S6, ,989,047,0OO TOTAL
OF LAST LOAN DRIVE
Fourth Liberty Issue Sets New
Worlds Record: Surplus Al
most a Billion Dollars.

Washington. Nov. 2O.-A statement
issued by the United States Treasury
last night shows that all records I'D world
war finance were broken by the Fourth
Liberty Loan. Taking the four war lonaS
the response Of the American people
stands without a parallel In tins or any
other war. All told they offered the
Government 81 sos, 900, ,O0 more than was
accepted.
The approximate final figures for the
Fourth Loan subscriptions were Vt, as9,-
or 900, which was $3.50, o,0l1 ,oUh, or 10
per cent, more than was called Tor.
This oversubscription tho Government
will accept, making the total amount
put into Government war loans by the
ncopIc. including War Saving Stamps,
Sl7.5S2. .OOO, 900 Items included III this
total arc: First loan. 5000, ,0o0, 900;
Second Loan. 81, sos. 600 600; Third Loan

600.
In the Fourth Loan every district
was nvcrsuhscrbcd The place of honor is
held by Boston, which went beyond its
quota 2644 per cent Richmond was n
close second with 2595 per cent
The record is considered all the more
remarkable from the fact that two un-
toward influences were supposed to be
working against the appeal to the Amer
lean people reaching its full power. One
was the epidemic of influenza, which not
only interferred with the speaking cam
paign but seriously checked individual
soliciting in many localities, so that the
response to the nations need reduced
itself, in great parts of the country, to
the basis of voluntary action on the part
of the citizen. The other untoward IN
fuence, as supposed. was the peace talk.
The large oversuhscription, owever,
makes it clear that the Americ / people
were determined To see the W. through
To decisive finish.

est fioated by any country during the
