CARTER GLASS IN APPEAL

Marion, N. d., May 5.-At the end
of the first two weeks drive in the
Victory Liberty Joan campaign in
North Dakota we are still short four
and a half million dollars of our quota.
Only twenty counties have raised their
full allotment and most of these are
counties that carry a small portion OF
the loan with the exception OF Bur
leigh, Stutsman, Nelson and Dickey
counties. The,six Red River counties,
together with the county Of Cavalier,
according to reports, so far received
at this office, are two million five
hundred thousand dollars short OF
their allotments, 33 counties in all
have not reached their quota. These
counties which are. still below their
quota must raise the deficit in the
states allotment. = ..a. .-
We have no margin in this loan
and each and every part OF the Ninth
Federal Reserve district must make
its quota or the whole district will
fall down. That means, that, North
Dakota must raise ITS full quota or
endanger the record Of the entire dis
trict. This past week has been very
disappointing So much. rain and bad
roads have made it impossible for
automobile travel in good manyssec,
tiOns OF the state, ana plans5tWhlch
were made for thorough canvass IN
some counties have had to be postpon-
ed until the coming week. Every
county organization realizes the i'm
portance OF making it's quota and we
have the definite promise from the
majority of those VINO have not reach
ed their allotment that an effort will
be made Monday and Tuesday to fill
their quotas.
At noon Saturday 478 banks in
North Dakota had reported to the fed
eral reserve bank cards in their pos
session in the amount of seven mil
lion five hundred dollars. The fed.
eral reserve bank reported to Wash
ington for the entire Ninth Federal
Reserve district eighty-three million
two hundred and fifty dollars. Lib
erty loan chairmen had reported in
the Ninth Federal Reserve district one
hundred fifteen million dollars sold,
Of which North Dakota fhas fourteen
million five hundred thousand dollars.
The last counties to make their
quotas are Logan, Sioux, Oliver, Pierce
and Dickey. All subscription cards
must be turned in by the county chair
man to the banks in, time for the
banks to notify the Federal Reserve
banks by May 10 OF the total amount
subscribed. This will be our official
record All Liberty loan workers over
the state in all counties which are
yet behind in their qotas must give
up all private business and devote
their time exclusively to this drive or
North Dakota will fall behind. We
can and will make it if this is done,
and in no other way.
