Analysis Of The Fourth
Liberty Loan Figures Is
Not Wholly Discourdgir1g
tBy Associated Press)


Washington. Oct l0.--"How is the
fourth Liberty loan going?"
A comparison today Of records
during this campaign with those of
the third loan showed the following
facts The fourth campaign is half
gone and s1,79i, 10000 in subscrip-
tions or 30 per cent Of the six bill
lions, has been reported, When the
third campaign was helf over 33 per
cent OF the total finally reached, had
been subscribed. This record in the
third loan drive. 1920. 100000 less than
at the corresponding stage of the
present drive. was achieved in two
weeks, as compared with ten days
which have passed in the current
campaign.
These facts seem to show that prog
ress In the fourth Loan is compare
tive TO that in the third, which was
highly successful.
Treasury officials who try to judge
the present situation with neither
undue optimism nor unjustified pes
simigm. point out that the six bill
lion dollar credit which the people
now are trying TO accumulate for the
governments use Is twice as large as
the three billions sought in the third
campaign and is nearly 80 per cent
greater than the s4,176,000 600 actu-
ally subscribed to the third Loan.
Besides, 1t Is said by those who
study the tendencies OF the various
loans subscribers to the fourth Loan
are paying their initial ten per cent
installment much faster than In
! previous campaigns.
On the closing day Of the third
Loan campaign, reported subscrip-
lions amounted to $4,000. 900. 900 vet
when then great task Of compiling
last day pledges was completed q
week or two later the total was more
than billion higher or $4.176, 000. 900.
The belated flood consisted largely
OF small subscriptions Few pur-
chases running into the millions were
recorded.
In the present campaign a larger
inflow of subscriptions from big
business interests and individuals OF
wealth Is expected. To large
extent however, these already have
been entered and are included In the
current totals.
1t Is for reasons such as these that
treasury officials are puzzled over
the prospects of the fourth loan.
They hardly can believe that the
American people will let war loan
tall below tho goal at this time. vet
the available figures do not look we'll.
Hence the cautionarY plea that ev-
cry individual should double his
third loan subscription.

FASHIONS, spENpTHRIFr pAYs

The fashions of a few seasons ago
belong to our prodigai. spendthrift
past. says The Delineator for Sep
TENDER. They were extravagant
styles, STYLES that will not answer
today. The new fashions call for aa
little fresh material as possible and
allow one to cut down old dresses to
new usefulness. Women used to
dress to please themselves and their
husbands or sweethearts. Dress to-
day is a twofold obligation-to con-
serve and to discourage the enemy
by a display of mistaken confidence
and nerve.
