SHOULD NOT CASH IN WAR SAVINGS STAMPS Postmasters of Connecticut have re- celved from Howell Cheney, state di- rector on war savings committee, a letter nkins1 them to do all they can to prevent the cashing in of war sav- ings stamps now, which he says many people are doing under a mistaken impression as to the maturity date of the stamps. 2 The letter follows: Hartford, Conn., Dec. 12, 1918, To Postmasters in Connecticut: Dear Sir: It has been brought to our attention that evidently through a misunderstanding of the termination of the issue of the 1818 series of war savings stamps many individuals (par- ticularly among the foreign born) are seeking to. cash their war savings stamps, fearing that they will not be good after Jan. 1ist. ‘We would suggest that you endeavor in every way within your power to make it clear that the maturity date of the war savings stamps is Jaf. 1st, 1323, not Jan. 1st, 1919, and that to cash them now results in the loss of considerable interest, representing the difierence between a 3 per cent. rate and a 4 1-2 per cent. rate, We would also suggest that in every instance you ineist upon the ten-day notice required by the law.

Clergymen of all denominatios cos operated in the movement by devating part of the Sunday services to encour- aging their congregations to register their support of the work of the Red Cress by renewing their membership qQr, if now alregdy a member, by join- ing during this week. In view of the splendid opening on Sunday, it is expected that when the accredited Red Crpss workers start out this morning to vist}tl the stores, of- fices, factories and houses they will receive a cordial welcome and that their work will be made easy by the willingness on the part of the people of the district to enroll themselves under the banner of the Red Cross.
