LADD ! Chairman Industrial Division of King County, Third Liberty Loan | T HE THIRD LIBERTY LOAN, opening April 6th, has the unanimous indorsement of the AMERICAN FEDERATION OF - LABOR, the STATE FEDERATION OF LABOR, the CENTRAL of LABOR COUNCIL of Seattle and all its several branches. The great demand made upon our Government to speed up the war productive activities has made it necessary to call for this great loan from the American people. The amount of the THIRD LIBERTY LOAN allotted to KING Cn COUNTY will probably be THIRTY or THIRTY-FIVE MILLIONS. To raise this enormous sum in the short time allowed, means the personal investment of every AMERICAN CITIZEN in this County. A. L. Hawley is chairman, has realized the necessity of the united co-operation of the work- ers, . make this THIRD LIBERTY LOAN a great success; so the county has been divided into divisions. THE INDUSTRIAL DIVISION has been turned over entirely to a committee composed of labor representatives, whose duties are to organize sub-commit- tees within each industrial plant by the selection of someone from each department, from the office and throughout the plant. : The plan is to organize committees from each labor section, who will assist in the selection of the subcommittees, encourage the organizations affil- iated with their section to invest liberally from their general » and to insist that each local create and maintain a roster carrying the name of each This will enable the Executive Committee to accredit each lo- cal justly, and give each subscriber the publicity deserved. We must direct each subscriber from each local in the general canvassing work mentioned and create rivalry among the locals to excel each other in amassing the greatest proportionate aggregate. Each industrial:plant will be given public acknowledgment in proportion to the energy displayed and accomplishments in this great work. Each local union will be given credit in the same manner; 100 per cent efficiency in a small organization will count just as much as a large one; you will be accredited by how strong you go, not how big you are, and the united efforts of all will make this a successful drive. | | | The undersigned committee, the EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE INDUSTRIAL DIVISION, is your committee, boys and girls and fellow workers | in the various avenues of labor, and we hereby request each and every one of you to put i your shoulder to the wheel, and PUSH HARD! Each one by this proclamation is appointed a committee of one » do hen or her hit; acquaint yourself as to whether your friends and neighbors are doing their bit. 1 For your convenience your Executive Committee has estab- lished Headquarters at Room 3 Central Building (ground floor), where you will be able to find someone in attendance at all times. Come in and get acquainted with our great plan and become a part of our work. If you are too busy to call, phone us, Elliott 861, and ask for Ladd or McGillivray.
