New England Leads in Liberty Loan Drive As Campaign Ends

New England shows a strong Liberty Loan performance with a total near 337,069,000 up to Thursday night and an additional 60,000,000 expected Friday. The region surpasses the first loan by about 7,000,000, with major contributions from confectionery firms and local unions. A Kaiser dummy figure drew crowds at Liberty Cottage as bond buyers smashed it, and voices from Boston University and St Alphonsus Association joined rallies. Sergeant Arthur Guy Empey spoke at Faneuil Hall urging timely bond purchases and Jordan Marsh distributed free copies of Over the Top to buyers.
