C. SUBSCRIBED Progress Compares Favorably, | With That of Third Bond Issue | Washington, Oct. 10.—In answer to the insistent question, how is the Fourth Liberty loan really going, a comparison today of records during loun showed t) The Fourth campaign weelks half gone and 200 in subscriptions, or 30 per cent. of the §6,000,000,000 sought have been reported. When the third cam- paign was half over, §1,371,000,000 or | per cent. of the tétal finally | reached, had been subscribed. This record in the third loan dnive, $420,- 000,000 less than at the correspond- ing stage of the present drive, was | achieved in two weeks, as comp: with ten days which have pa the current campaign. Thesc facts seem to progress in the Fourth parable to that of the was highly successful. Treasury ficlals point out, however, that the $6,000,000,060 credit which the peo- ple now are trying to accumulate for the government’s use is twice as large as that sought in the third campaign and is nearly 50 per cent. greater than the $4,176,000,000 actually subscribed to the third loan. In the present campaign, a larger inflow of subscriptions from big bus- iness interests and individuals of wealth is expected. To a large extent, however, these already have been en- tered and are included in the current totals. Hence the cautiona every indiyidual should third loan subscription. More than $13,000,000 has been subscribed in the navy toward the Fourth loan, Rear Admiral Cowie re- ported today. “Remember the Tampa”, a rallying cry originated by the United Stat coast guard and used in boosting i subscriptions from $50,000 to $160,- 000, now is being sent to coast guard stations everywhere. W. A. Frazier, sovereign command- er of the Woodmen of the World, to- day notified Secretary McAdoo that his organization had subscribed $1,- 0,000 to the loan. The American Decfense through its board of trustees, subscribe $250,000 in Feurth Loan bonds as a nucleus of a foun- dation to secure continuance of the ciety as a perrianent organization. of threc $1,791,463,- that com- which of- show loan is third, that his plea double society, s to Liberty SUBSCRIPTIONS ARE FALLING OFF BADLY Only $16,550 Added Yesterday—No Big Celebration Planned for Sat- urday Because of Epidemic. ss dragged and The Liberty Loan badly during the last only $16,550 in new reported vesterday. This makes a to- tal for New Britain of $1,854,400. There is a long ways to go to get that $23,178,000. Tonight there will be a meeting of the genéral committee at the New Britain National Bank Building at :45 o’clock and the factory canvass reports will be received, ~The com- mittee wil then be able to come pretty near telling how New Britain is going to come out on the Fourth Liberty Toan, Every canvasser is urged to et all returns possible in before to- night's meeting, The factory cam- paigners have kept very quiet about results, as they do not wish to let out anything until they are through, but such reports as are received are of a very encouraging nature. The publicity committee met yester- day afternon 4:30 o'clock at the chamber of commerce roms. It was decided to call on the mayor to issue a proclamation for everyone to hang out a flag Saturday, Libe Day. Other plans were discussed for promoting the loan. Is was decided also to sus pend a banner across Main street. Owing to the epidemic, it was decided not to arrange any public meetings, but a vigorous house to house cam- paign wil be conducted from now on.
