NORTH DAKOTA IS 100000
SHORT OF QUOTA; AMOUNT MUST
Be MADE UP IN THREE DAYS
Thirty-One Countie. Still To
Go Over Top In Cam
paign; M'Dowell Makes
Plea To Citizens To Sub
scribe.

North Dakota must subscribe three
million dollars to the Victory Liberty
loan In the next three days, else the
state will not go over the top.
Wesley Mcdowell of Marion this
afternoon made plea to North Da-
: kota citizens to come forward and do
their share. In a long distance tele.
phone conversation with The Herald,
ne declared that the loan is tagging
in 81 countless and these counties
must put. forth every effort to reach
their quotas in the next four days.
So far, the state has raised s5,-
100000. Twenty-Five counties have
gone over the top, but 81 still are to
report such success. Nr
Conditions are discouraging, Mr.
Mcdowell said, but the farmers should
not be unduly influenced thereby
The fnclement weather, which ha
made the roads all but impossible, ha
slowed up the campaign in a numbe.
dinary efforts during the remaining
four days. t'
Mr. Mcdowell declared emphatical
ly that there is no chance for any one
section of the state to make up for
any other section. The burden Of
the loan was placed upon the Red
River Valley counties. and next in
the valley. If any one county in the
eastern section falls down, the state
will not reach its quota. If any two
counties in the western section fail.
the state quota will not be subscribed,
and if the state fails to reach its al
lotment, the Ninth federal district
will fail in obtaining it's quota.
In this loan, the allotments have
been just what the government re-
Quired. No section has been asked
to take more than it really ought to,
and because Of this it is absolutely
necessary that North Dakota should
subscribe its quota.
Up to date only 495 banks in the
state have reported bond sales, and
they report a total of $S,500,000 This
is bad showing when it is consid-
cred that the subscriptions now total
$15.500,000. Mr.. Mcdowell urges that
this work be completed within the
next four days
North Dakota is in danger of fail
+ ing in the Victory Liberty loan," Mr..
1 Mcdowell said. I'm view Of the Won
derful record we made in the other

TWO BILLION
MARK MAY BE-
PASSED TODAY
Victory Loan Subscriptions
Show Increase; Big Cam
paign in Many States.

Washington, May e.-New subscrip-
ton reports to the treasury today
raised the Victory Liberty Loan total
above $1,900,000,000. and officials be-
lieved that the two billion mark
would be passed before night.
From many states today came re-
ports indicating that Secretary Glass
appeal for rousing finish of the loan
campaign was having effect. Scores
of communities which had relied on
desultory methods of gathering sub
scriptions have adopted house-to-
house canvassing plans.
Some committees reported a ten
dency on the part of many citizens
not to subscribe unless last indica-
tions were that small popular sub
scriptions were urgently needed. In
answer to these the treasury said the
time had come when small subscrip-
tions are urgently needed
At the same time some hope was
gathered from the fact that citizens
were postponing subscriptions, rather
than omitting it. This condition made
officials hope that there would be a
great flood of purchases late this
week which would put the loan over.
