DEMAND NATION
MEET NEW LOAN
HARDNESS IN RESPONSE BE-
COME CAUSE OF DEEP CON-
Germ TO LEADERS.
FAST DRIVE FROM NOW ON
Whole Administration Will Partici-
pate to Bring Needed Money
Is Time For Action
Stor Workers.

Washington.-The hardness of the
country in responding to the second
Liberty loan is causing deep concern
to officials here. President Wilson
and his cabinet are watching the
campaign with great interest. With
half of the campaign gone, treasury
officials estimated tonight that not
more than $6OO,0O0,00O had been sub
scribed, and they considered this
estimate liberal. 1t has become APP
parent to officials that a new and
tremendous impetus must be given to
the campaign if the subscription is
to approximate the $5,0O0,000,00O
hoped for.
The whole weight of the admin
tsration is to be thrown into the
balance for the rest Of the campaign,
and a drive of dimensions unap-
preached heretofore is to be made
during the two weeks that remain be-
fore the closing of the subscription
books.
A new factor, calculated to hearten
workers and to galvanize the country
into realization that the most
strenuous efforts must be made if the
big drive is to be contaminated sue
cessfully will be introduced into the
campaign, probably within "a hours.
Notwithstanding the splendid recep-
tions given Secretary McAdoo in the
west, the efforts of thousands of
workers and the most highly organ
lied publicity campaign ever known
in the country, the daily average of
subscriptions has fallen far below
what officials had hoped for.
Problem to the People.
The time has come, officials feel,
when the people of the country must
be made to realize, in a manner that
leaves no doubt, that they must sub
scribe without further delay to the
full limit of their means.
From President Wilson down Off
, Gals are understood to be united in
this belief. The campaign must be
given new impetus at once, it is felt,
and steps to give the impetus will be
taken without delay
The $6OO,OOO,00O estimate of the
treasury takes into consideration all
the Optimistic unofficial" estimates
from the reserve districts, and that
sum is only IL per cent of the $5,-
000,000,000 desired.
This would leave $4,000 900, 900 to
be raised within the next IL working
days, an average of 1857, 90, 900 a day,
if the $5,0OO,00O,OO0 goal is to be at
tanned, and $4,000, 100000, an average
of $200,000,000 a day, if only the mini.
mum of $4,000. 100000 is subscribed.
Campaign Half Over.
Neither the average daily mini.
mum nor maximum quotas for the
second Liberty bond sale set at the
beginning Of the campaign by Sec
rotary McAdoo,' the treasury an
nouncement reads, had been attained
tonight when the first half of the
great drive came to a close.''
Unofficial estimates from five oil
the IL reserve banks showed a totaI
of $523,0O0,000 subscribed.
