bership of 10th houses for the Sec

Representative Tavares appeared
early in the lower house, walking
with a crutch. He is still crippled
from the automobile accident of six
weeks ago, but says the injured
ankle is slowly improving and he ex-
poets it to be well before the end of
the legislative session
He also brings the news that he Is
the father of another boy, born last
Tuesday night, and is now the proud
pater of eight offsprings, thus easily
qualifying for exemption from per-
sonal taxation in case Paele's meas
ure, H. B. No. 4S, should become law.
To the Kilauea's failure to stop at
Lahaina en- route here from Hiio, is
due the fact that the latest addition
to his family came at Wailuku. Mrs.
Tavares had expected to accompany
him to Honolulu and they had gone
to Lahaina together to meet the boat.
When they learned it would not stop
at that port they returned to Wailuku

RELIEF FOR PUNCHBOWL

Punchbowl residents will get mucll-needed re-
lief from present insanitary conditions if the
Governors recommendations in his. special mes
sage of this morning are carried out. He urges
The appropriation of from $4,000 to $4,000 for
the extension of the present street system, SO
hat the water and sewer systems, for which
funds are already provided, may be established
throughout the tract.
The Star Bulletin some weeks ago pointed out
the necessity for speedy action by the govern
ment to relieve the insanitary conditions on
Punchbowl, and the governments moral respon-
sibility in the matter, particularly since the
street extensions and changes in property and
street lines are responsible for the tagging OF
sewer extensions in the Auwaiolimu tract As
tie governor now says, the district is illadapted
for cesspools and if the inhabitants are deprived
OF the use of sewers, very dangerous condition
is certain to develop.
PunchbowI residents have long complained OF
the delays Of the territory in handling their
claims. 1t would seem that particular attention
should be paid to the present demand for terri
forial assistance, all the more because the terri
tory has kept from the city the handling of such
city functions as the sewers.

COMFORTING

War with Japan is considered from rather
novel and interesting angle by a recent writer
in the Century magazine J. ID. Whelpley. He
says:
"There will be no war with the United States
for in the first place, the whole life of the Jap
ancse nation is at present, and in all probability
always will be, dependent upon foreign com
merce, and the people of the United States buy a
third of what is sold from Japan. In the second
place, and more potent even, is the recognized
fact that such war would be stalemate for
both sides, with nothing gained and much lost.
The japanese would take the Philippines and
Hawaii, and there effective aggression would
necessarily end. In return the United States
would retake Hawaii and the Philippines, and
with that effective counter aggression would
likewise end The game would not be worth the
candle"
Thus, though Hawaii may tremble temporar-
lily, we can view the ultimate result with some
satisfaction.

ernment. They see several years of control of
the city as the reward for their political efforts
of the past. They do not wish to loosen their
grip on municipal offices. Hence, under the
quite plausible plan of amending the present
city and county act, they undoubtedly hope to
convince the legislature that there is no need of
providing that the commission system be sub
United to vote of the people. And that is just
exactly where the legislature need not be con
WINGED. The sentiment here for radical change
in city government is too strong, too growing,
too aggressive for neglect by the territorial law
makers. The thinking men of this city demand
"a simpler, more responsible form of government.
If there were no concrete proposal for this
definite form, the Democratic bills might be very
good bills, for they are based on correct theories
of government under the mayor-and-council sys-
tenn But with the new charter plan so we'll adj
yanced, the Legislature ought not to stop to daily
with the Bourbon measures

RIGHT BILLS At WRONG TIME

Democratic bills introduced in the legislature
Yesterday to restore some of the former powers
Of the mayor are along the line of wise legislation
in case the legislature fails to make provision for
an electivecommission charter The commission
plan will be put before the legislature as the re-
suits of the work of a large number OF interested
citizens, with the probability that the legislature
will authorize the city to take referendum vote
upon it.
In case the opponents of the commission plan
defeat even its submission to the people, there
ought to be amendments to the present law. As
it now stands, this law is obviously intended to
make the mayors powers practically nil. The
right to veto and the right to order the Hawaiian
bandfrOm place to place are about the only two
privileges or duties left to the chief executive of
this city 1t Ills well-known that Republican
legislature passed the law as a slap at a Demo
cratic mayor. In passing the law, the legisla-
ture removed the office of mayor from the sphere
Of any really big mans ambition The mayor is
a figurehead now Moreover, as Senator Wirtz,
introducer of the senate bill, points out, the leg
islatiye and executive functions of city govern
ment are inextricably mixed now, to the great
disadvantage of public business.
There is another element in this, however. that
must he considered. Many Democrats are frankly
