In view of the respite since the last issue of certificates, we strongly urge those banks that are below their quotas on the offerings since December 5, 1918 to improve their relative standings by placing a liberal subscription to this issue, and thus fulfill their obligation to the Government. The banks that have regularly absorbed their quotas are urged to continue their splendid co-operation. We appreciate the generous attitude heretofore displayed by the banks of this district in meeting the heavy calls of the Government, which encourages us to believe that this request for a broad distribution will receive a favorable response.
