PAGE TEN MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON, WEDNESDAY, JULY 8, 1942. WILL EAT TURKEY June Total Wins Contest With Multnomah County $321,000 Total. Iff "eat turkey" for the Jack son county war bond sales com mittee as a result of winning the June contest in sale of war bonds and stamps from Mult nomah county. W. A. Gates, county bond chairman, said to day that congratulations had been received from Multnomah county conceding the June sales contest to determine the county showing the greatest percentage of increase in June sales over May sales. Gates said today that the turkey dinner will be held some time in the near future when Larry Hilare, Multnomah coun ty bond chairman, Ray Conway, state chairman of bond sales and Allan Rinehart, deputy ad ministrator, can be in Medford. Under the agreement, it was explained, the losers were to eat crow. Gates explained that Jackson county's increase for June over May was 16S per cent. A total of $321,000 in war bonds and stamps, was sold in the county during June with several series of bonds yet unreported from the Federal Reserve bank. The sale of bonds for the first week in July would indicate that the residents of Jackson county are not letting down in their patriotic efforts. Gates re ported. "With bad news coming from the battlefronts we must make a great effort to win the war and that can be done by larger purchase of war bonds and stamps."

(Passed by U. S. Censor.) FOREST CLOSURE EFFECTIVE TODAY (A detailed legal description of forest land closures and rules pertaining thereto appears on page 9 of this edition).
