PARTITION OF TURKEY
NOW AIM OF ALLIES
Amends Must Be Adequate or War Is
Inevitable.

Inevitable.
LONDON. Nov. 3.
Turkey Is making efforts through neu-
trail Powers to have the Allies accept It's
apology and prevent war The latest at
tempt, however, will fail, II appears. The
allied Powers are absolutely agreed that
the Turkish menace must be scotched.
To the ovcrtures already made, England
which by common consent Is now acting
as spokesman has responded that only
complete compliance with the original
utimatum viii prevent serious reprisals
This ultimatum included:
Dismissal Of all Germans from the MILL
tary and naval service.
Withdrawal Of all Turkish warshlps
from the Black sea; dlsmantllng the
cruisers Goeben and ereslau, and thelr
lnterment until the end OF the war.
Complete and public apology by the
Turkish Government for the hostile acts
Of its warshlpsi promise OF adequate In
demnty and assurances that violations
OF neutrality heretofore complained OF
would not be repeated In the future.
DEMANDS TOO HEAVY.
There is not the slightest belief here
that Turkey will yield to this extent.
Its apology previously rendered and de-
clned is described as a half-hearted af-
fair. 1t represented the beliefs Of the
peace party in tho Turkish cabinet and
tho Turkish Ambassadors at Bordeaux
and London. The latter officials realize
that the Allies are determined. II the
war finally ends with them victor that
Turkey shall be dismembered for all time
and that there shall be no more Turkey
in Europe. 1t was because they en-
phasized this view to the Porte that the
apology was rendered.
While the decisive war measures wait
on the further diplomatic changes 1t is
understood here that both Russia and
England already have acted to carry
the fighting directly to the Turks.
The Anglo-French fleet is patrolling
Turkish waters and will prevent the
transport of troops. 1t will probably
shell the forts at the Dardanelles and
certain exposed Turkish positions,
Meanwhile the Egyptian army, which Is
on war strength, already has moved
to head off threatened invasion. Russia
has sent troops to Caucasia, where they
will be able to check any attempt on the
part OF the Turks to stir UP trouble
among the Moslem population there,
BALKAN SITUATION
Meanwhile there is much speculation
here as to the intentions OF Italy and
the Balkan States. It is understood that
Greece is ready to strike at Turkey, but
that it hopes to line up both Rumania
and Bulgaria on its side Turkish Ger
man and Austrian representatives, on the
one hand. are appealing to Bulgaria to
side with Germany, while Russian and
England are aiding the Greek represen-
tatives
Italy seems to hold the key to the sit
uation. II Italy decides to enter the war
on the side of the Allies, and high Of
fcals say that such decision already has
been reached and that its participation
will not be delayed more than n fort
night at the outside, most of the Balkan
States will follow its lead
Many Turks are being arrested In
Egypt following the proclamation of mar
tial law. The natives are reported quiet.

RUssIA'S REFUSAL.
In his reply to Fareddin Bey, Foreign
Minister Sazonoff declared that the Rus
sian feet had not opened hostilities and
asserted that the time for diplomatic
negotiations had passed. The immediate
expulsion of German army and navy Of
ficers from Turkey would have opened
the way to pourparlers, he said, which
could have provided satisfaction for all

aggression" on the Russian ports

the great battle cruiser Goeben gives
the Turks an apparent advantage there

Public Works.-Under the present
homestead laws, money received from
the sale of homestead lands can be ex-
pended; and in many cases must be
expended on roads to and through the
homesteads. This work is delegated
TO the Public Works Department of
the territory of Hawaii, but the total
amount of work so done is small COM
pared with the total miles of roads in
the islands,
Construction of Roads.-Roads in
the Territory of Hawaii are of sever
al types Where travel permits and
supplies are on hand, coral roads have
been constructed and have usually
proved very satisfactory. In other
places, where an abundance of coral
sand is to be had, ordinary macadam
road covered with same carry the traf-
fic. Where neither coral nor sand is at
hand, it has been noticed that the or
binary water-bound macadam road I'M
ragels and rapidly deteriorates The
loan fund commissions have consist
emily used different forms of asphalt
macadam for all other work, and in
most cases have made satisfactory
roads. aa-., ~
The Public Works Department rare
ly has had sufficient funds to con-
struct anything but dirt road. 1t is
usually the policy of the Public Works
Department to grade the road, leaving
the high crowns, ample drainage, and
rely on the county or the homestead
ers themselves to complete the road.
Tho Of
the sale of homestead lands is not
sufficient at, any one time to lay out
and construct suitable roads, owing to
the fact that the revenues are re-
ceived over period of from FIVE to
ten years. ria
Travel.-Travel on roads in the
Islands has been very heavy as COM
pared with the area and population
No exact figures can be given as to
the ton hauIage or the vehicles per
day. There are about 1900 automo-
biles in Honolulu, with a population of
81 900, This is at the rate of one au-
issvery high. Most all tourists use
automobiles to see the sights of the
islands. Pineapple haulage is per-
formed by heavy trucks. The army
makes freight and express delivery by
trucks to a large extent Many of the,
plantations own motor self-propelled
trucks CT various descriptions and use
the same on the public highways
Rainfall.-There are included = in
this report maps taken from the eli
Surveys of the Weather
Bureau" dated 1912 These maps
show the rainfall of the various
islands and speak for themselves. 1t
will be noted/that the rainfall varies
from almost hothing tc 200 inches and
over annually. J
On the Island of Maui the maximum
is @09+ inches with q mini
mum of SG7 inches. On Hawaii the
maximum IS 230.36 inches with mini
mum o, 1424. On Oahu, the maxi
mum is at Luakaha and is 1883 in
hes. The minimum is at Eva ION

vide in a separate bill or by other
means. We are undergoing radical

directions that win generally assist

Congressman Ten Eyck. who is a
member of the roads committee of thu
louise of representatives, states in
bis letter TO Governor Pinkham that
his bill may be revised and eventual
ly appear as one introduced by the
house as committee of the whole
He only introduced it, he says, to fix

bill provides that $4,000. 900 a year
shall be. kept available for such fed
eral aid. The governm ant. under this
scheme, would pay one-haIf of the
cost in building certain highways,
provided that the one-half does not
exceed $4,000 mile. The road has to

that the roads must be constructed in
fall, while in others to stand up un-
der long continued drought and high
winds.
in ciRcling the island of Hawaii one
is able to see all the kinds of climate
and different processes of earth con-
struetion that are known to man.
While the climate is of approximately
the same temperature, one sees the
heavy rains along the Hamakua coast
and the desert along Keaumoku. From
the crude lava at the Volcano house,
one can travel in day through the
successive and disintegrating lava
flows of the richest soil formed by
ong-continued and heavy forests.
All the other islands are similar to
these to more or less degree. The
belt road of Oahu passes through
some of the richest agricultural lands
in the islands, and also through the
dry and windy point at Kahuku.
II. R. 1e,522-The intent of this bill
is ito establish in the department of
agriculture bureau: to be known as
a bureau of highways and to provide
national aid in construction. improve
ment and maintenance of public high
ways in each state and territory, and
to provide funds for same" 49,.
In section 4, the bill states that one
half of the cost of certain highways
may be paid by the United States
provided that one-half shall not eX-
coed $4,000 per mile and also provided
that the state Or territory shall paS
in addition to it's one-half proportion,
all additional cost above an average
of $4,000 per mile. There are also
other provisions in this section regard
ing the payments, but the item to
which desire to call attention is the.
assumed cost of roads.
In Hawaii, $4,000 will not pay one
half the cost of the roads. 1t has been
shown that even with re-alignment and
re-grade of an old road. the cost will
still run between $4,000 and S26. 900
per mile This, of course is for a
form of asphalt macadam road. The
bill states that all costs above $4,000
must be paid by the state or terri
tory and it will readily be seen that
on roads here the territory of, Ha-
vail must pay probably twice as much
as the United States for the construc-
ton Of proper roads.
In section I. general road plan is
provided for. which when completed
will connect with each other in such
a. way as to form a national system
of highways. 1t is. of course. obvious
that no system of connecting roads
can be provided for the territory of
Hawaii, but that each island must
be considered separately. !
Section 9 gives certain additions. !
which literally interpreted, would
prevent the territory of Hawaii from
any benefit from this act. !
This act states: "a that 20 per cent |
