San Francisco, May 25.-Before the
close of the next few days the Liberty
Loan distribution committee will have
reached between $4,000 and 100000
depositors in the banks of California,
with the call for subscriptions to the
Liberty Loan of the United States
government. This will have been eff
iected by means of an organization
of volunteers from every bond house
in San Francisco, who have enlisted
to carry to victory this important ele-
ment of the great war. The purpose
of this campaign as outlined by the
committee is to bring to the personal
ttention of the people, and particu-
lariy the bank patrons, the imperative
importance of the financial ascepct of

a series of card bulletins which will
supply to the committee and to all
Of the banks the information as to
whether or not any of the half-million
CT more correspondents have entered
the lists for the subscription to ST.
OO0,000,000 Liberty Loan.
On top of this, and as rapidly as
the replies are received and indexed
ty a large staff of clerks at head
quarters, a large number of bond
men will go into the field to make an
individual canvass of those who shall
tave been reported as still not among

selected for their special fitness to
present the case of the United States
government to the loyal citizens of
California.
The slogan is: "Have you subscribed
for the Liberty Loan?"
This is one of the big moves of the
distribution committee. 1t is intended
TO bring to the immediate attentino of
