DRIVE FOR BOND
BUYING PLEDGES
OPENS TOMORROW
Campaign Will Last Week
Minute Men' Will Visit
Every County Home.
About 1,000 workers, known
as "minute men," will take to
the field tomorrow to visit every
home in Jackson county In the
national defense savings stamp
and bond campaign.
Every person having regu
lar Income will be asked to
sign a pledge to buy a certain
amount of savings stamps or
bonds each week or month.
The pledge Is entirely volun
tary, no selling pressure will
be exerted and each person will
be asked to sign up for only
what he feels he can continue
regularly for duration of the
emergency.
Notation will be made on
each pledge card If bonds and
stamps are already being pur
chased regularly through the
payroll allotment plan or news
paper carriers.
The campaign will last a
week. It is a test campaign In
Oregon that the treasury depart
ment Is watching with Interest
and so the state committee Is
anxious to keep Oregon as a
model of patriotism.
"This is a patriotic endeavor
In which we are all striving for
the same end victory for de
mocracy, said Moore Hamilton,
chairman of the pledge cam
paign. "One way we all can
help Is to invest In savings
stamps and bonds to help pay
the cost of war and at the same
time practice thrift and estab
lish an interest-bearing nestegg
that will come in mighty useful
after the war.
"It should be borne In mind
that this pledge campaign Is
entirely voluntary and that the
canvassers are merely trying to
help In the defense effort. For
that reason we feel certain that
every family called upon will
give the canvassers a cordial
welcome and an opportunity to
explain the. pledge system. We
ask the sympathetic cooperation
of everyone."
Mr. Hamilton pointed out that
the pledge books are the prop
erty of the U. S. treasury de
partment and their contents are
confidential, canvassers being
Instructed explicitly not to show
them to anyone but authorized
persons.

WILLKIE REFUSES
UMPIRE POST SO
Washington, Jan. 19. (AP)
Friends of Wendell L. Willkie
said today the 1941 Republican
presidential nominee apparently
had decided to decline official
position with the government be
cause he wished to preserve his
private capacity as a citizen and
be free to utter constructive criti
cism of the administration's war
effort.
Willkie already has rejected an
offer of appointment as one of a
panel of arbiters to aid the new
war labor board in its efforts to
settle industrial disputes.
President Roosevelt disclosed
plans last week for the forma
tion of such a panel, mentioning
James A. Farley, Alfred E. Smith
and Charles Evans Hughes, the
retired chief Justice, as possible
members.
Willkie also was counted upon
to become one of this group, but
left a conference with the presi
dent last week without commit
ting himself. He since notified
Mr. Roosevelt that he did not de
sire to serve in such capacity.
Willkie was reported to have
been influenced in his decision
by the possibility that if he be
came directly associated with the
government, he would not be at
liberty to speak his mind about
things that might go wrong In
the war production effort.
