OVER 100000 SALE
Of Thrift STAMPS
Probably 10000 People Have
Purchased Certificates

General Chairman r. r. Gilpatric
issued today a very important state
ment with reference to the sales of
War Savings Stamps and the plans
for the coming year. 1t will be read
with much interest by every War
Savings Stamp purchaser and is as
fellows:
New Britain can feel proud Of
this record because 1t means much
when you consider how largely we
over subscribed all Liberty Bond is
sues. This Is sort of an extra contri-
button but by no means a small one.
'"rhe War Savings campaign prob
ably enTolls 10000 people into the
work Of saving and loaning to the
government. 1t undoubtedly reached
many who were not reached in any
other way, and this more than the
amount of money shows it's value.
This War Savings cam paign has
been a long one and a hard one, 1t
has been successful because q great
many enthusiastic workers in all
branches of our city life have worked
so many workers that IT is impossible
for the committee to thank them each
individually. The committee appre-
ciates the work of all these helpers
and takes this occasion to thank them
for all that has been done.
War Savings and Thrift Stamps
will be issued by the governm ent dur
ing 1919. 1T has not been decided
definitely how the campaigns will be
conducted but the stamps can be
bought at the post office or banks
without any question. Any Thrift
Stamps left over from the 1918 is
sue will be good for 1919; OF course
all the war Stamps are good at any
time The average person will &C

War Stamps during this year would
probably have not been saved in any
other way. The work certainly devel-
OPS the habit Of thrift This Is the

that the invaders would he elected by
o'clock tonight.
The seizure of the newspaper was
suggested during the demonstration at
the palace on Wednesday, when Dr.
Karl Liebknecht and other radicals
delivered speeches. The demonstra-
tors followed the Red Guard to the
printing plant, which was unoccupied
as the day was a holiday.
After the seizure, volunteer COM
positors responded to call for skilled
men and several Of these started up
the linotype machines. Spartacan
writer's provided copy for hand-b bills
which were issued under the caption,
Red Vorwaerts." Meanwhile, the
Red Guards had posted sentries at the
doors and windows to repel invaders
The hand-bills contained a report Of
the demonstration and explained the
seizure of the newspaper which was
declared to be warranted "under the
new law born with the revolution"
The newspaper was also referred to
as Lying dog" and reptile whose
poisonous teeth are now about to be
pulled" The retirement of Premier
Ebert and Herr Scheidemann and
their intimate colleagues was also de-
handed
Frederick Stampfer, editor of the
Forwaerts, called the attention of the

Y. M c. A in addition to the basket
ball league which is attracting so
much attention and favorable cont
ment Nothing has been said about
combining it to the factories which are
interested in the basketball league

Brief News Items
v Berlin, up TO this mornings report,
still remains il the grip of the dread
ed influenza epidemic which has been
threatening this part OF the state for
The past two months. Many new cases
Nave been reported on Berlia street in
reported this morning. IT is unofi-
cially reported that there are between
20 and IS cases in town and one fam
lily is said to have seven cases. The
local health officer has made no state
iaeut as to how many cases there are
in tbs town, but it is believed that the
disease is fully under control.
Roads In Bad Condition.
Whether there is a lack Of laborers
or whether the town road commits
sioner has resigned his position is the
mystifying thought in the minds OF
the public. Many complaints have
h6en sent in in regard to the condi-
ton of the Hudson street hill, but as
yet no results have been gained. Also
the Lower Lane road, leading from
he Berlin fair grounds, has been in
had condition and as the town officials
have failed to repair it the townSpeo-
ale living il that vicinity have had to
90 their own repairing in order that
they might be able to travel that way
1t will be remem bered that the last
time the Hudson street hill was re-
paired it was put in a. worse condition
than it was before being repaired
The thick layer of stones, which was
taken from Main street when the con-
crete road was laid. was laid out on
Hudson street and after a. heavy rain
the gravel had washed away and the
hill remained all stone, so now 1T Is
almost impossible for team or auto
mobile to descend the hill without
breaking the springs. It is hoped by
the public living in that vicinity that
something will be done soon in re-
gard to the condition of this road.
