to provide collapsible fire escape

hinged to the sill in such manner
that by opening the window and fold
ing the container on its hinges the

stole OUTSIDE D. G.;
IS CONVICTED HERE
Trial of 7. D. Williams. Auto Thief
First of This Kind.

Thomas d. Williams was convict
ed by a jury in Justice Stafford's
court for stealing an automobile
outside the District and having 1t
in his possession here. His case
was the first one of the kind ever
tried in Washington.
In 1911 Congress passed a law
making it felony for persons hav-
ing property in their possession in
the District that had been stolen
from any other State or Territory.
On October IA, 1916, while Mann
and wife. OF 1888 Sixteenth street
northwest were attending a social
function at the Chevy Chase Club,
Williams stole their machine from
the club grounds, and brought it
to this city where it was repainted
and camouf1aged otherwise to such
an extent that he used it for some
time around the city for hacking
purposes without detection.
The owners chauffeur, Thomas F.
Appett, recognized the stolen prop
erty in spite of its disguise, and
notified police headquarters of his
discovery.
Detective Boyle was put on the
case and soon caught Williams with
the car. The indictment and con-
viction of Williams followed. As
sistant United States Attorney Will
liam E. Leahy conducted the prose-
cution. while williams was defend
ed by NJ. E. O'Brien. He will be
sentenced next Saturday.

LIBERTY BONDS
AT BELOW PAR
NORMAL now
Intensive Buying During
Drive Has Natural
Reaction Now

Mr.. Liberty Bond Buyer. you
probably read this story in the pa
pers the other day:
New York, May 10.-"Third Lib
erty Loan Bonds appeared on the
open market for the first time to-
day. Sales. $1.542.0O0. They open
ed at S99.1O; low was SsS.60."
Now what you wondered was:
''why such depreciation just after
we cease proclaiming that these
bonds are the most reliable invest
ment on earth?'
Reliable Investment.
That's easily explained. But first
get this-those bonds are the most
reliable investment on earth and
those sales on the New York mar
ket do not mean that your bond 1.
worth less than the 500 you paid
for it.
The following statement by a
man who has been in the bond busi-
ness for more than twenty years
will show you why they sometimes
sell under par now:
When the Third Liberty Loan
campaign just ended. the 4A per
cent bonds purchased by some
twenty million Americans at par
are now selling on the New York
exchange at lesse than par.
The answer is simple-When you
have just eaten your ill of rhubarb
pie, you don't went any more
rhubarb pie for a while.
Everyone supposedly bought lib
erty bonds up to his. limit; there
fore, when someone desires to dis
pose of these bonds for one reason
or another, he is offering them in
a market in which there is a great
supply and practically no demand.
Naturally, he sells his bonds at
somewhat of a sacrifice.
The very nature of a campaign
by the government to sell its own
bonds, such as has just closed, was
designed to sell as many bonds as
possible to as many people as pos
sibIe. II was announced that over
subscriptions would be accepted.
and all bonds seld would be deliver
ed by the government. As result
of the strenuous operations OF COM
mittees all over the country. the
bonds were marketed to a point OF
saturation-
1t was not to be expected that this
campaign should be continued be-
YOld the time set Dy lHc SONCAA
ment. Advertising. selling-in fact,
all activities in behalf of the loan
suddenly ceased May 4. The con-
sequence is that the bonds them
selves are placed upon their own
feet. They must now operate un-
der the law of supply and demand.
The demand is naturally now at the
minimum.
The bonds were sold by the govern
ment with the expectation that pur-
chasers would hold them as invest
ments. unless extraordinary circum-
stances forced them to sell.
The citizens who does hold his bonds
until we have won the war will, so
far as any human being can fOresee,
find them selling far above par, just
as government bonds have sold well
above par in the past.
In proportion to the total amount
Of bonds sold, the number traded in
in the market at this time is neg
Hgible. And the circumstance that the
market quotation on these bonds is
below par at this time has no ma
terial bearing on the fundamental fact
that United States Liberty Bonds are
indeed the safest and best investments
in the world today.
