PAGE rOURTEBJT HERALD 'AND NEWS. KUAMATH FALLS, OREGON mi? tt, 1943 PAYROLL PLAN TS TPACE IN THIS MA Payroll deductions, sure-fire automatic and the most painless method of buying war savings bonds, have taken, hold in the Klamath country, until today they account for a large part of the bond buying in this neck of the woods. J. Verne Owens, chairman of the payroll deduction end of the war savings program, Is frankly pleased at the Klamath record This county headed most of the rest of the state on payroll deductions at the start of the war savings program they were called defense bonds then and it is now going to town on the voluntary 10 per cent cam- paign. Early Start Both the big mills and the small firms got into the payroll deduction business early, Owens said today. Managements, work ers organizations and Individ' uals got into the swim, and buy ing In this method, at least on small scale, began in almost every firm in the county employ ing six or more. witn this good start, it was easy to build up to the 10 per cent when treasury officials called for that program.' Now, more than 60 firms are on the 10 per cent honor roll and nun- dreds of citizens in these parts are sporting the colorful 10 per cent lapel buttons. The firms got on this honor roll because the payroll deduc tions total 10 per cent or more of the total payrolls. This doesn't necessarily mean that every em ploye is participating. But many of the firms and or ganizations on the honor roll are participating 100 per cent, ac cording to Owens. Some special recognition is planned for the 100 per cent-10 per cent group. Owens added that in all firms on the honor roll, which is pub lished almost daily in the papers, the participation is 90 per cent or over. The committee chairman esti mates that payroll deductions are now made in more than 90 per cent of the organizations in tlje county employing six per sons or more. Outstanding An outstanding example in the 10 per cent class is the Di Gior gio Fruit company, whose 182 members are buying bonds on a 10 per cent basis. This is the largest single group of employes buying at that speed. The payroll deduction plan has been widely adopted outside of Klamath Falls as well as in the county seat, according to Owens. It is in force at Merrill, Malin, Chiloquin, Bly, Sprague River and other places as well as at Tulelake and Dorris outside the county. Owens today paid a warm tri bute to the local life insurance underwriters for the help they gave in giving the payroll de duction plan its first Dush. At U. S.
