MANY WORKERS IN
 THIRD LOAN DRIVE
Selling Forces Aggregate 75,oOo and Other Branches Constitute
 Veritable Army.

A VCiiSobiO Ai my SSAARoA oeAo s~~ thoroughness of organization and ci- fectiveness of operation with those now in the battle zones of France, Is working at top speed in the Eighth Federal Reserve District for the sue cess of the Third Liberty Loan.
 Reduced to the basis of army divi- sions-12, ,000 to division-there are practically eight divisions in the field. as many Liberty Loan workers in the states composing this reserve district as there were American soldiers in France just before the recent big Ger man drives.
 This army of Liberty Loan workers is being directed by a central organf ration comparable to an army's gen. eral staff. On two floors of the Rail- way Exchange Building. St. Louis, the largest office building ir the world. occupying enough space to accommo- date all the business houses of an ordinary town, are the high command CTS of this army. From this nerve center of direction go out the direc- tions. the orders. the advice to 3es counties of the district. Each smaller unit in each state and county has its individual heads and leaders.
 While these messages 60 and come by telephone and telegraph, the cen. tral headquarters is launching a veri. table avalanche of printed matter over its territory. These tons of lit- erature, destined to reach the 1885, 500 population in the district. have been mailed at the rate of 160.00o sheets day. Nineteen hundred and thfrty-nine newspapers are reached. One thousand ministers of as many churches are supplied with Christian and religious argument for the sue cess of the loan.
 Working directly under central headquarters are 6,455 sales directors. 15 to a county. Working under each director is a staff of between 10 and 15 salesmen. Even estimating the sales force under each director at 10 men. this would make a total of 65.450 salesmea. It is believed the total h nearer 75,00o.
 There are 5000 publicity directors in the district, with staffs of assist ants. There are 1000 speakers and several thousand workers in miscsl- laneous fields.
 A perfect system of checking up on all persons able to buy bonds has been evolved. V. L. Price, director of sales forces. can put his finger imms- diately upon weak spots. Each sales man is supplied with prospect" cards. These show . many financial ability as regards buying Liberty DondA K the "prospect' refusas to buy . caR1 euokaintng hAs rsfnal 1s ssuk 6y t1e 4eaosman %o the saiss dlfse>nv e Ms Aists4ct The saiss disscene.
