MARRIAGE |S
 SUREST CURE
Remedy for Militancy in England is to Wed Off SuperfIous Women ill the Colonies, But the Demand is Small
CBy w. Hamilton Rhodes.)


 LONDON, Feb 21-(SpeciaI Cable) In an unflattering pamphlet concern ing the suffragette agitation Sir Ann roth Wright advanced the suggestion that the true remedy for the super fluity of women in England-Which he regarded as the cause of all trouble was for the superfiuous ones to re move themselves to the dominions and marry there This view is examined at some length in the Second Interim Report of the Dominions Royal com- mission just issued.
 The report points out that there is a superfluity of 1,179,000 women in England and Wales and a deficiency of 222.000, as compared with males, in Australia. But of the surplus wo- men in this country it appears that 210,000 are over forty and for the most part are to be found in two classes, elderly ladies and women servants" of whom the former are hardly possible migrants" and "the latter can now ill be spared
 The fact is that domestic servants ftlf 'NNDIltillo SCeI CF- III tue lllOIHeI country because here as in the dominions, the tendency is for women to adopt industrial and commercial life and to abandon domestic ser vice"
 In Australasia the same problem which exists in England has arisen The proportion of unmarried women to married women between the ages of ? and 50 is practically identical with the proportions in England and Wales And, the reports adds, "it would seem that, statistically speak ing, the chances of marriage for wo- men migrants are only slightly higher in Australasia than at home"
 If there is no great demand fo, wives in Australia, there is an i'm Terious and practically unlimited de- mand fer female domestics. In some cases before ship carrying womer immigrants sights the land large number of its passengers have beer engaged by wireless telegraphy" 1 Yet complaints are made that the i women who go out know too mucf ! or too little They are either fac

Upon their scroll for fame must rest forever this foul san

Tourist Promotion

Sometime ago the Maui Chamber Of
Commerce decided to withdraw its nm
ancial support from the Hawaii Pro
motion Committee, and now we hear
the the valley islanders will carry on
tourist promotion scheme of their
own, by keeping man in Honolulu
for the purpose OF steering tourists
definitely to the island Of Maui.
1t has been observable for long
time that the results of the work OF
the Hawaii Promotion Committee have
been Of pecuniary interest only to the
hotels, curio dealers and chau6eurs OF
Honolulu; the Hawaii branch Of the
local steamship company: and the Hilo
Railway, Volcano Stables Company
and couple of Greek eating houses
on Hawaii. The benefits received by
West Hawaii, Maui and Kauai from
the tourist business has been, and Is,
more of a joke than business reality.
Asked If we are in favor OF the
Hawaii Promotion Committee as an
institution, we reply, INTERESTINGLY
yes. Are we in favor of promoting
tourist travel? Yes, again; most GER
tainly.
But the point is that the Hawaii
Promotion Committee does not meet
the requirements of the islands out
side of Honolulu and the volcano
route. For the purposes Of Honolulu,
Hilo and the Volcano House, it is a
good thing; and the out5in-the-cold
districts are glad of it.
We do not charge any laxness on the
part of Hawaii Promotion Committee
in its efforts to steer tourists our way
and to Maui and to West Hawaii. In
fact we are prepared to concede that
very strenuous efforts have been made
by it, at times, along those lines. What
We do think, however, is that the Ha-
wall Promotion Committee Is incap-
able of delivering the goods in SO
far as the islands, outside OF Honolulu
and the Volcano route, are concerned.
1t has, therefore, come to a pass
where If Maui, Kauai and other
island districts desire tourists they
must themselves go to Honolulu after
them IL sufficiently interested, the
business-like way to 60 about it is to
keep men at Honolulu for the purpose
OF directing tourists to the individual
outside localities referred to; and in
this respect, Maui is on the right tack
We shall watch the Maui experiment
with interest, and with every hope that
it may prove successful.
While on this subject, we would like
to say that a spirit of what seems to
be arrogant condescension seems to
afflict some of our Honolulu friends
nowadays when it comes to dealing
with communities of the outside
islands. A streak of it runs through
Honolulu star-bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1912-2010, 1914-09-14

the Hawaii Promotion Committee. and
there Is still larger streak in the ter
ritori9l government We are inclined
to the opinion that il is not appreciat-
ed on Hawaii and Maui, and are Jolly
well satisfied that Il is resented on
Kauai. An instance of this came up
last week when the new superintend-
ent of public works made a grand
stand play before the Harbor Commits
sioners and in the Honolulu rewspap-
ers, the intent being 10 create the inn
preston tnat he was seeking to grant
some great favor to the island Of
Kauai, but could not do so on account
OF the failure of the Kauai Chamber
of Commerce to answer promptly his
letters for certain information.
The great fayor-the important con-
cession-of this wonderful man in this
wonderful department was a proposal
TO appoint two wharfngers on Kauai
at the grand salary of IS per month
each,
This is merely a small case in point.
But it illustrates the spirit Let Ho-
nolulu get ont OF its patronizing mood,
and come right down to business with
the outside islands ON the tourist and
other propositions, and better results
will surely follow.
Returning directly to the subject of
tourist promotion. we are unable to
see why Kauai and Maui should con-
tribute to the expense of inducing
travel ON the Honolulu-Hilo route un-
less there should be hope OF more
tourists "seepings through into these
localities than have been in evidence
in the past. 1t would be just as rea-
sonable for the Hawaii Promotion
Committee to contribute to the sup
port of the tourist committees OF San
Francisco and Los Angeles, on the
ground of the travel that might "seep''
through over there into Honolulu. Sug-
gest the latter proposition to Homo
lulu. and Honolulu would 30 up in
the air." And at the same time Homo
lulu expects Maui and Kauai to
do that very thing. Garden Island.

SUPERVISORSLAY
DOWNLAW TO THE

The supervisors refused to be sway

instead to adhere to their original ac-
ton and insist that the owners sig
Nifty willingness to comply with the
building ordinance or refrain from
further work en- the new fifth story of
the structure.
Attorney Peters, representing the
owners, asked that the construction
be permitted to proceed on the pres
emit lines, and that meantime a test
case taken to the police court and
from there to the supreme court to
determine whether the supervisors
have authority to compel the installa-
ton CT an additional stairway and fire
shutters on the fifth story windows.
He explained thu the delay in the
work is working a hardship en- the
owners and on the members OF the
Commercial club, which is to occupy
the additional floor. He stated, and
the board tacitly admitted, that the
blame for failure to comply with the
building ordinance in this respect lies
not with the owners originally, but
with the architect.
Supervisors Petrie, Wolter, Pacheco
and Mcclellan in turn declared. how
ever, that the owners had received
due notice nearly a month ago and
had been asked to say whether they
stood ready to comply with the ordi-
nance. No answer had come from
them. In the premises, these supervi-
scrs said, the board could not consist
emily grant the request to permit re-
newaI Of the work. To bring the mat
ter into court, work on the building
likely win now be renewed and the
city and county attorney will proceed
to arrest the owners and obtain an in
junction TO step the construction, az
ter which the case will go eventually
to the supreme court and the merit or
the building ordinance determined
This, Attorney Peters estimated. will
REQUIRE about months time. Mean
time active construction on the Nc
Candless building probably will be
blocked
The board today also disposed of
the fish market inspection problem by
adopting a resolution calling on Sher-
If Rose to maintain fish inspection at
the market with his force CT police
officers. This viii not mean that any
policemen viii be stationed regularly
at the market as inspectors, but that
various officers who patrol the beat
on which the market is located shall
give part Of their time to examining
the stocks in the stalls.
