Eastern district of Pennsylvania is jc.
less per capita than the entire country.
From the above report you will notice
that it is imperative upon the people of
Centre county to do their utmost, dur.
ing the SPECIAL DRIVE beginning
August 26th, If the people of the
county will carry out instructions given
instant,
I believe a per capita of $5.00 can be ob-
tained for the county during the week
of the 26th.
A telegram received at this office on
August 23rd from William West, acting
State director,
in letter under date of tae 13th
is as follows
** From reports just received, it is
with great regret that I have to ad-
vise you that the country has passed,
for the first time, the Eastern district
of Pennsylvania in per capita sales
of war savings stamps. The country
leads by 7¢. Let us all strive to over.
come this at once. It can be done.
Suggest a special drive on limit
buyers, or any other drive that you
think will help put us ahead of the
country. I am confident you will
keep Eastern Pennsylvania in her old
place. ”
The Eastern district of Pennsylvania
is no different than is Centre county.
Certain ‘sections of our county have
‘* gone over the top” while in other
sections of the county I do not think the
per capita sales will aggregate over
$1.00, and it is those districts in our
county that are holding our per capita
down to the very lowest point every
week.
Let EACH of us do our ‘patriotic
duty, and sell W. S, S. during the pres-
ent week worth while, for by so doing
we will not only materially increase our
per capita, but it will have a material
effect upon the per capita of the Eastern
district of Pennsylvania, and will be in
full compliance with the suggestions
made by Mr. West in the above
telegram,
Very truly yours,
W. Harrison Warker,
Chairman War Savings Committee
for Centre County.
