A motion picture explaining the complete history of our entry in- to the war and an interesting talk by Frank Kelly, chairman of the War Bond Committee, praising the workers for their splendid record to date and acknowledging their grand campaign efforts in the past, started the Drive on its initial success.
 The first few days proved what E. B. can and will do when given the opportunity and before half of the meetings were held, over five thousand dollars in Cash Bonds were issued and several de- partments had over subscribed their individual quotas.
 Each and every employee who subscribed either through payroll deductions or by purchase of Cash Bonds received a Fifth War Loan badge Illustrating a $1OO war Bond signifying they have Suo- scrilbed at Electric Boat.
 A~ warded to each employee 8 post card message suggesting a method of Buying that Extra Bond" as a grand way to Invest in the h. vasion.

ial building has been assured
by the pledge OF $4,000 and
