over-subscribed by two and
half times the quota Of $34,545.45
set for Kennewick, the total OF

put us over the top for our quo

Saturday, December and avail
able for the paper next week."
In an effort to make Washing
ton "first in the nation" the state

sales up to the end of December
will be credited to the present

outlets are in high gear to make
Washington first in the nation in
per capita sale Of e Bonds and

our last concerted bond selling
campaign, because there is so
much more that can be done and
because I feel every Washington
state citizen wants to 20 all out
and complete this bond selling
job in a blaze Of glory, ! am ask
ing that every individual and
every organization continue CIV

the strong spirit and determine
