Arizona republican., 1918-10-12


 O- ----O
 With a goal of s30o,OO0 to be reached before they quit tonight, Liberty loan workers will this morning start the celebration of Liberty day in Phoenix with a great drive for subscriptions to the fourth loan.
 Their ranks will be augmented by scores of other volunteers, all deter mined to show Washington that circus day methods are not essential to sell , ing bonds in Phoenix, and that, despite the ban on public gatherings, this con- | munity will go on buying bonds to the limit.
 Army of Volunteers A young army of volunteer solicitors will meet at Liberty loan headquarters | this morning at 9 o'clock, and will | promptly inaugurate systematic campaign that will not end until the last weary pedestrian leaves the streets tonight On every corner in the busi- ness district there will be workers with cars, selling bonds.
 In the middle of each block there will be more workers, while a swarm of them will invade every office and business establishment, selling bonds. People who have already bought bonds will be urged to buy more, while those who have not already subscribed will be given the opportunity to at once subscribe for all they can possibly carry.
 Influenza Hurts Drive
 With Phoenix and Maricopa county ie~{t To- e l week of the campaign remaining, the necessity for every person buying bonds to the limit is glaringly appar- ent Even if Maricopa county did not have almost million and half yet to raise to meet its quota, it would still be necessary for the campaign to be pushed to the limit for in all prob- ability some of the other counties of the state will not be able to meet their quota.
 This may be true in Navajo county where the influenza epidemic has vir- tually tied up the campaign at Win slow, the largest town in the county Holbrook is also affected, so that Ma vajo county is far behind it's quota.
 Yavapai Goes Over
 Not only will solicitors be out selling : bonds all day, but Liberty loan head 7 quarters at the Chamber of Commerce building and Womens headquarters ir the Adams hotel building, will be oper } all day to receive subscriptions, anC until o'clock tonight. As this is :; legal holiday, the banks will be closed all day. However, there will be nt l lack of places at which you may mak your subscription.
 Unofficially, Yavapai county is re l ported as over the top in the fourtl ], loan. This is the third county to reacl } it's quota, both Mohave and Pinal hay i ing won honor flags.
