Advance from SchofieId Il
Pearl City Is CleanIy
Earned

IStar- Bulletin Staff Correspondence
HEADQUARTERS RED ARMY,
PEARL CITY, Oct. 24-1f the Reds
had been armed with ball cartridge in
stead of blank, and had been fighting
the Blues in real warfare for the pos
session of Oahu, the situation would
be Just where it is tonight.
= This seems to be the consensus of
opinion among well posted military
men, who are able to forget what
color hatband they happen to be wear
ing in mimic warfare, and argue the
case strictly on its, merits. If the ad-
vantage had feen with the Blues, they
would have been just as ready 10 ad-
nit il. While theory of course enters
into the present maneuVers to a large
extent, and while, in fact, the whole
structure of the war game rests on a
foundation of supposition. the Red
army did not get from Kawaihapai to
Pearl City on the wings of fancy.
They reached here by hard marching
and hard fighting, and every advance
which they made was cleanIy earned
on tactical and stragetic points.
Hence the original statement, that
with ball catr- -dge the same Red force
that it tonight camped within striking
distance of Pearl Harbor, would be
camped in the same position, or even
nearer Honolulu, should the city
rather than the harbor have been its
objective point. Several of the UNI
pires, who are too keenly and con-
scienciously interested in the military
problems which the manuevers aHe
developing to care which side is sue
cessful, agree in this regard.
Theory Hindered Reds.
WHAT is more. theory served to hind
er rather than help the Reds, for had
they been really intent on pushing
their way from the north coast to
Pearl Harbor. they would not have
fallen back to take up the defensive
position behind Schofeld Barracks

MAUI NAMES
GO ON BALLOT

In decision handed down this af-
ternoon, the Supreme Court declares
that the Republican candidates for
the Legislature, for Maui may have
their names put on the official ballot
The Democratic Territorial central
committee protested to Secreatry Of
the Territory E. A. Mott-Smith that
the Maui Republicans did not file
their. nominations as required by law,
technicals defects being alleged. The
Supreme Court throws out the pro-
test on both the points raised by the
Democratic party and allows Secre-
tary Mstt.Smith to put the names on
the official ballot for the election In
November. The court holds that the
spirit Of the law was complied with
to. a sufficient extent. u 3 :s.zs s,

Red Army Cuts It's
Way BY Hard Fights

which they occupied Wednesday, and
from which the Blues found it impoS-
.sihle to dislodge them. On the con-
.trary, during real warfare the Reds
would undoubtedly have driven the
PlueS back out of their own position
OIL the hill back of Castner. for the
disposition of the Red force at the end
of the engagement of the first day on
the reservation was such that the
Blues would have been forced to re-
tire. Instead of camping mile be-
hind their firing line on Tuesday night
they would have bivouaced mile be-
yond II, and would have been at Pearl
Parbor yesterday instead of today. So
il is perhaps we'll for Hawaii that the

ing a game, and not a foreign invader
intent on the capture of the island.
One Of the great difficulties of max
ing maneuvers realistic is that troops
under heavy fire Of artillery and rifles
Cften continue serenely on the way,
Utterly oblivious to the fact that they
ere being fired upon. In these 6avs
oG long range execution it is hard for
the theoretically dead to know that
they are even in danger, and the re-
suit is that they often develop a posi-
ton when theoretically they would
have been forced back with serious
loss long before they reached the
place where they finally stopped.
Heavy Fire And Theory.
This was the case in Wednesdays
engagement, when Blue infantry. un-
der heavy fire, advanced in a couple
O. hours over ground that it would
have taken them three days to COW
er in actual warfare. The Red posi-
ton was one of the strongest on the
island, protected as it was by deep
galch on the front and right flank,
and open fields ,affording no sort Of
cover, on both sides of the detile. The
only loss the Reds suffered on that
CAV was to cavalry on their left flank,
and to a machine gun platoon, which
was theoretically put out of commits
sion.

Blues have successfully defended their
position on @ Halawa ridge and are
highly satisfied with the results of the
war. Falling back from Schofield in
good order, they succeeded in getting

gratifying one for the Blue defenders

Tonight the Blues will be in camp

were filled. Whether they were able

MEXICO MISSES TOURISTS.
Their Absence Loss to Country ms
Wei M to Those who DO Not Come.

CFrom the Mexican Herald)
Winter is upon us. the splendid winter
Of the tropics, and the tourists are not
here. Nor will they come until peace re-
turns TO this distracted land Canadian
and American winter travellers are going.
this season. to southern California and
Florida. to Cuba and Porto Eico and to
Jamaica and Panama The business men
of Havana and the agents of the trans
portation companies. hotel managers and
municipal government. have united thei.
efforts to attract and entertain tourists.
AS q result. the havana newspapers are
already recording the arrival of travellers
from the Dominion and the United States.
This tourist travel means a profit of
several million dollars annually. and the
Havana people are to be congratulated
on heir enterprise and success. The
newspapers of the Cuban capital are CIV
ing Mexico some bad advertising by
printing on their first pages kilograms
headed Passenger trains fired upon in
Mexico. And the pity of IT is that it Is
true; but We may as well explain that the
great majority of trains on the railways
of this country are running safely enough.
pul tdu IfNS llAfS last s'lN IloUlHS vi
entire security here would dspe the bad
impression made by such news.
For two years now. tourist travel to
this country has been practically sus-
pended with a resulting large loss to the
railways and the steamship companies
hotels and restaurants and curio shops
to say nothing of those who furnish pro-
visions to the restaura nts guides and the
retail trade in general.
What the tourist business in Europe
mounts to may be seen in semi official
statistics. American tourists spend an
nually from 500. to s9n.ro,0oO on
passage to and from Europe. and their
expenses and purcha ses while there. This
goes on year after year. The Italian peo-
pie derive an income from American and
northern European tourists of some 500
0oo.0" annually; in fact, some of the
older Italian cities almost live upon the
revenue derived from tourists. Switzer-
land also makes a great yearly profit
from travellers. and this business has
caused the building of hundreds of hotels
in that country.
Mexico has MANY attractions for trav-
elers. she has delightful winter
climate beautiful and romantic scenery
and historic cities The country Is a
veritable paradise for artists and al
ways delights people Of artistic tastes.
OF recent years. good hotels have multi
piled in the cities and more important
towns, and their intelligent mana gers
have successfully catered to the wants
of tourists. 4 most interesting develop
ment of the tourist business has been the
making known of the attractions of the
great central plateau in summer time.
with the result that hundreds Of persons
from Texas and other American States
have chosen to pass that season here in
the highland tropics
When good times return tourist travel
should be Systematically encouraged.
