BlEnrs COMMERCE NINE MONTHS OF 1918

Where does the money come from? For the
nine months of this year ended with September,
shipments of merchandise from Hawaii to all
parts declined SO, 76S ,066 as compared with the
corresponding period of last year, yet the inn
ports of merchandise from all parts increased
s., $685. 800 on the same comparison. Larger pur-
chases with smaller visible purchasing power af-
fords a problem expressed in the question above
asked. The surplus money does not all come
from the federal governments expenditures here
for defenses and navigation improvements, for
the increase in imports from the motherland is
little more than twice that in imports from for
feign countries. Hawaii's foreign trade has it's
own curious feature, in an increase of nearly one
and quarter million dollars of imports, while
exports show gain of only $271 ,956 which, but
for an increase of shipments to the Philippines
accounted for by sugar factory plant made
here would have been decrease of more than
one hundred thousand dollars The official re-
turns Weld declines all down the list Of foreign
countries, with that just notcd the sole import
ant exception, in the amount of exports thereto.
Domestic merchandise shipped from Hawaii
Ito the United States during the nine months
mentioned amounted to $36512 1869, which is
$10,OS4, O5s less, than for the corresponding pc
riod in 1912 Foreign merchandise shipped
hence to the mother country in the same time
was $52,125, a gain of $44, 036, making the net
decline Of exports to the mainland, $10, 04O, or
Shipments Of domestic merchandise direct to
foreign countries amounted to $621 ,239, being an
increase Of $279,556 over the same period last
year Foreign goods to foreign. countries made
$3.50, a decrease of $1,000, so that the net gain
IN foreign exports was $271, 956.
Imports Of domestic merchandise from the
United States to Hawaii during the first three
quarters of this year were $22,8S9,057, being an
excess of $2,669, 1872 over those for the CORE
spending period in 1872. Foreign merchandise
received through the states amounted to 1885,
lS97, or ,534 less than for the same time last
year, making the net increase Of imports from
the mother country 81, 654 ,64S.
Direct imports from foreign countries to Ha.
wall amounted to $5,672,2 97 for the nine
months, being an increase of 81 231 ,s4S over the
same period last year. 8
The grand total of exports for the first three
quarters of this year was $37, ,379, against
SAG, &c., 445 for the corresponding period last
year; a decline of $9, 76s ,O66 The grand total
of imports was SOS ,251, against $24, s31 1856,
an increase of $3,ss6,396. These figures show
an aggregate commerce for Hawaii for the period
under review of $50, 912 $3.50, as compared with
SRI, 794 800 for the corresponding portion of last
year, or decline of 81, 1881 $40.

PLEASED WITH WORK
AGAINST SPEEDERS
Judge Lane Glad to Note
Decrease in Number of
Law ViOIatOrs

Judge A. o. Lane, city commissioner in
Charge of the police department is very
much gratified over the enormous reduce
ton that has been made in the last week
or 10 Gays in cases of automobile speed
ing. There is no doubt but what the
toward the elimination of automobile
speeders within the last two weeks.
When the crisis in the condition of af-
fairs came about two weeks, ago, extra
motorcycle policemen We're placed on the
speeders squad and for several morn
ings thereafter there We're anywhere from
a dozen to % speeders in court and they
we're assessed large fines. Sos.e at
tempts We're made to have the fines re-
scinded by the city commissioners and
the pleas were futile. Gradually thereaf-
ter the number of arrests for speeding
dropped off and for the past several DAYS
there have been but one or two cases
each day in recorders court.
Judge Lane states that it is not be
cause the police have reduced their vigil
larce, but that the speeders have realized
tteif time has come and are complyins
with the traffic ordinance. or courss
there still is some speeding especially IN
the suburbs, but Commissioner Lane
states the practice can never be entirely
eliminated unless a policeman is placed
on every block in the city.
