Loan Campaign
Takes a Squirt;
Parade Is Help.
Subscriptions Jump Ahead
and New York District
Now Has Pledged 4l.2O
Per Gent of Its Quota

Enthusiasm over the 18th Division
parade yesterday put fresh impetus into
the Victory loan campaign, and, at the
end Of the day, Benjamin Strong, chair
man of the Victory Liberty Loan Com
mittee, characterized the results as
the first encouraging sign OF the drive.
Although the precise statistical ex-
tent Of the days spurt was not yet
reflected in the official total for the
district last night, the figure sn-
nounced fired the loan workers with
enthusiasm and optimism. The gain
for the thirteenth day was the largest
thus far, and placed the district slightly
ahead relatively Of where it stood in
the corresponding period of the Fourth
Loan. Subscriptions officially re-
corded by the Federal Reserve Bank
of the district yesterday reached $146,-
352 500, bringing the aggregate up to
$557 ,272 400, or 41.2 per cent of its
quota of $780, 100000, which must
be filled by midnight Saturday.
Other Districts Do Better
However, in the proportion Of its
quota filled thus far, the nation as
whole is better off than the New York
district According to an announce
ment by the Treasury Department last
night. the twelve Federal Reserve dis
tricts have raised $1,000, ,742,OOO, or
1919 per cent of the amount set by
Secretary Glass
Every district except Atlanta excels
New York in its relative achievement.
Only st. Louis, Minneapolis, Chicago
and Boston, however, have passed the
halfway mark. The standing of the
other districts follows:

Strong, though he regarded the latess
official figure as "encouraging," en-

the great city they called home as

from tho Battery to the furthest

poured to the avenue, to shout greet

ranks of brown-faced men tramping
swiftly past
In the shrill roar that rose and
followed ever louder as the column
drove north were cries that rose from
something deeper than the throat
shouts for Able and Giovanni, Sing
