Confidence Shown
Especial TO The Herald)

McALLEN, May 9.-That there
Is an overwhelming desire on the
part Of the stockholders Of the VAL
ley Building and Loan association
that the business or the organization
be continued was made known
Thursday by j. A. Frisby, president.
Inquiries were mailed out last
week and stockholders were asked
to designate whether they wished
the assets Of the company liquid
ated at once and its operations TO
caese or whether they wished to
take a 80 per cent reduction in
their deposits and promise not to
withdraw for two years. This also
affects bondholders in the same
manner. as it does those who have
loans from the association. In the
latter case the borrowers would ac-
cept a 80 per cent reduction in
their credits on their loans.
Under the latter plan the asso-
citation would continue to pay div
idends.
The answers to the inquiries are
coming In in large numbers and
officers stated that a tabulation OF
them shows overwhelmingly In fa-
vor OF continuing operations.
President Frisby stated that the
directors would likely be called to-
gether Saturday night and act To
hold the association together.

Edward Preble

and later became the flagship of the
American fleet.
Later when more ships were added
to the patriot navy, Barry was COM
missioned captain and placed in
command of the brig Lexington. His
first achievement in battle was the
capture of the British tender, Edward,
on April II, 1776. In reality this was
a small prize, for the Lexington was
a much larger ship than the Edward,
but the victory lives in history because
the Edward was the first ship ever
captured by commissioned officer of
the American navy.
The first American to hold the title
of commodore was Essex Hopkins, COM
mander-in-c chief of the first American
fleet which was assembled and manned
in December, 1775.
Hopkins individual record as
fighter was not particularly bril-
liant one and he was finally dismissed
from the service. There was no ques-
ton of his courage, however, and even
If he did not add anything to the
record of American naval heroism, his
name Is worthy Of rem entrance be-
cause he was our first high naval Of
ficer. His shortcomings were more
