COAST DEFENSES
OF OAHU Doing
PIONEER WORK
Record of Hits Sacrificed to
Research Work Which May
Help Whole Service

'1f the mortar firing this year had
been under the same conditions as
last year, the batteries at Ruger and
Kamehameha would have scored SO
per cent of hits, However, we are
trying out new methods OF mortar
fire, and making tests in connection
with the practice that we are author
lied although not required to do. This
has pulled down the number Of hits,
but has brought to light some new
phases OF mortar work, which are
extremely Interesting and worth
while"
This statement made this morning
by Colonel w. c. Rafferty,, command.
ing the Coast Defenses OF Oahu, indi.
Gates that Hawaii is again doing pio
neer work Tith the mortars, and that
individual records have been sacriic
ed for general development. Colonel
Rafferty, is well pleased with results
to date, although the bare figures
viii not be so Impressive as those
recorded last year.
One experiment that has been tried
here this year Is in the matter OF FIR.
ing sighting shots, to determine the
wind variations for the entire field
Of FIRE, instead OF in the direction
that the record shots are to be fred.
This method OF computing the air
currents some four miles overhead
may be developed to advantage, but
in this years firing the full value
Of the trial shots have been impair.
ed to carry on the experiments
There was to have been night firing
for the Kamehameha mortars last
night, but the superstructure Of the
target was washed away, and II was
too late to continue when another was
secured Adhering to the original
schedule, the I2inch gun battery at
Fort Kamehanaeha will fire tonight,
and IL the practice goes of rapidly,
the mortars viii follow II not, they
win be fired after the schedule Is
completed.
Owing to the fact that umpires and
observers were on duty most OF last
night, the practice at Fort Armstrong
with 3inch guns was postponed from
this until tomorrow morning. Forty
shots will be fired by these guns, for
daylight and also night practice The
little fellows shoot at a material tar
get, so that the actual hits can be
counted as soon as the firing is over.
The mortars fire at an imaginary tar
get, and the exact number OF hits
viii not be announced until the en-
tire practice period is over .
Friends OF Captain H. J. Hatch,
commanding the l94th Company. are
awaiting with interest the result Of
the 3-inch gun practice. Last year
Captain Hatch commanded the 143rd
Company, which with the 6Sth won
the Knox trophy The special firing
with service ammunition at Arm
strong yesterday was so satisfactofI
that the le4th is certainly in the run

Self respecting negroes no not want
to marry whites, of course. They would
not be allowed to do SO if they did
wish it. But the ban of law has the
special effect-the psychological de-

spirit of the whole race. 1t will make
the negro more tractable and cheaper.
Incidentally, the mixture of the races
noes not stop in the Southern states
which prohibit marriage between
whites and negroes. White men do
not observe the color line They mere

NEW ANTI-cHILD LABOR LAW.

ATLANTA, Aug. Organized la.
Dor and other opponents Of child labor
in this state have triumphed over
Georgia's mill owners and, their re-
dictionary allies, who attempted to de.
feat the Shepherd child labor bill.
Every trick at the command of alert
enemies was used to block this legis-
lation, which received hearty support
from the organized workers. the Wo-
mems organizations, ministers, and
others.
Opponents of the bill succeeded in
amending the House bill in several IN
stances, but the new law is far in ad-
vance of the makeshift act which pro-
fessed to offer protection to Geogias
children. Under the new law, children
under twelve years. of age are barred
from factories and mills. Children IN

their labors or on whom widowed
mothers are dependent. may labor, with
the consent. of the superintendent of
education, who is given authority to
decide if the child comes under the
provisions of the bill The friends Of
children are greatly encouraged over
the outcome, because they have estab.
lished their principle. and now declare
they will continue the fight to per
feet the bill and place Georgia in
position on this question that is in

SOCIALISTS IN WAR
AGAINST HIGH PRICES

Through it's national organization
the Socialist party calls upon the
working people everywhere to rise in
protest against the increasing cost of
food as follows:
TO. THE AMERICAN PEOPLE
A desperate situation confrontsr the
people of America.
= INSCRIPTIONS capitalists, using the
European war as "a pretext, are in
creasing the cost of food so. that mil
lions are threatened with starvation.
The president of the United States
has ordered an investigation of the in
crease in food prices, and the prosecu-
investigations and prosecutions have
brought no results whatsoever in the
past and are not likely to do so now.
European governments, when con-
lronted with similar situation, real
lied that there is only one measure
that can be expended upon to bring
relief-the seizure of all plants and
industries responsible for the increase
in prices and their operation by the
government for the benefit of the peo-
pie.
We demand that the same action be
taken Immediately in the United
States.
We demand that the government, as
an emergency measure, seize the pack
ing houses, cold storage warehouses
granaries, flour mills and such other
plants and industries as may be neces
sary to safeguard the food of the
people.
Such seizure will not only benefit
the people of the United States but
also the people of Europe.
When the government controls the
industries, the expectation of foods te
Europe can be prevented. The rulers
of Europe, unable to secuer food fol
their armies, will be forced to call of
their soldiers.
We also demand that the expectation
of money and of munitions of war tt
the European nations be prohibited
The United States must not aid thu
powers of Europe to continue thei
| fratricidaI strife. We call upon thu
people everywhere to hold mass meet
ings and to send resolutions to tn,
president and Congress demanding
i Immediate action.
The need is urgent. We must act.
By order of the National Committe

milestone in his service diamond rings
or watches, but this season the former
gifts will prevail. The awards will
be made as marks of appreciation of

DECISIONS ON LABOR LAWS

WASHINGTON, Aug. 727-The Fed
eraf Bureau of Labor Statistics has
just compiled, in bulletin, No. 1852, a
selected list of decisions by federal
courts and the higher courts of the
various states that are of sepcial inter-
est to organized labor. Among the ITO
court decisions reported, which include
the UNFOLDING of New Jersey and
Washington compensation laws, is one
from Wisconsin which makes it the
duty of the employer to provide medi-
cal treatment for injured workmen.
The court admitted that this very i'm
portant feature of compensation could
be abused, but pointed out ways in
which the abuses may be avoided. The
bureau expresses the opinion that this
bulletin probably presents the largest
number of strictly American cases on
compensation that can be found in a
single volume.
Next in Importance to compensation
rulings are the decisions constituting
the federal statute relating to the
| liability Of interstate railroads for in
juries to their employees, the chief
point evolved being the scope Of this
law. Among the employees held to be
within it's provisions are brakeman
getting ice to cool hot boxes on his
train, truckfnan loading. detached
car with interstate freight, pump
man at water Station, a repair man
working on ar engine tender on a
siding, a member Of a switching crew
placing an oil car to furnish oil for
| fuel for an(1interstate locomotive, a
yard clerk taking the number of the
cars in an interstate train, and track
repairer injured by an interstate train
! while at work on bridge.

TO DUST CONVICT SYSTEM.

DIES M0fNBs, IOWA. Aug, 81
This State is trying to end the infam-
GUS convict labor system as soon as
soon as possible. A big step was taken
when the board of control effected
the purchase of the butter tub factory,
which has long been operated within
the reformatory at Anamosa. The
state becomes the sole owner as soon
as the present contract expires next
fall. Then the state will undertake to
continue the. making Of butter tubs
and marketing them. 1t is an industry
that does not compete with any labor
in the state.

is, in the United States proper, 1915
cents, and in the Philippines, 1856
cents.
The average cost of the actual food
alone in the garrison ration during
cost of transportation for each ration
was 1888 cent, thus bringing the cost
of the food up to 24.27 cents. The.
additional 8 cents which must be add
ed to make the total cost of the ration
are to pay for the items enumerated
in the preceding paragraph.
Army men, army officers and those
officials and semi-oficials of the Gov
eminent who are allowed to purchase
their food supplies at the commissar-
lat are not worrying about the big
prices which are. causing SO much
misery to the country at large. While
it is true that the Government pur-
chases from the Beef Trust and other
big business members of the Food Con
troll, nevertheless the. Government is
able-by buying in large quantities
and by serving its rations efficiently
and in large numbers-to cut way un-
der the daily cost of living of the
average family.
IN the Panama Canal zone, the
United States Government runs a pub
lie Food Control which includes gen.
eral stores, cold storage and other
warehouses, packing grocery depart
ment, manufacturing plants and bak-
cry. In spite of the fact that the
prices of food stuffs on the Zone. must
include the cost of hundreds of miles
of transportation, the prices are lower
than they are in the United States.
Hotel meals are prepared and served
by the Government at 80 cents day.
The Democrats know that unless
they appear to do something about low
ering the cost of food the people will
rise at the polls and throw them out
of Office. SO far, however, not a Dem
ocrat. worth mentioning has ventured
to suggest that the real remedy for
the high cost of food is public owner
ship of food supplies and food stuffs.
The army has demonstrated that pub
lie production of meals is an economic
possibility, and the Democrats are
going to have hard time denying that
if the Government has made success
Of this on small scale, it can do it
for the entire nation on large scale.
