 Actual Figures.
 Treasury officials made public the actual subscription figures tonight The total is s325.465.OOO. This figure includes every dollar reported to the reserve banks from every section of the United States. In one reserve dis | trict, however, Minneapolis, no figures were reported.
 Hard Work Needed.
 "The subscriptions indicate the ne cessity for the hardest kind of work on the part of the whole country for the balance of the campaign" reads the treasury departments announce mem. "The campaign is more than one-third gone. Fourteen working days remain.
 Subscriptions by federal reserve districts were as follows: Boston, S41, ,SOO,OOO; New York, S22S,527, 900; Philadelphia, SIS 3,5S3 ,O00; Cleveland, s1,S95.OOO; Richmond, s12.- 229.OO0; Atlanta, s1,703,0 ,000; Chicago, s4,S16,0 ,0GO; St. Louis, s1,729,OO0; Min neapolis, no repirt; Kansas City, s1,- 237,000; Dallas, s1,S99,000; San Fran cisco, s16,047, ,0OO.

 Many Banks Silent ! While a very large number of in- corporated banks and trust companies throughout the country have not yet reported any subscrip ions to the fed eral reserve banks" the statement continues, and while the Liberty Loan committees have unofficially re- ported a number of large subscriptions which have not yet been formally filed even making due allowance for these unreported amounts the subscriptions ! thus far received indicate the necessi- l ty for the hardest kind of work on the part of the whole country for the bal ance of the campaign.
 The secretary of the treasury has requested subscriptions to the amount of s5,000, 100000 in order that allot- ments might be made up to S4,0OO, ,OOO- 1 OOO
 The Average Needed.

 The First Campaign.
 Tt is estimated that in the first cam paign there were about five million subscribers and with the better organi- zation now available the large amount ofeducational work which has been done, the country should be able to count a. the close of the campaign subscriptions from at least ten-million people"
