THE WEAPON NEEDED TO FIGHT VICE

Passage of the red light abatement" bill by
the territorial Legislature will put in the hands
of the citizens a potent weapon against the in
creasingly brazen commercialized vice in
Honolulu
This bill improves upon the territorial stat
utes inasmuch as it allows an injunction to lie
against premises used for evil purposes Now
there is many a vice landlord, growing fat from
his profits Of debauchery, who is quite willing
to pay fines regularly for infractions of
the laws provided he can continue his bust
ness The earnings of one night would be snf-
fcient to pay the fines were he and his tenants
arrested and convicted under existing statutes.
But If his house is closed for six months or a
year, his gross business stops. He will either
have. to 60 to work always a thing detested
by the benefciaries of vice -or starve
The "red light abatement bill not only pro-
vides more effective method of hitting the
foul creatures who should be hit, but it gives
the ordinary citizen clearer idea of what he
can do.
If few dozen or few hundred Of Homo
lulu's ordinary citizens took the trouble to find
OUT for themselves what is going on in Iwilei
its sudden growth Of population, for instance
they would march to the Legislature in a body.
and demand that this law be passed. Their.
outraged moral sensibilities would not allow
them to rest until the weapon was in their
hands,

CONSIDER ONLY THE CHILD.
The Maui News saws editoriallr:

The Maui News says editorially: :
The fact that the pineapples Gamers are
taking a hand in the shaping of the child labor
law now before the legislature is pretty good
evidence that the matter has come up none too
soon. In all likelihood Hawaii win, in a com
paratiyely short time, become of considerable
importance in the manufacturing world, and
the temptation to draw upon the children be-
cause their labor is. cheap, will become increas-
ingly great The unfortunate part of iii that
even high-minded men are too often blinded
where their own interests are concerned. The
pineapple men argue that their work is light
and sanitary. But no work is proper for a
child that takes its undivided attention for nine
and a half hours at a time as the pending bill
provides. Many states now compel shorter
working hours than this for adults
{. But the bill will bear much careful thought.
For the best educators now recognize that prac-
tical work may be the best form of education,
provided it is constructive and stimulating,
and properly mixed with, regular book learn
ing But LET us be mighty sure that it is the
welfare of the child, and not that of the en-
ployer that has consideration in any bill that
may be passed = ssls

GIRLS Will SELL
BELGIAN COLORS
FOR Relief FUND

Belgian Day in Honolulu win come
SatHrda5, April 8. the morning before
Easter This date has been chosen
because 1t is thought then every one
will feel like giving something for
the sufferers of the war.
The plan of the committee is to
conduct the money-raising campaign
after the manner of a tag day. TWEEN
ty girls will work In couples from s
O'clock until 1 selling little Belgian
bows Df the national colors, red, yellow
and black. They viii take whatever
they can get for them.
No one will be asked to buy rib,
bon twice as the women do not wish
to make It unpleasant for anybody
The girls viii be- instructed to stay
on the streets or IN. the stores and;
not to bother business men In their
Offices.
The contributions will be divided
into three equal parts. one-third will
go to the Belgians who are in that
corner of Belgium not yet occupied by
the Germans A second win be sent
to the nuns at Streatham near Lon
don, who are caring for many Belgian
girls Of both the n0llfDkand peasant
classes. It is said that many Of the
girls there have had no word of their
parents since the beginniag Of the
war. The Remainder IS Intended for
the refugees at oxford

THE NEW PROMOTION COMMITTEE.

The new Hawaii Promotion committee
named by the Chamber Of Commerce, appears
10 be made up of men who combine the desire
to boost with the hustle and energy to do it
and who will make well-balanced advertising
body for the territory. Among the new mem
bers, Mr.. I. A. Thurston and Mr.. III Gooding
Field have been active in the work Of the spe-
cial outdoor committee and Supervisor Ben
HolIineer who represents the city, brings new
element into the organization.
An expression Of opinion often heard among
residents here who follow advertising move-
mtnts on the mainland and the trend Of Sec
tional 0r community advertising particularly
is that Hawaii should take generous space in
one or two national publications, such as the,
Saturday Evening Post or Collier s. That sort
Of advertising costs money; just how much
most Of the proponents probably do not realize.
Any sort Of campaign would use up $4,000
ia short time. Yet if the advertising were:
placed several weeks in advance Of the time
when the tide Of wealthy tourists flows out Of
New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Pittsburg,l
Chicago, Cleveland, St Louis and other big cit
les, it ought to hit the mark. AT any rate, the
new Promotion Committee might well look into
this as possible medium for Hawaii to draw
national attention to the Mid -Pacifc's attrac-
tons It is literally true that millions Of main
land folks never see any publicity sent from
Hawaii, while their eyes can scarcely drop upon
the advertising sections Of the magazines with
ont noticing attractively -worded and illus
tfated appeals from score of well known re-
sorts elsewhere.

RIP TO THE BOTTOM.

Proprietors of four or FIVE saloons have been
cited to appear before the liquor license board
and show cause why their licenses should not
be revoked for attractions of the law.
We believe the community is anxious to see
the sort of investigation that would rip through
fimsy excuses and yelled admissions and get
to the bottom of a few cases The commission
ers in private and public have said that they
would like to be able to get the facts about
some of the saloon operations. So would Homo
lulu generally. The hearings next Friday
ought to afford an opportunity.

The dismissal and disgrace Of the city build
ing inspector ought to be q warning to every
city official and employee. He was an efficient
man; he had an excellent record in the city ser
vice: but IN moment of weakness he fell and
brought upon the whole city administration
such ignominy that after investigation the
supervisors upheld the mayor in his suspension
and he was then dismissed
The lesson is hard one upon the official; it
ought to be graphic one to others. There is
not member of the board Of supervisors but
regrets deeply that the step was necessary;
there IS not one likewise who does not feel that
tbe honor Of the city service was involved.

HIGHWAY
IMPROVEMENT
1,o00-MlLE ROAD PROPOSED
Canada to 5uhd Route Similar to
Lincoln Hlphway-To Extend
From Winnipeg to Calgary.

Central.western Canada will have a
federal highway much after the plan
Of the Lincoln highway proposed
across the United States II the prof.
ect being urged by the board of con.
troll of Winnipeg is carried out This
project contemplates the construction
Of q concrete highway from Winnipeg
to Calgary to go through the more
thickly settled territory tapped'by the
Canadian Pacific railway.
The thousand miles of highway
through the provinces OF Manitoba,
Saskatchewan and halfway into AL
berta will be financed by the munich
palities by which the roadway would
be trRversed. Special appropriations
also will be sought from the provincial
governments. The project has been
received with enthusiasm In a number
of the larger cities along the proposed
route.
1t has been pointed out by the pro-
motors OF the highway through the
prairie provinces that its construction
would enhance the value OF the farm
lands for several miles on both sides
Of the concrete roadway.

Baptist Church

There never has yet been taber-

to seat the people attending the Bill

she would build large enough to take
care of the church going people; but
she tinds that thousands have to be
turned back every night for want Of
room.
From the several communications
we have received in regard to the
meetings OF Evangelist W. l.. Head
of Atlanta, Georgia, we notice that
this is also his experience. Only
three more weeks until he will be in
Liberal. See what others say about
him.
Lamar, Colo, March 6.-Rev. w. L.
Head, Evangelist from Atlanta, Ca,
came here to hold meeting for the
Baptist church, but after the first
week their church vas overlooking,
so we made arrangements to unite
with them. We have had three
weeks of union meetings and there
have been one hundred and thirty-five
converts to date, Evangelist Head
has been absolutely fair with us, as
to preaching and converts in the
union meeting. He breaches the full
gospel; is an excellent preacher. Hits
sin hard, but does not offend by using
personalities, and gets his converts
TO an experience by using the altar.
| am sure the Methodists will enjoy
working with this cool.headed but
warm-hearted evangelist from Geor-
gia. C. Ii. Inman. Pastor First NJ.
