Lieutenant Ira N. Sprecher, head of the war risk insurance section and third Liberty loan officer for the 34th division, reported late, Saturday night, that he had received applications for bonds of that loan to the amount of $60,000 and that he felt certain of getting $100,000. These subscriptions are absolutely voluntary on the part of the soldiers, because they, took nearly $2,000,000 of the second. – El Paso Herald Newspaper – April 29, 1917
