100000 worth of per cent bonds
when it needs money for future Inn
pTcvements. The company may issue
as many of the per cent bonds as
1t may see fit during the next 10
years, up to a total of 100000.
John A. Balch, treasurer Of the COM
pany, said today that the establish
ment of the proposed exchange in Kali

being worked on, will do away with
the use OF manual, or old-style tele-
phone instruments In Kaalawai and

working order, the old telephones will
be replaced by automatic instruments.

Nearly All Return Home.

Ii Is generally conceded that most of
the Italian immigrants who come to
the United States do so in the expee-
will enable them to put aside enough
TO return home and live in virtual in
dependence. Statistics gathered by Elk
perts in the department of commerce
show that many Italians who come to
the United States do so for the pur-
pose of saving $1,000 or $500, so that
they may go home and live in comfort
The n of 1910 enumerated 1,343.-
125 Italian born people in this country.
and since that time about 100000 have
come over and are now residing here.
In 1910 there were 340,7T0 Italians in
New York. 1t is estimated now that
there are about 100000 in New York
city and more than 100000 in New
York state, 10000 in Newark and 1000
in Jersey City.
There Is naturally considerable spec
ulation over the probable effect on
American trade, both export and i'm
port. Italy has already become a pur-
chaser of vast quantities of supplies in
the United States, and 1t Is expected
these will be increased as her opera
lions proceed. 1t has been suggested
that the probabilities are that Italy's
exports to the United States will be
decreased with the absorption Of so
many of her productive laborers into
the field armies. This of course would
have the effect OF further lessening the
United States customs revenues, which
already have decreased to an extent
that may require a special session OF
congress.
