HISTORIC FLAG Is
SEEN ~ DUPLICATE

In THE Stacker the Metro pro-
duction de luxe starring the brilliant
actress, Emily Stevens, to be shown
at the Auditorium theatre. tonight,
will be seen an exact duplicate Of the
flag that inspired Francis Scott Key
to write the national anthem, The
Star Spangled Banner"
This was the flag that floated over
Fort Henry at Baltimore when the
British fleet attacked the American
fort. AT that time the national en-
blem consisted of fifteen stripes and
fifteen stars, and measured 40x30 feet.
The duplicate Of this flag, screened
In The Stacker" measures exactly
the same as the original, which is one
OF the treasures of the United States
government.
Under cover of a flag of truce, the
young composer had gone on board a
British war vessel to see a friend who
was "a prisoner, and during the night
the British attacked the fortress. The
sight of Old Glory, battle-scarred, but
still flying in the morning breeze, in
spired him to write the immortal song.

RED CROSS IS
 STRIVING FOR 5O,OOO MARK

Total membership of at least 5o,000 is expected in the Red Cross mem bership campaign before the close Monday, if enrol1ments continue to come at the present rate. Many of the stores have made 100 per cent. enrollments, some of the big factories very nearly approach that per cent age, and in all quarters there is a disposition to pile up a big figure for Bridgeport
 At the Remington shops 2,500 mem- bers, or about 21 per cent, have en- rolled, and the Cartridge shop reports 1900, or about 13 per cent. Both of these shops are after a 100 per cent. enrolment and will come very near to gaining it.
 Three large shops, the American Chain, the Bassick Co.,, and the Ray hestos Co.,, have already reported 100 per cent. enrollments of their forces, and 19 smaller shops have reached that goal, a total of 22 establishments where every member of the working force is enrolled. The number of IneInDeTS range lToIl HNe III tne SIIldA- est shop to S83 in one of the larger ones.
 Greek speaking residents through a deputation have asked about a state ment made by Chairman Bassick thai Greeks are not taking memberships, and say that Greeks are joining and that there are several hundred speak ing that language who have enrolled They promise to demonstrate to the entire city just where the Greek speaking population stands.

Essen Gun Factories
  In Flames
.orkmer1 From Krupp
 Plants, Arriving in Holland, Report That Vast Munitions Shops Have Been Burning For the Past "A Hours.

Maestricht, Holland, Dec. 22 -Workmen from Essen, Ger many, say that the Krupp plant, the great German muni- ton establishment, has been ablaze for 24 hours. The plant in Essen, the main establish ment of the Krupps, the largest manufacturs in Germany of arms and munitions, employed about 5000 men before the war.
 It has been expanded greatly dur ing the war Facts relating to it's present size and the number of workmen are kept secret by the Ger man government It was reported un- officially in October of last year that about 70,000 persons, including sev- eral thousand women, were at work there, and that 0,000 were to be add ed to the force.
 Early this year there was strike at the Krupp works said to have been due to lack of food. It was reported that 40, 1000 workers were involved and that the authorities comfatted 1t by sending many of the men to the front, but little authentic information was allowed to come out of Germany.
 Essen is in Rhenish Prussia, about 40 miles from the Dutch border. Few places in Germany are guarded more carefully. No person unknown to the German authorities is allowed to visit the town. The plant has been raided several times by French and British aeroplanes, notwithstanding its formidable anti-aircraft defenses Press dispatches last July said 100 persons there had been killed in a raid by French aeroplanes and that considerable damage had been done to the works.
