UNCLE SAM TO HONOR
EVERY BOND BUYER
Pretty Flag Of Red, White and Blue
for Liberty Campaign.

Perhaps no one feature of the COM
ing Liberty Loan drive is causing
SO much favorable comment as the
Honor Flag that will have an import
ant part in the campaign for the
Loan. A badge Of honor for deeds to
be accomplished in subscribing for
bonds, it has already created q great
friendly rivalry between cities, towns
and counties in every state in the
Union, and will undoubtedly prove a
mighty stimulant to subscribing the
loan, which is the end to be desired.
Briefly, the Honor Flag system, as
explained by J. H. Burton, q salesman
in New York state, and father Of the
flag system, who has been visiting the
headquarters Of the various Federal
Reserve districts, is this:
er and three vertical blue stripes on
It will be given each bond subscriber
during the drive. This Is to be hung
or pasted in the window Of the sub
scribers home, or In his place Of
business. At the bottom Is written
the name Of the subscriber, and in case
Of business firm, the amount subscrib-
ed.
In each town, city, or other COM
munity that is q subdivision Of any
Liberty Loan division, there il kept in
. public place an honor roll in the
form Of large window sheet. At the
bottom Of this are TO be printed at the
close Of each day Of the campaign the
names Of subscribers in that COM
munity, alphabetically arranged.
To each community as it reaches its
allotted quota Of bonds will be given q
cloth honor nag, 80 Z so inches, to be
flown from . public flagstaff in that
city. To each state going over its
quota 4 larger flag will be issued
The Treasurery Department has
further agreed to reward the efforts Of
the early subscribers by having the
flag raising at each Of the winning
communities photographed for the
moving picture companies, and these
pictures will be shown throughout the
country simultaneously. This Is only
one more phase Of the competitive
feature. A plan is being considered
Of issuing q star for the flags whose
winners succeed in doubling their
quota.
Mr.. Burton had the honor flag copy
rigkted and the copyright turned over
to the government.

KAISER'S CASE NOT
FOR SIMPLE COURT
English Statesman Wants Govern
mentS to Put German Leaders
Away For Safe Keeping.

London, Dec. II (British Wireless
Service. --Responsi bility for punish
ing the former German emperor and
other high German officials for crimes
committed during the war must rest
with governments and not with jur-
lists, according to the Marquis Of
Crewe, former secretary of state for
the colonies, in a letter published in
the Westminster Gazette. He writes
THE atrocities in Belgium, the ill
treatment of prisoners, and the ex-
ecutiols OF Captain Fryatt and Miss
Edith CaVell are acts that can be
brought home to the individual per-
sons concerned, and punishment can
be inflicted by tribunals. When, how
ever, we go beyond these persons, re-
SpOnsibility is altered. The former
German emperor and the higher Ger
man politicians must be surrendered
first and then punished by executive
acts For this procedure there are
most ample precedents. These GRIM
inals can be put away where they will
have no further chance of bringing
mischief on the world, or they can be
executed"
