Mahwah reached the 99% point in its Seventh War Loan Drive quota. Mahwah Township Chairman Havilah M. Smith thanked drive Treasurer Harry S. Ripley and Assistant Treasurer C. Barnwell Straut who had been spending two nights each week checking sales and making up reports. The drive had reached $64,425 out of a goal of $65,000. Fardale chairman Alfred Heflin said that he was sure that his area could come up with $75. If all the divisions did as well the quote could be met. (Bristow)
