tourist trade here Is SO largely the
basis of business among the retail

Hawaii and within three months had
run up bills amounting TO $4,000 He
went bankrupt Six months later he
had accumulated still larger bills
with the very merchants who had seen
him 60 bankrupt before. This may
sound like careless business. It is
more than that It is criminal care.
