San Antonio Pro Rata Subscriptions Reported Strong
Reports from Friday indicate nearly one and a half million dollars subscribed to the Liberty Loan in San Antonio. Six committees canvassed the city, with subscriptions expected to continue next week as a large portion of the total is oversubscribed to spread benefits across all taxpayers. Government officials aim to prevent undue advantage to large investors while allowing smaller subscribers to participate in non taxed investments.
