THE MUSIC TRADE REVIEW
EDISON FORCES PARTICIPATE IN LIBERTY LOAN PARADE
The employes of Thomas A. Edison, Inc.,
helped in a very material way to celebrate the
success of West Orange in going "over the top"
in the Third Liberty Loan drive. Robert A.
Bachman, vice-president and general manager
of the storage battery division, was grand mar-
shal, and one of his principal aides was William
Maxwell, vice-president and general of the mu-
sical phonograph division.
One of the features of the parade was the at-
tractive floats designed and built by Edison em-
ployes, a few of which are shown in the illus-
trations herewith, demonstrating the patriotism
of the entire Edison organization in a very
practical and forceful manner. The floats at-
tracted much favorable comment for their ar-
tistic appearance.
