LIBERTY BOND ALLOTMENT IS EAR
UNDERSUBSCRIBED; BUY MORE BONDS

FL PAS0ANS must buy more bonds. Estimates Of dis

given and amounts they have IN prospect Fl Paso viii still

The shortage is about the the banks have al
ways subscribed This time the banks cannot subscribe
this The banks have been buying up certificates
Of indebtedness Of the government at the governments
guest they bought OF the previous Liberty loans and they
loauing money to corporations and private individuals
with which buy bonds Tie result is that the banks
have the money invest heavily in Liberty bonds if
they are to carry the regular lines Of business
In consequence Of this it is necessary for the citizens
Of FL Pas0 to buy bonds This the only way out
Of the dilemma according to the committee in charge of
the sale Of bonds FL Pasoans who have purchased 500
worth OF bonds VIII have to buy another $50 worth
Of the committee put it, and Those who have
bought VIII also have TO encourage their neghbors buy
FL Paso cannot and uudeIseu quota and
cannot this time depend upon the banks to make up the
deficit.
In the past the banks have bought about 5000 worth
Of each issue Of bonds This time they cannot invest that
much money; they going to invest some but they
not invest heavily in the past for the above
stated 1hey nave told the committee this very plainly
and the committee feels that It must be frank with the
geneE public and make It very plain that the average cit
izen is going to have to consume FL Psos allotment Of
bonds
The committee urges that those who have not yet pu1
chased at all do at once, the amount be IN
with the total There many who intend to buy who
have not purchased; others have not bought and do not
intend to purchase The latter should urged to buy
and forced to buy they afford it. Those who have
not bought just through neglect should do so Immediately
Those who have bought and afford buy more are
expected to do soon as possible.
There is no delaying. FL Paso must go cover the
