LOAN OFFICIALS
 ARE DISCOURAGED
Vermont Is Third State To Come In With ! One Hundred Per
 Gent Record.

Washington, April 28,--The Ma tion has subscribed $839, ,479, ,OOO to the Victory Liberty Loan according to tabulations announced tonight by the treausdy. The figures, reporting the first weeks business, is 1865 per cent of the $4,500, 100000 total sought

 The proportion ofthe loan already subscribed is fraction of a per cent greater than that raised at the time of the fourth loan campaign, although the amount is about $200,O00,0OO less.
 Atlanta District Lags.
 This looks rather discouraging for the Victory Liberty Loan' said the treasury's daily review, "and the most hopeful sign is that some of the ehiooS dlNlSiOllS are SLOW III repOfJ- ing their sales. This is particularly true in the Atlanta district"
 Vermont today oversubscribed it's quota, according to message from the state director, who stated that 102 cities had exceeded their mini mum. Vermont is the third state to make a 100 per cent record, Michi- gan and Iowa having done this last week.
 The St. Louis district reported to, night that southern Indiana was lead ing all states inthe district, having Fl per cent of it's quota subscribed Tennessee advanced IS per cent in its sales today. Mississippi has 5 per cent. Seventeen counties have obtain ed their quotas in Kentucky.
 Workers throughout the Chicago district today were urged to speed up the campaign, as subscriptions there were reported to be "some- what slow"
 New York City has subscribed al- most four times as much as the rest of the districts in which it is located, having a total of $156,0O0OOO
