ENGLAND

A glance at the above column
becomes doubly interesting when
it is seen that all the above oc-
|cupations do not enjoy a cent of
protection. In all classes of labor
the american wage and the
"American Standard is q reality
except those classes employed by
the trusts. The trusts make all
the noise about "American wages"
until they get a tariff wall. Then
they proceed to pay less wages
and impose worse conditions than
men anywhere work under.
The steel trust investigation, and
the Lawrence mill strike proved
beyond the shadow of a doubt
that protection does not mean
good wages in this country. In
practically every line of industry
outside Of those controlled by the
tariff trusts American wages are
higher than they are abroad. The
trusts work their men harder and
pay them less than men similarly
employed abroad receive.
The watch trusts report, in
view Of this fact, is very likely to
prove one of the best arguments
for the removal of the tariff on
watches, instead Of increasing the
present rates, as the trust urges.

Express Company High Fl.
nance.

The House Committee on In
terstate Commerce has reported
favorably q bill placing express
Icompanies doing an Interstate
business under the control of the
Interstate Commerce Commission.
| It is about time. Reports Of
the companies for 1910 show the
book value of all property and
equipment devoted to the ex-
press business in that year to
have been S25, 1926, ,668. Yet the
profits were S13, 1892 ,Ost-53 per
cent. of of the total value of the
Investment.
Nor is the express business one
in which large amount of money
is sunk in the period of establish
ment. AS the Railway Age Gazette
well remarks: "Given express
privileges over transportation
lines, the express business may be
4 conducted with but small capital
invested"
i 1t is interesting to observe that
4 the S2O4, 1000, 900 Of assets of the
companies included bonded debt
to almost double the amount oil
the total plant used, $4,000, ,O0C
A worth Of stocks owned, $45, 900, ,00(
in cash and current assets and
S14,0O0,0OO worth Of "other perma-
nent Investments"
That the companies have not
found 1t necessary to fall back or
the fiction of high franchise costs
is shown by the fact that "fran.
. chises, good will, etc.," are listed
at less than S11, 100000.
Strange things are .done in ex.
press company finance. One
company accumulates more thar
: 81, 100000 worth Of new equip.
ment and charges it to Cooperating
J expenses. The Wells Fargo
Company, on December %, 1909
! declared q special dividend Of sOC
! per cent!

Secretary Reads Annual Report Which is
Filled With Interesting Facts

The annual report of the SeCre-
tary of the Hawaiian Board, Rev.
w. B. Oleson, was interesting and
suggestive as we'll as very en-
couraging.
The total membership of the
churches under h e Hawaiian
Board or affiliated with it is 1894
about 5000 of which is Hawaiian,
distributed among o8 churches.
Attention was called to the
growing need for fresh material
for recruits, the ranks of the Ha-
i waiian ministry being thinned by
death and other causes.
The Japanese churches show a
membership of nearly 1900 with a
net gain for the year of 154.
Large a II d important advances
are being made in this work and
J many very excellent men are in
the field or in training for it.
A veteran leader in the mission
ary work who has devoted a long
life to it on two continents, Rev.
o. H. Gulick, now retires largely
from the active service and will
devote his attention to the prepar-
alton of a History of the mission
ary work on Hawaii.
Four new church buildings are
reported, one, and probably the
most beautiful, being that at Hama.
lei now awaiting dedication.
Attention was called t o the
growing need of social settlement
work especially in and about Ho-
nolulu whittier so large a proper
ton of the population steadily
gravitates an d comprehensive
plans for meeting the needs oi
this work were reported.
The Kohala Seminary for girls
was commended especially as {
most worthy institution badly il
need of aid. 1t was hoped tha'
! some generous giver might make
it the object of suitable endow
ment.
1t is significant of the range
and extent of the work of the Ha,
waiian Board that the Treasurer re
ported an expenditure of ovel
$87 900 though but $50 900 or So
was spent in the regular work.

CONVENTION NOTES

The presence of Mr.. NJ B E.
Bairos in Lihue with a tuberculosis
exhibition, enabled the Association
to secure an illustrated lecture from
him on that important subject.
The pictures were thrown onto a
screen on the wall of the church
while the audience sat on the lawn.
The expert interpreter of the
Association explained each scene
as it appeared.
One of the wonders of such a
convention is the size, success and
versatility of the Sunrise Prayer
meetings. w h IL the ordinary
householder is enjoying his last
nap-or getting leisurely into his
clothes the day-the large
church is filling up to overhowing
with ali eager, buoyant yet reverent
crowd bent on getting the most
out f h opportunity. N o
prodding is necessary no oft-re-
peated assurance the meeting is
in your hands 1T goes like an
auto OH a down grade nothing
will stop it but the breakfast bell
which does it with instant effect.
