WOOL MARKET
Is IMPROVING
EFFECT OF BRITISH EMBARGO
HAS AIDED AMERICAN GROW
Err IMMENSELY.
Unwashed Wool Selling at % Cents to
Grower No~-ouarters ana Three
Eighths are Higher.

The wool market for the year 1915
has beet an unusual one. Owing TO
the limited supply OF domestic woods
on hand when the tariff bill putting
wool on the free list went into effect
on January I. 1914. Il did not have as
much OF a depressing effect as general
ly anticipated. FOreign markets were
active and tending higher and the
small quantity OF domestic woods on
hand. Were keenly sought after by
mills in need OF same.
When the new wool season opened.
hue unwashed woods -old at IS cents.
Fine washed wCols at rs cents. These
prices were fully sustained up until
August /. Then. with the declaration
OF war. :he wool trade In general with
all others, was very much depressed.
Dealers by the middle Of September,
were very anxious to sell wool. but
manufacturers facing the Identical
conditions. found 4 sl%ackening demand
for cloth and would buy but sparingly.
Fine unwashed delaine which old
in June and July for ISL cents. was
sold during September n October az
"a cents. With the opening however
OF the FIRST London sales. held after
the declaration OF wa, the English
government placed an embargo ON
wool, n this has acted far better
than any tariff we have ever had for
the beneht OF the wool grower. IN
place of having a IL cent duty as 1 n
the Payne-Aldrich bill. no wool could
be shipped either from Australia or
England for several months. Prices
haye bAen effected by this. and forced
higher. Fiie ~unwarhed woods today
are selling at % cents 10 the grower
Medium woods. such as one-fourtn
and three-eign.hs. have felt the effect
or the var even more so as this class
OF stock enters largely into war sup
plies such as uniforms. sweaters ana
hosiery. Prices for one-fourth and
three-eights today are higher than
they ave been for many years. one
fourth and t~hree-eighths are quoted in
the eastNrn market at 50 TO 80 cents.
During the past wcek an arrange.
ment has been completed by the Tex
tile Alliance 81 America. by which
merino woods can be imported direct
from London. Just wha effect this

The Best Giving

A n application for relief for family in dis
= tress always opens up opportunities to do
many kinds of service. The immediate relief of
the acute distress receives the first attention but
this relief leads only to paupersm if nothing more
is done. The Associated Charities endeavors TO
discover and to remove the underlying causes
that compel family or individual to seek food
shelter or clothing. ,.' ~
AT the present time four skilled workers are
required to do this work in Honolulu. From
elght-thirty in the morning to haf-past four each
afternoon these workers are visiting in the homes
of the poor or talking to them in the Office. Ior
communicating with their friends or relatives.
Once a"week a group Of about fifteen people
who are interested in philanthropic endeavor
meet at the Office of the Associated Charities and
formulate plans for each family which will
restore it to state of selfsupport, if that is pos
sible, or to give them the wisest kind of continu-
Gus relief These plans are executed dailv by the
four workers employed, or by members of the
Rehabilitation, Committee, or by other friends who
are giving volunteer service :y'
This is the kind of practical charity that should
receive support. Aid given to it is aid given to
the deserving poor and aid given in the best way

q while something hobs M to- show that the big
municipality is not dafk al! It rs painted ~ ~
Making the saloon men pay the cost of giving
the liquor cure to toolibera customers is the lat
est achievement in this line and also the splendid
work done for women by the Woman's Protec-
tive Bureau of Oakland, which has more than
made good since its establishment as an expert
n1ent year or SO ago. ... NIX.
A fearful little woman called on Miss Beatrice
Mccall, head of the Bureau, and told a sad tale
OF an erring husband, who unhesdful of the warn
ings Of his spouse, had insisted on treading the
primrose path untilNhis job was gone and his fam
lily destitute. He was a good man, the little
woman said, and treated the family well except
when he was drinking TO
SO Miss Mccall got busy and had the husband
take the liquor cure at the expense of the Bureau
Then, her sense of poetic justice being stirred,
she decided that it up to someone else to
pay the bills instead of the city So she wrote a
number of letters - not threats, of course, but
suggestions. sB
The men to whom these suggestions were sent
evidently believed as did the head of the Bureau.
for few days later five of them, all saloon men
OF whom the little womans husband had been a
customer, filed into the Office of Miss Mccall and
came through with big check, sufficient to cover
all the expenses of the drunk" cure and to give
the family enough to get along with until the
husband could start again - &

Touching on the future Herr Heine declares
that in these portentous times courage and de-
Termination must not be weakened. ~
"The party, without hesitation chose its right
full place at the outbreak of the war; he says.
Now, in the middle of the war, while dangers
increase and the ability Of every man is needed
the party must not vacillate thereby causing con-
fusion in the ranks Of Germany's defenders This
might cause the most serious consequences for
the whole German people, including the working
classes .'sEs4
In closing he calls UPON. the gsmfades to stop
their attempts to disrupt the parity with eonse-
quent danger to the Fatherland 81
1.-THE time is not oppottune,D he says, ito resort
to selfdeception and TO hope that eventually
things will not be SO bad. Every day now may
do much damage. It's the custom Of those in
the majority to, take no notice Of confused and
untrue attacks on the defense of the Fatherland
IT Is, TO be true, neither easy nor comfortable
to oppose those who, with the authority Of pre-
tended superior learning and intelligence spread
abroad a mass of untruths--such, for example, as
that IL : war is war of conquest by Germany
that twas begun in order to suppress the work
