When Madame Lillian NoFdica left
her apartments in the Moana Hotel
at noon today, dressed in simple
afternoon gown of blue, she sighed
that she had at last found her para
disc and would never wish to leave.
She stood on the lanai of her hosiery,
overlooking the sea, and declared that
when the tine came for her to select
home within which to spend the
rest of her days, she would make her
way back to Honolulu.
Last night she listened from her
apartments to the Hawaiian singers as
they sang in the ballroom of the hotel,
and the singular beauty of their
voices will never Be forgotten by her,
she says. When she was told that

Today was the first time Madame

MA6EIFYINd THE CLOUD

The Buffalo Courier editorially sees as "A
Cloud on the Horizon" the Japanese question as
it involves Hawaii's position on the Pacific.
Says the Courier:
"In view of the antiJapanese agitation in
California it is peculiarly significant that in Ho-
n0lulu the missionaries and church leaders are
circulating petition among American residents
urging President Wilson to advocate the aboli-
ton of all racial discrimination in dealing with
naturalization. 1t is argued that the adoption
of such policy would aid in solving the Japan
csc problem in the Hawaiian islands
among the japanese on those islands there
is a menacing unrest, owing to the enactment Of
the discriminating anti-alien land law i'll Cali
fornia. There is a grim, ominous propaganda.
that Japan's honor is at stake.
There is some truth and some inaccuracy in
the editorial above. Military preparations in
these islands have been going forward for a NUNS
Der of years and long before the California con.
trOyersy arose. the war and navy departments
had given hurry-up orders on the movement of
troops and equipment here and the completion
of the Pearl Harbor naval station. 1t is quite
true, of course, that there is some uneasiness felt
over the possible result of CALIFORNIA; action,
even though in some quarters that action is APP.
plauded 1t is not true, though that ''among the
japanese in those islands there is menacingI
unrest" Japanese and Americans alike will
bear witness that the California controversy
hardly evoked ripple among the Nipponese res
idents of Hawaii. The Japanese are disturbed
ten times as much over the prospect of sugar dis
aster here over the vague possibility of strain
ed relations between the two countries

recklessness of some chauffeur about

the merciless and british tragedy.
Police Follow Faint clew
A big dark-painted automobile,
racing through Punchbowl street at
an early hour this morning, minus
lights and flying along that thorough
fare at between fifty and sixty miles
an hour, is one of several clues that
the police today are attempting to
follow. This machine was passed by
a milk man who this morning re-
ported that he had narrowly escaped
a collision with the car.
An examination made of the locality
where the Japanese fell to his death
repealed much evidence to the effect
that the car which felled Yamamoto,
passed over his PROSTATE body and
was afterward reversed to some dis
lance.
Despite a &cereful search for broken
glass, indications now point to the
death having been caused by the
contact with the radiator and front
portion of the machine. The autopsy
held over the remains of the Japanese
brought to light numerous bruises,
some of which were inflicted about
the. head, first suggested to the Off
GERS that a, blunt instrument might

WHERE HAWAIIAN LABOR BENEFITS

There has just been received in printed form
a brief by former Governor George r. Carter on
Hawaiian Sugar Interests, published by the Do
nestle Sugar Producers Bureau in Washington
and used in the present campaign against free
sugar. The brief is an admirable piece of work j;
short illuminative, forceful and filled with un-
deniable facts and ineontroyertible figures.
There is, however, one point which Mr. Car
fer seems to have missed and a point that it
would be we'll to bring to the attention of con
oress at. once Mr. Carter emphasizes the great
increase in the marketed cost of the sugar crop
to Hawaiian producers, but fails to point out
Honolulu star-bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1912-2010, 1913-06-24

A
There is thus shown an increase of sol 81 pei
ton in the crop cost in the period between 1897
and 1912, an increase of nearly eighty per cent
As this paper pointed out last week, fully one
half of sugar cost is labor expense The high
base-rate of wages and the bonus system have re-
suited in an unusually large percentage of the
cost of production going directly to the unskiled
and skilled manual laborers. In few If any other
industries in few if any other parts of the world
can be found an occupation where such greas
part of the cost of the product is due to labor
charges.
The cost of production, according to planta-
ton experts, has increased by just the increase
in the amount paid for labor. In this connec-
ton it is worthy of note that notonly have the
plantations paid steadily more and more for Ia
Dor, but that the sugar industry has stood prac-
tically the entire burden of Hawaii's costly eff
forts to import Russian, Portuguese and Spanish
Immigrants, an indirect but heavy addition to
the cost of production. The immigrants, more
over, have gone into not one but all the island
occupations. The figures show that previous to
annexation the factor of labor amounted to be-
tween fifty and sixty per cent of the total cost
VI pIouuCtloH, pTdctlcdiIy the Stiic pcIceHldSc
holding good today. However, the actual in
crease in wages has been about one hundred per
cent Previous to annexation the standard wage
paid unskilled labor ON the plantations was
$3.50 per- month, whereas the lowest possible
wage is now $40 month, with free house-rent,
fuel and medical attendance. The present aver
age wage, with the bonus accruing during the
year, amounts to considerably more than this.
Labor received thiTteenpe bonus last
year.
And when the cost of production shows such
an unprecedented increase in a period of fifteen
years. with the increase going to the labor, con-
gress may well hesitate before striking an insup-
portable blow at this industry. In the face of
these figures, the cry that the sugar industry in
Hawaii is benefiting but a few rich ''barons"
should be stilled forever.
