AWAIT COMPLETE
returns OF LOAN
Officials Believe That Sum Will
Reach $6,OO0,OO0,OOO.

Complete returns on the Second Lib
erty Loan will not be available until
some time this week, it was an
nounced yesterday at the Treasury
Department. only two Federal re-
serve districts have filed their COM
plete figures. and the loan officials will
not make them public until the figures
for all the districts are ready for pub
liCatiOn.
Each days delay in the reports is
giving the loan CampaignerS more
hope of oversubscription and they
have found no reason yet to belittle
unofficial estimates that the sum will
reach somewhere in the neighborhood
of sG,0J0, 10000. All, of course. will not
be taken up.
The department will announce the
figures and the allotments for each
district simultaneously. There were
more than 10000 agencies engaged in
raising the loan throughout the cOun-
try. and it is said that approximately
20 per cent are yet to turn in their
figures
The magnificent response Of the
army is one OF the factors that go to
make up for the large oveTsubscrip-
ton. 1t subscribed the sum of $S9,-
1850 Of which $53O0l 90 was allotted
in favor OF the Federal Reserve Bank
of New York City. which means that
officers. enlisted men and permanent
civilian employees have assigned from
their monthly pay this grand total
for the purchase OF the bonds. The
entire American army has per cap
ita subscription Of $7G.Sj. an average
subscription of s1l3.25, nearly 10 per
cent of the army subscribing.

Weight.

Ten shivering pickets, . dressed in
summer clothes. were released from
the District Jail yesterday morning
after serving a sixty-day sentence
for obstructing trafiic before the
White House gates.
As they emerged from the jail.
they were met by a delegation OF
colleagues, bearing banners demand
ing that Alice Paul and seven other
suifragists still in jail be treated as
political prisoners.
The chill wind that swept across
the vacant lot in front OF the jail
made the white-frocked militants
shudder. When they were arrested.
on September 4. they wore white
dresses, white shoes and straw hats.
Yesterday morning they presented
quite a contrast to the overcoated
and warmly clad delegation who met
them.
Those who met the released pickets
were: Mrs. w. Thompson Burchc,
Mrs. William Kent. Mrs. Lawrence
Lewis, Miss Hazen Pinney. Miss

lies before this commission, and 1t is
our duty to collect the means to
make it possible"
Teams Meet EACH Day.

Camp Activities, gave details as to
the work now being done by the War

Great precaution is being taken by
the POStoffice Department to guard
against the improper wrapping or the
inclusion of prohibited matter in
packages sent by parcel post to the
American soldiers in France.
POstmasters throughout the Coun-
try have been instructed to inspect all
such packages mailed in their post
offices, first, to guard against their

Gus articles or any articles of a
character prohibited transportation
through the mails, and second, to See
that all packages are properly wrap
ped for safe transportation.
After having passed through in

found at these points not to be in
suitable condition for mail transporta-
tion to France may be checked. This

Beauty deyotees, are enthusiastic
over the beautifying qualities OF mer-

for its wonderful merit is that it works
in harmony with physiological laws.
