sERBIA's PLIGHT

Never before in the worlds history has the
cruelty Of war to non-combatants and its
friehtful economic waste been so apparent as
now Europe, with less than year of war
written into her red annals, is sinking into
financial and industrial stagnation except for
the factories and arsenals pouring out NUM-
tons Of battle. From the smaller countries
come rending cries Of distress.
Little Serbia is prone upon the field, though
still staggering upright now and again to repel
the Ahstrians. According to Associated Press
dispatches the distressing feature Of the sitna-
ton Ia Serbia is the difficulty of rehabilitating
the hundreds of thousands who were obliged
10 abandon homes and lands that became battle
1reas during the Austrian ihvasions Officers
of the Serbian government see no reason why
the people should not return, but the difficulty
hes IN providing them with grain for replant-
ing and feeding them Until new crops are har-
vested. This task has bean undertaken but the
government is handicapped by lack of railway
facilities and the almost yimpassable roads.
Help abroad is being soughtby the government
for this agricultural rehabilitation.
Societies that have operated in former years
70 instruct the rural poi ation IN methods Of
intensive farming have been demoralized by
three wars in such rapid succession. There
fore, despite all the government is seeking to
accomplish, visitor is apt to get the impress
sion that nobody in Serbia is doing anything
that does not pertain to the support of the
army Women and children have to be sacri-
feed to the needs of the grown male population
who must be kept in fighting trim and in the
Iehting line at any cost.
Everywhere in Serbia the Associated Press
correspondent heard the national plea that the
country lis fighting not only for the mainten-
1nce Of her present area, with its population of
over four millions, but for the liberation of the
sIav states Of Austro-H Hungary. = If she sue
ceeds. some eleven millions viii be added to her
population and every one recognizes that so

hardship, but there are said 70 De 2 million per-
sons really suffering from lack Of food am

rs THE PICTURE-BRIDE SYSTEM
NECESSARY? >

DIR. Sidney L. Gulick has won the admiration
of every patriotic American citizen who has
heard him speak here by his emphasis on Ha-
waii as an American commonwealth.
He advises no surrender of American ideals
| or American standards in this melting pot of
nations - On the contrary, he emphasized to
his Japanese as well as to his American friends
that the future of Hawaii is to be worked out
on American lines. .a5r
In his address at Central Union Church on
Sunday night he pointed out that the educa-
ton of young japanese in their own language
and ideals as well as in the American language
land ideals means an education Sin fundamental
ideas profoundly different. 2
Yesterday, in "a talk at the japanese Y. NJ.
&C. A., he suggested that Hawaiian born Japan
|ese men should marry Hawaiian born Japanese
girls. He found IN the picture BRIDE system
IA factor delaying the Ainericanization of the
Japanese. s. q. IS
Probably every resident of Honolulu who has
seen the picture brides 2 herded into the ter
|ritory will agree with DR.. Gulick that the sys-
tenn is not good one. Japanese male immi
grafton into the territory has been stopped by.
the { gentlemen S agreement but hundreds of
females are brought in every year There may.
have been time when such course was eco
nomically necessary but is it necessary nowf
is it wise now?
The Star Bulletin has heard from we'll
informed japanese themselves that they do not
believe the picture bride system should be per.
petuated. A year ago, after this paper had
published some Of the immigration figures.
showing the large number Of arrivals of,Japan-a
ese women to. join prospective husbands they
had never seen, influential japanese indicated
their own dissatisfaction with the system The
response that DR. Guliek received when he pro-
posed yesterday that Hawaiian-born men
should seek Hawaiian born wives shows there
is no sentimental argument against such a
course
We should not counsel arbitrary action by
the United States to force an abandonment Of
the picture bride immigration. Very prob
ably if the matter is brought properly to the
attention of the Japanese government, the Nip
ponese authorities themselves will restrict the
Of emigrant women, taking action
similar to that applied to males under the
gentlemen s agreement. =

According to the present theory

dictate that at least one shot was
fired at very close range.

borne out by practically every aspect
Of the case. The two women taker

were released Thursday, and Chief
OF Police Bailey said early Thurs
day evening that the two men who

fore morning.

locate the gray touring car within

event arrests will follow A num-
Der of people were questioned Thurs
day, and the fact was brought out
by county officers that Warren, iii

of the store called Thursday at the
Fert Worth Undertaking company's
