Treasury Depart ment indicate that Orego nians purchased $3,722,880 worth of Savings Bonds in the month of August. Although some what lower than a year ago, in comparing August 1973 sales with last year’s, the figures reveal that 1972 was one of the best August sales months achie ved in many years. Although Oregon's E-Bond sales of $3,575,880 were slightly lower than last year’s they are considerably higher than the previous year's. We attribute the increased sales of E-Bonds to the large num ber of companies that have in creased their payroll partici pation among employees. Ore gon has reached 71% of its 1973 goal, 13 of the counties have exceeded that percentage. Nationally, Savings Bonds sales were the best for August since 1952. E-Bond sales of $545 million set a 28-year re cord for the month, H-Bond sales were $22 million. August sales of E and H-Bonds totaled $567 million--$80 million more than July. Exchanges of Series E-Bonds and Freedom Shares for H-Bonds totaled $28 million for the month, $1 million more than July. Sales exceeded redemptions, at cost price, for the 35th con secutive month. E and H-Bond holdings rose to $59.76 billion in August.
