BOONE COUNTY LAGS

Neighboring Districts Far
Ahead of This Territory,
Hunt Tells Committee.
BANKERS GIVE MORE
Six Per Cent of Assets of Lo
cal Institutions Were
Voted in Today.
Alter a long session, the bankers of
Boone County, In a meeting at the
Commercial Club at 11 o'clock today,
voted to put 6 per cent of their total
assets In Liberty Loan bonds. H. H.
Banks, chairman ot the bankers' can
vassing committee, said that the
combined resources of the banks of
Boone County are $6,000,000, and that
this move will almost bring the Boone
County Lberty Loan subscription up
to its quota. Six per cent was set as
a minimum. "Any bank that wants to
do better, may," said Mr. Banks.
"Five banks are spending 10 per cent
of their assets on bonds." The main
argument used against making the
banks' subscription higher was that
money should be reserved to be used
In a third Liberty Loan campaign in
the spring. The argument opposing
this was that if enough were sub
scribed now, a third campaign would
not be necessary.
"Boone County Is behind in Its
quota," said S. C. Hunt today. "I
think it is the people's duty to come
across." Mr. Hunt, who has been at
tending a bankers' meeting in St.
Louis, said that there the counties of
Missouri were listed under three
heads: Those who had reached their
quota, those who had nearly reached
It and those who were behind. Boone
County, which was in the last class,
was moved up Into the second class,
not on account ot its subscription list,
but because of its efficient organiza
tion A total of $43,550 worth of Liberty
Loan bonds was reported sold on Lib
erty Day yesterday in Columbia, the
first day of personal canvassing; $18,
050 at the rally at the Courthouse last
night, $1S,000 by the business men
and $7,500 by women canvassers.

A BIG FACULTY FUND
Purchase from University
Professors Is More Than
Amount Asked.
The faculty and others connected
with the University have already sub
scribed a J much 'larger amount 'to
the Liberty Loan than was expected
of them by the Boone County Liberty
Loan Organization, and are now en
deavoring to push the figures up to
$54,000, one-tenth of the total Boone
County quota, before the end of the
week.
When the committee undertook to
sell bonds to University people, they
were informed by the county com
mittee that $20,000 would be a large
amount to raise as their quota. Dean
$25,000 from R. B. Price
The largest Individual sub
scription to the Liberty Loan
fund in Boone County a $25,
000 purchase by R. B. Price, Sr.
was announced at 4 o'clock
this afternoon. Mr. Price's pur
chase was made voluntarily
this afternoon when he heard
that his county was falling short
of the quota expected here. It
was an individual purchase, but
was made through the Boone
County .National Bank, of which
Mr. Price is president. It was
received with great enthusiasm
by the Liberty Loan campaign
ers here.
At 5 o'clock this afternoon it
was reported that S. C. Hunt
had also personally subscribed
for $10,000 worth of Liberty
Bonds.
Isidor Loeb, chairman of the Univer
sity, reports that today the sub
scriptions have reached $43,000 with
enough promised to bring the quota
up to $46,000.
These figures include only the of
ficial reports of subscriptions given
to Dean Loeb or other members of
the committee. The chairman wishes
it known that student's contributions
or subscriptions made by student
organizations, count as part of the
University's share, but that he must
have a notification of the subscription.
He cannot count in his figures, sub
scriptions printed in the papers as
coming from the University, without
an official notice of their being made.
The committee has only a short
time in which to complete Its cam
paign, as the issue closes at 4 o'clock
Saturday, and urges that all con
nected with the University who have
subscribed or intend to subscribe,
telephone a report to the committee.
A remarkable, thing about the cam
paign, Dean Loeb points out, is the
large number of subscriptions from
persons on small salaries. The $43,
000 already subscribed has come from
104 persons. There have been some
large subscriptions, but the size of the
total is chiefly the result of a large
number of small subscriptions. Dean
Loeb asks anyone connected with the
University, who can spare $1 a week,
to buy a government bond on the in
stallment plan.
An investigation has been made by
the committee in regard to those con
nected with the University who bought
Liberty Bonds of the first issue. As far
as could be ascertained, forty-eight
University people invested in bonds,
their subscriptions totaling $17,000.

MINIMUM BOND SALE
QUOTA NOW ASSURED
Treasury Officials Estimate
Sale Will Reach Three
Billion Mark Tonight.
HOPE FOR MAXIMUM
Committees Feel Efforts to
Reach Five Billion May
Be Successful.
Br Associated Press
WASHINGTON, Oct. 25. Estimates
made by treasury officials today were
that Liberty Bond sales would reach
the $3,000,000,000 mark tonight, with'
indications that the minimum mark
would be passed. Reports from all
districts mention increased activity
in the buying of bonds, and it is be
lieved by many that the maximum
quota will be attained before the close
of the campaign Saturday.
From the confusion that resulted
today from the overwhelming volume
of business that fairly swept commit
tees off their feet, indications are that
the attempt to reach the $5,000,000,000
maximum may be successful.
The sale is already a success, it is
felt, for the country has taken up the
minimum quota and all sections are
Lstrongly represented in the sub
scriptions. The purpose of sell
ing $5,000,000,000 worth of bonds is
born of a desire to show all the world.
laud particularly the enemy, the mo
mentous things Americans can do,
and yesterday this desire asserted
Itself in every nook and corner of the
United States.
It can no longer be said that any
section of the country is asleep to the
imperative needs of the nation. Un
til yesterday the Dallas and Atlanta
districts and certain parts ot the
Middle West were causing great con
cern, more, in fact, than those in di
rect communication with the. district
committees could realize, but they
came through with flying colors. To
day they are moving swiftly along,
continuing their sales toward the
maximum of their quotas.
Next to the stimulating reports ot
Dallas and Atlanta, the most encour
aging news of the day came from the
3t. Louis district It passed its min
imum mark of $120,Q00,000 and set
sail for its maximum of $200,000,000.
This is particularly gratifying, since
the workers there have to contend
with pro-Germanism and apathy.
Lack of interest showed its strength
in certain sections of Illinois and
Mississippi, but all ot these sections
came to the scratch.

URGES TO SATE SUGAR FIRST
Mrs. Walter McNab Miller Tells CItIc
League of Conservation Plans.
Mrs. Walter McNab Miller in a
talk to the Civic League on food con
servation yesterday said that the
most important things for the nation
to save were first, sugar, then wheat,
fat and meat. She said that each
each American consumes ninety
pounds of sugar a year, and France
only forty-five pound, but last year
France was cut down to twenty-one
pounds a year, or only a teaspoonful
a day, an amount too small to main'
tain life. To release sugar to send to
the front Is a patriotic duty, she con
tinued.
Mrs. Miller said that by abstaining
from wheat one meal a day our ex
ports could be increased enormously.
She also advocates a potato week.

American Patrol Scout Ap
pears After Steamer and
Submarine Had Battled
for Four Hours.
SEVEN MEMBERS
OF CREW WOUNDED
Ship Had Been Disabled and
Was Doomed Alniost 500
Shots Are Exchanged in
Exciting Duel.
By Associated PrT
A FRENCH SEAPORT. Wednesday,
Oct. 24 (delayed). Escaping from a
German submarine after a bitter fight
lasting nearly four hours, and with
seven of her crew wounded, two of
them seriously, an American steamer
arrived here this morning from an
American port.
The timely intervention of an Amer
ican torpedo boat destroyer alone
saved the ship from being sent to the
bottom. A few hours after the vessel
had entered the danger zone, a look
out sighted a submarine, but before
he had time to report its presence, the
submarine fired a shot, which missed
the stern of the ship by a few yards.
The captain of the American vessel
Immediately sent out a wireless call
for assistance, as the position of the
submarine was such that escape was
impossible. The gun crews of the
submarine and steamer then began to
exchange shots.. The chief gunner of
the steamer opened fire at a range
of 9,000 yards, but all the shots fell
short.
Vessel Fires 260 Shots.
The submarine kept maneuvering
to keep out of range of the steamer's
guns, at the same time maintaining a
running fire In an effort to disable the
vessel. The merchant ship, after al
tering her course, started at full
speed in an effort to escape. The
stubbornness of the batUe Is indicated
by the fact that the submarine fired
234 shots at the steamer, which re
sponded with more than 260 shots.
After the fight had continued for
nearly four hours and several shots
had struck the ship, wounding four
men, one shell hit the vessel and ex
ploded in the engineroom, putUng the
engines out of commission and ren
dering the ship helpless. The sub
marine commander then drew nearer
and the submarine continued to rain
shells on the disabled craft
Destroyer Just In Time.
A high sea was running at the time
and there seemed little hope of sav
ing the ship when a low streak of
black smoke was sighted on the hori
zon. It proved to be an American tor
pedo boat destroyer coming at full
speed. She immediately made for the
submarine, which dived and disap
peared beneath, the surface.
The American warship circled about
the spot where the submarine dived,
dropping a few depth charges, but no
more signs of the U-boat were seen.
