When the War Is Over

THE St. Louis Post-Dspatch commenting on
i the review of the sugar situation in Hawaii
in the light of the impending removal of all pro
tective duties as published in The Advertiser says
this paper STRIKES false note with its pesSimlsm
under existing conditions" such conditiG Is being
those brought about by the war. This effort OF
the St. Louis paper is par with that OF Our
Governor, who cannot what the sugar men
have to complain about" Neither appear to real
ize that abnormal war conditions not going to
last, while Hawaii's sugar industry must continue
throughout the years if this portion of the Union
is to remain prosperous American community.
1t is ridiculous to hold up the situation brought
about as result OF the and base any arEu-
ments on it concerning the tariff. Because hell
has broken loose in Europe and disturbed econ
omic conditions throughout the world is no reason
why Hawaii should not continue to base its reck-
oning on the normal conditions that will prev all
after the war is over. If, as Our Governor and
the Post dispatch seem to think, should reap
Our big harVests today without thought of the
morrow, we would place ourselves in the same
class as the Arkansas cabin dweller who did not
need to repair his roof as long as the weather
STAYED fair and could not fix it when it raned.
The Governor. would have no complaining now
when the weather and the conditions are favorable
and when the conditions change he can announce
pathetically "Well it's too late to do anything
now"

WELSH MINERS VOTE
TOCONT|NUE STRIKE

LONDON, July 16-In an effort to
force the government to take over the
Cardiff coal mines, the representatives
of the miners, in conference here yes
terday, voted to continue the strike,
the vote standing $50 to lib. As the
navy is dependent upon the Welsh
mines for its coal supply and an acute
situation would develop were the
mines to lie idle, the admiralty yes
terday took over all, the reserve stocks
at the mines.
II is certain, however, from the an
nounced intention of some of the min
ers to return to their work today and
from the fact that the responsible
leaders among the unionists are OPP
posed to the carrying on of the strike
in the face of the national crisis, that
the affair will have no practical effect
uron the naval situation and that the
strike will be over within a few days.
Last night all the coal mines in
South Wales, with the exception of
two of the smaller collierics, were iHle.
By this evening work will be under
way to quite a large extent in most
of the mines.

China's Gain Our, Loss

PATRIOTIC Americans can hardly find unadrl-
] terated pleasure in the news that Chinese
shipping company is soon to have hve-passenger
liners plying between San Francisco and Shang-
hal while the United States is soon to have none
China's progress is something America may re-
ioice to see but there is humiliation in the show
ing that China is able to progress while the Uni
ted States has to go back.
Only in a very incidental way will this new
steamship line be Of benefit TO Honolulu, so long
as the coastwise shipping legislation IN force IS
continued Hawaii has oriental bound exports
and there is little travel Shanghai wards while the
ships will be tabued so far as any Hawali-to-Coast
business or travel concerned.
The Chinese line is primarily to compete with
the Japanese lines for the Americana Chinese bust
ness, but the existence of the new line means, as
we'll, competition for the Pacific Mail, should that
line manage to find way of escape from the
bankruptcy threatened in the Seamens Act, and
the promotion of this Chinese line may fur
nsh another good reason for the Pacific Mail to
quit.
Is it not about time for the chamber of COM
merce to start in with its promised campaign to
have the coastwise law either repealed or suspend
ed so far as it affects passenger carrying? A cam
pagn we'll launched and properly followed through
might help the fight now under way against the
Seamen's Act, even if it failed to secure some
amelioraton of the ti-Hawai tourist travel con-
dltiOnS ,,-.
If such campaign is to be carried through, now
is the time to launch it. When congress meets
there will be SO many other things to look into
that the needs of the Islands will, usual be
sidetracked Incidentally there is certain to be
a special session early this fall. it is about the
season too to start campaign to have Kuhio in
Washington in time to do something for his con-
Stituency.

America Must Reconsider

\ S the day for the putting into force of the
"A Seamens Act draws nearer it becomes more
and OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES atted over hast
lily and Without thbdshtbf Aitti& Consequences in
its passage The bill was passed for its effect with
in the United States, while it's enforcement affects
matters. outsd of the United States There comes
the rub The Democratic majority of the Amer
lean congress can truckle to organized labor, but
il cannot force the rest of the world to do the same,
and without the approval of score of other ma
tons the law is prevented by treaties from coming
into full force. = ''HN 1900 -
One of the provisions Of the act entities foreign
seama. to receive on demand one-half OF the wages
he has earned at every American port at which the
vessel touches after the voyage has begun This
virtually destroys any contract to the contrary
made by foreign shipowner with the men who
are employed on his vessels. Another provision
frees the foreign from danger OF arrest for
desertion in American ports. Other provisions IN
conflict with treaty rights concern the require
ments that sevcnty-6ve per cent OF each vessefs
crew shall be able to understand the language Of
the officers, and that crews shall comprise GER
tain proportion of able seamen. Measures for the
promotion of safety at sea are also involved. In
accordance with the law the United States has in
formed the twenty-one nations that it will terni-
nate the clauses in their treaties in conflict with
this act and thus arises delicate situation that
has already brought protests to Washington.
The danger in the situation is obvious. ~ the
foreign nations refuse to denounce the sections of
the treaties in conflict with the Seamen's Act, II
will be incumbent upon the United States to cancel
the conventions as a whole, and negotiate new
treaties In that event it is reasonable to suppose
that the foreign governments would demand con-
cessions as an offset to any they might be willing
to give and a consequence it might be difficult
to find basis of agreement, except after protract-
ed diplomatic discussions: Our foreign trade might
therefore be upset to degree hitherto unknown
for most of the treaties in question cover every
provision between the United States and other sig
natories regarding 'amity, commerce and naviga-
ton" 1t is hard diplomatic nut for Washington
to crack but the seamens law is filled with pit
falls for those who must enforce and interpret its
manifold clauses. Washington's legal experts have
not yet been able to elucidate it, shipowrers find
themselves in hopeless quandry and furthermore
the law takes from foreign governments their right
to regulate their own shipping affairs. 1t is not
surprising thereiofe to hear that congress may be
asked to make amendments that will bring the act
within the limits of reason.
