S-OME disappointment was felt by Liberty loan leaders at the totals resulting from committee reports at the luncheon yesterday in the Commercial club. With the exception of the foreign corporations committee and one or two others, none had any rrreat progress ia announce. The scanty attendance was also a disappointment, and was commented on strongly by Lester D. Freed, city campaign cam-paign manager. Mr. Freed declared that while the totals were not great, the announcements an-nouncements made showed that the committees represented were working strenuously, but he regretted that more committeemen had not attended the luncheon. He pointed out that it was absolutely essential for workers to attend at-tend the meetings, make their reports and receive instructions. After all reports were in yesterday the total subscriptions for Salt Lake were shown to be $6,85.1,450, out of a quota of $10,212,700, and for the state $10,773,750, out of a quota of $18.-570,800. $18.-570,800.

' mass meeting tomorrow to-morrow night. It is at least expected that by far the greater part of the state ?s allotment will have beeu raised with the rest assured. Every worker has been urged to redouble his efforts, and the effects of the new impetus are expected to show prominently in reports from the city at the luncheon tomorrow. Saturday's Mass Meeting.
