differences, inaccurate statements.
. OF course there is waste. SO
there is everywhere But is it not
a law Of nature that certain of IFS
products go back to the original ele-
ments and would not the energy de-
voted to preventing much of this
waste be of itself greater
waste?
"a favorite topic with those who
complain of the waste of everyday
life is that we are permitting count
less millions of horsepower to waste
in our streams and waterfalls every
year To be sure, the percent
age Of the free power existing in
waterfalls and streams and tides and
air currents which is now being util-
lied is yet very small; but why scold
about it when we are making more
progress in this line in a single de-
cade than was formerly made in
century?
Mr. Austin makes some interesting
statements regarding the fire losses
in this country as compared with
European losses; our so-called
"wasteful' methods Of mining; the
bad business methods" of railroads;
the waste resulting from smoking

ARE WE REALLY A WASTEFUL
PEOPLE?


Is wastefulness distinctively an
American habit? Oscar p. Austin,
chief of the United States Bureau of
Statistics, discussing the question in
the October number of Popular Me-
chanics Magazine declares that the
habit of knocking" everybody and
everything, of asserting that all the
things which are happening are
wrong, of bewailing conditions of to-
day as worse than those of yesterday
and worse among our own people
than those of some other country or
community, is too prevalent.
He says: 1.-THE tendency toward
the yellow in every discussion of
conditions in our own country Of
searching up and down the land to
find some means of leading Ameri-
cans to think i'll of their own people
and their own country, is unfortun-
ate. 1t is worse than that, it is pos
lively bad 1t DESTROYS respect for
our own people and their institutions,
it destroys pride of country it is de-
structiye of patriotism. And much
of ii, much Of the criticism of things
American, of the things of today as
compared with those of yesterday, is
based upon misconception, inaccurate
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1911-09-30

chimneys; the impoverishing of the
land by farmers; the destruction Of
the forests; the loss of human life by
accidents; the waste of water, etc.
In conclusion he argues:
ct is so easy to complain about
other peoples management. I know
of no easier or more delightful occu-
patton than that of managing other
peoples business at long distance
and without responsibility for the re-
suits. But the people who have built
up that business, who are RESPONSE
bic to themselves and their families
and their stockholders and their
stockholders families, and to the
public under the laws which govern
and directly control their work, are
much better able to Judge whether
this or that line of conduct or this or
that failure to utilize natural
product is really waste or whether
the elimination of that waste bv the
necessary outlay therefor would or
would not produce an equal or great
er waste Of the capital already ac-
cumulated. and for the conservation
of which they are RESPONSIBLE"
