Joseph county was announced hy Charles 1 ZlRler, chairman of the county loan conwnittee, Tuesday afternoon. He stated that ö,3ö.S,400, oriinally allotted ly the Chicago rts.-rve hank was hti error, acoordinK to a, report from tlie täte committee at Indianapolis, and that this amount has been reduced tu $:V.'n,0oo. This is 5ased on the change in the allotment for the Chicago district which is S7oij.ouo.0no. or .M.r.
I cent of tne total resources of all
of thf hanks. Uased on that ratio, each county in the Chicago district will have
i to subscribe 1 I percent of its total
were
banking resources. In the lirst loan the banks asked for oli:ht percent of
total capital, and surplus. The new alotment includes, in addition to these, the deposits. The total nankin, resources of ot. Joseph comity a:nount to $2-",-Names ('oiiiinittef . The following committees have been appointed by Mr. Zitier to carry on the work of the campaign in this county. They are; Pubhcity committee: Joseph NVff and Home C. Stephens. n. These men will make four minute talks at ihe local theaters and promote til general publicity campaign. rami committee: Samuel deeper, chairman. The remainder . of this committee will be appointed within a few days. Headquarters: c W. Cohen and
K. W. Johnson. The purpse of j these men will be to locate a vacant storeroom somewhere in the. business district of South Bend, which will be opened after bank-' in,; hours to accept subscription J for the loan. i Mr. Zigler is also considering!
naming a comimiiee oi umni iu j
make a house to house canvass of j the city. I County Low on List. ! The report for the first day of ,
the loan in the various counties of Indiana in the Chicago district shows St. Joseph county low on the list with ?5."0. This was partly due. however, to the failure of a number of banks to report Monday night and Tuesday morning. Marion county in which Indianapolis is situated showed up well the lirst day with $llfi.r.50. Tippecanoe county was next with 2.:"50; Wayne, thijd. $22,130, and
their i Clay, fourth w ith J 9.700.
The Liberty loan allotment to the various states of the seventh bank reserve, or Chicago district, follows : Indiana. .::. 200, 000; Illinois, $27L::0o.0G0: Iowa. $124,2:.0,00(; Michigan. $ 1 2 4.2 ."0.000 : and Wislonsin. J S4,OOo,mou.
A special effort will be made j during the pi -nt Joan campaign! to solicit the subscriptions of farm-)
eis. This element in the personnel '
of the country's citizenship man- j ifested only lukewarm interest in
the first loan, according to statistics submitted by the government. It is Mr. Zlgler's intention to make. i special ajcpeal to farmers in St. Joseph county to make this section a shining example for the rest of the state and district."
