IF PRIMARY ACT
IS KNOCKED OUT,
What IS NEXT?
~
Politicians Wondering What
viii Become of Candidates
Special Election Talk

Republican and Democratic party
leaders almost literally shudder with
apprehension at the thought of what
may, might, could, would or should
happen If the new direct primary law
succumbs to the various attacks now
being made upon 1T through the
courts. t.-...- ~
|. 1t is admitted frankly that If this
law is knocked out and the primary
results of September IL are held null
and void, Hawaiian politics and gov
eminent will. be in vast and almost
inextricable confusion. Just what
would happen to the various county
governments and the legislature nc
one seems to know. 1t is thought that
some kind OF special election would
have to be held, but whether that
would be necessary before or after
the November-e election date the wise.
acres in law and politics do not agree.
Meanwhile one candidate, Delegate
Kuhio, has taken time by the forelock
and filed new set of nomination pa
pers, under the old law, so that II
the primary law Is knocked out he
win still have some standing.
But the other legislative candidates,
not realizing, perhaps, the danger to
their interests If the direct primary
law is punctured by the supreme
court, have taken no steps to file new
papers. Under the law such papers
must be filed thirty days prior to the
general election, and of course this
was the action taken under the old
convention system. After the conven-
lions had nominated their candidates,
the candidates would duly file nomi-
nation papers and their names would
go on the general election ballots.
Last Saturday night, October 4, was
the last date on which nomination
papers could be filed, under the old
law, by candidates from the outside
islands for the legislature or for dele
gate, which explains the haste made
late Saturday afternoon to get the
Kuhio nomination signed by the re.
quisite number Of voters.
Municipal candidates have plenty OF
time yet in which TO hand in the mo-
limitations in case they wish to do
so. However, good many candidates
NAV not take the trouble TO comply
with the provisions of the old law.
Two Attacks Made.
Two separate lines of attack are be-
ing made on the primary law, one OF
them the friendly test case brought
by Robert w. Breckons, yice-chair.
man of the Republican party, in the
form of a mandamus suit, and the
other the mandamus suit brought by
George A. Davis on behalf of petition
ers who aIlege the unconstitutionality
of the direct primary law. Both suits,
it is expected. will be fastened to
a decision in the supreme court.
It was reported today that Attorney
Davis is also filing quo warranto pro-
ceedings. or proceedings to Dust,
though this, it is said. would be an
unusual legal method of getting at the
required result, inasmuch as primary
candidates nominated on September
IL are not yet in Office. However,
this may be directed against City
Clerk Kalauokalani, who received q
majority of all votes in the primary
cast for his Office and thus under the
primary law was elected outright
There are lot of questions to be

Sir: There has been some discus
sion of late anent the wearing of Eu.
ropean dress by Japanese women
which has centered mostly around the
relative merits of the modes of dress.
1t seems to me that the important
phase Of the question has been entire
ly omitted. The dress itself is not the
real question: If it were the Japan
csc, Chinese or African style would be
preferable to the European. 1t is what
the dress represents that makes all

EDITOR

Under such circumstances there could be no
basis of settlement /
1t is not likely that the leaders of either side
desire peace now. Nothing has been settled.
None of the issues that seemed. important
enough to plunge five million men into warfare
has been disposed of definitely. The nations,
indeed, have shown their courage and willing
ness to risk their national existence for the
sake of principle one regards that
principle as right or wrong it is still moving
cause-but their armies have hardly taken the
field, their navies scarcely cleared for action.
Already, however, peace proposals are being
made by various individuals, societies and or
CARNATIONS. The most striking fact about
these peace plans, tentative and premature as
they are, is that invariably they contain pro-
vision for the limitation of ornaments in the
future. ....4.- III t.r-:
Perhaps the farthest advanced Of these peace
plans is that drawn by group of noted econo-
mists, authors, and scientists Among them is
Norman Angell,, well for his strong
writings on international affairs. Ramsay
Macdonald, Charles TreveIyan, E. D. Morel and
Arthur Ponsonby are others of the group. They
have laid down the following conditions as
those which should form the basis of peace
when it is made: ~
1. No province shall be transferred from one
government to another without consent by
popular vote of the population of such province.
2. No treaty oplarrangenent or undertaking
shall be entered upon in the name of Great
Britain without the sanction of Parliament or
without adequate machinery for insuring a
democratic control of the foreign policy being
created
! 3. The foreign policy of Great Britain shall
not be aimed at creating alliances for the pur-
pose Of maintaining a balance of power, but
shall be directed to the, establishment of a CON
cert of Europe, whose deliberations and decis-
ions shall be public
4. Great Britain shall propose, as part of
any peace settlement, plan for the drastic re-
duction of armaments by the consent Of all bel
ligerent powers, and, to facilitate that policy,
shall attempt to. secure "a general nationaliza-
ton of manufacture of ornaments and prohi-
bition of the export of ornaments by one
country to another.

With the reports that the cathedral OF
Rheims has been destroyed by German bonn
bardment, it is interesting to note what the
German art authority, Franz Won Reber, author
of History of Medieval Art, !" has to say
about it. The Cathedral of Rheims has been
called the Parthenon of the Middle Ages. This,
however, is going too far; for, though the edi-
fee, both in its architecture and sculpture, may
be considered as the finest creation of the Mid
die Ages, still it is not of the absolute perfc-
tion which characterizes the work of Iktinos
and Pheidias. :. The masters of Rheims
were more successful in rendering youthful and
maidenly delicacy, tender and sympathetic
dream-ife light limbs and flowing draperies,
than the serious dignity and the strongly
marked character requisite for manly figures. /"
The architect s name of the cathedral, xon
Reber notes, was Robert de Concy.

Members of CrunlbZing
House of English Lords

London, Eng, Feb. Though the
political power Of the lords has gone
never to return again there is no lack
OF people anxious to become peers. and
at present no less than six peerage
claims are pending before the house of
lords. The claimants are very, hopeful
IN view Of the rather slight grounds
on which two or three honors have
been called out of allegiance. One was
the ancient Furnival barony, the abey-
ance of which was determined last
April in favor of the Mary Petre. a
child of Is, and another the ancient
barony of Latimer, which was called
out of allegiance in favor Of the banker
poet, Francis COutts.
Neither Of these successful claimants
was the senior coheir Thus not only
was an injustice done other coheirs
but in each case a hereditary honor
was added to a roll which already is

an ancient peerage would be guided
by a certain point OF feudaI law. but
seemingly this is not so.
Under feudal law, when a peeraEe
became abeyant between coheiresses, it
so remained until the heirship rested
with one person, who then had the sole
claim Under these circumstances the
sovereign could determine the abey-
ance without injustice to other per
sons. A claimant to an abeyant honor
is, of course, entitled to it, II the king

his or her favor But the committee

claim, and his majesty acts on the
