Hundreds Not in City Directory Must Do Their Bit The advisory board for the War Savings campaign June 20 to 28 will o'clock at meet this evening at rooms, when important details of the big drive for $1,000,000 will be settled Already a lot of hard preliminary work has been done, Raymond Rr. Healey, treasurer of the New RBritain Trust Co. as chairman of the com- mittea on names, has shown much ingenuity in complling the list of people to whom the president's and the governor's proclamations are to be sent. He did not depend on the city directory alone, as is customary in such campaign, but obtained from the various church a list of children of the parish below the directory age, but who come within the scope of this campaign, and thus added several thousand names to his list. Herbert H. Pease, the factory director of the campaign, who is full of push and energy, Is taking hold of his end of the campaign in characteristic style, and has called a meeting of represen- tativeg of the factories of New Britain for Thursday evening at 8 o’clock at the Chamber of Commerce rooms. Mr. Pease has {n mind a whirlwind cam- palgn through the shops, and he will have a director in charge of the campaign in each shop, who will be held personally responsible to see that the factory is covered from floor- sweeper to the captain of the indus- try. Frank G. Vibberts, vice president of the New Britain Trust Co. is push- ing the house to house canvass work in fine shape. The ward chairman have been picked out, and they are busy lining up workers. Arrangements were made today to have a stenographer on duty all the time at the Chamber of Commerce rooms from now until the close of the campaign. She can be called upon to do any typewriting or clerical station- ery with the letter franking privilege. Ths arrangement will be found a great convenience by the campaign workers in facilitating their work, as all the men lined up for this campaign are extremely busy and it means a per- sonal sacrifice for them to devote their efforts to this campaign.

OUR ARMY ABROAD NEAR MILLION MARK More Than 700,000 Have Leit, Baker Tells “Blue Devils” Washington, June 11.—More than 700,000 Americans have now left for France, according to an announce- ment made by Secretary of War ker in a speech to the “Blue Dev- ils” of France, who came here to ald the Third Liberty Loan and are about to return home. M. Jusser- and, the Irench ambassador, and Secretary Baker were speakers at the ,enthusiastic reception given to these French warriors on the monu- ment grounds. Secretary Baker, it is understood, had intended to withhold any an- nouncement pertaining to the num- ber of American froops in Europe for a few weeks more in order to be able to state that 1,000,000 in round numbers had already left. He decided at the last moment apparently that yesterday's ceremony provided a fit- ting occasion for stating the size of the force which already had gone. Mr. Baker’s last official announce- ment on this subject, made several weeks ago, was that 500,000 Ameri- cans had already left for the battle zone. Jt is known now that the number Americans sent overseas during May was between 200,000 and 250,- 000. This was partly due to the fact that the British government placed a considerable amount of tonnage at the disposal of the United States for troop transport purposes. The U-boats' raids off the Atlantic coast have not retarded and will not retard troop shipments, it is ex- plained. The flow of men and sup- plies to Kurope will be maintained unchecked. of EVENTS TONIGHT High class theater. photo drama, Fox's Vaudeville and superior photoplays, Lyceum theater.

PUBLIC SOX Everybody Invited to “Community Sing” At Walnut Hill Park. The United Parents’ and Teachers' association, working through a com- mittee of which Mrs. J. A. Traut is chairman, is providing New Britain with a new and enjoyable way of demonstrating its patriotic fervor, through mt fon Tt in- vites the cf t and individ- ually, to join in listening to patriotic selections by a band and by the Tib- erty orche ending In choruses of vocal music by evervone present, at Walnut Hill park next Friday night. The entire program will require an hour and will begin promptly at 7:30 o’clock. The mayor will make a hrief introductory addre: This novel entertainment orates Flag Day, which Friday, June 14, ana ting and appropriate an observance of the day as could well be desired. Tt is a form of celebration in which every one, voung and old, can have a part, giving expression to his feelings through the words of “America”, “The Star Spangled Banner” and other of the National songs through which love for our country is told. It is democratic—a folkse) family gathering of New Britain's people, many of whom will be breathing through their songs a p v for loved ones who are fighting. Those who have no such personal interest i well afford to go and add their tribute of song. The idea is one which will bear developing into a city in- stitution. There should be a large at- tendance and an early repetition when the idea has entered the pop- ular consciousnes commem- occurs on forms as fit- 400 POLICEWOM New Yo women call for VOLUNTEER. June 11.—Four hundred have responded to the first volunteers for the women's police reserve of New York city, it was announced today. Two hundred of these between the ages of 18 and 5. have enrolled for active training, and according to Inspector Dwyer, legislation soon will be enacted au- thorizing their appointment to the regular police force. One reserve po- licewoman will be assigned to each block and she will be required to make reports to the precinct captain of all untoward events and assist in preserving order and good moral. The policewomen will fill vacancies in the regular force due to the war. Simon G. Davey of 94 street has been promoted geantcy in the Aviation Corps in France, according to a letter re- ceived by his mother, Mrs. A. G. Da- vey. He enlisted in December, 1917, and after a brief stay at Kelly Field, he was sent overseas.

Garfleld announced late yesterda: The time has come, Dr. Garfield say. when the situation must be looked squarely in the face. He is unwilling to accept the responsibility of permitting the nation to take the summer conditions as a matter of course and face the consequences when industries are forced to shut down again during the winter months because of transportation congestion and inadequate coal supply. A definite program of conservation which will involve the curtailment of some less essential industries, Dr. Garfleld feels, imperative to the national welfare, with the war-time activities making extraordinary de- mands upon the coal production of the nation. No definite order was issued by Dr. Garficld calling for further cons vation by individual industries, and he made it plain that his intention was to carry out a program which would cause as little industrial un- rest as possible. One of the industries been fighting against a drastic cur- tailment order, it is said, is that en- gaged in the manufacture of pleas- sure automobiles. The fuel adminis- tration has advocated a curtailment of 5 per cent in this direction, and it was intimated that drastic regula- tion would be forced, not only by the inadequate coal supply, but b a shortage in steel and other materials. The hope was expressed, however, that some agreement could be reached with the war industries board and other government agencies which would bring about an under- standing in connection with this and other industri that would make it possible to effect a general curtail- ment on a basis which would not disrupt the financial and labor situa- tion in any community. Dr. Garfield, however, believes that further delay in the adoption of a comprehensive program would be reprehensible. MARINES ATTACK AGAIN Dig Into German Tine to Mile is which has of 800 Depth Three-quarters of a On Yard Front. With the American Army in France June 11, (Assoclated Press).— The United States Mdarines attacked the Germans after daybreak yesterday morning and penctrated the German lines for about two-thirds of a mile on a 600-yard front in the Bellean Wood, northwest of Chateay-Thierry. The Germans now hold only the northern fringe of the wood The Americans captured two nenwerfer, which are the largest pieces yet taken them.

The 9th and 233d Regiments of In fantry, comprising what is known as the Syracuse Brigade hold the ground on the right of the Marines at the point on the front nearest Paris. This is the second time the Syracuse Bri- gade has held the point on the line nearest the capital, the former occa- sion being at the offensive, when the Allies were still falling back, and the 9th and 234 went in at Coulomb for a short time. The 23d captured ma- chine guns on June 6, while suppor ing the attack by the M min- by rines.

He was speaking to the grad- uates of Notre Dame university. This great commerce fieet, Mr. Hurley said, the largest ever as- sembled in the history of the world and Involving the expenditure of more than $5,000,000,000, will link the United States to South and Cen- | tral America by weekly steamer serv: ice, which will enable the Latin: American countries to utilize their unlimited natural resources in the freest competition with other nations It also will bridge the Pacific for the, transportation of the products of Japan, Russia, China, Australia, and will continue to promote America's, trade with Europe. And with it all, he added, Ameri- can ships “will serve humanity loy- ally and unselfishly on the same prin- ciples of liberty and justice which brought about the establishment of this republic. “The vast merchant fleet we are building,” said Mr. Hurley, ‘“must become the greatest instrument of international probity, honesty, and square dealing at the close of the~ war. Tt must become the vast and vital machine whereby America will prevent the oppression of the weak by the strong, the crushing of righ# by might.” Mr. Hurley General Schwab said he and Director of the Emergency Fleet corporation expected the ship- ping output this year to exceed 3.- 000,000 deadweight tons, while next vear the nation’'s tremendous new <hipbuilding industry would be cap- able of turning out 13,518,000 dead- weight tons, more than Great Britain, heretofore the greatest builder of ships, has completed in any five years of her history.
