IF" .B0ND SALES
WORRY TREASURY

WASHINGTON, June 10 R -
War Bond purchases by individuals
were pushed up to $e.o6s, ono, 600
today in their inflation-battling
drive toward a $1,000, 900, 900 goal
in the Seventh War Loan.
In addition, corporations rolled
their bond investments up to &c.
979, 0OO, 900, little short of the ST.
600, 600, 900 corporation quota. This
brought total sales in both cate
gories to $1,000, 0o0, 900, compared
with the overall quota Of $14, 000,-
600, 900.
But Treasury officials, with a
grim eye on the inflationary cash
still in the pocketbooks of indivi-
dual citizens, were not inclined to
be overjoyed about the rapid pro-
gress toward the overall goal.
Here's why:
Individuals purchases of series
E bonds, considered the most cru
cial bonds in the fight against in
flationary price rises, now are only
50, 723, O00, 900.
That's only SO per cent of the $4,-
600, 0OO, 900 E-bond quota, and the
drive has only nine business days
to 60. It officially ends June &c.
though the accounting period runs
on through July to give last
minute money a chance to reach
the Federal Reserve Banks and be
officially counted.
One big economic aim Of the
Treasury throughout the three-year
war finance program has been to
pay for the war as largely as pos
sible by borrowing from the poe
kets and bank accounts of indivi-
duals. Those are the funds that are
the most dangerous. Foods that can
be bought with such money are
still critically scarce and the more
idle money in existence the more
the threat to all consumers in terms
of rising prices and falling values.
| The Treasury announced today
that yesterday-when nationwide
E-bond sales were 66.8 per cent of
the quota, the states leading the
country in percentage Of E-bond
quota were:
Montana with 96 per cent Of its
$16, 900, 900 quota, and Mississippi
with 81 per cent of its $29, 900, 600
goal.
The Treasury also announced
yesterdays standings among the
IA states with the largest E-bond
quotas, as follows:
Missouri and Wisconsin 68 per
cent; Illinois, Indiana, and Texas
81 per cent; New York and Ohio
IS; Pennsylvania 81; Michigan So;
New Jersey 81; Southern Cali.
fornia 81. California is divided a.
two states in war financing.
