Washington, Sept. 17.—THe whole state will be interested in the facts Jjust compiled at Washington by Con- gressman Augustine Lonergan of the First District, as they tell in a very forcible way of the contribution Con- necticut is making as her share in the great effort of the war to pre- serve the rights of the nation. The congressman has consulted with the heads of the various departments at Washington, with a view to hav- ing figures compiled, insofar as Con- necticut is concerned, and the results tell the whole story. Brig. Gen. H. P. McCalin, the ad- Jjutant general of the army, states that Connecticut’s total queta for the regular army is 2,228, and that the official figures of the war depart- ment as of August 24, show Connec- ticut had secured her quota at that time, and that in fact 2,419 of the men who presented themselves in Connecticut were accepted for enlist- ment in the regular army from April 1, to August 24, 1917. The chief of the Militia Bureau, Brig Gen. Wil- llam A. Mann, now commander of the Rainbow Division of which some of the Connecticut troops are a part, stated that the official records in his office as of July 31, showed there were 150 officers and 65,091 enlisted men in the Connecticut National Guard, who were taken into the fed- eral service. In addition, Connecti- cut will have soon placed under arms in the new National Army, her quota of nearly 11,000 men, secured under the selective draft. Secretary of the Navy Josephus Daniels informed Mr. Lonergan that on August 23, according to official figures, there were in the navy 140,- 870 enlisted men, of whom Connec- ticut has supplied a representative quota. Exact figures on Connecticut were not available, for the annual Troster is now being prepared, and as the ships of the service are so scat- tered, it will be some two weeks be- fore the work is completed. Liberty Loan Record. Of the total amount subscribed for the First Liberty Loan, which reached more than $3,000,000,000 and made 4,000,000 government bondholders in the country where there were but 300,000 before, Connecticut, as fig- ures secured from the treasury de- partment and from the office of Gov- ernor Ajken of the Federal Reserve bank of Boston show, subscribed $28,- 982,450 or $5,000,000 mcre than its quota of $23,200,000. Of the state's total, Hartford County subscribed $18,609,050, and the City of Hartford nearly $12,000,000. New Britain sub- scribed 60 per cent. more than its quota. The state also played a prominent part in the campaign of the Red Cross to secure $100,000,000, the total contributions from the state as of August 22, last, being $2,667,975.07, of which $690,806.94 was contributed by residents of Hartford County. The total secured by the Red Cross from the campaign throughout the coun- try was $120,929,751.12, according to the report of the secretary to Mr. Lonergan, dated August 28. In the state of Connecticut, also, there are 89,749 members of the Red Cross and Hartford County has 20,200 of these. The Navy league of the States, incorporated to be of every service possible to the men of ' the fleet, has in Connecticut 850 members, of whom 149 members reside in Hart- ford, where Captain Francis B. Allen and others in the Admiral Bunce sec- tion are doing excellent work. A. H. Dadmun, secretary of the league in- forms Mr. Lonergan that in addition there are many thousands in the state in the Woman'’s league, an aux- illary of the organization. All this shows, in a national way, the place the state has taken in the great war; and besides the State Council of Defense, the Home Guard, and other organizations are all work- isg to show the state's “bit” is a sub- stantial contribution.
