The following letter from R. l. Van

Mr.. Lawder said Monday:
Il would also call the attention OF
readers 10 the fact that subscriptions

certificates Of Indebtedness offered
by the Federal Reserve bank Of Dali
las, as fis al agent for the United
states dated August 6, due December
5, Of which the quota OF the 18th fed

lar below the amount needed The
subscrlT tons must be in the hands OF
the federal reserve bank at Dallas be-
fore . o'clock, August 13. Nathan
Adams, director Of sales, urges banks
to use their credit for the benefit OF
the government and subscribe for
these certificates 10 the limit that
conscience demands
Banks Must T-elp Government.
IF we are to win this war non es-
sential credits must be gradually
eliminated by the banks. and their
customers shoul b. educated along
this line Banking credit must be used
IN assisting the government instead
OF assisting non essential Enterprises.
The customers Of ban'-s must keep
their demands for credit down TO the
very minimum. Blu concerted action
in this respect on the part of banks
and their customers a material aggre-
gate Of credit viii be released for the
benefit Of our government during
the periods between issues Of Liberty
bonds. Nothing should be done, how
ever, TO cause due embarrassment
to necessary credits.
The certificates Of 4 debtedness
offered now may be purchased by in
dividuals as well as banks"
