Whether the increase indicates grenter need.
or greater care and more complete provision is :;
question which must ava; 4 more careful study
of the situation; also the question as to the
decrease. Two items are of special interest-the
collection for the first time of data in regard to
the pIacing-Out of children in families and the
notably increased interest manifested in the
treatment of tuberculosis, which accounts to
very considerable degree for the increase in the
number of dispensaries and to some degree of
hospitals and sanitariums. Thus the net number
of dispensaries added to the list is 42O, and of
thee nearly 200 are county dispensaries estab
lished in the state of Pennsylvania by the depart
mcnt of health for the treatment of tuberculosis
The decrease of 109,319 in the number of persons
received into institutions forthe care of adults or
adults and children is chiefly confined to institu
tons for the temporary care of men who are des
titutc.

STORIES OF HURT
To c R u User
CANARD

Stories in the San Francisco papers
10 the effct that the cruiser California
had been badly damaged in Hawaiian
waters more than year ago, are not
torne out by the facts as published
here, at the time that the Pacific feet
made its long stay at Honolulu. It is
true that the California, then flagship
OF Admiral Thomas, developed a
strong list while in these waters, and
that board of investigation was call
cd to locate the extent Of the damage
At that time it was discovered that
some of the ships plates were dented
and it was announced that the acct
dc MT had occurred some time before
when the California was being docked
a. Hunters Point, California, and had
heen "pinched" in the process. Two
compartments were found to be leak
ing slightly, the list being caused by
the water that had found its way into
the double bottom of the ship.
The San Francisco Call of January
q published a story, which incorrectly
gives the place of the accident as Pear
Harbor. The California entered Pear
harbor only once, and nothing happen
ej to her on that oscasion.
The Call says:
The the damage to the cruiser Cali
fcrnia is not so serious as first report
ed, and that whatever it may turn out
to be it was not suffered anywhere o.
tie Pacific coast, but In Hawaiian
waters nearly a year and half ago,
is the result of an unofficial inquiry
today.
Captain Alexander Halstead is ab-

crew, who worked in the fireroom. is
re ported to have said that while this
vessel was at Pearl Harbor more than
year ago she leaked slightly. It
vas thought at the time that some of
the rivets of her double bottom had
sweated of that a plate had buckled.
The leak was reported at the time
TO Admiral Switzerland, who is now
in command of the Pacific squadron.

SENATOR CLARK ON THE JOB

Senator Clark of Wyoming has been a very
COED friend to Hawaii, and the latest evidence
of it is in his insistence that this territory be in
cluded in the beneficial provisions of the Lever
Page agricultural aid bill. The Star Bulletin
some time ago drew attention to the fact that
Hawaii had been dropped from the Lever bill,
and this paper sent to Washington to know why.
Senator Clark, learning that Hawaii had been
either purposely or neglectfully dropped, sue.
eeeded in getting the territory included by an
amendment to the Leyer.P agebill. Congressman
Levers measure and Senator Pages measure are
working out as joint bill and Hawaii stands an
excellent chance of securing early benefit

AN APOSTLE OF PEACE

3 Hon. George Il Foster, whUis expected to
pass through Honolulu on February. Goth on his
way to the Imperial Conference in Australia, is
one of the greatest parliamentary orators of Can
ada. Hesis minister of commerce in the Domin-
ion cabinet. 1t might be very fitting for the
commercial bodies of Honolulu to invite Mr..
Foster by wireless to his steamer to deliver an
address here, provided the steamers stay be pro-
pitious. A subject upon which he would almost
certainly be prepared to speak would be the hun
dred years peace between GreatsBritain and the
United States, with reference incidentallypto the
fourthousand-mile International boundary with
out a fort or an armed man.

NOTES OF PROSPERITY
FROM THE PHILIPPINES

Reports that have strayed in from
Nueva Ecija province tell of the larg-
est rice crop in history, says the Man
liza Cable-News American. :. A very
large rice crop is reported all tover the
province of Bataal.
On the Dinalupihan hacienda alone,
$4,000 cavanes f7of palaY belong
ing to the various tenants have been
cut. Thomas Pratt manager of the
hacienda, has two cable plows break.
ing up 1000 acres of sugar land and
a new sugar mill is about to be con-
structed on the hacienda and is al.
ready on the ground waiting to be as
sembled.
The Abucay Plantation Company is
cleaning up large acreage tor corn
and has been offered P50 atMfor all
II can raise.
Bagoc and Moron both have, bumper
crops of palay and thousands of logs
cut waiting shipment to Manila.
From Sorsogon the report comes
that hemp is, still keeping at good
price but the production is fast fall
ing off. One good feature of the stu
alton Is that planters have started on
thorough cleaning up of the hemp
fields SO as to increase the production
next year. Many fine hemp fields
that had been practically abandoned
and had become almost jungles have
been cleaned and now present fine
appearance. 1t is prophesied that, II
the price of hemp remains as it is for
about year longer, everybody in Sor-
sogon should be clear, of debt.
AS result of the increased price
of hemp there has been an influx of
Turks, Greeks and Syrians who have
established dry goods stores and are
apparently doing a thriving business.
