THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1943 No 39 FIGURES ARE GOOD BUT GOAL NOT REACHED IN COUNTY Gaston County Still Has Approximately $500,000 To Raise; Only Three More Days To Go; Keep Buying. __ m All issuing agencies in Cheiuy Ville have turned, in their report on the Third War Loan Drive and a total amount of $339,8(H). 00 has been reported. A total of $45,900.00 was sold in Series E, $72,900.00 in Series (L, $221, 000.00 in Tax Bonds with 2 per cent, 7]8. These figures are good, but Gaston county still has ap proximately $500,000 to raise. (Out of its quota of $5,142,000.) North Carolina still needs more than $20,000,000 of meeting its quota of $145,000,000, and the nation as a whole is still some $700,000,000 short of the goal of 315,000,000,000. In all history, in time of war or peace, when Gaston county has been culled on to do a certain thing either lor its own people or for suffering humanity in some far corner of the world she has never failed to do her part. 7,000 Gaston boys and men are offering their lives, are we doing our part? Lets don’t fail this time. , Buy that extra Bond to day or tomorrow, only two more days, Friday and Saturday, Oc tober 1st and 2nd^ in which to buy that extra bond and make it count on this drive. ITALY HAS SURRENDERED —LET’S ALL HELP FINISH THE JOB. WINSTON-SALEM, N, (., Sept. 27.-“—Sales of all issues of bonds ill the Third War Loan Drive will he continued through Saturday, October 2 and sales of Series E. E. and 0 savings bonds will be conitnued through ^ tuber 16, according to an aii ^ ucement made here today by Ip -enc-e T. Leinbach, state cliair n of the War Finance Commit . ee. "The Treasury Department in Washington has just announced the extensions in order that all selling agents may have addition al time in which to clear their sales," Leinbach stated. There tire over 60,006 issuing agents in the United States, and they have manpower shortages like ev'eryone else. In many cases, sales have not cleared through the Federal Reserve Ranks due to the time required in contact ing the prospects, making the sale, processing the order, and accounting to the Federal Re serve. “After Saturday, October 2, the three marketable securities, the 2 1-2’s the 2's, and the 7 8's, will be withdrawn from stile. Sub scriptions for these issues and for ISeries C savings notes (tax notes) pluced in the mail up to midnight, October 2, will be counted in the campaign totals. “Because of the' great wave of current buying by individuals, sales of Series K, F and (1 sav ings bonds will be continued through October 16. This will enable workers to complete many additional sales and have them reported in time to be counted in the drive quotas.” Leinbach announced - that sales in North Carolina through Satur day, September 25, totaled $110, 000,000 or 80 percent of the .' .aie’s quota of $145,000,000. Vo the People of this Community: PLAIN WARNING TO YOU! Here is a plain warning for you . . . “This war will last until 1949 ot longer if the home front fails to back up our men in battle" I-La i a 3 ■ Frank r* * ^ Knox, Seere |_jit* | [ tary of the Navy. i Buying War Bonds to the point of temporary personal sacrifice is the most di rect way you can comply with Secretary Knox's appeal. "Temporary sacrifice" is the correct phrase because you are only lending your money when you buy War Bonds. This gov ernment which never has de faulted on an obligation will pay you back $4 for every $3 invested if you hold the bonds for 10 years. The least you can do is to back die attack with War Bonds to day. Buy extra Bonds above 1 your normal Bond buying. THE EDITOR \ 2nd. 'Baptist Church Here Pays Off Debt On 3rd.
