COUNTY
MUST RAISE ITS.
IN LOAN
Chairmen in Some Parts of
State Fearful It Will Be
Impossible to Raise Their
Allotments.
Spirit of Optimism Prevails
at State Headquarters
That Idaho Will Do It's
Duty-Splendid Showing
in Ada County.

Notwithstanding that the reports
coming to the state headquarters show
that every county In Idaho lacked
much Of having its quota at noon Sat-
urday, there is evidenced a feeling of
optimism that Is sure to be reflected
in immediate big gains. Requests
were wired Saturday morning to ali
county chairmen to telegraph at once
the total bonds actually sold and to
advise the committee of the likelihood
Of the county filling it's allotment
promptly.
The replies show that in several in
stances the Chairmen feel that tho al
lotments will not be subscribed. "Tais
business of saying that a county viii
not make it's allotment is all wrong"
said one Of the members of the state
committee last night. Every county
must make it's allotment. II the Or
ganization will get down. to business
and make the people understand that
there can be no such thing as failure.
every county will come across. The
drive must continue every day of the
coming week. Idaho must raise its
100000.
RENEWED EFFORTS NEEDED.
r The allotments are fair. They are
based on bank deposits and upon gen
eral conditions. They were worked
over for four days before they were
accepted. 1t is certain that the gov
eminent will not look with favor upon
sections of the country that fail to
back up the soldiers with their money.
IDAHO CANNOT AFFORD TO BE-
AS A STACKER.
When the people once realize the SER
lousness of the situation they will buy
the bonds. They must be made to sec
their duty. The county organizations
must make renewed efforts and must
not quit until every dollar of the al |
otment has been secured"
