I citi is ot port of every loyal citizen of New rit- ain. The war chest idea in brief, is a plan fer one large campaign, which would collect & sum large enough io cover all requests from the people of the city for war emergency coatribu- tions during the year. The time and expense of many campalgns through the 12 manths, would thus be brougnt under one head. It wwould have the tollowing benefits: prevention of dupli- cated chorts; saving in offort and ex- pense; would reach all the people; would develop patriotism in those who give half-hearted support and would desire in a larger portion of the people to help win the war. Secretusy L. A. Sprague of the cham- ber of comm gave out notice this morning that to 30 of Now Brit- ain’s prominent business men will meet at the chamber of commerce Friday eveaing at 8 o'clock to work out plans for this large movement.
