LETTER OF APPRECIATION BY THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY TO
THE MEMBERS OF THE NATIONAL WOMAN'S LIBERTY LOAN COMMITTEE AT THE CLOSE OF ITS WORK.
OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY,
Washington, July 9, 1919.
As the close of the work of the National Woman's Liberty Loan
Committee approaches I desire to express to you as a member of that
committee the Treasury's deep and sincere appreciation of its invaluable service to the Nation and the Government's program of war
finance. You assisted in immeasurable degree in mobilizing the womanhood of the United States and in helping the mothers, wives, and
sisters of the heroic sons of America who went to France for the sake
of the liberty of their country and of mankind to understand the
purposes of the war and the needs of the Government to prosecute
it to a successful conclusion. The organization which the committee
perfected was a splendid tribute to its intelligent leadership, and the
Treasury is very proud of the results achieved both in arousing the
sentiment of the people and in subscriptions to the securities of the
Government. No words of Inine will adequately compensate for
tasks so well and unselfishly performed, but in the years to come it
will be a comforting satisfaction to you always to realize that you
served your country with devotion and patriotism in the greatest
crisis of her history and contributed your share in no small measure
to the success of the war.
It is my privilege and honor to extend to the members of the comInittee and its entire organization the sincere congratulations and
grateful thanks of the Treasury.
With assurances of my best wishes and high regard, I am,
Sincerely, yours,
CARTER GLASS.

THE NATIONAL WOMAN'S LIBERTY LOAN COMMITTEE.
By Hon. W. G. McAnoo.
[Taken from the report of the Secretlry of the Tnl8111rY for the year 1918.J
One of the most notable factors in the success of the Liberty loans
has been the work of the women of the United States. · It was with
the belief that the women of the Nation would constitute a powerful
moral force in war finance that the National Woman's Liberty Loan
Committee was appointed by the Secretary of the Treasury in May,
1917. That they, working through the organization effected by this
agency, have not only accomplished this purpose, but have also become an essential element in the actual labors of promoting the loans,
constitutes one of the most interesting chapters in the financing of the
war. There is probably no war service in which so many women
have taken more active part than in the raising of money to pay our
war burden. To their energy, their enthusia~m, their zeal, and their
vision is due a great part of the success of the Liberty loans.
When the United States went into war with Germany the business
of bond selling was a field so new to women that .all work within it
has been genuine pioneering. The organization of women for the
task has been the work of the National Woman's Liberty Loan Committee, which has served in cooperation with the Treasury's war-loan
organization. The members of this committee, serving as volunteers,
have performed the work of enlisting more than a half million women
as sellers of Liberty bonds.
The first labors of the members of the committee, after the closing
of the first Liberty loan where their work had been general publicity
of war finance among women, were concerned with the adjustment
of established organizations of women throughout the country to the
established machinery for the raising of the loans. Where organization existed, the women of the Nation were brganized by States,
while the Treasury's loan organization was based upon the 12 fiscal
divisions of the United States. It was the problem of the committee to correlate the two schemes of organization. They solved it
by the appointment of both State and Federal reserve chairmen, the
former responsible for actual organization of women in their respective States, the latter serving as the representatives of the women in
dealing with the Liberty loan committees of the respective Federal
reserve districts. Liberty loan committees elected the women Federal reserve chairmen members of their executive· committees.
In this organization during the second Liberty loan 60,000 women
became sellers of bonds. Reports of the women State chairmen, and
(VI)

VD
of the executive committees of the Federal reserve districts, indicate
that the woman's organization obtained subscriptions for
$1,000,000,000 of the second loan. In the third loan 500,000 women
were enrolled as members of the organization, which had a woman
chairman in almost every county of the United States, and township
officers in almost every township. In the third loan the women were
again credited with having been the selling agents of more than a
billion dollars in bonds. In the fourth loan between seven and eight
hundred thousand women served, but it is not possible at this time to
make an estimate of the amount of bond sales attributable to the
woman's organization.
No mere recital of results achieved can show the extent of the service which women have given to the Nation through their participation in war finance. That hundreds of thousands of women
assumed the burden of a new kind of labor, not for themselves but for
their country, is one of the most striking and characteristic facts in
relation to the women of America that the war has developed. The
Liberty loans have afforded a new proving ground where the women
of the Nation have accepted the opportunity to demonstrate again
their patriotism, their ability, their consciousness of the obligations of
citizenship, and their steadfastness of soul in the great and terrible
crisis which our country has met.
WHAT AMERICAN WOMEN HAVE DONE FOR THE LIBERTY LOANS.
The women of America have demonstrated extraordinary power
and capacity in connection with the financial operations of the Government. Their work has been of the highest value.
The National Woman's Liberty Loan Committee has brought into
existence an organization of women throughout the country which is
one of the most important factors in the success of Liberty loans.
I am deeply grateful for the splendid support American women
have given to the Treasury and to all war activities. The increasing
demands of the war will make their work more and more important.
Their continued enthusiastic and spirited cooperation strengthens my
eonfidence in the success of the Treasury's future financial undertakings.
(Signed)
W. G. McADoo.

REPORT OF THE NATIONAL WOMAN'S LIBERTYLOAN COMMITTEE FOR THE VICTORY LOAN
CAMPAIGN.
This last report issued by the National Woman's Liberty Loan
Committee for the Victory Loan Campaign differs from previous
reports where space was given to material which might be valuable
for use in a forthcoming campaign. As there is now no longer any
value in detail that may be inspirational to future work, the National
Woman's Liberty Loan Committee has endeavored, in this report,
to suggest as briefly as possible the field covered by women in the
loan campaigns, and the success which has crowned their efforts.
The victory loan had an especial appeal for women, and possibly
for that reason the campaign was conducted with a finer spirit and
with more enthusiasm than that of any previous loans. Women,
necessarily noncombatants in the great struggle for freedom, were
animated, even more than men, by thanksgiving that the war
and its attendant sacrifices were over. No effort seemed too great
in selling the bond issue which was to "finish the job."
It is the history of the woman's organization for the Victory loan,
in State after State, that practically all the chairmen serving in the
fourth loan reenlisted eagerly for service in the fifth, and that the
amount of money subscribed through the women's committee was
often greater in the fifth than in the fourth, in spite of the decreased
quotas.
More than a million women were members of the National W oman'Ef
Liberty Loan Committee organization in the United States in the
fourth and fifth campaigns. When the war began many of these
women knew nothing whatever of investments of any kind. To-day
they have-not only succeeded in selling over one-fourth of the second,
third, fourth, and fifth loans, but they have been an important factor
in the education for thrift, which has been a by-product of the bond
sales. Owing to educational campaigns conducted by the woman's
committee, saving, in order to invest for the future, has become a
part of the calculations of the conscientious American housewife.
The National Woman's Liberty Loan Committee realizes that the
phenomenal success which has crowned the work of women in Treasury
service is due in a great measure to those who will never receive
the credit due them. In this report an endeavor has been made
to point out the personal sacrifices of the local chairman all over
I

the country, but it is not possible to do this adequately in so brief a
statement. It is, however, not only because of the self-sacrifice and
devotion, the patriotism, and the passionate will to serve, on the part
_of the members of the complicated and wide-flung women's organization, that we are able to make the statement in this final report that the
woman's Liberty loan organization has made a significant contribution
to the winning of the war; it is also because they were given a great
opportunity that they won a commensurate success. It was through
the vision and the faith in the capacity of women of the honorable
the Secretary of the Treasury, Mr. William Gibbs McAdoo, that the
opportunity to do so large a piece of work was given to the women of
the United States.
In the beginning of the war Secretary McAdoo called the members of his National Woman's Committee to Washington and gave
them full powers to act. Rooms in the Treasury Building were put
at their disposal; franking privileges in the mails and in the telegraph
companies were given to them for the use of their whole organization;
they were instructed to make their own budget, on which an appropriation, necessary to the expenses of their work, was granted them.
No committee of men or women enlisted in war service could have
been invested with greater authority and independence, and the
members of the National Woman's Liberty Loan Committee will
always retain a feeling of gratitude and appreciation of the privilege
which was theirs in being allowed to work on a committee, which, for
the first time in the history of the United States, adequately recognized the ability of women, and entrusted them with great responsibilities.
It is interesting to note that practically every report from State
chairmen serving in the Liberty Loan Committee organization states
the fact that in the fifth campaign the men's committee called upon
the women to undertake a larger part of the responsibility of the
campaign, and gave them generous cooperation, and sometimes too
generou£ an appreciation, for the work that they had done. This
was not the situation in the second or third campaigns; at that time
the tendency of the men's committee was to underestimate the
ability of women, and to protest the fact that they had been authorized
to work independently for the sale of Liberty bonds, and, again, had
it not been for the constant support of the Secretary of the Treasury,
the woman's committee might, in the various Federal reserv,e
districts, have .been seriously handicapped by the men's committees.
It was only through his powerful protection that the women were
enabled to continue their work until they had convinced the men
in the loan organizations all over the country that they had not
only a right to continue in the field but also that it would have been
impossible for the men to have sold the quota alone.

At the end of the last loan the members of the National Woman's
Liberty Loan Committee, thoroughly familiar as they were with the
local situations between the two committees in every reserve bank
-district, feel assured that one result of the association of the past
two years is an increased appreciation on the part of both men and
women of the other's work, an inclination to join forces rather than
to work for the same goal in separate camps, and a readiness together to answer the call for patriotic service in the future, should
the occasion arise.
The National Woman's Liberty Loan Committee, in closing this
statement accompanying its final report, wishes to offer its most
sincere gratitude and appreciation to the honorable the Secretary
of the Treasury, Mr. Carter H. Glass. He has continued the policy
adopted toward the woman's committee since. its inception, and his
support of and trust in its policies has been a stimulating and delightful thing to those who have come in touch with it. It has been
a great pleasure and privilege to work under his leadership, and it is a
keen regret to the members of the national committee that the time
has come when their services are no longer required by him.
The National Woman's Liberty Loan Committee also takes this
opportunity of expressing its deep appreciation of the courteous
assistance rendered to th1 women of its organization by the governors
of the Federal reserve banks, and by th::i chairmen of the various
local men's committees. Finally the members of the National
Woman's Liberty Loan Committee wish to express a deep and affectionate appreciation of the work of the members of the woman's
Liberty loan organization, whose struggles they have appreciated,
whose self-sacrifice they have admired, and in whose success they
have rejoiced. The 12 Woman's Liberty Loan Committee chairmen
of the Federal reserve districts, who rendered faithful service ftB
liaison officers between the men's and women's committees, the
48 State chairmen and the chairman of the District of Columbia,
whose devotion and zeal never faltered even where organization was
perfected and when quotas were passed, the county and township
chairmen, surmounting rural problems of wide diatances and bad
roads, and the city chairmen, driving through tangles of municipal
complications, each deserve an especial appreciation.
To those members of the national committee who have been most
closely in touch with the Liberty loan work, the bond established is
too strong a one to be broken by mere dissolving of a committee.
Through close association with these loyal women of the United
States has come a greater belief in the patriotism of the American
people, and an abiding faith in the United States of America.-J. A. F.

Owing to illness in her family, the Federal reserve chairman wasunable to visit each State in her district as she had in other cam•
paigns, but the first district is small in territory and the inspirational
value of the reserve chairman's office in Boston was great.
There were no reserve district conferences; State conferences wereheld in Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and New Hampshire.
Mrs. Antoinette Funk attended these conferences, representing the
National Woman's Liberty Loan Committee. No State conferences
were held in Connecticut or Maine.
The New England States reported a larger percentage of the quota.
raised in the fifth loan than in any previous loan. Following is a.

JOHN
T.
PRATT,
120 Broadway, New York City, Woman's Liberty Loan Com
mittee Federal Reserve Chairman.
It is interesting to note that the woman's organization in the second
district has increased in size steadily and the amounts raised in relation to the district quotas have increased proportionately. The
National Woman's Liberty Loan Committee appointed Miss Ida
Furman, chairman of the second district, for the first loan, but, as
her appointment did not come until after the loan had begun, she
had time only to form a committee of women to work in New York
City. This work was largely done by the New York Suffrage
Association.
Before the second loan Mrs. John T. Pratt had taken over the work
-of the second district. At the end of the second campaign there
were about 5,000 women in her organization, and before the third
-campaign a systematic effort was made to form a committee of women
in every city, town, and community where bonds were to be sold.
In each campaign the efficiency of this organization increased until in
the fifth campaign there were 1,790 committees in the second district,
with 50,000 women enlisted in them. In this connection it is inter-esting to note that of the chairmen and committee members appointed at the beginning of the second loan, 36 served as county
chairmen throughout the third, fourth, and fifth loans, and 46 of
the county chairmen appointed for the fifth loan have served ever
since that office was created previous to the third campaign.
On March 10 a Federal reserve district conference of cou'nty chairmen was held at the residence of Mrs. Pratt, 7 East Sixtieth Street.
The meeting, presided over by Mrs. Pratt, was addressed by Dr.
George Vincent, head of Rockefeller Foundation, Gov. Benjamin
Strong, of the Second Federal Reserve Bank, and Mrs. Kellogg
Fairbank, representing the National Woman's Liberty Loan Committee.
Owing to the fact that the second district is almost entirely composed of New York State, Mrs. Pratt combined the offices of Federal
reserve and State chairmen. In this capacity she visited many of
her counties and was a constant inspiration to the women working
under her.

in her district, particularly those in the city of Philadelphia, whereher office was situated, and with whom she kept in constant touch,.
speaking at meetings and sharing in plans of campaign.
No Federal reserve district conference of county chairmen was
held, but the counties lying in each State had separate conferences,.

The organization for the Victory loan was stronger and more
effective than any previous campaign, and better cooperation be~
tween the men's and women's committees was established.
Mrs. Mulhauser had in previous camraigns combined the offices of
both reserve and State chairmen; she was consequently in intimatetouch with the situation in Ohio, and was therefore in position to
be of unusual value to the State chairman there; and as the mountain counties in Kentucky interested her greatly, she was always.
ready to assist the chairman of western Kentucky in her efforts to
organize them.

SEVENTH FEDERAL RESERVE DISTRICT.
(Illinois, 58 counties; Indiana, 68 counties; Iowa; Mlchi,an, 68 counties; Wisconsin, 45 counties.)
Miss
GRACE DIXON,
105 West Monroe Street, Chicago, Ill., Woman's Liberty Loar,,
Committee Federal Reserve Chairman.
The campaign in the seventh district was launched at a conference
.,of men and women held in Chicago and attended by 1,500 Liberty
loan workers from the five States. At the morning conference
.addresses were made by Mrs. George Bass and Mrs. Kellogg Fairbank,
.of the National Woman's Liberty Loan Committee, Gen. Leonard
Wood, Mr. Arthur Vandenberg, and Mr. Lafayette Young, jr. Mr.
•Chas. H. Schweppe, director of loans in the seventh district, presided
at the meeting.· In the afternoon various State conferences were
held where the Federal re~erve chairman for women spoke. In
·the evening a banquet was held where the honorable the secretary of
the Treasury, Mr, Carter H. Glass, was the speaker.
The Federal reserve chairman for women visited each State in her
district and spoke for the loan at innumerable meetings. Special
literature for women was sent out in the seventh district by the reserve
chairman; a woman's poster was issued, drawn by Mrs. Strohm,
.depicting a woman adding a fifth point to the star of victory, and a
playlet, "Lest we Forget," written by Miss Helen Bagg, was played
:in the greater part of the counties in the seventh district.
A new departure of the work for the Federal reserve chairman in
the fifth loan was a foreign-language division, under the guidance of
Mrs. Edward W. Bemis, which gave suggestions to the State chairmen
regarding Americanization work in connection with the Victory loan,
and advised them how to handle various problems which arose concerning the foreign-born population. Literature was printed in six
languages and distributed through the chairmen; pageants especially
planned for group meetings were given throughout the district.

in which all of the States in her district, except Iowa, participated.
Silk flags w.er.e awarded to the winners in each State.

EIGHTH FEDERAL RESERVE DISTRICT.
(Arkansas; Dllnols. 44 counties; Indiana, 24 counties; Kentncky. 64 counties; Mississippi, 29 counties;
Missouri, 95 counties; Tennessee, 21 counties.)
Mrs. THEODOUE BENOIST, 210 North Broadway, St. Louis, Mo., Woman's Liberty
Loan Committee Federal Reserve Chairman.
One hundred and fifty thousand women stood ready on April 10
to begin work for the Victory loan in the eighth district. The reserve
chairman, in company with the men's orgl!,llization, made a tour of
the field in advance of the loan and reported the organization 100
per cent ready.
.
Never before were there so many special features in the eighth
district. The tanks were sent broadcast, and in the majority of
places the women arranged parades and meetings in connection
with them.
Literature sent out by the National Woman's Liberty Loan Committee was delivered in a house-to-house canvass throughout the
district, as well as at patriotic meetings, and the woman's poster
was in great demand, especially for use in schools. The head of
the public schools in St. Louis said that of all the posters, the women's
poster was the best to use, as it told a story, the names of the battles
having great historic value.
In January a meeting of men and women State chairmen in the
eighth district was called in St. Louis by Mr. L. B. Franklin, Federal
director of war loans, where plans of campaign and forms of security
were discussed. On March 31 a meeting was again held in St. Louis
of the men and women State chairmen of the eighth district, where
free discussion of the completed plans for the campaign took place,
all chairmen taking part. In Kentucky the men and women had
separate conferences, the Federal reserve chairman addressing the
men's conference in regard to the women's work. All other conferences in the eighth district were joint meetings of men and women;
the county ~hairmen of Mississippi and Tennessee at Memphis, of
Arkansas in Little Rock, of Missouri and southern Illinois in St.
Louis, of Indiana in Evansville. The reserve chairman for women
attended each of these conferences and fl,ddressed the meeting.
Mrs. Solon Jacobs represented the National Woman's Liberty Loan

Committee at the Missouri meeting, and Miss Mary Synon at the
woman's conference in Kentucky.
In addition to the publicity agent working for the reserve chairman, each State chairman had her own publicity chairman; the
result was that the woman's committee was featured daily during
the campaign. The playlet originating in the seventh district was
used all over the eighth district with great success. School children
wrote essays on the Victory loan, and German helmets were offered
by the reserve chairman as prizes. One of the stunts originated
by the reserve chairman for women was as follows: Aeroplanes were
used all over the district and created great interest by dropping
literature, among which was an order for a German helmet, so that
everyone read the literature hoping they might find tucked away in
it somewhere the order, and thus gain for themselves the coveted
prize.
In many counties in the eighth district where the banks took over
the entire quota, the women have pledged themselves to resell the
notes as soon as crops a.re in.
Previous to the fifth campaign, Mrs. Benoist had been State
chairman of Missouri. On the retirement of Miss Wa.de from the
Federal reserve chairmanship, Mrs. Benoist took her place. Her
familiarity with the local Missouri conditions made her of unusual
value to the State chairman there, and she was of great inspiration
to the women working for the loan throughout the district.

NINTH FEDERAL RESERVE DISTIDCT.
(Minnesota; South Dakota; Montana; North Dakota; Mlchlpn, 15 counties; Wisconsin, 26 counties.)
Mrs. C. A.
SEVERANCE,
1512 Merchants Bank Building,
St.
Paul, Minn., Federal
Reserve Chairman for Women.
In preparation for the Victory loan in the ninth district~ the women
held 123 special meetings. A conference was held in Minneapolis
for the men and women county chairmen of Michigan, Wisconsin,
North and South Dakota, and Montana, who came together to hear
the Secretary of the Treasury speak. They were also addressed by
Mr. Rogers, Federal director of loans in the ninth district, and the
Federal reserve chairman for women.

In preceding loans in the ninth district State meetings were held,
but owing to the vast distances to be covered it was decided in
preparation for the :fifth loan to hold group and county meetings,
and in this way reach more of the town and country workers. These
meetings were, for the most part, men's and wpmen's gatherings,
with speakers divided between the two committees. The Federal
reserve chairman for women covered all of these meetings in spite
of the great difficulties in transportation in some of the States in
her district. Her presence, enthusiasm, and unflagging support of
the State chairmen brought to them an inspiration which carried
them through many difficulties.
The ninth district was orga~ed entirely on the allotment system.
No bonds whatever were sold by solicitation; it was therefore decided
that the women should receive a credit of 25 per cent of the money
subscribed. The men of the executive committee say that this does
not represent the work the women have done in their district, but
the women are satisfied that it is about the per cent which they
would have raised. We quote from the last paragraph of Mrs. Severance's report:
In closing this work we wish to say that we feel we have received much more than
we have given. The thrill and value of the large meetings, the warm new acquaintance!! and friendships, the unification of town and country in a common purpose are
some of the valuirble products of these activities. We have achieved democracy.
We have learned the value of cooperation. We have made ourselves into a. reservoir
of force which, intact, can turn the machinery of each county. We have made ourselves into a telegraph system connecting Washington with each remote farmhouse.
We have learned to work with men, with manly and businesslike methods. We
have learned to expect an adequate return for our labor. We have achieved a. world
vision. We see this money gathered in small a.mounts from scattered farms and
hamlets growing in God's hands into the determining power of peace and freedom
to a war-weary and chaotic world.

spoke at conferences in Arizona, California, Nevada, and Idaho, and
during the campaign went- to Washington, Utah, and Oregon to
speak at various Victory loan meetings. The States of Oregon and
Washington held joint conferences of the men's and women's committees, but as the Federal reserve chairman for women spoke in
San Francisco at the California conference, which was held on the
5ame day, she was unable to attend these conferences. In Nevada.
.and Arizona the men's committee did not call conferences, but the
women did, and the Federal reserve chairman attended these conferences and spoke. Mrs. George Bass attended the conferences in
California and Arizona, representing the National Woman's Liberty
Loan Committee.
The Federal reserve chairman for ·women was able to contribute
greatly to the success of the Victory campaign in California, as the
State chairman, Mrs. Brainerd, lived in Los Angeles, in the extreme
southern end of the State, and as Mrs. Baldwin, at San Francisco, the
extreme northern end, made her office a center for the work in that end
of the State. An interesting feature of her work was the courage
and initiative she showed in surmounting difficulties of transportation
and distance to be covered. She undertook the routing of speakers
through States which took days to cross, and saw to it that the
entire district was furnished with literature and "publicity stunts"
of various kinds.

State conferences of men and women chairmen were held at Montgomery and Birmingham and a woman's conference later at Birmingham. Mrs. McNeel attended these conferences. Mrs. Jacobs and
Mrs. Fairbank also attended, representing the national committee.
The executive committee of the sixth Federal reserve district.
advised that the men and women work on a 50-50 basis, and in some·
counties this was done, but the Alabama woman's committee kept
the accurate account requested by the National Woman's Liberty
Loan Committee.
Committee meetings were held by the woman's committee, and
especial attention was given to publicity, the newspapers of the State
giving splendid inspiration.
GLEANINGS FROM THE CAMPAIGN.
It is impossible for the city rhairman of Birmingham to give a
separate report. No quota was made for Birmingham or any other
.Alabama city separate from its county. As well as could be estimated on a percentage basis, between city and county chairmen of
Birmingham and Jefferson County, Mrs. Ledbetter, the city chairman,
raised $2,208,500, and Mrs. Conrad H. Ohme, county chairman, raised
Sl,291,500. In the county of Jefferson, where Birmingham is located,
the men and women worked on a 50-50 basis.
A house-to-house canvass ,•1ras conducted by the woman's committee.

The!State!quota for Alabama in the Victory loan was 25 per cent
less than in the fourth loan. In spite of this the woman's committee
raised $82,350 more than in the fourth loan, thus increasing their per

Bonds were sold by general solicitation. The copper mining companies took practically no share of this loan. Many of the mines were
closed down and all operating had greatly reduced prices. In previous
campaigns these corporations were generous subscribers and thousands of mining employees bought to a man. Realizing this unfavorable condition, the woman's committee directed its energies in every
county to strengthening the weakest places, looking after the smaller
and out-of-the-way places where often the men's committee effected
no organization whatever. Women also paid particular attention to
propaganda work with a view to keeping up interest and enthusiasm,
and to their painstaking, unceasing work is due, in large amount, the
1uccess of the Victory loans in Arizona.
A conference for county chairmen of the Woman's Liberty Loan
Committee held in Phoenix was attended by Mrs. George Bass, representing the National Woman's Liberty Loan Committee, and Mrs.
A. S. Baldwin, Federal reserve chairman for women.

GLEANINGS FROM THE CAMPAIGN.
The chairman of Rio Blanco County aroused her town to fever
heat with an unusual stunt. The night before the drive opened
1:1he arose in the dark to scatter footprints, made from cardboard,
over the town. These steps were directed toward the bank and
were painted bright red. Added to this, she put up signs urging
everyone to "hit the trail" and, when morning came, they did as
advised and the district was one of the first in the State to report
one-half their quota raised. The largest subscription in that county
was taken by a woman.
Bent County reported her quota raised by "hard work and persuasion." A Logan County woman walked 10 miles to procure
one $50 subscription. In Moffat County, a county of vast mileage,
the women conducted "ranch-to-ranch soliciting."
There were many difficulties to confront, but the Lake County
women were not daunted because there was a complete walkout of
all of the miners, upon whom they were depending to buy bonds.
They started their drive April 21, as planned. Later a compromise

was effected with the miners, but through it. all the women continued their work and, the men now say, broke the ice for them, and,
besides breaking the ice, the women took· $77,350 in subscriptions,
and sold to 305 out of the 990 subscribers in the county.
It was the pleasure of the State chairman of the Woman's Liberty
Loan Committee to christen the 14,200-pound baby tank, Lit~e

'' From the shores of Italy to a little village in Kent County came a youth brimful of
healthy patriotism for the land of his adoption. Though an unnaturalized citizen, he
enlisted, crossed the seas to fight for "America, the grandest country in the world,"
and invested all his earnings, a thousand dollars, in Liberty bonds. A kind fate led him
safely through the conflict and returned him to his old father, who awaited him here.
At the time of the fifth loan, a member of the woman's committee, encountering him
tilling his cabbage, asked him to speak for the loan. "I speak? But, yes, I do anything to help my country." He was scheduled to speak at a town 15 miles from his,
home. Through some mishap he missed his train, walked the 15 miles, made his simple, direct appeal to the people, finishing the job by announcing he had invested his
latest earnings, a sum of $500 in Victory bonds. The town where this meeting was.
held oversubscribed its quota by $25,000."-From State chairma.n's report.

getting in crops and turned the entire campajgn over to the woman's
committee.

committee in several counties. Floats were prepared showing the
difference between America and the devastated par.ts of France and

which were collected together, thus freeing their mothers.

GLEANINGS FROM THE CAMPAIGN.
One of the outstanding features of the Victory Liberty loan in
Chicago was the forum and theater on Michigan Avenue. Daily
performances were given, the vaudeville and theatrical numbers
being in charge of a special service squad, which was made up of
young women who gave their entire time to this work.
The Chicago campaign opened with a breakfast at the Hotel
La Salle at 7 o'clock on the morning of April 21. Two hundred and
fifty women working on the trades committee were present, and after
a Liberty loan rally marched with a l,)and through the retail district
of Chicago, for which the woman's committee had entire responsibility.
A Victory cake containing medals made from German cannon was
cut by a naval officer. The organizations receiving the medals
counted them as mascots.
From the beginning of the drive the woman's organization of
Chicago and Cook County worked with the men. During the last
week all restrictions were removed, and the women workers were
permitted to take subscriptions wherever possible.
The quota for the Twenty-first Ward of Chicago was $4,500,000,
but at the first meeting of the ward organization they volunteered
to raise their quota to $5,000,000. It is believed that this makes the
ward record of the country, but as it has proved impossible to get
complete information from other cities, actual proof is lacking.
Easter Sunday afternoon the workers of the Twenty-first Ward
marched up the Lake Shore Drive in a parade from the Chicago River
to the Lincoln statute in Lincoln Park, where a negro chorus sang,
and speeches were made by Mr. Harold F. McCormick, ward chairman of the men's committee, Mrs. Kellogg Fairbank, National
Woman's Liberty Loan Committee, and ex-.Gov. Burnquist of
Minnesota.

Owing to the fact that the State of Iowa adopted the allotment
and voluntary plan women did not sell bonds, but confined themselves entirely to educational and clerical work. In accordance
with the plans made by the executive committee of the Seventh
Federal Reserve Liberty Loan Campaign Committee the women
were given credit for 50 per cent of all subscriptions where the
allotment plan was used.
A joint conference of men and women was held in Chicago, March
21, of the entire seventh Federal reserve committee, and also a

women were present. Mrs. George Bass represented the National
Woman's Liberty Loan Committee.
GLEANINGS FROM THE CAMPAIGN,
* * * On the whole, we are proud of Iowa's record in all the loans and can not
praise the women too much, who worked throughout the two years faithfully, intelligently, and untiringly, and only regretted that they could not go out and sell bonds, ·
as they did in so many of the Statee, and make areal selling record. However, they
did put on a splendid educational program, which was necessary in order to keep
patriotism alive to counteract what resentment might naturally develop from the
coercion incident to the allotment plan. This they did nobly.-State Chairman
for Women.
A committee of women speakers accompanied the war spepial
train as it toured Iowa.
The work of the Americanization committee proved so successful,
as evidenced by many letters and reports which reached the State
office, that it is evident the foundation has been laid for future work
and that this is a rich field for women's activities-the making of
Americans out of our immigrant women and children.
Where the voluntary plan was used women assisted the men at
all the selling precincts, usually being in equal numbers.
* :I< * The work of women under the volunteer plan was difficult on account
of its indefiniteness, since in every case the women were instructed to do every possible
sort of educational work but to hold themselves ready after that was done to work on
short notice. This drew them in the various counties into the most diverse sorts of
undertakings. They did everything, carrying their share of the selling efforts,
making the complete card indices, doing clerical. work, furnishing speakers for all
gatherings of any sort, finding transportation for men speakers in some cases, int.erviewii).g special cases, and generally making themselves useful. Through all this
diversity of activity, sometimes of inactivity, they mostly kept sweet, and they have
learned much about organization and putting over community campaigns.-Field
Dvector Jor Women.
The little play "Lest We Forget" was put on in nearly every
county, not once but many times, often in every township, and
gave splendid satisfaction. Two helmets were a.warded by the
woman's committee in every county for the best four-minute talk
or the best essay by a school child on "Why We Should Buy Victory
Bonds." In one county alone 1,000 essays were written, and the
final award was made to the best two in the county.

GLEANINGS FROM 'fHE CAMPAIGN.
Letter to men's State chairman from man chairman, Thomas
County, Kansas:
* * * The campaign baa been conducted entirely on voluntary subscriptions.
We have used no solicitors at all. It was the publicity at the start and throughout
the campaign that sold the bonds.
The woman's section of the Liberty loan committee had charge of the publicity.
No one can take credit for selling all the bonds, but it seems to me that, due to the
fact that the women have had charge of the publicity and that it was through this means
that the bonds were sold in Thomas County, they should have credit for this coun.ty's
quota.
I therefore suggest that in the report in this matter that the women of Thomas
County be given the entire credit for the sales of bonds in the Victory Liberty loan
campaign.

effort for placing the last of our war loans.
Strong educational campaigns were put on throughout the State, which were managed almost entirely by the woman's committee. and in a few of the counties they
also did much of the solicitation. A percentage basis of report had been agreed upon
between the men's and women's committees before the opening of the loan, which it
waa endeavored to have represent the result of the women's work, and varied in the
counties from 10 to 100 per cent.
One outstanding feature of this loan was the speaking done by returned soldiers.
organized into bands by the women. which, in some districts, greatly influenced the
result of the campaign, as subscriptions at the banks noticeably increaaed the days

Excepting the fact of the oversubscription in the State, there baa been nothing
more gratifying than the harmony with which the men's and women's committees
have cooperated.
The women lay down this work feeling that it has truly been a privilege to be allowed
to do our share in financin~ the great World War.-State, Chairman, Woman's Liberty
Loan Committee.

In practically all counties the volunteer system was adopted, which
resulted satisfactorily, but lessened the number of bonds actually sold
by women. They were, in a sense, gleaners in the field, adopting a
follow-up system that proved unexpectedly fortunate:
There was no uniform plan agreed upon as t_o the percentage
offered by the men's committee to the women in recognition of their
work. It was a go-as-you-please camp~igh, with individual methods
in each county, but with excellent team work and harmony, and in
most instances, full credit being given where it was due.

GLEANINGS FROM THE CAMPAIGN.
AB the men's and women's organizations throughout the State were so completely
,coordinated that they worked entirely as a joint committee, it is not possible to give
a detailed account of the separate and special work of the women. It is a joy to report that the women planned their work with the men, doing those things which
they were logically or individually best qualified to do in their respective communi·
ties. In Detroit the woman's committee had charge of the sales at the Liberty Forum
down-town booths, shared in work of the schools and theaters.-Extract from State
Report.
Mrs. Caroline C. Brink, vice chairman of all previous loans, retained
her same position for the Victory loan and took under her supervision twenty-three counties in western Michigan, with an organizer
working directly under her.
All State conferences were joint conferences of the men's and
women's organizations and were presided over jointly by the director of sales for Michigan and the State chairman of the Woman's
Liberty Loan Committee. With very few exceptions this policy
prevailed in the counties also. In all counties, whether upon the
volunteer or subscription plan, the women were credited with 50
per cent of iihe sales, except in Detroit, where their sales amounted
to $27,743,900, about 33½ per cent of the total amount.
Twenty-four nationalities were reached by the woman's foreignlanguage division through night schools, public pageantries, and
distribution of literature.
The woman's publicity department operated from State headquarters, sending out daily to county chairmen inspirational letters
and type matter to be used in the county papers.
Michigan used the allotment volunteer plan entirely, with the exception of four counties; therefore an educational-campaign with publicity features preceded the opening of the official one. The schools,
as usual, did their full share, except where the Easter vacation interfered, by staging contests in essays and speaking. The little playlet,
"Lest We Forget," was put on so many times and in so many places
that it is not possible to be accurate in this report, but conservatively estimated about 300 times.
Special mention should be made of the women who acted as district organizers, for much of the success of the c'ampaign is due to
their intelligent and untiring devotion and effort. Toward the end
of the campaign these women were sent into the backward counties,
and the testimony of the men brings the inspiring confirmation of
the fact that the women saved the day. In one county the woman
organizer unaided by any man organizer pushed the county over

at the last minute. In another, one who as a speaker is equaled by
few so inspired the entire committee that they requested the county
chairmen of the woman's organization to try to sell bonds where
men had failed, and she did it with almost 100 per cent result.

GLEANINGS FROM THE OAMPAIGN.
In Detroit a conspicuous appeal was made through the cooperation of the recreation commission, which presented a symbolic
pageant and beautiful tableaux in which the foreign born participated. This was staged at Detroit's Liberty Forum, in the open in
Cadillac Square, with the usual city ·crowd of thousands massed
back of the ropes as spectators.
The city of Detroit subscribed its quota the first day of the Victory
loan, but Mrs. G. E. Allen, State chairman, telegraphed the national
committee that her organization was working as hard as if the quota
had not been reached and would not cease from work until every
man and woman had a chance to subscribe for bonds.

GLEANINGS FROM THE CAMPAIGN.
Mrs. Archibald MacLaren, State chairman, zoned the State for the
woman's organization and held county conferences that broughther
in touch with every county chairman in the State before the loan,
making it possible to overcome the great distances in Minnesota.
"Keep the Loan Fires Burning" was the slogan adopted for the
Victory Liberty loan by the women of the Minneapolis Federal
reserve district, of which Mrs. C. A. Severance is chairman. Mrs.

Severance went into every State in the district and, with the State
chairman, attended zone conferences of the counties, declaring that
while men might appeal to the commercial spirit, women would
appeal to the patriotic spirit of the citizens of the district in campaigning for the loan. Two weeks before the loan opened the
woman's organization had been perfected, although because of snow
and bad roads the difficulties had been great. Some of the women
had to travel by ox team to do their campaigning. Several Indian
women on the many reservations of the district were interested
in the loan, and many of the reservations averaged a $40-per-capita
subscription.
Throughout the country districts the women have organized
speakers and publicity bureaus; h·ave tried in many counties to
reach every farmer's home through a house-to-house information
campaign, and have had the children taught in the schools the value
of the loan to every true American.
Many large and enthusiastic meetings have been held, often
attended by both men and women. Sometimes speakers were sent
from our central speakers' bureau, but more often the local women
took entire charge of the program, accomplishing wonderful results
and a full attendance in spite of heavy spring rains and muddy roads
which rendered motor cars almost useless.
Mrs. Antoinette Funk spoke in Minnesota during the campaign,

county the women sold 80 per cent and in another 75 per cent, but
in nearly all the counties the men allowed the women a percentage
over their actual sales for the work they did in advertising, publicity,
distribution of literature, clerical work, etc., work which all led up
to the sale of notes.
On April 10 the Missouri meeting of men and women county
chairmen was held in St. Louis. This was a large meeting, and most
enthusiastic. It was attended by Mrs. Solon Jacobs, representing
the National Woman's Liberty Loan Committee, and Mrs. Theodore
Benoist, Federal reserve chairman for women. Mr. Compton, of
the eighth Federal reserve district organization announced in his
address that if there was any doubt about the men being able to put
the eighth district over in the Victory loan, not to be downhearted,
as he was quite sure that the women could do it without any assistance from the men.
Mrs. Antoinette Funk spoke in Missouri during the campaign,

The work in each county was adjusted to local needs. The
woman's committee was credited with 50 per cent of the total sales.
The farmers were busy preparing their lands for new crops, and,
while the early summer crops promised well, they were still subject
to the hazard of uncertain weather conditions. The business men
and factory workers "'ere harassed by the shortage of labor and the
urgent necessity to put the war and all that pertained to it behind
them as quickly as possible. The State chairman found it necessary
to pursue with unswerving perseverance a policy of reanimation and
reeducation to the necessities of the hour.

In the fifth loan the women of Nebraska were much more
thoroughly organized than the men. In some counties the women
did practically all of the work in selling the notes. The weather
was very inclement, and the roads almost impassable when the
campaign was on. In some parts of the State the workers were
obliged to use the mail service almost exclusively, as telegraph and
telephone wires were down for days at a time. In every county
where it was possible e. house-to-house survey was made by women
workers, and has been reported to have helped greatly in many cases.
GLEANINGS FROM THE CAMPAIGN.
In Keyapaha County the county chairman of the woman's committee lives at the county seat, which is 25 miles from a railroad.
The county has but 3,700 population, and more than 200 of the men
of that number were in service during the war. The women at
home backed the men at all times, even to going into the fields and
taking care of the crops, doing heavy manual labor such as they had
never done before. The woman county chairman canvassed the
entire county thoroughly, often on foot.

as captains; 500,000 pieces were distributed.
GLEANINGS FROM THE CAMPAIGN.
Two thousand women marched in the Victory parade in Omaha,
preceding a theater meeting for the loan and beginning the drive
for that city.
In Omaha the women canvassers for the Victory loan used the

Revere and spread the immediate messages of the loan during the
drive from house to house.
The National League of Woman's Service, Omaha branch, reopened

GLEANINGS FROM THE CAMPAIGN.
In the final week of the campaign, in response to an appeal of the
Secretary of the Treasury, a special effort was made to secure subscriptions. A poster was issued, reading "Women of New Hampshire,
Dare You Break Faith with Those Who Die in Flanders Fields 1"
This was displayed in street cars, windows, public buildings, etc.,
and many bond sales were directly traceable to it.
The campaign was marked throughout the State by many public
meetings and exhibitions of that specially arranged film, "The Price
of Peace." Campaign programs were prepared by each town to
meet local conditions. During none of the four previous loans
have so many public meetings been held throughout the State. The
State chairman attended and spoke at many of these r~llies.

A conference of women county chairmen was held at Newark. It
was attended by Mrs. John T. Pratt, Federal reserve chairman for
. women, and Mrs. Antoinette Funk and Mrs. Kellogg Fairbank, representing the National Woman's Liberty ;Loan Committee
GLEANINGS FROM THE CAMPAIGN.
The activities of the women workers did not vary greatly from
those of former loans. They consisted largely in general propaganda,
house-to-house canvassing, patient revisiting of possible subscribers,
and untiring willingness persistently to pursue small subscriptions,
care of headquarters, arrangements for meetings, and arousing the
interest of children in the schools. The closing down of many shipyards and munition plants and of numerous other war industries in
New Jersey, and the restlessness among a large part of our foreignborn population, made it impossible to sell the same number of small
bonds as in the fourth loan. The large number reported, therefore,
I?ecomes a testimony to the faithfulness and efficiency of the workers.
In one town, it was found that on the last day the quota had not
been reached, and the women then recanvassed the town, selling
many bonds at the post office and the railroad station, and at the
end of the day that town had gone over the top.
Through the efforts of Miss Frances Helen Kelly, of Jersey City,
subscriptions to the Victory loan in the sum of $755,601 were secured.
Miss Kelly rode the good horse "Thrift" all over the State, dressed
in military uniform, and participated in various drives for war funds
during a period of eight months, securing through her efforts $3,105,210 in all.

GLEANINGS FROM THE CAMPAIGN.
Because the spirit of patriotism had waned to some extent, and the people did not
see the nec8!Bity of this loan as they had the others, it ma.de it harder to get them to
work. Thie after-the-war spirit, coupled with the financial conditions brought on by
the hardest winter ever experienced in this State, made the work of raising this last
loan vastly harder than ever before. We had suffered a three-year drought, and then
this winter the severe and continued snows made every cattle and sheep man lose
heavily, and many went broke. All are running on borrowed money. In the previous
loans many people had bought, and to do so had sacrificed to the point of actual want,
and this time they did not see the nec8!Bity of going that far. In this State a great
part of those who buy bonds borrow money at 12 per cent to pay for them, so it is not a
question of a good investment, but is an act of pure pa.triotism.-Excerpt from State
chairman's report.
The State chairman of the Woman's Liberty Loan Committee
visited every county in New Mexico.
In Chaves County the women took over the campaign for one week,
and at the close they had been so successful that the men turned the
entire campaign over to them, and the women put the county over
the top.
Two of the county chairmen in counties tha~ are thinly settled
reported that they could not secure enough women to make a canvass,
so had appointed some men, and the State chairman was very glad
to have them, and to send them each a medal.

GLEANINGS FROM 'l'HE CAMPAIGN.
New Mexico had a problem almost peculiarly its own in its number
of Spanish-speaking citizens to be interested in the loans, and it was
largely due to the work of the Woman's Liberty Loan Committee in
printing and distributing loan pamphlets in Spanish that these thousands of bond buyers were interested.
The "Price of Peace" films were shown in the principal towns in
the 10 counties and the tanks stopped at Las Vegas, Clayton, and
Santa Fe. Great demonstrations were prepared for their reception.
Special recognition should be given for the splendid results accomplished in Mora and San Juan Counties. Mrs. Charles R. K~yes, the
new chairman of. West Mora County, sold 214 per cent of the quota
assigned to the county. This is the highest percentage of sales
reported for any county in the tenth district.

GLEANINGS FROM THE CAMPAIGN,
More than 200 women responded to the first call from the Woman's
Speakers' Bureau in New York State. Nearly all of them had seen
service overseas. Under the direction of the bureau they took up
a course of study to acquaint them with facts pertaining to the loan,
the sentiments to which appeal might be made, and the best methods

GLEANINGS FROM THE OAMPAIGN,
The New York City publicity department of the Woman's Liberty
Loan Committee evolved the plan of asking the chairmen to form
Victory loan camera clubs to take kodak pictures of human interest
for newspaper features. The department also started a communityhouse endowment of the Victory loan notes.
One hundred and fifty thousand women of the women's clubs of
Greater New York organized a working unit for the Victory loan,
establishing headquarters in the Hotal Astor. Three hundred and
seventy-nine clubs were represented, 333 of them affiliated with the
State Federation of Women's Clubs. It was expected that they
would raise 100 per cent of their quota. They raised, in fact, the
largest percentage of quota in the New York district, securing over
$13,000,000 on a quota of $450,000.
Among those who talked to the crowds through the long-distance
telephone arrangement from Washington were Mrs. Carter Glass,
Mrs. Newton D. Baker, Mrs. Larz Anderson, and Miss Clara D.
Noyes, chairman of the nursing-service bureau of the Red Cross.
One doughnut, fried on the steps of the New York Sub treasury
by Irene and Gladys McIntyre, the famous Salvation Army sisters,
sold $25,000 worth of Victory bonds.

GLEANINGS FROM THE CAMPAIGN.
A county chairman went into a farmhouse in one of the western counties, with
small hopes of selling a bond. She played with the baby, admired the crops, and
began to tell them just why they should buy bonds. When she had talked herself
breathless, the old grandmother said, "Hold on a minute, Miss. How much did you
say I could pay down on a bond of $250?" When she told her, the old woman said,
"Pa, go bring the pill box out of the trunk." Pa did so. The old lady paid the
initial payment on $250 in dimes out of the pill box, and said she would pay cash
as soon as she could "get to town." The money she had was the savings of a lifetime, from her little girlhood to her old womanhood.-Extractfrom report.

of the cities.
Meetings were held in the rural districts, with good speakers and
leaders of community singing furnishing programs.
Much interest was aroused by the work the woman's committee
did through the schools, as a result of which the children wrote ·essays
and poems and made artistic posters to boost the bond sale.
Many Indian women have bought bonds liberally. On an Indian
reservation the women averaged $40 per capita.

and Mrs. Guilford Dudley at Cleveland and Toledo. Mrs. Frank
Mulhauser, Federal reserve chairman for women, attended all conferences.
Mrs . .Antoinette Funk spoke in the State during the campaign,
representing the national committee.
GLEANINGS FROM THE CAMPAIGN.
As you will see * * * in some cases the women sold half the quota. In one
township where the women 11.ad keen competition from the men, the workers throughout the first week reported $35,000 in oii.e day, where the men worked six days in a
free field, their average sales being $20,000. Another case w1lere the women were
making a fine record, the men requested that they be taken out of the field for a
given time, in order that they could make a better showing. I quote these two inetances; there are many others of the same character, which would be too lengthy to
relate.-Extract from report.
In the Cincinnati area 20 out of 25 districts the woman's committee did house-to-house solicitation. In the remaining five (which
include the business district) they did clerical and special work. In
this area the result of the fifth campaign has been an increase of 50
per cent for the woman's committee over the fourth campaign.

A large part of the propaganda and educational work was left to
the woman's committee in Oklahoma. The counties were organized
in a systematic way by their patriotic chairmen, and the work was
soon accomplished. In the greater part of the State the campaign
was carried on as in the former campaigns, each county being given
its quota, and, in turn, each district its quota, and all responded
as quickly as during the active war period.
No report was made when the quota was taken by the banks; in
that case the women worked in every way possible, but actually
sold no bonds and no credit was taken for the work done.

She volunteered to the chairman of the Woman's Liberty Loan Committee to aid in raising the town's quota of loans. Later, when the
news came of her son's death in action, she worked early and late,
for besides selling bonds she picked cotton and raised a hog to buy
two Liberty bonds.

A conference of men and women county chairmen was held March
28 and 29. Mrs. Baldwin attended it, representing the national
committee.
In Oregon nothing ha.s so developed the capacity of women as the part they have
taken in the Liberty loan drives. This is especially so of a. large group of women who
never before had taken part in any organized effort for any cause or any public work.
They have been given an insight into the conduct of the financing of the Government,
and above all, there has been developed in them a sense of responsibility toward
matters which up to this time had been entirely foreign to them.-Extractfrom Stau
chairman's report.

GLEANINGS FROM THE CAMPAIGN.
The woman's committee began their speaking campaign early in
April. It was thoroughly organized and carried out with great
success. .An evening meeting was arranged at nearly every school
building throughout the city. .An attractive program was arranged,
the community was invited through the school children of each
district, and a returned soldier and a civilian speaker addressed each
group. From 100 to 500 people attended each meeting. · Besides
these evening meetings, afternoon meetings were arranged for the
parent-teachers' associations. Every woman's organization in the
city of any size was addressed by a Liberty loan speaker. .Arrangements were made with the granges throughout the State to give·
time on their .April programs for a speaker on bonds. .About 200
meetings were thus arranged, and approximately 50,000 people
reached in this way .
.At the beginning of the campaign the publicity bureau of the
men's organization was put at the disposal of the woman's committee, and throughout the campaign they could not have asked forbetter publicity than was given their work. They had a publicity
chairman and each day sent to press headquarters, both city and
State, whatever they had to give out for the day. When occasion
demanded, the woman's committee was given part of the great
display ads which were a feature of the men's publicity work.
In summing up I should say that it is the best campaign we have had a part in.
There were no handicaps; nothing that we felt made our work less efficient. It
increased what has been growing since the women of Oregon began work of this nature;.
that is, the respect that the men have come to have for women's work, their realization
of the need for cooperation, their willingness to let women share work of this kind,
and the feeling they have that a movement of this kind is benefited by the cooperation
of the work of men and women. The greatest result, of course, from work of this kind
is the effect on the women themselves, their greater sense of responsibility, their
greater knowledge of financial affairs, and their broader outlook.-Extractfrom report

In Portland every effort was made to have the wo:m.an's organization in such shape that it would be ready for whatever arose. The
wisdom .of this was fully proven by later developments. To the
2,000 workers of the Fourth loan publicity matter concerning the
new loan, the need of their services, and an appeal for their cooperation were sent out together with a return postal card in the form of
a questionnaire. From these return pledges for service were made
oard catalogues, arranged both alphabetically and by precincts.
Thus was the woman's committee ready either to supply hundreds
of women workers for the use of the men's organization or put an
organized force into the field themselves if separate districts were
assigned to them.
In this city where more than half of the State subscriptions are
raised, the men's organization had been allowed to lapse after the
fourth loan. It was not until 10 days before the opening of the
campaign drive that they began to form their plans. Three days
before the opening of the drive, the woman's committee were asked
to take over the entire management of 260 precincts out of the entire
300 in the city, including many industrial plants and business houses.
Even putting into motion so large an organization on such short
notice seemed a tremendous task. A house-to-house canvass was
made, including such industrial plans and business concerns as were
included in our territory. Not only did we cover the entire territory
assigned to us, but brought in almost double the amount in subscriptions which we had been asked to secure from the territory given us.
To the woman's committee fell 50 per cent of the total subscriptions
taken in the city.

last three or four days the counties were almost solely dependent
upon the women. The men in only one county offered the women
a percentage; that was 50 per cent. In one or two other counties a
portion of certain industrials was given to the women.
Mrs. Miller says in regard to the women workers of her State (there
were 100,000 working in the Victory loan): "The women of Pennsylvania have shown a steady development. 'both in organization and
in the technique of bond selling through the four loans in which they
have been actively engaged in Pennsylvania. Their appreciation, in
almost every county, of the value of publicity and of -closely coordinated teamwork has been remarkable. I would feel that it would
not be overestimating the condition to say that they have furnished
nine-tenths of the publicity for the loans in which they have taken
an active part. Practically every county in the State has had a
large women's parade during the course of the loan. They have held
innumerable meetings, with both men and women speakers, and in
many townships and boroughs they have had entire handling of
the loan, the men's committee turning over the responsibility and
power to them."
Mrs. Funk and Mrs. Fairbank spoke in Pennsylvania during the
campaign, representing the national committee.
GLEANINGS FROM THE CAMPAIGN.
We have remarkable totals for the Victory loan, better than any previous campaign-in fact the women secured every individual subscriP.tion turned in. Every
township was organized with strong teams of 10 or more wome; for an actual house-tohouse and farm-to-farm canvass.
No one escaped the women solicitors; as many as eight trips were made to one home
before one solicitor "caught" a certain man. Our organization was perfect, all township chairmen sending in perfect report cards and solicitor's papers. We used a
house-to-house record report for every township, each solicitor having a definite
·territory. I am inclosing one of the solicitor's reports to show you how perfectly
they were kept.
We also had a team of bank solicitors for every bank in the county. These women
worked in relays-from 9 to 3 every day during the loan-and had a decorated booth
in each bank. This committee did splendid work, catching the people who refused
to subscribe from the house-to-house solicitor. So many people say "I will subscribe
at the bank," not caring to make arrangements or payments to a solicitor. We actually
secured every subscription except the Pennsylvania Railroad employees, a few
miners, and the men employed at the paper mill and tannery. There was no chap.ca
of getting the Pennsylvania Railroad men-their slips were handled by the company,
which was also the case with the paper mill and tannery-the companies buying the
bonds for the men and deducting so much from their wages every pay day.
You will see by the inclosed table the remarkable totals that were secured by the
woman's committee. Mr. Quigley in making a final report to the Federal reserve in
Philadelphia wrote them that Clinton County's Victory loan was raised by the
woman's committee. Mr. Quigley had to be in Harrisburg three or four days a
week, so the burden of the whole campaign actually fell on me.

GLEANINGS FROM THE CAMPAIGN.
The city was divided into districts. For several weeks prior to the
opening of the campaign joint meetings of the men's and women's
committees were held to plan methods of promoting the success of
the loan. As a result of these conferenc~s it was decided that the
men's and women's committees should occupy joint headquarters
throughout the city, that a Liberty statue should be erected in
each district, to be used as the main booth of the woman's committee. Meetings were held here with speakers·, singers, and naval and
military features. The main booth had a colossal Victory statue, and
every day between 12 and 2 the streets before it were roped off and
traffic diverted, so that the space could be used for the daily meetings.
Opening-day exercise were held in each district, the women chairman
being chosen to unveil the statute in each instance.
In the central city district, one of the greatest successes was called
"Camac Street, the Biggest Little Street in the World," which
covered two squares. This was under the direction of the artists,
with Mrs. Charles R. Wood representing the central city district.
The committee was assisted by well-known poster artists, etchers,
and portrait painters, who did posters, portraits, and etchings, which
were sold by auction to the highest bidder, the ·proceeds going for
bonds. Portrait painters volunteered to paint a portrait of anyonebuying a Victory bond for $10,000 and up. In the evening, dinners
were served in the different art clubs, followed by theatrical performances .in the street. Continuous bond selling prevailed.
The public schools were very active; the child who sold the largest
number of bonds in each school was given a German helmet.

Each loan showed a marked improvement in organization and in the work of the
women. From the first they gave themselves to the work with their whole hearts
and souls. In the Victory drive the women were largely responsible for the State
going over the top. The men had lost interes"t and there was much apathy among
them. In several counties where there was no man chairman the women put on
the drive and raised their county's quota without the assistance of the men's committee.-Extractfrom report.

GLEANINGS FROM THE CAMPAIGN.
Booths were conducted by women in all towns that were large
enough to warrant them.
Organization in the Victory loan consisted of the State chairman,
an executive committee, 7 congressional district chairmeni 46
county chairmen, township and school district chairmen in each
county. In the cities, ward chairmen for every ward, with captains
and lieutenant for every block.
Each county chairman had a publicity chairman, and in most
cases the same women who h,ad done the publicity work in previous
campaigns kept this office, and supplied State headquarters ·with
clippings and news of the activities in their counties. Many excellent features were put on. The woman's committee distributed
posters and literature and in fact did most of the publicity work
throughout the State.
House-to-house canvassing was done entirely by the women and
they made a special effort personally to reach each individual.
"The barrage is down-let's drive" was the slogan adopted by the
women's Liberty loan for the Victory loan as a result of a children's
prize slogan contest.
The women held a gold star memorial service on the last day of
the Victory loan drive by raising the Stars and Stripes, the State flag,
and a gold star flag from the roof of the State capitol dome. Mme.
Schumann-Heink led the community chorus, singing the Star-Spangled Banner as the flags were unfurled.
In two of the counties no man chairman was appointed, and the women conducted
the entire campaign. In several other counties the men's committee turned the
campaign over to the women, who most succe.~sfully put the county over the top.
Relationship with the men's committee was most cordial and cooperative. The men
had learned the value of the woman's committee and were very glad to call upon
us for assistance.
The conditions in this State at the beginning of the drive were very discouraging.
The price of cotton was low and cotton was being held. Many people were still
paying for bonds of previous issues. In the rural districts the people were obliged
to put all available ·cMh into fertilizer, and they were borrowing from the banks
besides. Many of the men of the State were very anxious to get back to normal, as
they felt their business had suffered from the many calls upon their time during the
war, and there was apathy and lack of interest among some of them.
The dirge, "The Fifth Victory Loan Will Never Be Put Over," echoed and reechoed
from one end of the State to the other. The women, however, set out with determined
hearts, inspired by the spirit of thanksgiving that 100,000 of our brave boys' lives
had been saved by the signing of the armistice, and realizing the fact that the money
asked for by the Government was to bring the boys home and pay a just and honorable
debt, they organized their forces with undaunted courage and pledged themselves
gladly, cheerfully, and thankfully to see the Victory loan through.
It is impossible to say that any one factor was responsible for the success of the
woman's committee. Three elements, however, contributed largely. First, the
untiring hard work and devoted patriotism of the women; second, the wonderful

cooperation and harmony in every branch of the organization; and third, the team.
work and hearty good-fellowship that existed between the men and the women.Extractfr<Ym State report.

GLEANINGS FROM THE CAMPAIGN,
'
In Perkins County, which is in the newer part of the State, men
and women drive 70 miles to come to a Liberty loan meeting. The
sending of the tanks into this territory was an additional incentive
to come to patriotic gatherings. In these newer parts of the country,
the readiness with which homesteaders bought bonds was inspiring.
Families whose homes had not even the barest comforts of life,
invested. The State chairman reports that one family borrowed
money at 10 per cent interest to buy bonds in the third campaign.
The chairman of the woman's committee tells a story about one
of her chairmen which characterizes the spirit of the Liberty loan
workers in that State. The chairman of Harding County traveled 75
miles by motor in a rainstorm to go on to a meeting in Deadwood with
the chairman of Meade County. There they were snowbound for
three days; went back to Meade County and there had to wait three
days more before she could go home again. The roads were in a
terrible condition when she started, and it took her more than 17
hours to travel this distance, but she thought no hardship too great
to carry the message of the Victory loan to the women of her county.
A woman worker in Alexandria was so crippled by rheumatism
that a personal canvass for the loan was impossible, so she ·devised
the scheme of sending out Victory loan literature by placing the
leaflets in egg cases.
South Dakota is exceedingly prosperous, and the opportunities
for safe investment at higher rates of interest than the Victory bonds
paid are numerous, but, nevertheless, the people were very glad to
subscribe and oversubscribe.
In Gregory County every man, woman, and child committed to
memory the "Am.erican's Creed."
The women on the loan committee are, as a rule, sorry that their work ie over, for
we all have enjoyed it. I think you may count on us whenever again in the future
the Government may have need for our services. I eha!l he very glad if the opportunity a.rises for me to work again under the same leadership.-Excerptfrom report.
The woman chairman of Potter County got out a ca.rd for every
person in her county with this inscription:
Has your wife helped to save the money you are going to invest in Victory notes?
Hasn't she said from time to time, "I will not buy this because we must save for
Liberty bond&t" Will you show your appreciation of this helpfulness by ta.king pa.rt
·
of this allotment in her name?

GLEANINGS FROM THE CAMPAIGN.
"His picture in the paper" was the incentive which inspired a
small newsboy of Nashville, Tenn., to organize the newsboys of
. the State and buy bonds of the fourth Liberty loan. He was standing
at the State publicity chairman's desk watching her write up the
Sunday news and com.pile the photographs of prominent Liberty
loan workers of the State.
He said to the chairman, "If I buy a bond can I get m.y picture
in 1" She assured him. that the purchase of a bond would produce
the desired result, and suggested that he buy one on the installment
plan. He rushed out of the office immediately, came back with $5
and a friend who also desired a kind word from. the press. When
the picture was published the small newsie became one of the most
enthusiastic loan workers in Tennessee. He aided the woman's
committee in organizing the newsboys of the State, who bought
$200,000 worth of bonds, with no individual subscription over $100.

Owing to the impassable condition of the roads in Hawkins County
during the campaign, the women made a house-to-house canvass
on horseback. Their quota of $163,900 was r.aised.
Loudon County subscribed her quota before the campaign started.
On being asked by headquarters if they needed a tank or any publicity stunts, the woman's chairman replied "We need nothing but
two German helmets as trophies; the countyis over." Their quota,
which was $121,750, was oversubscribed by $14,000.
The women of a rural district organized "butter and egg day"
sale of bqnds. They chose one day of each week during the drive,
and pledged the profits of that day's sales to the purchase of bonds.
The State publicity chairman passed on the plan to all the counties
in the division, and asked each Sunday school in the rural district
to propagandize the method. In this way thousands of dollars were
invested by the country women in the Victory loan.
The women of Greene County, with their slogan, "Every housewife
a bondholder," and their all-ladies minstrel show for a publicity feature
of the loan, proved of invaluable assistance. The quota of this
county was $234,750, and woman's Liberty loan subscriptions were
$320,ooo: Afternoon and night performances of this minstrel were
given in several districts of Greene County, selling bonds at' each
performance.

Phillips was telling of one of her best workers, a county chairman,
who had just received news that her son had been killed in battle,
saying, of course, she could not ask her to take part in the campaign.
Unknown to her this chairman was present, and while she was still
speaking a little woman in black at the end of the hall stood up
and said she would take part as she had always done; that if she did
not do so she would not be loyal to the cause for which her son had
died.

A joint conference of men and women county chairmen was held
at Salt Lake City on March 14.
At a meeting of county chairmen and executive committee members held previous to the campaign, it was unanimously voted to·
divide the total returns between the two committees. No hard and
fast regulations as to actual campaigning methods were recommended
to the county chairmen, it being thought best to leave them, as heretofore, to work out their individual problems, since there seemed so
great differences in local conditions to be met.
The Federal reserve chairman for women, Mrs. A. S. Baldwin, paid
Utah a visit prior to the opening of the campaign.
GLEANINGS FROM THE CAMPAIGN.
The Mormon Church placed its entire subscription to the Victory
Liberty loan through the Woman's Liberty Loan Committee in the
State of Utah. The president of the church, in making the subscription, stated to Mrs. Ferry that the work of women in the war
finance entitled them to the credit of the placing of the subscription.
GLEANINGS FROM THE SALT LAKE CITY CAMPAIGN.
The campaign opened with an air circus, three days prior to the
official opening date. A great feature was made of this; the attention of the public was thus focused upon the drive at the beginning.
The women had charge of the street activities, and opened proceedings with a vim.
Billy Sunday was one of the attractions of the campaign, and the
woman's committee took charge of the soliciting at his lecture.
The Woman's Bungalow Bank, which had proved such a successful
feature of former drives, was again used, the building being donated
as before, and erected during the night previous to the campaign
opening, upon a proininent business corner. Another street method
was solicitation from trucks loaded with wounded soldiers, accompanied by speakers and musicians, assisted by girls and women,
who worked among the crowd.
Twenty-two booths were maintained by the woman's cominittee
in stores and on streets. Total results of booth cominittee, $483,450.
The church cominittee maintained its former fine records, and was
successful in having all denoininational churches, large and small,
represented·; total, $191,100. The. Latter-Day Saints women's
organization suceeded in rolling up a total far in advance of any
previous record. This committee alone had about 800 workers in
the field; total, $352,250. The women's clubs cominittee, including
the Catholic Women's League, also outdistanced ail former records in this campaign, by bringing in a total of $139,150. The educational cominittee was equally successful, turning in $132,850, which

A complete State organization perfected in 38 counties, uniform in
all, known as "The Minute Women's Organization," has put through
all loan campaigns.
The minute woman organization of Washington was begun before
the second Liberty loan. It included organized and unorganized
women, and in its ranks were Chinese, Japanese, Negroes, and Indians.
Through this organization literature in 22 languages was distributed.
It consists of a State committee, which includes officers and auxiliary
chairmen in charge of six districts. Each county has a county
chairman and a minute woman organization. Each incorporated
town has a minute woman captain for each ward. This ward captain appoints a precinct lieutenant and the lieutenant appoints sufficient minute women to carry out a house-to-house canvass of the
precinct. Eight thousand minute women served in the Victory loan
campaign.
The woman's committee organized the schools. The children sold
bonds.
A State conference of comity chairmen of th(3 woman's committee
was held in Seattle March 28. On March 29 the men's conference
was held, to which the women were invited.
Mrs. Baldwin spoke in Washington during the campaign, representing the national committee.
GLEANINGS FROM THE CAMPAIGN.
Nearly every county held county conferences, all following very
closely the outline of the State conference, and all reporting them of
great help.
In the farming and agricultural districts the women used many
different methods of reaching the settlers; one minute woman walked
8 Iniles in a district she could not reach by horse or car.
Children's parades were held in many places and were reported the
best ever held, getting more people out than any other one feature.
At Snohomish a woman chairman was in charge of the entire
county. This was an honor in recognition of excellent work accomplished in previous campaigns.

One of the most inspiring meetings held was in the I. W:. W.
country, among the loggers at Twin Rivers. The majority of the
men, by their deep interest and enthusiastic applause, showed that
they were glad to echo the sentiment of loyalty and triumph in the
victory of the great national cause. Among these men I found an
American who had served his two years with the King's Royal
Rifles under Haig in Flanders.
There seemed to be a general feeling of pessimism throughout the
State, especially among the business men, before the loan started,
many saying the entire amount would have to be taken by the banks.
This spirit spured the women to more determined action, and never
have they entered a campaign with so much energy and vim, with
the result conditions were soon changed and the loan was put over
beautifully, county chairmen, with few exceptions, reporting it the
easiest and best of all.
The reports show a closer cooperation between the men and women; an improved
condition in the general attitude of the public toward bond buying, not a single case
of coercion being reported and only one or two places experiencing the least difficulty
whatever, most places going over in the first week and many the first day. A decided
improvement in the attitude of the general public, and men especially, toward the
value of woman's work; but even yet I do not believe the men fully acknowledge its
value. It is hard to realize what it has meant for our women to go time after time
into the homes of our citizens until a feeling of friendship and brotherhood has developed that will be of inestimable value to the community in the future as well as the
educational value to these people, many of them having learned that they could
really be bondholders and have a vital interest in our Government; only future _
generations can tell the great value of the woman's work during this war.-Extract

A State conference of the women of West Virginia was called
March 18 and 19 at the Stephenson Auditorium, Y. M. C. A., in the
city· of Charleston. When the women convened, 37 of the 49 counties
were then organized, the old chairmen generally reenlisting. Gov.
W. A. MacCorkle, men's State chairmen, was one of the distinguished
speakers. He announced that he had reappointed all of his old

county chairmen and at that time but four had reported their acceptances and that a joint conference was then impossible. He urgl"ld a
joint conference of men and women and set the date for .A.pril 4 and 5,
which invitation was accepted by Mrs. Poffenbarger for the "Woman's
Liberty Loan Committee. The State county chairmen concurred,
and the two organizations of men and women Liberty loan workers
were then pledged for equal service in putting over the loans in
West Virginia. Miss Mary Synon attended this meeting, representing the National Woman's Liberty Loan Committee.
GLEANINGS FROM THE CAMPAIGN .
.A.s a means of honoring the women workers for the loans in West
Virginia, the governor of the State, John J. Cornwell, adjourned both
houses of the legislature on March 19 to have Miss Mary Synon,
treasurer of the National Woman's Liberty Loan Committee, appear
before them as representative of the women who have labored for
the success of the Liberty loans.
In recognition of her services for the Liberty loans, as well as for
her interest in educational work in her State, the University of West
Virginia has conferred the honorary degree of doctor of laws upon
Mrs. George Poffenbarger, chairman of the woman's loan organization. The university, of which the fiftieth anniversary came during
the war, celebrated the event by the giving of the honorary degrees
to the Secretary of War, who was born in the State, to the governor
and five ex-governors, to the ambassador to Great Britain, also a
West Virginian, and to Mrs. Poffenbarger.
Mrs. William Chilton, wife of the former Senator from West Virginia, took a secretarial course in business college, graduating with
a 99.8 per cent record, in order to promote her efficiency in office
work to help in the Liberty loans.

The woman's committee organized the schools throughout· the
State.
Mrs. George Bass spoke in Wisconsin during the campaign, representing the national committee.
GLEANINGS FROM THE CAMPAIGN.
The woman's committee held meetings of groups of foreign women,
calling together -Polish, Italian, Greek, Syrian, Slovine, Serbian,
Croatian, Czec:ho-Slovak, Bohemian, and Norwegian women. The
result was that $60,450 in Victory bonds was sold by this foreign
group in Milwaukee, the Syrians having 100 per cent record, as there ·
was a bond sold in every Syrian home of the city. A platform was
erected on the steps of the Federal building in Milwaukee, with a
statue of Liberty in the background and a large American flag in
Digitized by

93
the foreground, and in front a sign which said "Americans from
- - - , " and then each day the name of a different nationality was
added.
In one village the woman chairman used a curtain in the window
of her home for a local bulletin, and whenever any Victory loan news
of interest was received it was attached to the curtain, which was
lowered, and it thus became a matter of public interest to all the people in the village.
The little play, "Lest We Forget," has been given in hundreds of
places in Wisconsin.
At a Liberty loan meeting in a Wisconsin town about 100 women
had gathered. The meeting was half over when a white-haired,
rosy-cheeked woman came in breathlessly and said she would like to
explain her tardiness. "I have two sons in the service in France,
and my youngest son and I run our good-sized farm. To-day I had
a company of silo fillers and I had to cook for them. I cooked their
dinner, put it on the table, and then came away and left them. I
hitched up my horse and I've driven 10 miles to find out how I can
sell Liberty bonds."
The organization of the Women's Liberty Loan Committee in Wi8consin was not
an easy task in the beginning, as there were naturally many difficulties to overcome
in a State where the foreign-born population is so large. It is a very great satisfaction, however, to have seen the organization grow from very small beginnings to itB
present size and to have witnessed and taken part in the arousing of the women of
Wisconsin to their responsibilities toward their country and to know that now there
is hardly a village in the State where the women have not done a loyal and valuable
service in this Liberty loan work.
The cooperation throughout· the seventh Federal reserve district of Wisconsin
between the men's and women's organizations for the Victory loan has been very
good indeed. With very few exceptions the men's and women's committees have
worked as one organization and great harmony and correspondingly good results have
obtained .-Extractsfrom State report.

In several counties of this territory the woman's committee not
only did the educational work which was supposed to be their share
but they went out and made actual sales of bonds to more than their
allotted 25 per cent.
In one county the men's committee abandoned the field and the
woman's committee finished what the men were too discouraged to
continue.
A very active educational campaign has been carried on all over
this part of Wisconsin, the work of the speakers' bureau being most
efficient. The bureau in Chippewa County reported 75 speakersalmost more than there were numbers in the audience.
There has been a meeting in almost every schoolhouse, and the
message of the necessity for the loan has been carried to every farmhouse by a personal canvass.

GLEANINGS FROM THE CAMPAIGN,
One woman bond buyer made the money by raising motherless
lambs.
Worthy of special mention is the work of a young woman, under
24 years of age, who had charge of both the men's and women's
committees in Carbon County. She put her county over the top
with a lange oversubscription.
A bird in the hand was worth two in the bush to the chairman of
the Woman's Liberty Loan Committee of Mountain View, Wyo.
At a gathering for an oyster supper at Lymon, Wyo., the chairman
recognized an opportunity and addressed the guests, firing the first
gun of the Victory loan campaign before April 21.
Another instance of the spirit of the women of the West was
related by the woman State chairman. At the beginning of the
fourth loan an old lady of 68, a member of the Liberty loan committee, was knocked down and run over by an automobile, breaking
a leg and an arm. When other members of the committee went to
the hospital to solicit bonds they found that the ambitious patient
had already sold bonds to every doctor, every nurse, and to all
visitors who approached her while she was convalescent.
The chairman of Sweetwater County, Wyo., canvassed the county
around the coal mines, where she talked "pidgeon," and was understood by men and women of 42 nationalities. She and the chairman

for Rock Springs, like other Wyoming chairmen, rode miles to get
subscriptions, broke down, encountered mud and sand, but the
Sweetwater workers are the only ones who report the distinction of
sleeping in the poorhouse in their campaign for funds.

Mrs. T. S. Taliaferro has been State chairman for all loans.
The quota for the Victory loan was about 20 per cent Jess than in
the fourth Joan. In spite of this the woman's committee raised
$188,900 more than in the fourth loan, thus increasing their per cent.
REPORT ON PRINTING AND DISTRIBUTlON FOR THE VICTORY
UBERTY LOAN.
There was a marked improvement in the distribution of material
.by the National Woman's Liberty Loan Committee for the Victory
loan campaign. An early start was made in the matter of printing,
all orders for stationery being placed with the Government Printing
Office during the month of January, and the burden on the Government Printing Office was less, due to the decreased pressure of many
war-time activities, which resulted in prompt servi~e in the printing
of Victory loan material. A third factor which contributed largely
to the prompt receipt of supplies by chairmen throughout the country
. was the relieving of the congestion in transportation which had existed
.
during the preceding campaigns.
Shipments were made as follows: The Distribution Bun~au of the
Treasury sent out all material on schedules prepared by the committee. Letterheads, envelopes, post cards, and labels were sent to
the State chairmen according to the quantity requested in questionnaires and additional orders. The literature was apportioned among
the 64 States and divisions of States on the basis ot population, size
of territory, and relative degree of organization.
The orders for stationery as given on the questionnaires sent out
to the State chairmen in January were filled during the months of
January and February. Paper patterns for the V armbands adopted
by the national committee were printed on large sheets and sent out
with instructions to the State chairmen the last week in February.
The poster designed especially for the Woman's Liberty Loan
Committee was distributed through the Federal reserve chairmen, a
suggested schedule being prepared for each district by the distribution
agent. Pledge slips were printed and sent to each district except the

sixth and ninth, where the individual allotment system was used.
Only one form of report card was printed for the use of county, city,
and State chairmen, thus effecting a considerable economy in distribution.
Special certificates of appointment for county chairmen were printed
for each of the Federal reserve districts, and carried the signature of
Carter Glass, Secretary of the Treasury, Mrs. George Bass, secretary
of the committee, and the governors of the various districts.
The literature issued by the N ationa.l Woman's Liberty Loan Committee for the Victory loan consisted of a series of eight leaflets
written by various prominent men and women and printed in uniform
size and style. These were printed and distributed during the
months of March and April, advance copies being sent. to the State
chairmen for use at their State conferences. The report of the fourth
loan was printed in Chicago, under the direction of Mrs. Kellogg
Fairbank. In addition to its own material, a supply of handbooks
for speakers was assigned by the _publicity bureau to the woman's
committee for distribution.
The total number of pieces of material sent out by the National
Woman's Liberty Loan Committee for the Victory loan amounted to
14,621,285.
