Additional Scheme is to Make

Pan Pacific Affair

Representatives from every country
bordering on the Pacific gathered in
Honolulu In 1917 in a great Pan-Pa,
cific Gas Congress this is one big
result of the activity of Harry l..
Strange at the International Gas Con.
gress which was held recently In San
Francisco.
While the congress was in session
attention was called to the fact that
although there wero thousands Of pro
gressiye workers in the gas business
in the countries about the Pacific, yet
these men were 50 widely separated
that they rarely had an opportunity
to learn OF the methods employed In
other countries
Building upon this hint Strange final
|Iy went to some OF the most prominent
OF the delegates at the congress and
called their attention to the fact that
Honolulu is the central point of the
Pacific and that IL congress were held
here Il would be very easy to get dele
gates here from many countries.
Would BE BIG Boost.
China, Japan, New Zealand. Austria
liza. Java. Mexico, Canada, Chilli, Ecua-
dor, Columbia, the United States
these are few Of the countries which
may be induced to send delegates here
for such congress-. 1t would be one
of the biggest boosts which Hawaii
has ever received.

the plah would nor only do great

Strange is now hard at work to make
The Pan-Pacifc Gas Congress q reality.
He has already practically cinched
the coming Of the gas congress OF the
United States for 1917. he says, and IL
he can carry his plans so much further
with this basis to build upon, there
is no doubt that the event will be one
of the biggest in the history of these
islands.
At the congress fleld at San Fran.
cisco this year there we're more than
600 delegates in attendance, and of
these almost all came from the yari-
GUS states.
Want To Come Anyway.

one wants to come to Hawaii any
way" said Strange this morning. land
IL we can give them the smallest bust.

ural curiosity, there is no doubt that
we can get crowd of the right peo.

"This congress would be the neces.

ance. And once let us get such
crowd down here and we can trust to
the islands themselves to send them
all away boosting for Hawaii night
and day"
The Promotion Committee and other
public bodies which have been advised
of Strange's plans are extremely en-
thusiastic. over them, and state that
they will do all they can to realize the
opportunity which is now held out to
the islands.
