Jasper Called Upon to Buy $428,400 Worth of Bonds.
Indianapolis is called on by the government to buy $14,000,000 worth of the new liberty bonds of the United States, and Marion county, outside of Indianapolis, has been asked to raise $2,802,800, making a total of $16,802,800 for the city and county. In making the allotments to the counties, the two elements taken into consideration were population and bank resources, each on a 50 per cent basis. Following that plan of calculating, Jasper county’s allotment is found to be $428,400.
