National Bank of'Commerce and mem
Der Of the Liberty Loan Committee, said
yesterday that the Prudential Life In
surance Company. OF whose finance COM
mittee he is chairman. months ago began
putting its funds In United States GER
tificates of Indebtedness with the de-
termination to use the latter in paying
for Liberty bonds. The company sub
scribed to $30,0o0.000 at the outset, be-
lieving that this was all II could finance.
At meeting this week the directors
decided that they would have to go
further II the present loan was to be
a success. and as result they Sub
scribed sl0,000.000 additional. Other
corporations are taking similar action
Talk has been heard that the corpora
lions have been holding back their sub
scriptions. Mr.. Alexander asserts that
II has been the policy of the large cor
porations in this drive to buy all they
could at the outset on the basis that this
record loan required a much greater
start. He says that the additional sub
scriptions that are now coming forward
from corporations do not represent de-
layed subscriptions. but determination
ought.
This policy will also have to be
adopted by individuals. who should buy
until they have thereby obligated them
selves to take an amount of bonds that
will make them lie awake nights. Just
like the boys In the trenches. wondering
what Is going to happen to them" said
Mr.. Alexander.
