Chairmen of Sub-Committees Ap- pointed at Meeting on Wednesday. At a meeting of the liberty loan com- mittee held Wednesday afternoon, at which there were representatives_of various walks of life, these represent- atives .were made chairmen of sub- committees to he named by themselves and in this way extend further the iiberty loan campaign. The number of subscribers at the close of business | on Tuesday night was 473 and the subscriptions total $494,300. The following is quoted from a ci cular_letter sent by Mrs. John Laid- law Buel of Titchfie’d, state regent of the Connecticut Daughters of the American Revolution, which has 50 chapters in this state: In order to enlist the service of Connecticut women in popularizing the loan, the liberty loan committee of New England has appointed a wom- an’s liberty loan committee for Con- necticut. Mrs. Morgan G. Bulkeley chaismpan; Mrs. Richard M. Biesell, vice ¢hairman, upon which vour state regent has been Invited to act as the official representative of the Conn cut Daughters of the American Revo- lution. Both as a member of this com- mittec and in response to a letter just received from our own president-gen- eral, Mrs. Guernsey, appea ing to the state regents in the inerests of the loan, T am now caliing the attention of our chapters to this particular ser- vice to our country. No war can be carried on without money. Our soldiers give their lives— our president asks us simply to lend our dollars to the governmont. In this financing of our government the wom- en are as deeply concerned as the men. 1t is a war for the safety of our homes and our liberties. We shbuld not be dependent upon the rich men and the banks to raise this vast sum of $2,000.- 000,000. Thelr activities are needed in other ways. It is the responsibiilty and patriotic_ duty of a solid nation of shall investors, men, women and even children, standing back of the govern- ment and army. Please read the en- closed literature to your chapter. It will expalin much that is not at pres- ent realized by the general run of men and women. The liberty loan is no ta gift or a charity bt an investment and to buy liberty Joan bonds is one of the most eloquent ways of showing our faith in our country and our desire to serv “All that we are and all that we have’ our country’s need. Iyease bring this speciai lns of ser- vice to your chapters attention and Secure as many subscriptions to liberty bonds as possible. Subecribe as chap- ters and as individuals. Get subscrip- tion blanks and information from your banks and distribute to your Mhembers. Have the blanks returned to your chapter, either to yourself. your treas- urer or your representative, if other than vourself, on our Connecticut standing committee on war relief ser- vice. A D. A. R. chapter can take subseriptions as well as a department store or a newsstand.
