GEsTTONEs DE PAz.

Para nadie es va un secreto: Sc han
practicable gestiones encaminadas a OBJ
|tener ell asentimiento de las naciones
que guerrean a ciertas negociaciones
para llegar la paz.
Esta labor la ha realizado ell Gobier-
no de uno de los Estados min1sculos
de Europa: Luxemburgo.
Ell presidente del Gabinete del gran
ducado, NJ Eyschem, ha realizado dos
viajes, uno a La Haya y otro Berna
tSu mission no pod1a ser, en- ell fondo,
mas simpatica; la paz, no solicitada
por ninguno de los beligerantes, pod1a
ser aceptada por todos, sin detrimento
de su amor propio.I
Las cosas mas ,grandes surgen mu-
chas veces de las mas pequefas. iCosa
mas grande que la paz, y mas pequena
que la naci6n luxemburguesa!
Monsieur Eyschem razonaba su pre-
tension con una l6gica inflexible. En-
los momentos actuales la vic
toria esta indecisa Combaten los
Ejercitos de una y otra parte con ar
dor semejante Exception hecha de
lnglaterra, que, por sus condlclones
geografcas, no ha sido todav1a agredi-
da dentro de sus fronteras, todas las
naciones que pelican tienen invadidos
sus respectivos territories Las condi-
clones son las mismas para los adver-
sarios. No hay v1ncidos nj vencedo-
res. No sufre la dignidad militar de
nadie.
Ell instante es oportuno. Mas ade-
lante quiza sea tarde. Una victoria i'm
portante puede infuir en- ell amino del
que resulte victorioso, en- ell sentido de
negarse todo intento 'paciicador -
Con esta razonable teor1a, Ell presi-
dente Eyschem visit6 a los ministries
holandeses, y, aceptada en- principle la
generosa iniciativa, ell pol1tico luXem-
burgues emprendi6 ell viaje a Berna pa
ra intentar Ell mismo exito del Conse-
10 Federal de la Confederation Helve-
tica. Sus gestiones en la capital suiza
no han hallado la misma feliz acogida,
no por esp1ritu hostil de la suprema
pol1tica suiza.
LA ACTITUD DEL GRAN DUCADO.
Para muchos ha sido una cosa ines
perada la actitud del Gobiero de Lu-
xemburgo. Sc supon1a a este pals eno-
jado con Alemania. Sc han referido
algunos incidentes cuyo origen fue la
invasion por los germanos del minus
oulo Estado.
Sc ha hablado, por ejemplo, de una
vista que ell Kaiser hizo a la gran du-
quesa Maria Adelaide ell dla % de

la ciudad con su Estado Mayor .proce-
dente de Coblenza.
La joven Soberana Sc amNnt6 ante
ell Kaiser de que la neutraIidad del

LABOR AGENTS
NOT HINDERED
IN PHILIPPINES
George Logan, Visitor Here for
Day, Describes Growth of
Sugar Industry

No attempt was made by the Phil
ippine assembly to check the recruit
ing of labor to Hawaii other than the
passage Of law requiring the Hawaii
Sugar Planters Association to take
out special license in each province.
George Logan, secretary to the Phil
ippiHe commission, on vacation leave,
a passenger to San Francisco in the
United States transport Sherman, said
today that while the plan to tax re-
cruiting agents was aimed to discour-
age taking laborers from the Philip
pines, no further restriction was plac-
ed on the work of the agents.
The Philippines will harvest a nor
NAL crop of rice this season. pre-
dicted Secretary Logan. The fields in
Northern Luzon have been visited by
locust and drought and the yield there
will be very small. In the southern
islands a bountiful crop is expected TO
be gathered.
1mportations from Cochin China and
Siam will make up any deficiency.
Business conditions in Manila are
much improved, according to the Phil
ippine official.
The islands have of course felt the
effect of the Europea-A war. but its
people are in a better condition to
weather a financial crisis than at
many points along the China and ia
pan coast.
Every encouragement is offered
those who will take up the cultivation
of sugar" said Secretary Logan. The
government has appropriated a vast
sum TO assist in establishing centrals
throughout the better producing sec
tio2s of the archipelago Money will
be loaned to erect mill and to cover
the initial expense of planting and
harvesting a crop. Under improved
conditions and modern plants the Phil
ippine grower is today receiving bet
ter price for his sugar.
Secretary Logan expects to return
to the islands in the outward trip Of
the sherman.

HAWAII FAVORED
IN COMPENSATION
INSURANCE RATES
Decision Affecting Virtually
Every Employer in Territory
Reached in New York

Employers of all Hawaii will re
joice to learn that low insurance rates
will prevail throughout the territory
for policies under the new wOrkmen S
compensation act.
This act goes into effect on July |
and for a number of weeks the local
agencies of mainland and foreign COM
panieS have had up with their home
concerns the matter of rates for Ha-
wall. Now the local agents have re-
ceived word by telegraph and other
wise that the rates of Hawaii will be
based on the same standard of rates
as for California, with % per cent
off right along the line.
Hawaii's unusually good insurance
record in virtually all classes of busi-
ness is understood to be the reason
why the companies are willing to write
business here at the reduced rates. 1t
has been discussed for years that fire
insurance in Hawaii was very profit
able, only small percent Of the pre-
miums paid in being paid back for fire
losses, the losses being few and small
in amount.
d
paign to get the agents here interest
ed in securing low rates and each
agent then took action. The rates
were fixed by compensation board in
New York, which at the same time
was fixing rates for two states that
recently adopted sworkmen's compen%
sation by statute. This board virtu-
ally accepted the recommendations of
the Hawaii agents, based on the IA
vorable experience here.
The board also compared the Hawaii
act and the California act AS nearly
as could be learned today, all of the
agencies here have had notification
that the low rates will apply to the
local business. A few days ago word
came to the agents that the Califor-
MIA rate with 20 per cent discount
would apply but when the agents
urged further reductions, the 25 per
rates was decided upon.
This means great deal to the en-
ployers of Hawaii" said an insurance
man this morning. The volume OF
business done by the large employers
will be such that 25 per cent reduc-
tion means a material saving"
Insurance men say, so far as they
know no concerted action has been
taken by the sugar men with regard
to the new compensation act. Wheth-
er it will be handled through the
