LOCAL LIBERTY LOAN CAMP AICN
 GREAT SUCCESS

With returns still incomplete the committee report that the liberty Loan in this city will run just trif1e above $s.o00,00o, exceeding the quota by $1o0,0oO. Of this amount $3.87o.- 500 was subscribed in the factory campaign by the workmen.
 The closing hours of the campaign found hundreds of people docking to the banks to buy bonds. PeSsimism of the committee up to two days be- before the closing of the campaign gave way early Friday morning to one of optimism caused by the activities of the public in general which assur- ed the success of the lean.
 The organization which had the loan in hand in Bridgeport, according to Howard Speer, the chairman of the committee, is practically perfect machine and will be maintained in anticipation of the next loan, which is expected to be called for early in February.
 The committee thanks the citizens of Bridgeport for their cooperation in the campaign and feels that every person who in any way contributed to the success of the loan should ba very proud of. having been identified with the campaign.

BIC FINAL DRIVE OF ''WET PARTY"IS
 TO BE LAUNCHED
With anti-aaioon leagues supply oi

With anti-sa1eon leagues supply of campaign dope" practically ex- hausted and Liberty Loan week passed, anti-prohibition advocates have launched a whirlwind defensive and have all plans set for week of activity. The 'wets'' will wind up their campaign next Sunday when prominent speakers will appear at an anti-prohibition rally to be held at the Casino on tSate street.
 The anti-prohibition workers have already distributed volumes of print ed literature bearing the quotations of some of the country's most nota- ble officials. They have a campaign fund said to be in excess of the s25,- 900 fund solicited by the "dries." Brewery officials, distillery heads, sa- loon preprieters and wholesalers have contributed freely.
 At a rally yesterday, Carl Lang, president of the Central Labor union, spoke to several hundred worAmen at Polish Falcon hall, South avenue and Main street. He charged the manufacturers were trying to de- prive the WorkargHsen of g personal liberty. He further asserted that the anti-saleen league forged the siEna- lures of some voters to get a sufhniant ppuher, af 1zznss, a its petition.

 Sfter the registration in June, and before the examinations were called many of those registered left the city and sought employment in other places When their names were pest ed they failed to appear, and were classed as slackers.
 Many of them found that without a registration card. or document show ing they had been examined for the draft interfered with obtaining em- ployment They were asked where they stood in the draft, and unless the answers. were satisfactory were refused employment in many cases. Some of these men enlisted from other parts of thee ountry, but a great many have returned to Bridge port, reported to their local boards, land will take their proper places when the final contingent is called.

'-The two outstanding features of the situation of. the week are the re- lentless British offensive in the Ypres salient, resulting in substantial gains of terrain of important strategic value and the sudden well aimed and sus- tained thrust of the French north of the Aisne.
 ''It is evident that the Allied drives along the western front are broaden ing in scope and in intensity. The whole front from the Houtholst wood through the Passchendaels rida southward to Lens and on to the Aisne Is becoming the scene of in- creasingly heavy Allied pressure, which the enemy is withstanding with difficulty
 Side by side the French and British are pushing on through the Flemish lowlands toward Roulers.
 'The enemy, believing he might find rift in the otherwise impregna- ble Allied line at the point of Junction between the Franco-British forces. directed repeated heavy counter at- tacks in this segment. These were repulsed.
 While the British attacks during the last week have been carried out with imposing effective, it is apparent that the British command is naneuv- ering in order to gain important tac- tical advantages at a minimum cost.
 The casualties to the enemy are rising steadily.
 Slowly the Allies are enlargins their gains in Flanders, driving into the heart of German resistance in the west.
 The German lines were penetrated to a depth well over two miles at one point.
 This first attack was immediately followed by a second assault in this same sector, crowned with full suc- cess.
 The training of our troops in France progresses steadily and fa- vorably. Certain units have taken their places in the front line trenches under actual battle conditions"

ALLIED ARMIES PRESS ENEMY
 IN THEE WEST

Washington, Oct. 29-Important de- velopments are impending in the great war, Secretary Baker indicates in his official review of last weeks opera tions on all fronts, which concludes with the brief statement that certain units of the American forces in France have taken their places on the battle front to complete their train ing. This is the war department s first mention of the fact that Gen. Pershing's men are on the firing line.
 It is the wave of activity during the week on nearly every front. however, that caught the secretary's attention. Significant operations are in progress. he says, both east and west, on the Italian front, in Macedonia, Rumania, Mesopotamia and even in East Africa. On the western front. he said, a new strategic retreat of the German forces appears to be the next move expected, and they must move back under criti- cal conditions from between two Aisnes which have been driven re. lentlessly into their lin> by the Brit. ish and French.
 ! lIdly IS pbSSinS IuTOu6U d ulllDCulC moment, MT. Baker says The Aus tro-German drive is pressed forward by imposing forces. But once before Italy stenmed the tide of an Aus trian rush. under less favorable con- ditions for the defenders, he points out, and hurled the enemy back with only taste of victory during the first days of his terrific onslaught. Win ter is now coming to the aid of the Italians.
 The secretary's review follows: Renewed activity prevails in all theaters of war.
 Important developments would ap- pear to be impending.
 Along the western, eastern and Italian fronts, in Macedonia, Ruma- rffa, Mesopotamia, and even in East Africa significant operations are in progress.

COM MT I TEE ON FIVE CENT
 FARE A JOKE
Members Appointed to In vestigate Right of Com pany to Charge Extra Penny for Service is Too Busy Trying to Re elect Mayor Wilson To Do Any Work.

The city administrators attempt to give the public a five-cent trolley fare has been practically abandoned. The traffic committee, appointed by the common council has taken no steps toward putting the matter before the Public Utilities Commission. It's meeting more than two weeks ago was the only definite move after attempts to obtain an injunction against the Connecticut Co. failed in the superior court.
 Apparently the fight Is at a stand still and no progress whatever is be- ing made, despite the fact that traffic experts had been engaged and meet ings had been held with officials of the Connecticut Go. William D.. Seeley and George M. Eames, both members of the committee. are busily engaged in the G. O. P. political campaign. That is the only known reason for delaying the procedure.
 Meanwhile the Connecticut com pany patrons are paying six cents for @ ride within the city limits and the servfca fails to show improvement. In political circles, today 1t was hinted that the administration had been ''called ofr' and the appointment of the committee proposed solely for campaign reasons.
 The situation stands the same as the day the increased fare rate be: came effective. The committees next step was to obtain evidence to sub init to the Public Utilities Commission showing that the traction company could make money by charging five cents for all rides within the city boundaries. All evidence that the committee now holds was submitted voluntarily by officials of the trolley Company,
