The yield to buyer is about 7 per cent. A large number of bonds have been subscribed for. Secretary Wilson of the Department of Labor is in New Haven. today speaking in the interest of the liberty loan.

He is to return to Washington tomorrow. Employes of the bureau of engraving and printing have, to date, subscribed more than $110,000 to the liberty bond I issue. It is the expectation that the total will reach $125,000 or more. Pension Office Employes Set a Patriotic Example in Subscriptions to Bonds More than $100,000 worth of liberty loan bonds have been subscribed by employes of the pension bureau, and the work is not yet completed, it was learned today. Officials declared today that if the) success of the loan is to be determined by the number of participants rather than the amount subscribed, and the spirit of the nation judged by the support given the bond issue by the men and women who make individual sacrifices, the clerical force of the pension bureau has set an example not alone for the federal departments, but for the country at large.

With the support of Secretary Lane and through the efforts of Commissioner Saltzgaber, who made a number of patriotic addresses, the 900 employes of the bureau have aubscrtbed to a total of $103,100 worth of liberty bonds. The total number of eubacribera to date ia 653; at 224; at $100, 119; average per employe. average per subscriber. 1157. Seventy-two per cent of the employes are subscribers.

The same ratio continued among the federal employes, it is pointed out, in this city and throughout nation would raise fifty million dollars, or one-fortieth of the entire amount of the first liberty loan. The officials of the pension bureau state that many of the subscriptions have been made by clerks receiving meager salaries; that actual sacrifices are involved and renunciation for a year ot the little luxuries of life. APPEAL TO BUY BONDS NOT MEANT AS DEMAND Secretary Redfleld So Advises Employes of Department of Commerce, Adding It Is a Duty. The campaign the sale of liberty loan bonds is in no sense a demand, but only an appeal for a voluntary act arising from the patriotism of every man and woman, Secretary Redfleld advised employes of the Department of Commerce today, in a statement issued "for the benefit of those who may be of the impression that it is demanded that they shall buy a liberty loan bond, and that unless they do so they may be subject to discrimination." The advice of Secretary Redfleld is believed by those conducting the bond campaign to be applicable to employes in all the government departments and to the residents of the city at large. "The success of the great liberty loan does not depend in the strictect sense upon the total value of bonds sold," Secretary Redfleld says.

"If it were more than fully taken solely through the great banks of the country, that would not be in the highest sense successful. If the great manufacturing houses and business concerns were by themselves alone to subscribe for more than all of it, that would not be the fullest success. Greatest Success in Numbers. "The highest result, the greatest success, is found in the number of persons; that subscribe to the loan, for this is the one way to show that the heart of the people is behind their government. It would be well from this viewpoint if it were possible for the whole great loan to be taken in $50 bonds.

It would in the same sense be well if there were so many subscriptions of less than; $1,000 that nobody could get more than that. "There is Just one way in which the whole people can best speak through this loan, and that is by making the largest possible number of subscriptions, and. therefore, no one need hesitate because he or she can take but little. "It is the small subscribers that are wanted, in order to show the world that this is in the strictest sense an act of the whole American people, who thus support with their means. Best Investment of Kind.

"The boys over at Fort Myer are giving themselves. Should we do less than to give as we are able? But giving is not required; it is an investment best of its is offered." Those to whom the purchase of a bond would be a burden heavier than they could carry need not feel that their motive of patriotism is at all questioned, the Secretary advises. "It is only suggested to those who are in any degree capable of buying that they should consider it their duty to their country now to buy a liberty loan WOMEN PERFECT PLANS TO AID LIBERTY LOAN Secretary McAdoo Expresses Appreciation of Large Subscriptions Already Hade. The woman's liberty loan committee, of which Mrs. William G.

McAdoo Is chairman, has perfected plans for the co-operation of women throughout the land for the sale of bonds. At a meeting yesterday Mrs. Frank A. Vanderllp of New York announced that women of New York have subscribed 31,000,000. Mrs.

George T. Guernsey of Kansas, president general of the D. A. also announced $1,000,000 in subscriptions from members of that organization. Mrs.

Francis L. Higginson of Boston told of organization for the work in New England. Secretary McAdoo addressed the committee. He expressed the gratification of the government for the patriotic work undertaken. A letter from a prisoner in the Connecticut state penitentiary asks where and how to place a subscription for $1,500 worth of liberty bonds.

"As I am unable in my present position to be of service to my country in the manner in which I prefer," he wrote, "I should very much like to purchase two libertv loan bonds, one of $1,000 and one of $500, and help out a little in that way." LABOR AND LIBERTY LOAN. Samuel Gompers Urges Subscription to Extent of Workers' Ability.

Samuel Gompers. president of the American Federation i of L.abor.

today addressed an appeal I to unions. 1 "To buy a liberty bond, said the statement, "is to support our country and to subscribe to the ideals which our country is forced to maintain by military force. Individuals and organizations have testified to their patriotic desire to serve by subscribing for these bonds, including labor men and labor organizations. "All workers and labor organizations will find it advantageous to support this loan as extensively as lies within their financial ability.
