and pressed those on board with anx-

1t was learned later that Mort has
been very busy In behalf OF the Higher
Wage Association on Maui. He has
been seen passing back and forth on
the boats often, talking with the men
on the plantations and collected money
for the strikers fund. In fact a prom.

he has been the most active worker

Mort has the reputation In Lahaina
Of being quite smart, and has many
friends among the Americans as well
as the Japanese people. He has been
the official Interpreter for the Circuit
Court at Lahaina, and as such has
always borne a good reputation. He
is said to have a bad temper and when
aroused is a bad man to fool with.
Great surprise was expressed on Maui

said:

ignorant man would not have been
