NEW BRITAIN MUST
SPEED LOAN DRIVE
Only UaIf of Total Amount Has Been
Subscribed and But Two weeks
Arc Left.

Only one-half of the allotment Of
$3.17S,0O for the Victory Loan has
thus ar been subscribed in New Brit
ain and but this week and next are
left. This means that everyone has
got to get out and hustle to put it
across. The S1,577, $50 already raised
includes a large part of the big sub
scriptions which will be received, so
that the other half will be much
harder to get
Owing to the prevailing Spanish
Influenza no indoor mass meetings
have been arranged this week by the
committee on the Liberty Loan
as it is felt inadvisable and
would be against the wish Of the
health department which has ordered
the schools and theaters closed. An
other factory meeting was held to-
day and it is probable that more Will
be arranged during the week. Mas
ter-at-Arms Pratt of the British Roy-
al Navy addressed a meeting of Stan
ley Rule & Level Co. employees this
non. He is lame and has been dis
charged from the Navy.
Chairman A. J. Sloper of the gem
eral committee desires to have all the
factory canvass returns i'll Wednes-
day. AS a result a supreme elLoft lS
being made in the factories today and
tomorrow. They are not giving out
any figures until they wind UP their
canvass as they desire to make the
best possible showing and not be dis
credited by any partial returns. The
factories are getting behind the loan
in good shape, and the employees are
supporting the loan splendidly.
There is a disposition everywhere to
do the utmost to back the boys up at
the front.
