MAR BUREAU DISBANDS
 SALARIED ORGANIZATION

The Bridgeport War Bureau will cease to maintain it's salaried organ ization after March 5I, as the city appropriations for that purpose run only 10 April l. After that time the War Bureau will continue formal organization in order to carry on it's objects, food, Soldiers and Sailors club, and AmeriCanization.
 The Soldiers and Sailors club is maintained from a fund obtained by voluntary subscriptions. The food committee will be maintained by a city appropriation, which is available for this purpose. S2.7O0 for Home Gardens. $2,70O for Dehydrating plant and $500 for Home Economics. The Food committee will provide the bal ance Of about $2,5OO required to op- crate the dehydrating plant from funds already contributed by private subscribers.
 The Americanization committee will be conducted through an ap- propriation by the city of S7,500. The other activities of the War Bureau will, as q. rule cease.
 Justice Wheeler, speaking of the work of the War Bureau said, today: "A large amount of work has func- toned through the War Bureau throughout this war period It was new work to all of us and we have made our share of mistakes. But on the whole 1t is gratifying to all of us who have been connected with this public task to have the satisfaction of feeling that we have had part in

promoting the home war activities and especially in helping to stimu- late 8 deeper and truer patriotism in our community.
 Tt would be too extended lis: were I to attempt to name all those who have contributed to these results, but should like the people of Bridgeport to know that we all owe a great deal to the especially faithful service of J. Edward Elliott, our sec retary, and to our stenOgrapher. Mrs G. K. Ballard.
 "Our efforts could not have had a chance of success had we not had q great deal of assistance from our To- cal press and the constant aid and encouragement of Mayor Wilson.
 Others will not criticise me if I name as the most efficient and ener- getic workers for the War Bureau. the Women's Committee and their subordinate bodies, the Minute Wom- en and the Motor Corps The Four Minute Men also rendered a notable service in keeping up the morale at home.
 we have not used all of the fund of the War Bureau, as the report uf F. T. Staples, our treasurer, to be made later, will show The city treasury will have returned to it a very substantial part of the ori iginaI appropriation. In view of what has been accomplished we hope that pub lie opinion generally will approve Of our expenditures.

The rattle of steel told me some among them had reached the arm rack. There followed the crash of wood as though the butt of gun had spiintered a door panel.
