son river off 13Sth street early today.
The police said that in the absence

the cries of drowning sailors. These
witnesses declared that the launch ap-
parently collided with something just
before reaching the Nevada and that
they had clear view of what was
taking place because of navy search-
lights playing on the scene.
There were fourteen persons in
the launch, one being rescued ac-
cording to police reports.
Sailors from the battleship Missis-
sippi said the launch struck a sub
merged log, that they rescued one
man and that crew from the Nevada
rescued another. Four men were re-
ported saved by other crews. 1t was
learned the launch was from the de-
stroyer Bell.
Navy officials promised to issue
statement as soon as an inquiry had
been completed. Unofficially il was
declared eight men were missing.

shore hoping to effect rescues. said he

FALLING BEHIND
HERE IN VICTORY
LOAN CAMPAIG
$500, 600 Mark Not Passed Ac-
cording to Figures at Loan
Headquarters

The books at Liberty Loan head
quarters here show but slight in
crease over the weekend in subscrip-
tions, although it was expected that
many of the teams having reports to
make would do so Saturday night or
early this morning. The amount
shown on the Victory Loan books at
present has not yet passed the
100000 mark, there still being
pledges out for thousands of dollars
which have not yet been turned into
actual subscriptions.
That the teams and factories alike
are holding back their reports is evil
dent from the hundreds of buttons
and window posters which are being
secured daily from headquarters but
of which no return reports are being
made. Instead of reporting the pro-
gress of the drives on the teams and
in the factories majority are wait
ing until the maximum subscriptions
are received and then making the re-
port.
Many of the biggest corporate sub
scriptions expected in this city have
not been reported as yet and the en-
ployes of most of the large factories
have not been heard from although it
is known that they are carrying on in
tensive drives in order TO secure 100
per cent records When these larger
grand total will rise with leaps and
bounds and the city's quota of $1,254,-
100 should be left far behind. In ad-
dition to the amounts being taken out
with teams and in factories there are
many who have gone direct to the
banks to subscribe. Many of these
subscriptions have not been reported
as yet.
The employees of the Marcy Foun-
dry Works have again proven them
selves 100 per cent. bond buyers, the
forty eight men employed there hav-
ing subscribed to $4,000 worth of Vic
tory notes. In the four previous loans
the employees of this factory have had
100 per cent. records with total sub
scriptions of $2.300.-$3.0 900. $4,000 in
the first second, third and fourth
loans respectively.
The employees of the Barber Asphalt
Paving Company. including the oil
department, continue to boost their
total Victory loan subscriptions. $4,000
additional being reported over the
week end. making total of s26.s00
subscribed thus far in this loan,
which represents about 95 per cent OF
a perfect record.

the Raritan Copper Works, $1,000
