed to subscribe to it's June
quota, and whenever there is such
shortcoming the fighting power
of the United Nations is weakened.
Troops cannot withstand the
enemy unless We supply them with
food and implements; the war can
be lost by slackening in bond buy
ing at home quicker than on the
flaming battle fronts.
| am glad to see that you have
sensed this situation and are do
ing your utmost, through the
agency of publicity you direct, to
help in girding America for SUI
preme efforts wherever her soldier
sons are placed.
With personal regards, | am
Sincerely yours,
w. P. STUART,
State Administrator.

MAGMA COPPER COMPANY MAKES
REMARKABLE RECORD AS EVERY
NINE EkAPL L0YEE NOW BUYS BONDS

What il believed to be the mos
remarkable record of any large
firm employing 1000 or more EN-
pIoyees is that OF Magma Copper
Company Of Superior where the
more than 100 employees have
signed up 100 per cent for the
monthly purchase of War Bonds
and Stamps.
While the amount OF monthly
bond purchases in some instances
is not greater than five per cent OF
the individuals monthly check the
average OF all employees is S.77
per cent and Frank Sarver. Magma
purchasing agent and district
chairman of war bond and stamp
sales. believes that by the middle
of August no employee of this
great copper mine will be pur-
chasing less than 10 per cent OF
his salaryain bonds or stamps each
month.
Bond and stamp sale deductions
rom the payroll of the Magma
Copper Company for July alone
amounted to S17 900 and many EN-
ployees were reported TO have
placed additional savings in these
government securities.

of 90 per cent of employees pur-

Secret OF this remarkable rec
ord. according to Frank Sarver,
lies in the fact that when putting
on their drive he and his
assistants explain the advant-
ages OF owning United States
securities and not simply relying
on purchases as a patriotic duty

chase OF war bonds and stamps Is
not only a patriotic duty but the

which pay a high rate of interest
and are a sound investment
