 Raise Quota.
Tuesday, April 23

Bridgeport has gone over the
 top in the Liberty Loan drive
 and is the second big city in the
 state to subscribe its allotment
 since the campaign began, with
 a grand total of $4, ,342,5 $50. This
 total was given out at head
 quarters this morning. The
 committee is now working to
 bring the city's total subscrip-
 tion up to $6,00O,0OO which is
 50 per cent. over the allotment. It has been emphasized by the com
 mittee that the government in taking all subscriptions at this time will pro- long the next loan. Of the total
 amount subscribed the factories have
 contributed $1,617, ,9O0 general com
 mittee, $1,649, $50, banks, 1,075, 900, wo-
 mems committee, $233 900, merchants,
 $1O0,0O0, and fremen, $41 ,950.
 Since the report of the women's
 committee was submitted subscrip-
 tions amounting to about $7,OOO have been reported to Mrs. William T.
 Hfncks, chairman of the committee.
 The Park Avenue Sisterhood this
 morning reported $4,150.
 The German Alliance in this city
 disbanded last night and the money } in the treasury, amounting to $1,100, will be used to buy Liberty bonds, it was reported this morning Each of Io II ganization will receive '$100 bonds.
 A canvass of several of the streets
 of the city by members of the loan
 committee shows that certificates for
 purchasers of bonds are prominently displyed in the homes of the workers,
 in the different sections of the city.
 This canvass, the committee member
 stated, showed that the working man
 had done his share in the burdens of
 Bridgeport. In Atlantic and Gregory
 streets, he said, invariably all of the
 houses had Liberty loan certificates displayed in the windows and in some
 places two and three and in a few
 cases as many as seven were dis
 played in one tenement.
 Elaborate preparations are being
 made for the celebration of Liberty y.
 to be erected in the center where , bonds may be purchased for cash, on Friday. Arrangements are being made to have the fife and drum corps of the Lincoln school turn out for the
 occasion.
 The loan committee is very much !, elated over the success of the drive l to date and has renewed it's efforts to push the ban to the limit The
