The Star Bulletin has already pointed out the
advantages of getting visit from Secretary
Daniels at an early date. If there is any move
ment on foot to abandon the Pearl harbor dry
deck project and build in its stead drydock on
the Coast, the secretary should come to Hawaii
and learn the facts firsthand He is disposed to
adopt this means of getting information. Ha-
wall ought to extend to him cordial invitation
to come here sOCn as possible, and the COM
mercial bodies should take the matter up.

REINFORCING THE MOSQUITO FIGHT

A recently issued publication ny the United
forcibly to the attention the need of permanent
reclamation work as means Of combating the
ever-preseDt menace of disease due To mosqui-
tees. ID. r. FulIaway the federal entomoIogist,
reports that the permanent drainage Of large
bodies Of water is The logical way 70 fight the
mosquito pest. His report contains the follow
ing points:
Experience has shown that it is economically
possible by wolldrected efforts to destroy large
numbers of mosquitoes in their aquatic stages
and considerably lessen their annoyance. The
method universally followed is to remove or
treat the bodies of water i'm which the mosqui-
toes are found to breed. The unlimited details
of anti-mosquito work have their foundation and
beginning in the accomplishment of this simple
purpose. 1t usually, however, becomes appar-
ent in any work of this sort that many breeding
places of mosquitoes have a very temporary eX-
istence and are constantly being obliterated, re-,
newed or altered such breeding places, for in
stance, as tin cans, flower cups or mud puddles
land that these breeding places require con
ktant and continuous attention to effect any real
benefit This initiates greatly against the value
Of sporadic campaigns against mosquitoes. The
almost prohibitive expense of the repetition of
work which could be done once for all time also
enhances the value of permanent drainage of
large bodies of water If future work of this
sort is attempted in Honolulu it is respectfully
suggested to the public and its authorized
agents that part of the funds be set aside for
continuous permanent work, such as drainage
and reclamation of low land, rice fields, taro
matches, ETC.; that ordinances be secured max
Ing the maintenance of bodies of standing water
IL which mosquitoes might breed on premises a
nuisance whose continuance would be punish
able by fine; and that the funds not used in per-
hanent or absolutely necessary emergency work
be conserved to provide for regular and con-
tinuous force of inspectors which would attend
70 the enforcement of the law as to owners and
lessees of premises and look after the otherwise
Unattended territory to remove all possible
breedingplaces of mosquitoes.

''Not reckoning the old battleship Oregon in
this compilation we find that in the six years
which mark a great naval growth in this country
cur warships in the Pacific have increased only
by four, to which gain the small destroyers con-
tribute three. In monitors and gunboats the
forces of the two periods are alike, and where we
have gained two armored cruisers we have lost
one protected cruiser"
This is correct as far as it goes, but it tells
only half of the story. The other half is the
rapid and striking development of general mill
tary work on the Pacific, of which Hawaii is
naturally the most conspicuous example. In
1907 our defenses were virtually nil, but the in
Itervening five years have witnessed steady and
altogether tremendous increase in fortifications
and garrisons, which have entirely changed the
military aspect of the Pacific.

sTIRRED..AT LAST


Why should there be surprise at the latest
revelations of dancehall conditions? Ever
since the supervisors licensed the first resort
here have been repeated complaints from many
sources; there have been frequent calls for the
police because of disorderly conduct; there have
been charges that the dancehalls were contrib
uting factors in the delinquencies of young girls
So long as the dance-halls arr. run with no more
regulation than they have been run, they will be

denunciation of Juvenile Judge Whitney has
stirred the community up at last and we are
heartily glad to see that action is now promised

And as is suggested there must be some ade
quate substitute for its attractions-som substi
tute that has not the dance-halls vicious fea

GETTING SECRETARY DANIELS

Secretary of the Navy Daniels should be in
vited to come to Hawaii at his earliest possible
convenience He is already predisposed in favor
of a visit here for the reason that he intends to
visit every navy yard and naval station in the
United States and possessions before he has been
long in office. Recently he made trip of in
spection to the station at Key West, Florida, and
was banqueted by the citizens of Key West. At
the banquet the secretary said
"a few days after assumed the duties of the
great office to which | was called determined

ONLY HALF the STORY

Attention is called to the comparatively small
number of warships on the Pacific in a recent
number of the Army and Navy Journal. The
writer emphasizes the statement that there has
been practically no development of strength
since 1907. Says the service journal:
"In the table which we publish from week to
week giving the distribution of the ships of our
navy it will be seen that in the Pacific fleet, the
Pacific reserve fleet and the Asiatic fleet, we
have only one battleship, the old Oregon, which
on account of its antiquatedness is assigned to
the reserve A comparison in table form shows
to what extent the voyage of The battleship fleet
contributed to the increase of the naval defenses
in the Pacific In 1907 and 1918 the distribu-
ton of our naval vessels in the Pacific, not
counting the tugs, tenders, submarines and other
small ships, was as follows:

ments, on any one of which he can be
sent to the penitentiary for ten years;
and seventeen additional indictments
can be returned against him at any
time.
How he could handle the business
of the office as he did, with no more
thought of the reckoning to come, is
mystery that has grown on the inquis-
itors as they have proved further ano
further into the maze of petty defaica-
tions and checks and warrants issued
promiscuously.
/ HE seemed to act like a man with
a room-full of money, who, when any
of his friends came in with a request
for money, would say to them: All
right; just help yourself from the
money-heap and bang your warrants
and receipts on that peg near the
door as you go out'-and then would
forget ever to look at the slips oil
paper or make any recount OF the
ICON. His carelessness, according to
his own confessions and the records
;of the office, was almost ineonceive-
ayle.
Every warrant, check, receipt and
bit of data covering the business of
tile office throughout Maguire's ten
ure has been found Evidently no
/ fear of reckoning entered his head,
! for nothing has been destroyed, and
the investigation has been largely a
matter of wading through the books
and tracing the warrants"
Thayer says it looks now as though
| it is only question of few weeks
before the commission will be able
to make complete report on the
I total amount embezzled.
Praise for Breckons.
E. A. C.. Long, member of the Ha-
wall probe commission, gives great
credit to r. w. Breckons for the rapid
progress made in running the Mcguire
defalcations down to definite form
and in securing settlement that will
largely reimburse the county for the
money looted from its treasury. Long
came back from Hilo on the Mauna
Kea today.
"Breckons has made this possible
he said, "by the fearless and thorough
. manner in which he went at the pros
ecution and the commission and
Fields figures backed him up all the
way through. When they saw Breck-
cns on the trail, they were glad to
come through"
Long expresses the belief that
much of the scandal is still to be un-
covered as the investigation 'pro-
crosses but is confident that in the
end the ramifications will be traced
down to figures.

is apparent that the prosecutor has
quickly brought the Hawaii auditor to
the point where he is confessing
everything that he can confess. II Is
said by those familiar with the Hilo
situation that Mcguire himself has
