CAMPAIGN IN WARDS
Managers Named to Handle Sale OF
Thrift Stamps in Six Districts
Canvass Begins Next Monday.

The Thrift Stamp campaign is to
be carried into every home in New
Britain. Organization was perfected
today for the opening of the house to
house campaign on the week Of Feb
ruary IS to %. The plan of cam
paign provides for the appointment of
six ward managers, who will direct
the work and will name street cap
tains for every street in the city.
Chairman Noah Lucas, who has
charge of this feature of the Thrift
Stamp campaign ANNOUNCED today the
selection Of the ward managers as
follows:
First ward-Henry Hoar.
Second ward--A. n. Rutherford.
Third ward-Harold w. Hatch.
Fourth ward-John A. Abraham
son.
FIFTH ward-Paul Nurczyk.
Sixth Ward-A. Gorbach
During the week of February 1s
the initial drive will be made. The
street captains will go to every house
on their respective streets and ask
for subscriptions for the purchase Of
Thrift Stamps. The plan will be to
get people to agree to subscribe
certain amount each month, and the
postman will deliver the stamps by
use of the franking privilege. In
case a person does not subscribe, 1t
will be noted on the report card and
the reason therefor. In case that it
is not an absolute refusal, the party
will be seen again on the next round
the captains make. Every month
around the 18th the captains and
their assistants will make tour Of
their districts and collect from the
subscribers. They will then take
care Of any prospects they have on
the list and also try and induce any
who have bought the stamps to in
crease their subscriptions. It is thus
proposed to create a great big war
savings society in New Britain, which
will reach every individual who would
not be approached in any other way

Heavy fighting took place along
