FEDERAL RESERVE BANK OF DALLAS
FISCAL AGENT OF THE UNITED STATES

Dallas, Texas, May 11,1942

To Qualified Agents for the Issuance of
War Savings Bonds, Series E :
On May 1 the Treasury Department inaugurated a War Savings Bond
Quota Campaign with a billion dollars a month by July as its objective.
The Secretary of the Treasury is desirous of obtaining the amount of
bond sales as quickly as possible and with a minimum of report prepara­
tion. He has proposed that State Administrators of the War Savings Staff,
or their representatives, call upon issuing agents on the eighth, fifteenth,
twenty-third and last day of each month for the total sales of Series E
bonds for the quarter-monthly period. The information will serve as a guide
to assist the field organizations in determining progress toward quotas dur­
ing the course of each month.
It will be appreciated greatly if you will anticipate these requests by
your State Administrator and if you will give him your full cooperation in
furnishing sales totals (at issue price).
Yours very truly,
R. R. GILBERT
President
