James S. Alexander Emphasizes
Support Given to Bonds of
the Invaded Nation.

James S. Alexander, president of the
National Bank of Commerce. in New

through the Liberty Loan Committee:

after so brief an interval may give rise
to the opinion that the American peo-
pie are being subjected to a very heavy
financial strain. Comparatively speak.
ing, however, that is certainly not the
case.
AT present there exists a natural
feeling of pride and qualification over
the admirable response which the first
Liberty Loan received. 1t is estimated
that over four million people offered
three billion dollars to the government
at that time. Compared to this, how
ever, the response of the French peo-
pie to their great National Loan of
1917 has established record of
achievement which we have yet to
equal, taking into consideration the
relative wealth and population of the
two countries.
"This great French loan was an.
nounced in November, 1915, after if
teen months of war, during which
about four billion dollars had been
raised by short term loans and ad-
vances from the Bank of France and
the Bank of Algiers. Stimulated by
the presence of an invader on French
soil, bonds aggregating 1884, 559 ,097
were taken by 100000 persons in 81
days. Part of these bonds were taken
in exchange for earlier issues amount
ing to $1,355;454,5 500, which were con-
verified. AS the loan was issued at a
discount the amount actually subscrib-
ed was somewhat lower than the debt
acknowledged by the government. The
subscriptions were composed Of the

Charge WOMAN
With MISUSE
OF j. 5. FLAG

A penal summons has been served
on Mrs. Helen Jones of 7O9 Puuhale
road requiring her to appear in police
court tomorrow to answer to a charge
of desecrating the United States flag.
Mrs. Jones is said 10 have jumped
upon, torn and mutilated the colors
Of neighbor, John Baker. The flag
fell in her yard.
Telling her side of the story to the
Star-Bulletin this morning Mrs. Jones
said the flag blew in her yard and fell
upon some plants. She called to the
neighbors to come into her yard, so
she says, and take it off. Instead they
started pulling the rope which would
carry it to the top of the flag pole and
fearing, according to her version, that
it would tear up her plants, she cut it
from the rope. Then she rolled it up
and placed it where the ncighbors
could come and get it,
Il am as good an American as any
Cne," Mrs. Jones declared this morn
ing. Il have travelled all over the
United States and am proud Of my
country and my flag. The Stars and
Stripes would never be insuted by
me. The flag in question was not
damaged and is flying from its usual
place today"

Big VOTE IS CAST
AT QUIET ELECTION
Republicans Confident Mayor
Lane is Reelected and EX-
pect Majority of Board

Good weather early in the morning,
even If bit showery, and a lively in
terest by the people in the general
election, with hot fighting in spots, Is
bringing to the polls at the close Of
the city campaign today a large vote.
Predictions were made early this
morning that at least Is and probably
so to IS per cent Of the city registra-
ton would be cast. As toe day pro-
crossed 1t was expected that the ad-
vance predictions would be upheld.
As usual in Honolulu elections in
late years, the day was quiet around
the polls. There was virtually no dis
order, and only few cases of drunk
enness were reported.
From the start, the fight for sheriff
was the feature of the day, with Rose
calling on the police department to
get out and use every possible bit of
influence to reflect him. It was re-
ported that in the country precincts
the deputy sheriffs were also working
hard for the sheriff.
Rose has probably the largest per
sonal organization in the election to-
day. 1t is estimated that not less
than 90 autos are used by his work
ers, and there were "a ready to start
out at this morning.
In the fifth district, it is said some
who call themselves Republicans are
working openly for Rose. Willie"
Crawford and a large group of his
political and social associates are said
to be among these. It was said that
