The Star Spang!ed Banner
in France!

General Pcrshlng and some
American soldiers are now in
France, preparatory to the cam
paign of the United States against
the Triple Entente.
Other soldiers will be trans
ported as rapidly as is consistent,
and with what rapidity they are
transported we will not know, nor
is it prudent that we should
know, for people who are not
closely acquainted with the diff
fcrcnt situations that present
them} eHes would doubtless feel
discouraged at conditions that
really amount to little or nothing
detrimental to US, and over
exalted at things that would not
amount to much in our favor.
In this world-contlict the entire
English speaking world is align
ed, with others, against a common
enemy and for a common cause:
the cause of Christianity, embrac-
ing as it does all the principles of
morality, fairness. mercy and
equality 4. seaeRy8 BY tp4 Son
of God.
But primarily the United States
is going to fight to redress aud
discontinue the wholesale murder
of our people and to escape the
possibility of German rule.
The sword is the epitomc of
cruelty, and war is adverse to the
principles taught by the Prince Of
Peace, who died for mankind and
in whose name we now pray; but
in centuries past, when conditions
involving principles similar to
ours today arose, the Christian
nations fought and by Divine
help defeated their naughty and
merciless enemies.
America believes her cause IS
Just, and believes it sufficiently
to- bleed and die for it. The
Kingdom of God and His Son
has from the beginning of the
world protected those who
were right God is our king; His
forces are stronger than these of
wanda ism, and He will give us
victory

Ira D. Garfield, for many years con

has been appointed a sergeant in the
ambulance corps, and IS in training
on Long Island. Garfield left Homo

in Lock Haven, Pa. When an ambu'

Garfield was one of the first TO join.
He expects to be sent to Europe very
shortly. 4.

ASKS LENIENCY
FOR GUARDSMEN

Leniency on the part of local firms
who may have employees among the
japanese company that is at present
patroling Nuuanu watershed is urged
by Lieut.. Frank E. Midliff.
Lieut.. Midkfff says that all of the
men are anxious to serve in this call
but some of them are fearful that
they will have no jobs left when they
return to the city. Capt. w. G. Allen
is i'll in the hospital at present.
Arrangements were made today
whereby squads would be on duty
three days and off four. The Japan
csc are said to be taking hold we'll
in this new task. II is not known yet
just how long they will be kept on the
patrol, but 1t is probable that after
a few weeks they will be relieved by
another company, and that this gem
eral system of relief will be followed
as long as a patrol is considered ne
cessary. This will be until the new
chlorination plant is in, at least.
Lieut.. d. l.. MacKaye is in the field
with the company. Lieut.. MacKaye
has had valuable experience for this
patrol in his duties for some time as
an official of the board of health.

UTILITY firms
DO NOT EXPECT :
SHORTAGE
Local Gas, Electric and Carrier
Companies All Have Long
Time Oil Contracts

That the oil shortage which Is now
threatening the public utilities cor
Porations in Hilo has not yet, reached
Honolulu is evidenced by the an
nouncement yesterday OF four large
local public serving concerns that
they are plentifully supplied with fuel
oil and that they have received no
intimation that this supply Is to be
materially reduced or cut OF entirely.
The Honolulu Gas Co, large user
of oil, reports that il has had no
trouble so far" This company Is be-
ing supplied with all the oil 1t can
use, having a longtime contract with
the Union Oil Co. The lilo Gas Co..
however, recently requested loan OF
oil but the local concern was unable
TO fulfill it, having no surplus on hand.
Another longtime oil contract Is
held by the Honolulu Rapid Transit
& Land Co, which reports that II Is
experiencing no trouble in securing
the fuel. I'VE have received no mo-
tiee that this supply is TO be reducrf
said the acting manager yesterday.s(
Announcements similar to the fore
going are made by the Oahu Railway
& Land Co. and the Hawaiian Elec-
trict Co. Both these concerns have
longtime contracts and are having
no trouble securing OIL. -
The concerns in Honolulu which
have suffered from lack Of fuel oil are
those having no contracts running any
great length of time. The White Seal
laundry was recently forced to close
down on account of shortage OF oil.
and has not since reopened. A large
number of Chinese and Portuguese
bakeries also suffered, but their trou.
bles have been overcome by the In.

SELL Fish BY
pound, NOT BY
Count Child

81 used to be like lot of people who
talk through the press; l thought |
knew something about the fish busl-
ness" says J. F. Child, assistant exc
cutive officer of the territorial food
commission. But the farther you get
into the matter, the more it becomes
like Chinese puzzle, and less clear
becomes the solution Of the high price
of fish problem.
1T is very we'll to say that the
food commission should establish a
lower price. Suppose we did. Sup
pose We cut the price in two. The
fishermen are not making as much
now as they could make in canneries
or on plantations. If their income is
reduced, then the supply of fish is go
ing to be reduced. 1t is easier to be
critical than to be correct.
"The best suggestion know of to
avoid overcharges on fish, If there are
any, would be to publish the auction
price of fish on a blackboard in each
of the public markets, and make a
regulation that fish be sold by the
pOuuu anu uoL ny Couul. DuI WHICH,
this suggestion is put up to competent
attorneys, they doubt the legal aspects
Of such regulation and the authority
of the commission to make such a
regulation. Therefore | have been
looking around to find some methods
of increasing the supply of fish.
MANY people think that because
there is plenty of salt water in the
ocean, there should be plenty Of fish
But the fishermen say that this is not
so. There is a lack. they declare, OF
banks or feeding grounds near the
islands
