WSCO TAKES BIG JUMP
?
Portland Is Exceeded in Volume
; of Sales for First Time Dur
; ing Campaign by Up-State.
A new Star Spanjled Banner floats
:, today from the staff atop the Park
oe school building.
J Because Parkrose school. 111 strong,
was the first In the state to go over
the- $20 per capital quota In sale and
' purchase of Thrift Stamps and War
Savings Stamps.
. -The new flag was awarded for service
rendered Uncle Sam. by State Director
- C 8. Jackson, .and official presentation
was made Wednesday afternoon at a
. patriotic service at the school. Judge
: George W. Stapleton made the formal
presentation in a forceful address to
the pupils. Response was made on be
half of the school by John Biackwell,
pupil. Judge Stapleton was Introduced
. t A. F. Orubbs. principal of the
.' school. The children sang patriotic
songs and saluted as the flag was raised
to the top of the staff. They cheered
and hollered fit to give the kaiser a
.. shiver.
Caaras Well Under Way
' The state-wide house to house War
Stamp canvass Is well under way with
two more full day to go. Workers are
finding some misunderstanding of the
- lull meaning of the campaign and are
explaining; the undertaking to those who
- are not familiar with it. There Is still
some belief, too, that the Liberty loan
. and War Stamps campaigns conflict,
though the government has fully set
forth that the two not only do not con-
. filet, but that they are cooperative. The
government advises strictly against
.' selling War Savings Sta-nps to buy Llb-
rty bonds and vice versa. Buy both.
The security behind one Is just the same
as the security behind the other, and
both are official war fund raising mea
sures. Wasco county on Tuesday in the sales
.of War Savings Stamps distanced all
counties of Oregon, Including Multnomah
county, according to the figures com.
, piled by State Distributor Jesse A. Cur-
fey from the reports received from the
-. postof flees and federal reserve banks.
Portland Is Listed

that any county has exceeded the sales
y Of Portland. Wasco county yesterday

"Worth of stamps, while Portland , and
Multnomah county sold $6,714.03 and
the big sale In Wasco county placed It
In third place In total sales of all coun-
- tie In the state outside of Multnomah.
, Douglas county also had a big day yes-
.- terday with total sales of $4491.23, and
Coos county was next with sales of
$3039.40. The race between Clackamas
, and Llnn count Is very close, the two
- now being separated by less than $8000
In total sales, while the contest between
- Coos, Douglas, Umatilla, Union and
Washington Is quite exciting, the sales
for these being as follows at the close of
business on Monday night : Coos, 147,-
75.78; Douglas, $42,071.09; Umatilla.
$46,447.49 ; Union, $51,060.34 and Wash
ington. $48,739.22. The total sales In
Multnomah county are now $657,667.08 or
more than $2 per capita, which Is above
- the average for the rest of the country.
The 'total sales In Oregon for the day
