LIBERTY LOAN ACTIVITIES,
A conference was held in Washing-
ton daring the week beginning Decem-
ber 10, which lasted several daye, be-
tween Becretary McAdoo and other
Treasury officials and representatives
from Liberty Loan organizations a'l
over the country, which included offi-
cials of the Federal Reserve Banks,
Plans for future Liberty Loan cam-
paigns were perfected and an organi-
zation at once wider and closer was ar-
ranged for. Rural communities and
small towns and small cities particu-
larly will feel the effect of the new
campaign plane,
Failure of rural communities to sub-
scribe relatively as liberally as the
metropolitan districts was generally
ascribed not to lack of patriotism but
lack of thorough organization and in-
tensive campaigning. In future csm-
paigns every agency will be used in
the rural districts as well as in the
citiee,. The woman’s organizations
will be very active and hearty cooper-
ations between them and the other or-
ganizations is assured,
Educational work in the schools of
the country is to be stressed, and
through the schools generally, there-
fore, educations] campalgns are to be
only during Liberty Loan campaigns
but in the intervals between,
Enthusiasm, patriotism and earnest-

A. According to Coionel Fair, who
came from Washington to address the
farmers, one animal is required for
every four men under arms. When
this nation has finally transported 1,-

will be with them 250,000 horees and
mules,
American farmers are expected to
supply a fifth of this number, and the
remainder will be procured from deal-
ere. All of them, however, will be
purchased in the open marke!. There
will be none bought on the contract
