Liberty LoanQ Quotas
Beginning April q

The "fair and square" individual
quota system, to be used to large
extent in the Victory Loan campaign
beginning April 81, is expected to
distribute investments in the fifth is
sue of government securities more
fairly throughout the country than
any previous campaign has done. By
this system the burden if subscrib-
ing to the governments securities
will not be put upon that portion of
the public which feels its patriotic
duty most, but every man will be
shown just what his country expects
him to do. ~a.. q.
We have become accustomed to
quotas for states, counties and
towns, and in practically every case
each such unit has "gone over the
top" But there have been many in
stances where comparatively small
portion Of the population has sub
scribed that quota. In two adjoining
counties, for instance, in the Fourth
Liberty Loan campaign, this was
forcefully illustrated. One county,
with a quota Of $4,000, sold its
bonds to 81 persons. The adjoining
county, with the same quota, used
the ''fair and square" individual
quota system, assigning every citi-
zen his share, and the $4,000 in
bonds was distributed among 400 in
vestorsJ
Under the individual quota system
every man in the county is assigned a
definite amount of bonds or notes,
and is expected to subscribe at least
that amount. The quota is based on
his income and property. There is a
local committee to which he may ap-
peal If he believes his quota is I'M
fair. He is under no compulsion to
subscribe that amount or any other
amount, but it has been found that
in the majority of cases he is glad
TO have some definite sum fixed for
him as it gives an idea of what his
share in the government loan should
be. It is certain, of course, that the
committee will make some mistakes
in fixing individual quotas; that they
nnot, in all cases, know definitely
nat individuals ought to subscribe,
Tut in the majority Of instances it
win be found that their estimates are
not far from correct.
The zone chairmen have an inn
portant work in connection with the
fixing of quotas for counties that
heretofore have not been allotted the
amounts they should be required to
raise. For instance, the county of
Franklin, in the Fourth Liberty Loan
campaign, was required to raise only
$4,000, sum that could easily have
been pledged amoung four or five of
her citizens. The larger counties of
the state, like Kinds, Washington,
Coahoma, Harrison, Lauderdale and
Adams have heretofore carried too
much of the burden.-Jackson Daily

The alleged reason for this situa-
ton is the stoppage Of export for
army use abroad and the failure Of
civilian beef consumption to resume
its normal status. The hotel and high,
class family trade are not consuming
the quantities of choice beef which
they used before the war, and the fam
lies Of moderate income are eating
only cheaper cuts, the price of which
must compensate in part for that OF
the cuts for which there is smaller
demand. The fact is evident that
many persons who desire to eat more
meat, especially beef and lamb, are
denying themselves.
No Need for Conservation.
People do not realize that the ne
cessty for conservation of foods, espe-
cially meat no longer exists, except
! as a matter of reasonable economy
and prevention Of sinful waste. We
have in prospect the greatest wheat
crop in our history; we had in 1918
| By far the largest production of pork
we ever had. as well as a great in
crease In our beef, lamb and dairy
production. Yet one sees everywhere
