Workers Buy 2'4SO In Ad-
dition To Their Payroll
Deduction Purchases

The North Carolina Shipbuilding
company and its thousands of en-
ployes purchased War bonds with
a total maturity value of 81, 1885
during the Third War Loan cam
paign which ended recently, Off
Gals of the company announced
Saturday.
The shipyard played a most i'm
portant part in the drive in New
Hanover county, which surpassed
its goal with sales of more than
Sc, 1853, 454, according to the report
made few days ago by the War
Finance committee.
The sale of bonds at the yard
was carried out on three fronts.
First, campaign sales to employees
at special booth and the bond
office amounted to $203,825, ma
turity value; second, regular pay
roll deductions for the purchase of
bonds during the campaign period
totalled $40, $50, maturity value,
and third, the company purchased
S5OO,OOO worth of U. S. Treasury
notes. At the beginning of h
drive, the president Of the COM
pany, Captain Roger Williams, as
signed his total salary from the
company to the purchase of War
bonds for the duration.
During the campaign, 2,169 en-
pIoyes purchased 2,460 bonds in
dependently of the purchases made
through the payroll deduction sys-
tenn. Numerous bonds Of $1,000
denomination were bought by the
shipbuilders and every department
in the yard took part In the drive.
The Welders led the list in total
value of purchases with the in
vestment OF S14, 1862 while the Ma
chine Shop was second with SILL
DAB. From a standpoint Of per
capita investment, t Machine
Shop, which has 245 employees,
the Police and Fire and the Adj
ministrative departments made the
best showing.
Since the early days of the yard,
the employees have often been COM
mended for their bond purchases.
AS they turn hundreds of thousands
of the dollars received for building
ships back to the government to
finance more vessels, they have
won both the Treasury Depart
ment's Minute Man flag and the
''T", signifying that 80 per cent
of the workers are putting at least
ten per cent of their earnings into
bonds.
