Sugimura is unsparing in his con-

morning, some more tactful means
OF achieving our reason able desires
could have been devised than those
adopted. AS things stand, Japan has
undoubtedly suffered in international
prestige, and our trade has been dealt
a severe blow by the Chinese boycott,
which may last for a long, long time.
The Japanese diet at its last ses-

responsible representatives. At the

eastern seaboard was also immensely

Several Honolulu sugar men had not
heard OF the reduction until informed
of it today by the Star-Bulletin, but
at once conceded its importance.
In February the railroads, at the in
stance of the Interstate Commerce
Commission, made a reduction from
the west coast to Missippi valley
points which varied from 16 to % per
cent. This new cut, however, is a
fat cut of 20 per cent under the Feb
ruary rates, according to adyices at
hand, and so far has been announced
only by the Southern Pacific, but
others roads will, of course, fall into
line. .. -. -. Il: !
In February the average cut was
from SO to 46 cents per hundred
pounds. The new cut will be, rough
ly, from As to 81 cents per hundred,
and will be a cut of from 1920 to
$40, or saving of $3.50 per ton.
The beet sugar men on the main
land will also benefit by the cut, but
the net result will be, as viewed in
Honolulu, that territory largely con-
trolled by the beet trade, will now; be
open to Hawaiian growers on good
competitive basis. ".~ .....
Western refineries, under the new
rate, are enabled to compete with

So far this season of the 365 900
tons shipped from these islands. 49,
900 tons have been sent to California
refineries. A saving Of $l.S0 per ton
in mainland freight on that output
would total $315,000. ~ Il
One result of the new freight tariff
will probably be an increase in the
tonnage shipped to the western refin-
cries, which for the last two years
have not been run to full capacity
The reduction in the freight rate, it
is considered probable, was made to
allure tonnage to the west coast, and
thereby offset the loss of sugar han
