Alexandria city and county are

cords at the start Of the big drive, but
when the campaign ends throughout
the nation on May 4th., the city and
county will be up in the front of the

ganization is being effected and the
idea is to end the campaign with a
great whirlwind canvass that will
send the city and county way over the
quota set by the government and will
enable the city and county to fly the
honor flags and be enrolled on the
"Honor Roll' at the State capitol.
Alexandria city and county made

ganization. With an efficient argani
cation in every mag!sterial district in
the county and with the livewire citi-
zens of the county already on the job
and finally with house to, house and
office to office canvass in Alexandra
city, there is hope that this city and
(county will lead the entire state in
proportion to population.
First of all, every citizen in the city
and county must subscribe, SO that 10
cal credit shall be secured for the cam
paign. The instructions sent out from
the Central, Liberty Loan committee
at Richmond says that each county
is entitled to the credit for the sub
scriptions made by the citizens OF that
county. Chairman Leo P. Harlow has
written to the state chairman to find
lst how credit will be secured for To-
al citizens who may subscribe

nrough a government department.
