EFFORTS REDOUBLED

Atlanta, May S--Victory Loan offi- cials here and throughout the dis- trict redoubled their efforts today and scores of telephone calls went out from headquarters telling individual work CTS just what the district needed. The men behind the loan realize the ter rife task before them. but there was an encouraging feature today in the way in which most of the states in the district showed increases. Fourteen new counties were announced as lover the top,' making 126 in all, and Ala bama reported a Al per cent gain Tn subscriptions for Wednesday, Georgia s1S per cent and Florida 10 per cent.
 Birmingham, and Macon, Ga, were two of the largest cities in the district announced today as having subscribed their quotas, their counties going with them in each case. Other counties an nounced today as reaching their allot- ment were:
 Jackson and Lincoln, Mississippi; Cleburne and Lee, Alabama; Cherokee, Effingham, Jones, Screven, Upson and Walker Georgia Claiborne and Ruth erford, Tennessee

Victory Loan Subscriptions
 Near Three Billion Dollars
(Continued from Page One)

may enter larger subscrip lief that in the final allotments, their purchases will be pared down. This would result from the treasurys an- intention of accepting no more than s4, 800, COG, 900 subscriptions, unless the purchases of 900 or less of Victory notes should push the total beyond that figure. No subscription of s10,0O0 or less are to be rejected.
 The feeling of relief apparent about the treasury today is not to be interpreted, however, as indicating any reason why all the subscriptions possible should not be trotted in during the remaining two days. Small orders still are as much desired as ever, it was explained. be- cause the financial soundness of the loan depends so strongly on a wide distribu- tion of the securities.
 race for the highest standing in per centage of quota at the close of the rec ords Saturday has developed between the St. Louis district, which still heads the percentage list. with 1854 the Min neapolis district with 1881, and the New York district with 71.s5. New York in the figures tabulated tonight at the treasury was within s3000,A00 of a billion dollars.
 
 that individual subscriptions in that city now number 2O5, 800. At a corresponding period in the fourth loan the city had 175,50O.
 ST. LOUIS TO GO OVER
 A telegram from St. Louis tonight in- dicated that district expects to go over the top tomorrow. St. Louis city, with 75 per cent of it's quota subscribed, was reported the lowest in standing of all Il. .. x.- x11r. which has already obtained it's quota, will go a million and half dollars over it's allotment
 The Cleveland district now has 654 hon. or communities and is headed only by the Chicago district, which has 10S0. The Boston district has 4S4 communities over their allotment.
 Secretary Glass today sent the fol- lowing message broadcast through the Woman's Liberty Loan committee to the women of America
 "The women of the United States have made instant and magnificent response to every call which the government has made to them. Through the five Lib erty Loans they have served with devo- tion, with zeal, and with self-sacrlf1clng patriotism. They have bought bonds to the limit of their purchasing power, and sold bonds to the limit of human powers of endurance of persuasion and of stead fastness in purpose. Even with the armi- stice signed, they have never ceased in t3sir answering devotion to duty. In this Victory Liberty Loan they have been pillars of power and towers of strength in the selling organization. Undaunted by obstacles and discouragements, they have held their posts. At this crisis of the loan the government of the United States again sounds the bugle for fur ther advance. In keen realization of what women have already done in this and other campaigns the treasury calls to them in these closing days of the loan for service in final rush upon the field
