LIBERTY BOND
SALE TROUBLES
NORWALK BANK
Clerk Would Make a Hit
With Officials by Max
ing Big Sales.

Friendship of Edward B. GaIIaher
of Norwalk, who recently organized a
machine gun company in that town
to give training to the young men
there for George S. Raymond. a. mem
Der of the company, has led to some
peculiar complications in a, Iiher+1v
bond DEAL. and Gallaher, is now the
complainant in suit in the Superior
court in which he wishes the bond
deal untangled, and incidentally dam
ages of $12,500 from Raymond and
the Central Trust Co. of NorwaIk.
which was represented by Raymond.
Gallaher consented to this ar
Manufacturing Co. of New York. but
which has its principal offices in Nor
walk. Raymond is clerk for the
Central Trust Co. of NorwaIk, and was
formerly a clerk in a National hank
now merged with the Trust Co.
In his complaint, which covers
nearly dozen typewriter pages Gal
laher cites the formation of his ma
chine gun company, Raymond's mem
| bership in it, his friendly relations
with Raymond, and then goes on to
state that due to this friendship, he
acting for the Clover Co. subscribed
to $4,000 in Liberty bonds through
Raymond, on the latters representa-.
ton it would be for his benefit.
| Then, according to the complaint,
Raymond proposed to Gallaher a
scheme to get five men to underwrite
a subscription for 100000 in Liberty
bonds, not actual subscriptions, but
so the bank could take the bonds and
offer them for sale, which would aid
the credit of the bank and would also
be to the credit of Raymond with the
bank. Raymond told him, he al
ileges, the loss would not be more than
$25 or $50.
Gallagher consented to this ar
rangement, to be one of five to take
so, 900, and paid $780, two per cent. OF
the purchase price. Then Raymond
asked Gallagher if he wanted any
part of the 100000, and Gallaher fol
the Clover Manufacturing Co. agreed
to take 5000, in addition to the pre-
vious $1,000 he had subscribed.
The plaintiff company paid all Of
the installments on the bonds bought
preceding the final payment due jan
uary IS, 1918, and no other demand
for payments was made by Raymond
or the Trust company until Raymond
lcaIled him on the telephone and in

What 4 GERMAN
VICTORY means
TO AMERICANS

Contributed by Frank H. Sinonds
to the National Security Leagues
campaign of Patriotism Through Ed
ucation.)
If the American people would re-
view the sequence of events which
led to American entrance into the
war, they would perceive that we are
fighting because the Germans attacked
the lives and the liberties and the
properties of American citizens. They
would perceive that Germany adopt
ed the doctrine which would make it
necessary either for the American
people to abandon the seas or to
fight. They would perceive also that
logical extension of this German
policy was the offer of American ter
ritory to Japan and Mexico and the
building up of a huge conspiracy in
side the United States against the
peace and order of this country.
This is why we are at war with
Germany. So long as Germany pur-
sues this policy, we must fight, and
we must fight because it strikes at
our own existence, at our lives, at all
we have, at every right which is sa-
cred and at every right which is
guaranteed by international and do
nestle law. AS long as Germany
continues to pursue toward the Unit
ed States the policy which she has
adopted and which brought US into
the war, American aid and American
support will necessarily be given to
the nations and to the aims of ma
tons fighting Germany, because our
armies and our wealth will add to
the burden of Germany and deduct
from her strength and resources.
This is, as far as we are concerned,
an American war. It is a war fought
in defense of American rights, and
our aim is the preservation of those
rights for which governments are
constitutes and which, in the last
analysis, are the main business of ma
tons.

AUSTRIAN LABOR
MEN GRUMBLE AT
WAR PROSPECT

Amsterdam, Jan. 24.-The strike in
Austria, according to a dispatch from
Vienna printed in the Vossische lei
tung of Berlin, was started by a
workman named Schorefelder, who in
duced a couple of hundred of his
comrades at the Daimler motor works
in Weiner Neustadt, IS miles south of
Vienna, to walk out.
The strike spread rapidly and on
Thursday of last week all the NUM-
ton works and factories were forced
to close. Hundreds of thousands of
persons gathered in the streets. No
songs were sung and no banners were
flown the dispatch says, only threats,
grumbles and demands being heard.
The tradespeople joined in the strike
and all shops were closed. The
printing of newspapers was stopped
and Vienna was without a newspaper
for three days.

wireless stations each day at a GER
tain hour pick from the air figures
flashed from Paris by which the
clocks of the army are synchronized.
This method does not insure absolute
accuracy:
When the last links of the telegraph
system are connected, each day at II
o'clock a simultaneous signal will be
sent to every station so that through
the existing zone and, later on, at
the front as well, clocks and watches
will show the same time. This syn
chronization is desirable under pres
ent conditions and is an absolute ne
cessity with troops at the front when,
for instance, orders may specify that
some operation is to be carried out
at one point at a certain time and
another operation at another point at
another time. The success of both
operations may depend upon them be
