 Our organization is badly scattered
 and we have been unable to locate quite
 number of our men. Those to whom
 we have appealed by personal letter and
 the public press we do not feel we can
 class as slackers, but simply they do not
 realize the seriousness of the situation.
 We are again appealing to the patriotic
 travelling salesman to make business a
 secondary consideration and rally to the
 support of our government and the
 Fourth Liberty Loan committee to make
 this (the noblest work possble) a great success" . General Bridges requests all travelling
 salesnfen, regardless of the organization
 to which they may belong, to report at
 headquarterS this morning and again to-
 morrow morning for work.
