Atlantic Coast Line clerks at Albany, Jessup vaidosta, Thomasville. and Brunswick Georgia, walked ont Friday and Satur day, according to a representative of the Brotherhood of Railway clerks here. This gentleman said that the strike ajt Albany was of the 100 per cent type, but that he did not know how many walked out at the other four places. This makes 22 points on, the Atlantic Coast Line where strikes or partial strikes are now In effect. There is no change in the situation here and the railroad has not made any statement suggesting a settle ment. The clerks are still claiming that they will win, and that other points will follow each day. They demand reeognition of their union and the reinstatement of the dismissed clerks, tip to this morning I no further developments in the strike situation on the Atlantic Coast Line system were reported. New Tork. Oct. 28. The Liberty loan engrossed the attention of financial in terests almost to the exclusion of ali other considerations and developments of last week. Complete returns from thatenormous undertaking will prob ably not be available for several days, but the success of the venture already Is regarded as marvelous. Liquidation of high-class shares, no tably those formerly represented In the international markets, occasioned much uneasiness in stock market cir cles' for a time, but the movement seemed to have run its course before the "end of the week. v Heaviness , of numerous special stocks, "especially those comprehended m.the list of public -utilities,, was at tributed to conditions more or less peculiar to that class of securities. Labor-problems also figured In the set back received by these issues. Steamship shares were at all times the steadiest and came forward with a rush in the latter part of the week. It is generally believed that substan tial disbursements of back dividends soon will be made to holders of ma rine preferred. - Traders are looking forward to Tuesday's meeting of the United States Steel directors when the financial statement for the third quarter will be issued and action taken on the com mon stock for that same period. Advices from principal reserve cen tres report irregular trade conditions and recent financier exhibits of rail roads and industrial corporations have offered little ground for encourage ment.

To the Editor of The Star: Our people, like the rest of the State and Nation, gave liberally of their time in the interest of the Liber ty bonds and Bladen and Bladenboro have more than done their part. Bla den is true to her traditions. Why should not al: true Carolinians be proud of tbrelr State?" She has ever been faithful to her country's call. Her sons .and daughters are worthy de scendants of those who shed the first. blood for democracy; These great principles for which our fathers shed their blood have been taught - from father to son and today our sons are marching over to France to stand side by side with the sons of our mother country to vindicate anew the justice of the same great principles that gave birth to our nation. Yes, the Blue and the Gray are there, all in khaki. What a glorious pic ture! If this will not move us out of self and into service, our conscienc has been seared by Kaiserism. Thank God, America Is aroused and Germany will hardly feel like comparing us to Rumanians. While Bladenboro ' is doing her bit for the nation she has been doing something for herself. Thursday, No vember 1, will be a Jubilation day with us. Tints will be the occasion of the dedication of our ' handsome school building, w nich has been erected at a cost of $30,000, modern and com modious in all appointments.
