BOND PLANE
TO Be NAMED
FOR COUNTY
Valley Makes 1877 Percent of
Assigned Quota During
July Sales Period.
Among Four in State Earning
Highest Figures, Says
BARLEY.

AS one Of the four highest coun-
ties in Montana in July wa bend
sales, Valley will have a bomber
named for it in the Bombing
Tokyo" campaign carried on during
the month, j. P. Sternhagen, vice
chairman of the county war saw
ings staff has been informed by
william H. BARLEY of Great Falls,
administrator for Montana.
The county had a July quota of
$45, 600 in the campaign and its
July sales totaled $75,009, or 167
percent of its quota.
Jefferson, Wheatland, Valley
and Beaverhead had the highest
percentages above their quotas and
the bcmbers will be named after
them" Mr.. BARLEY stated. Valleys
August quota is $780, 400.
Montana failed to make its quota
for the month, $3,222,000 by five
per cent, but "it was not deemed
advisable to include additional last
day sales reported. Had this been
done the quota would have been
reached 'unofficially' and many
more counties would have exceeded
their quotas" Mr.. BARLEY adds.
TITS not the days behind us that
count, but it's tomorrow, the next
day, the weeks, months and years
ahead" he concluded. Every
county chairman every committee
man, every banker every pest
master, every Montanan every EN-
