the increase in their expenses due TO
running of an automobile has not
been in proportion to their Increase

Many owners, AS is well known, have

impairment of savings is perhaps the
most serious factor, since the new
supply of capital comes only from

it follows that capital for developing

an element of some consequence in

OUR ARMY, The JAPANESE
and HAWAII.

Statements of fact no longer rise
to the dignity Of war scare.
That is about the situation as re-
CARDS the remark of General Carter
before the House Committee the other
day.
A large number of Japanese and
former soldiers are present in the
Territory of Hawaii They are pur-
suing the arts of peace. No one dis
putcs that fact.
If these people were called upon by
their home government to fight, they
would do so. If their government
called upon them to fight the forces
OF the United States, they would do
so. No one doubts that
Consequently II is the natural, plain
ordinary business of the American
nation in preparing for defense in
time of trcss to look such facts
squarely in the face and make plans
accordingly.
This does not mean that we fear
war at the present time or that one
is in sight. II is simply the evidence
of good, plain horsesensc on the part
of the officers Of the army
If the remarks act as n jar on the
nerves of some very good people. 1t
is because they are learning some
thing about which they have been
grossly ignorant in the past.
As for Hawaii, neither the Americans
nor the Japanese are worrying over
the situation. That does not signify
that we are asleep to the possibilities,
however. And every American should
be thankful that the officers of the
army have not been so squelChed by
impractical peace advocates that they
hesitate to speak out
TO the leaders of industry, however,
| words like those of General Carter
have a significance that should not be
lost sight of.
Make up your mind that the policy
of the United States army as regards
Hawaii will be favorable to the citizen
! population as against a preponder-
ance of any single nationality OF
aliens. This is also just plain COM
mon sense.

WHAT The People save IN

the money goes to" in periods of eX-
ccptional prosperity.
This Is one of the queries very fire.
quently made in local circles when
money Is very plentiful and still the
amount available for permanent in
vestment does not prove so large as
would naturally be expected.
The Clews circular states that
1920 ,OOO, 900 was TO be disburscd the
first of the year and then puts the
query, "Will the usual proportion OF
this sum come into Wall street for
permanent Investment"
The answer is instructive.
There Is some reason to expect
that 1t will not The main reason is
the high cost of living for all classes.
Whether this is due TO high prices, to
extravaganza or to higher standards
of living matters little. People are
certainly saving less, and as nj! new
capital must come from the nations
savings II follows that there will be
a smaller proportion applicable for
investment purposes than usual

still the Advertiser cant get away
from the idea that politics in Homo
lulu is practically question Of
money" Let It keep on thinking that
way If it likes. The people who do
things in this city know that politics
here is purely a question of MEN.
and we'll get good results If the MEN
begin early and use common sense
in the primaries, the conventions and
the campaign. The money question
will easily take care of itself. What
the Advertiser really wants to say
but doesn't know how is, that lot OF
the silk-stockinG gentry wake up at
the last minute and try TO buy their
way through to cover mp the mis-
takes resulting solely from their own
laziness and pompous indifference.
As most of the people of this stripe
are in the Advertiser circle, 1t might
naturally hesitate TO call a spade a
spade but be glad to rush in and call
the Bul letin names.
