Most Of the Foreign Press
wi Is Loyal to America

AS TO the present attitude of the for
eign language newspapers toward the war
and the policy Of the United States, most
of them are lining up Loyalty behind the
government. With the exception Of por-
tons of the German press here the ma
jority Of the foreign periodicals and dailies
are faithfully supporting this country,
and some of them show no less patriotism
than the most patriotic native papers.
The Italian newspapers, the most i'm
portant of which are the "Giornale,"
"Araldo," "Bolletino della Sera," "Pro-
gresso Italo-Americano," TELEGRAPH"
"Cittadino," "Follia di New York; and
"Colonia,o almost without exception share
the views Of the government and indorse
all it's policies The new "peace kites"
coming from the Central Powers, calcu-
lated TO awaken sentiment for peace in
this country, have found little encourage
ment in the Italian press in America.
The |"Ciornale Italiano" does not be-
lieye that peace can be made with Ger
many until Germany's military ambition
Is ouenched. The "Giornale' sees no pos
sibility of democratizing Germany except
after a military defeat:

seen from the same edition of the "Arbei-

With the Liberty loan campaign half
over today, efforts are being made to
enlist the man on the street. The big
corporations, banking houses and bust
ness firms have already come forward
and subscribed to the second Liberty
loan, Sixty authorized bond statesmen
were sent out on the streets at noon
to collect subscriptions from the every
day businessman.
A meeting of the sales committee
was held this morning and the sales
men authorized to go out and collect
the money. If a man doesn't want
to buy the bond outright, the sales
men will take his pledge. Each bond
salesman will wear a white ribbon,
bearing upon it the picture of the
Statue of Liberty, and underneath,
the words, Official Sales Agent"
When a man buys a Liberty bond he
will be presented with a small, blue
button. This button shows that the
wearer has responded to the call of
his country. If persons have already
subscribed to bonds and have not re-
ceived buttons, they should go to their
bank and secure them.
President J. F. c. Hagens of the
Chamber of Commerce, in whose
rooms the sales committee met this
morning. urged that a great effort be
made to secure subscriptions from the
ordinary businessman.
Mr.. Hagens said that H. Hackfeld
and Co. would carry their employees so
as to enable them to buy bonds On the
instalment plan. Managers of planta-
tons controlled by Hackfeld and Co
have been instructed to do all in their
power to assist the men in the fields
to buy bonds.
A cablegram received today from the
headquarters Of the National Chamber
of Commerce was read at this morn.

All Willing TO Work
Investigation shows that most OF
the able-bodied males of the territory
who are willing to work at all are now
working at rather high degree OF
efficiency land for the most part slim
ulated by bonuses for full month s
work. at work directly or closely con-
nected with the production Of our food
products (Honolulu itself and our
other smaller towns are little more
than offices and storehouses for sup
plying these industries), or in work
connected with serving the military
forces and the construction work at
the army and navy posts.
while there are altogether too
many petty storekeepers and com:
paratiyely large proportion Of yard

our shipments to the mainland of
food products amounting to $2T6.73
per capita for every man, woman and
child in the territory, as against i'm
ports from the mainland of $3l.30 per
capita, show comparatively high Of.
ficiency.
We take 1t for granted that the
movement of these food products to
the mainland is considered in Wash
ington of such Importance that ton
mage of some kind will continue to
be provided, particularly as the 200
miles of water between here and San
Francisco is perhaps from every an

the globe.

Cut Down importations
This food commission is endeaVor-
ing TO cut down the need OF these food
importations by stimulating the pro
duction of some Of these commodities
here. by increasing the use of home
grown foods and by reducing the use
of white flour, as we'll as the general
encouragement of waste. We have
however. from the beginning taken the
ground that Hawaii's main function in
this crisis is the production OF sugar
and that our duty was TO increase the
local food supply as much as we could
in addition to maintaining our present
food output rather than to divert la
Dor or land now productivity engaged
tc other and less productive and more
hazardous forms OF agriculture.
I'VE cannot in this space go into
land matters farther than to say that
the accessible lands, lands near rail-
roads, harbors or good roads are al
most all in productive use, and while
there are considerable remote areas in
the mountain sides which, were labor
available, could produce corn, pota-
toes, 6IC., YET OH dIOOuhI Va
tation difficulties and costs are from
an economic standpoint far more dis
tant from Honolulu and our other
small centers Of population than the

I'm spite of the difficulties, however,
a noteworthy increase in the produc.
ton of corn, potatoes, sweet potatoes
and onions is taking place, as well as
a healthy increase in the amount OF
beans and other garden produce grown
by plantation laborers and school
children and by householders for their
own use. Our county agents are do

enough water to almost cover the
meat, cover closely and allow plenty
of time to cook. When done remove
from the rooster, thicken the liquor,
adding whatever flavor and sea-
soning you like. With a sharp knife
(and a dull carving knife is a most
expensive thing as it wastes the meat
slice the meat thinly, packing in the
casserole, adding to each layer of meat
enough gravy to cover. When the
meat is all sliced and packed in the
casserole set in back in a slow oven
to keep warm. This makes the finest

agine, and it is economical for many
reasons which you will appreciate
when you try it. And dad is SO
pleased because the carving has been
