I'LL II III DECISION

III the businessmen of Honolulu stand fairly
by the decision reached yesterday, the settle
ment Of the federal building site problem should
not be far distant
The treasury department is left with its
hands free and its officials unhampered by RI
val and conflicting claims The question be-
comes one that the department will settle on the
basis Of getting the most for its available
money. It is fairly certain that the enlarged
Mahuka site will not be chosen The other sites
may be obtained with comparatively little trou-
bic Even il there should be condemnation
suits to fix the prices, it is not likely that the
suits will be delayed by technicalities.
The action of yesterday means that the first
consideration of the community is progress
The prime objectsis early action The para
mount necessity is the erection of an adequate
federal building here at an early date No OBJ
jections, ethical or otherwise, to any site chosen
BY the treasury department, are to be allowed
TO stand in the way Of getting the building and
getting it quickly. The sentiment Of yester-
days meeting is that every objection raised to
any of the sites must be waived if necessary.
Following the decision, and the moral agree
ment on the part of those businessmen at the
meeting, the treasury department should be al
lowed to settle the site question in its own way
II special agent should be sent here, the yari-
Gus advantages and disadvantages of the several
sites should be put fairly and fully before
him, but there should be no wirepulling or
tricky maneuyering.
Outside Of the businessmen of the two com.
mefcial bodies the community at large has not
been consulted However, the community att
large can do nothing and should do nothing but
abide by the plan Of action decided upon ycster.
day: # no site can be settled upon by the com
nercial bodies, there can be no general unity Of
opinion and that being the case, the rest of the
city should agree in the determination to let
Uncle Sam settle it

AIR lRlTT TO llsPIRAlE WITH NAVY

One of the most important recommendations
Of the board of officers recently appointed to
draw up comprehensive plan for the organiza
ton of a naval aeronautic service was that for
placing aeroplanes aboard all battleships, says
the April Popular Mechanics Magazine All the
powers that consider adequate sea power neces
sary for national defense are developing strong
aerial force to cooperate with their navies and
it now looks as if the United States would fol
low the lead of the other great powers The or
ganization will ultimately include not only aero
planes, but dirigibles, captive balloons and
kites If the recommendations of the naval
board are carried out, aeroplanes will be pro-
xided for every group Of ships on scouting duty

WHAT HAPPENED TO BENTON

The official report of British Consul Perce-
val on the killing of William S. Benton is con
siderably more significant than appears from
the mere statement that the death was not
caused by pistol shots. Gen. Villa and his asso-
siates have eontended that Benton was arrested
md duly tried and sentenced to be executed. It
is not conceivable that if such were the case he
would have been executed in any other way than
by shooting by firing squad. The inference
that Benton was stabbed throws even more
loubt on Villas whole story than has already
attached to it. If it be proved that Benton was
murdered, Great Britain is in no mood to let the
incident pass.

TRAITS AND FINANCE


After commenting that 'hesitation is still til
'uling spirit in business circles Henry Clew
II his latest financial letter says:
THAT the much-desired recovery in business is
slow in Undertaking. is due to widespread uneer-
tainty. Next to the worldwide economic reaction
and our own readjustment to new legal require
ments the Mexican problem is of large Importance.
There is doubt that the prevailing sentiment in
this country is against any armed intervention in
the affairs of Mexico Nevertheless it is recognized
that the long period of irritation produced by at
tacks upon American and foreign persons and prop
erty for which this government may be held respon-
sible, is producing dangerous situation; and in the
present state of public opinion relatively small
spark might easily start eonflagration
we are not pessimistc people; yet are
mercurial and seem unable to keep up our spirits
Mess business is always running at top speed:
something neither possible nor desirable
