FRIDAY, JUNE 28, 1918
! AS
, National War Savings Pay
j ★ ir ★
GOVERNORS AND MAYORS MAKE SIMILAR PROCLAMATIONS
^ ^ ^ -j
MEETINGS WILL BE HELD IN EVERY COMMUNITY TO SECURE f
' SUBSCRIPTIONS FOR WAR SAVINGS'STAMPS
j Pursuant to the proclamations of the President of the United
States and the Governor of this State, I, War Savings Director for
i Arkansas, acting under the authority of the United States Treasury
t Department, have called all tax-payers and wage-earners to meet on ;
I Friday, June 28, to give their subscriptions for War Savings Stamps.
In rural communities and the smaller towns and cities, meetings will
be held in the school houses at 2 p. m.
The school officers will conduct the meeting in each school house,
keeping a record of the proceedings and reporting the names of all
persons present and the amount of War Savings Stamps subscribed for
by them. The names of absent persons, and of those who refuse or
neglect to subscribe, with their reason for so doing, will also be re- j
ported.
War Savings Stamps (which are United States Government Bond3
the same as Liberty Bonds) can be paid for during any month in the
I year 1918, but it is intended that subscriptions will be signed for them
on June 28.
The price cf each W*ar Savings Stamp depends upon the month
during which it is bought. During June each Stamp will cost $4.17.
In July each Stamp will cost $4.18, and so on, one cent more each
month during 1918. On January 1, 1923, the Government of the
United States will redeem all War Savings Stamps at $5.00 each, no
matter during which month in 1918 they were bought. They cost '
less during the early months in 1918 than during the later months
because the person who buys earlier has loaned his money to the
Government for a longer time than if he should buy later.
By way of illustration, note the following table:
COST OF WAR SAVINGS STAMPS DURING JUNE, JULY
AND ATTCTTST 191S.
Cortin Cost in Cost in And Are Worth
June July August on Jan. 1, 1923
1 Stamp.... $ 4.17 $ 4.18 $ 4.19 $ 5.00
20 Stamps..... 83.40 83.60 83.80 100.00
50 Stamps._ 208.50 209.00 209.50 250.00
100 Stamps.. 417.00 418.00 419.00 500.00
200 Stamps.. 834.00 836.00 838.00 1,000.00
The law provides that no person can hold in his own name War
Savings Stamps exceeding $1,000 maturity value. War Savings
Stamps, however, may be purchased for other members of the family,
including minor children.
The money invested in War Savings Stamps is not a gift, or a
donation, but is a loan to the Government. It will all be paid back
with 4% compound interest. If, because of some serious financial
reverses, or calamity, it should be necessary to get your money before
January 1, 1923, you may do so by giving ten days’ notice to any
Money Order postmaster, in which case you can get what you paid
for the stamps, with interest to date of payment. The Stamps are
free from all State and local taxes; when registered at the postoffice
they are insured against loss; they are backed by all the property in
the United States; they cannot fall in value below the price you pay ;
they are as convenient and as well paying an investment as has ever
been offered by our Government.
; A definite quota of War Savings Stamps has been assigned each
school district and community, which will be announced at each meet
\ ing on June 28. The Government of the United States expects all
the citizens of every school district and county to subscribe for its
I quota and to pledge themselves to save and economize to help win
, the war.
It is to be hoped that the subscriptions taken at the meetings in
your county will show you and your neighbors to be loyal Americans
to whom our Government, in this hour of need, does not call in vain.
I [Signed] MOORHEAD WRIGHT,
Arkansas War Savings Director appointed and acting under the
authority of the Secretary of the United States Treasury.
