C. Sammons, State Chairman, pointed out that the Treasury Department main tains a paid staff of only four persons in its Oregon Savings Bonds office. He emphasized the fact that it would be utterly im possible for a staff of this size, regardless of its efficiency or how hard it worked, to exceed the sales of the Liquor Control Com mission or of the several other large Oregon Institutions whose annual sales run beyond $20,000 000. Mr. Sammos expressed the op inion that this tremendous vol ume of Savings Bond purchases by Oregonians is attributable to two things. First, to the fact that this method of saving has become a part of the normal way of life of a great many Oregon people; second, to the fact that a very large number of business firms and private individuals contribut. ed in one way or another to in creasing Oregon's Bond sales vol ume. Many individuals gave sub stantially of their time, hund reds of Oregon firms maintained a Payroll Savings Plan for their personnel, banks continued to handle the sale of roughly 859t of the Bonds purchased within the State without charge, and newspapers, radio stations, com pany publications and other advertising media contributed time and space towards keeping Oregon people aware of the value of consistent thrift. Mr. Sammons took this op portunity to express his thanks, as well as those of the Treasury Department, to the Oregon people and business firms who took part in the Savings Bonds Program,! thus making this success story! possible. I Federal Reserve figures show! lhat Oregonians bought S36.5S4.- i 794 m E Bonds last year, increas- j ing their purchase of these small er Bonds by 2",. A drop in the sale of F and G Bonds, now in an increasingly competitive field was responsible for a drop of 4','t in the State's total sales of E's, F's and G's togeather, when compared j to 1948.
