homesteads, covering an area of :.
234.07 acres, valued at $S4 .030.95. we're
! taken up. twenty-five hOmesteadS
covering 934.16 acres, valued at AZ,
S25.40, were surrendered during the
! year. The low price for cane obtain
ing during the year and the prospects
of very low prices for pineapples have
been rather discouraging to the home
steaders.
! Agricultural pests-The government
is still engaged in seeking in various
parts of the world for parasitic enc
mics of the pests that are so destruc'
tive to fruits, etc, particularly the
Mediterranean fruit fly.
Forest reserves-These forest res
ervations have been practically "om-
pleted so the water supplies CT the
territory are fully protected. There
remains only certain fencing and
planting to be done, when the forest
problems will be simplitied to care
and proper forestry practise.
Transportation-Du the year
two large steamers with large pas
senger accommodations have been ad-
ded for the trade between the terri
tory and the Pacific coast Steamers
are more and more making several
Hawaiian ports on their round trips
and enlarging their calling ports On
the coast.
Harbor accommodations are grad
ually being increased and are ade-
Guate for any reasonable demand at
present, although Honolulu har5or
needs enlargement for anchorage.
Public works-There are few works
of Importance in hand at present. The
larger items will await the placing of
an issue of territorial bonds. =
Education and its problems is
a pressing problem, as present meth
DDS seem to draw youths away from
certain classes of employment the ter
ritory can supply. The wisdom of
this is worthy of deep study. The
territory of Hawaii has been distinctly
and generously a supporter OF educa-
ton in practical forms and also Of
what may be termed advanced theo-
ries of pedagogical and ethical types,
and the tendency has been to magnify
these latter A point has been reached
where there must be reaction in
favor of sound, rational education, if
the territory of Hawaii is to find sup
port in the vocations it has to offer
its children after such preparation.
The department Of public instruction
has been directed to use all its wis
dom and effort to bring about sound,
not theoretical, education, and it is
making the effort The children in
public schools increased, 13 1853 and in
private schools decreased 1909. There
are now in public schools $500 chil-
dren, in private schools 629S children,
astotal of 33.2SS. There lis a prospect

WASHINGTON, Sept. 19.-Drastic ac.
money, denying loans for legitimate pur.
poses to commercial borrowers while their
vaults bulge with war emergency" and
other currency. Is being considered by
Secretary Of the Treasury McAdoo.
The Secretary and members of the Fed.
eral Reserve Board admitted today that
numerous complaints against bankers are
being received. Recall from offending
banks by the Treasury of currency issued
for the war emergency under the Aldrich-
Vreeland act unless the boarding ceases
was being seriously considered today, il
was reported
State banks, which cannot be reached
by the Federal officials, are also Offend
ing by boarding their money, it was stated
today.
While millions of dollars of emergency
currency have been poured out to the
banks, manufacturers and merchants are
being turned down. when loans are re-
quested and interest charges boosted, ac-
cording to complaints reaching the treas
ury. Many banks are also said to be de-
clining to extend maturing paper.
Hoarding always occurs in times of dis
tress. but with the treasury dealing out
currency with free hand there is no
necessity for such action now, in the
opinion of Secretary McAdoo, and the
reserve board
Between October is and November 1
the reserve board plans to have the new
currency system in operation, and men,

RAILROADS SHOW A
CONTINUED FALLING
OFF IN EARNINGS
Income Reduced More Than
$6,000,000 in First Week
of September = Cotton
Roads Hard Hit By
Slump.

With few exceptions, gross earnings of
the railroads in the United States for the
first week of September continued to show
decreases compared with the same period
last year Moderate Improvement is
shown by some roads, but the leading
systems of the country are generally
below their last years figures. The fall
ing off during the first week of Septem-
Der was sc, 491. $780, or 81 per cent.
The roads showing Improvement are the
Chicago, Indianapolis and Louisville,
Minneapolis and st. Louis, Denver and
Rio Grande, Western Pacific, and Mobile
and Ohio. The unusually light movement
of cotton, which is generally a great fac
tor in the freight business Of the rail
roads of the South, has adversely affected
the earnings of the cotton roads.
To this can be attributed, in q large
measure, the smaller earnings of the
Louisville and Nashville, Cincinnati, New
Orleans and Texas, Southern and some
other larger systems. Losses in the West
and Southwest are not as large as form
erly in some instances, and indications are
for Improvement notably in Colorado and
Southern, Missouri Pacific, and Missouri
Kansas and Texas.
The following table gives the gross earn
ings of all railroads in the United States
reporting TO Duns Review for the first
week of September, and the loss as COM
pared with the earnings of the same roads
for the corresponding period year ago;
also the roads that reported for the same
week in the preceding months together
with the percentages of loss compared
with last year:
