Police Hold Wounded Man
Newark Red Cross Officer Sus-
picious of "SoIdier''

NEWARK, July 27.-With his left
hand heavily swathed in bandages,
Herbert John Evans, who came here
two weeks ago, won much sympathy
with his tale of sufferings endured
while soldier for the Allies in France.
Evans admitted he had been honor
ably discharged from the First Division
Engineers, British Army, after he had
been wounded four times in the back
and had lost the power of his left hand.
So pathetic was his story that when
he applied to the Red Cross for aid
Mrs. N. B. Brown. secretary, started to
secure passports to England for him
His remarks, however, made her sus-
plclous and she notified the police. His
rooms at ITO Bloomfield Street were
searched Cards were found describing
him as lawyer in Manhattan. There
were also letters from girls in various
parts of the country the police said,
processing their love for him.
Evans. who claims to be an Austral-
ian, was held pending an investigation.

THE PEOPLE ARE SAVING

1t has been pointed out as evidence
of how strongly the duty of saving
had been impressed upon the English
people by the war-savings campaign
in that country that in the year 1916,
although purchasing billions of dol
lars of war bonds, the small savings
bank depositors in England increased
their deposits in savings banks over
$60,000,000, this in face of the fact
that the English have been noted as a
spending rather than as saving peo-
pie.
1t seems that similar process has
taken place in America. Two great
Liberty Loans were noated in the year
just closing, and nearly $4,000, 000,-
900 of liberty Loan Bonds were pur-
chased by the people. Yet instead of
being depleted the savings bank de-
posts of the country have been IN
creased. The president of one of the
large New York savings banks is
quoted as saying on December 20,
1917:
zone of the most remarkable things
about the Liberty Loan campaigns is
the small effect they have had on the
savings banks accounts, which show
ar increase. This we may lay to the
appeals made to the American people
10 purchase the bonds out Of their
