including the banks. by federal reserve
banks at the time Secretary McAdoo
made his announcement
San Francisco. on the face of returns, Is
tagging furthest behind the mark set for
her with but little more than 20 per cent
OF the total Of her maximum allotments.
st. Louis comes next, with but 81 per cent
of her allotment. and Atlanta third, with
little less than 80 per cent of her maxi
mum allotments
1T is thought timely" saws a state
ment by Assistant Secretary Crosby.
ito give the above figures so that each
district should know the measure of
effort that must be made in the re-
naming days of the campaign to se-
cure success 1t is evident that the
very large individual and collective
subscriptions that have been published
from time to time have created an i'm
preston in the minds of many that the
desired results can be attained without
the full cooperation of small subscrfb-
ers.
Such is not the case Two billion
dollars is SO gigantic an amount that
the largest possible Individual SUBJ
scriptions are required. and at the same
time multitudes of small contributors
must fully cooperate. 1t is impossi-
BILE to determine the places where spc-
cial efforts remain to De made unless
applications are promptly signed up
and handed in to the federal reserve
banks. The banks and trust companies
that are giving their assistance in col
lecting subscriptions are strongly urged
to send them in Immediately and TO add
daily whatever they receive by way of
further subscriptions.
Recognizing the magnificent work
of thousands of agencies row patriot
ically engaged in the campaign; 1t re-
mains only to urge all efforts to be
continued and even increased in order
that the goal may be reached"
