Be Overcome.

Bravery In the face OF only possible
death. as on the battle field, and
bravery In the face Of certain death,
as in the case OF a Titanic shlpwreck'
are OF course two very different
things. The danger OF the battle field
Is much harder to meet because OF
It's uncertainty. Men easily summon
courage to meet the inevitable,
II is the fear OF the mishaps and
perils Of ordinary life-all our breads

literature has sprung up within the
last two decades. telling NJ how to
be forewarned and forearmed against
all real and imaginary evils
The glst Of that doctrine, boiled

CONGRESS CAN'T
ADJOURN Until
QUORUM FOUND
Hawaiian Bills, However, Have
Practically No Chance OF
Action This Session
ONLY NEAR MIRACLE
CAN SECURE ACTION
Filibuster Keeps Lawmakers in
Session But Local Affairs
Aren't Considered


lAssociated Press by Fed. Wireless j
WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. %. =
Congress has not yet adjourned. Many
Of the members are absent election
eering and neither house is able to
obtain q quorum.
Congress is about to adjourn with
two extremely important Hawaiian
measures not acted upon--the federal
building and site and the Rapid Tran.
sit franchise bill.
Y Up to the last moment hopes will
be entertained that, the federal build
ing bill will get some sort OF consid.
GRAFTON, but it Is realized that the
Rapid Transit franchise extension bill
is dead for this session.
: The federal building bill passed the
Senate with fat appropriation for
the purchase Of a site here and the
erection Of building. all under the
discretion OF the secretary OF the
treasury. Action in the. House was
expected many weeks ago. but for one
cause or another, all Of which have
been explained and discussed here at
length, the House has not acted. Fin
ally one congressman got angry at an
other and has since effectively block
ed further consideration of the bill. 1t
was stricken from the unanimous con-
sent" calendar, then put on again, but
at the foot of q long list Of measures,
SO that, as the Washington correspon-
dent OF the Star-Bulletin observed.
there was practically no chance for
action at this session.
It would be near-miracle il the bill
should pass now.
Latest reports are that Congress has
been kept In session today because OF
the Hoke Smith filibuster, conducted in
the senate on behalf of the southern
cotton growers who want government
relief. However, congressional rules
are such that it is very doubtful II the
federal building bill viii be reached
and passed. 1t would probably have
to 60 to the senate for agreement, per-
haps conference committee would
be necessary-and with one thing and
another. it stands a very slim chance
of passing.
The Rapid Transit bill is still in
the house committee on territories. 1t
is a mystery here why this bill has
been held up without action. There
has seemed some undercurrent OF OBJ
lection that has never come to the sur
face. And the congressman Of the COM
mittee have had few meetings and
fewer quorums. At any rate, the bill
has slumbered in committee. The
Rapid Transit Company did not expect
the bill to pass Congress at this ses-
sion but hoped for favorable report
in the house, which would have put
the bill in a strong strategic posi-
tion for the next session.
Several other important measures af-
fecting Hawaii have received little
consideration at this session Of Con-
gress. II Is generally held that the
absence of, Hawaii's delegate during q
large part Of the session Is partly re-
sponsible for the failure Of Hawaiian
measures to be given attention at
Washington.
