sound of the bell had died away and
while the nation was ringing with
bell-bursts of patriotism the assem

gled Banner."
A feature of the event was a scene
enacted in Richmond, Va. in St.
John's Church, where Patrick Henry
uttered the Immortal words, "Give
me liberty or give me death." Mayor
George Ainslee, of Richmond, at 12
o'clock, after sounding an appeal for
Richmond to double its allotment,
handed to a messenger a telegram
of greeting for Mayor Smith, of Phil
adelphia, which was wired to Inde
pendence Hall at the Liberty Bell.
The Mayor replied while standing by
the bell.
Among recent subscriptions to the
Liberty Loan are: SB,OOO, from rail
road men of the city, solicited by
Harry Leonard, in charge of a com
mittee working in the yards; Key
stone Lodeg, No. 42, Brotherhood of

Washington, D. C., June 14.—The

officials were compiling the latest re
turns of subscriptions from the
twelve reserve districts, showing a
steady climb toward the $2,000,000,000
mark.

tal yet to be reported to the Treas
ury for the last day at approximately
$200,000,000. Official compilations
were not complete at noon.
Such reports as had been received,
however. Indicated substantial prog
ress within the past twenty-four
hours. The subscription books will
close at noon to-morrow.
Only the New York district, ac
cording to the latest available esti
mates. had exceeded the minimum
allotment. Other districts were near
ing the minimum and officials hoped
Supplemental Lists to
Be Made of Additional
Draft Registrations
Because of the number of men com
ing in to register at the County Com
missioners' office, County Clerk Ed.
H. Fisher, clerk of the county draft
registration board, will make a sup
plemental list of these.
This was decided this morning so
that the totals for the various county
districts can be computed. These have
been changed at least six times. Sheriff
W. W. Caldwell said, because of addi
tional registrations.
The city boards are preparing to
post alphabetical lists of the men who
registered in each precinct in the city.
I These will be placed at each of the
registration places, for reference for
residents in each district.
