The Washington Times publishes an
illustrated article by Edgar Caypless on
Hawaii's volcanoes. The opening par.
agraph is as follows: The appalling
disasters of st. Pierre and St. Vincent,
and the succeeding disturbances in vol.
canic regions, warrant grave concern
regarding the safety of the Hawaiian
Islands; with those having ties or in.
terests there, II must assume the i'm
portanCe OF fear. The recent and null.
tiplying activities in what may be
termed the volcanic belt OF the world
Justify serious apprehension as to their
possible, If not probable, effect or in
fuence upon the Hawaiian group.
When Caypless returns the business
men are likely to request him to SLOW
cause why he should not compete In
the Laughing Jackass class, that has
been filling the Mainland mind with
fearsome ideas about Hawaii's vol
canoes
