CONTINUED from Page One. }

More than one hundred prominent
men have been invited to conference
with bankers this afternoon at l
o'clock at the Business Mems club
when the Liberty loan campaign VIII
be discussed. Many of the men who
have been invited to the meeting have
already made liberal purchases OF
bonds, but the committee desires their
presence at the conference in order to
gain their views as to what methods
should be adopted to raise the remain
der of Richmond's quota.
Women Are Busy.
With Richmond entering upon the
last lap OF her great drive for the sale
of bonds, Mrs. W. Nj. HablisAon, chair
man of the womans committee, issued
an appeal last night to her workers to
put forth their greatest effort until the
close of the campaign. She Is deter
mined that her organization shall
make as good a record as possible in
the Victory drive.
Influenza has cut materially into the
work of the women's organization, for
many workers were forced to give up
their duties on the Liberty loan drive
in order that they could remain at
home to care for members of their
families who are suffering from the
disease.
With all gatherings also frowned on
by the health authorities. the women
have been unable to conduct as Wig
orous campaign as they had
planned.
However, during the two weeks that
they have been at work the women
have made sales aggregating more
than $4,000, 900, and are determined
TO run up this figure to substantially
greater amount before the close of the
drive on Saturday night. The prizes
offered by two department stores for
the organizations leading in sales and
in the number of individual subscrip-
tons obtained has created consider
able rivalry among the selling units
everyone of which Is competing fol-
honors

HAS TURKEY ASKED
FOR AN ARMISTICEe

Rome, Oct. 13.-The n e W p a G r

Monday asked the entente for an

that the Turks are evacuating the
Caucasian territory occupied by them,
including the oil city of Baku.
