Scent PLOT OF
SUGAR KINGS
TO swing VOTE
"Mhy Was Free Vacation Trip.
Given to congressman, Is
Question at Washington

Now that 60 or more senators and
representative have enjoyed a six
weeks, junket TO Hawaii free or cost
10 ,aefnselyes, suspicion has been cast
en- The trip, which, supposedly. WAS
financed by the Hawaiian government,
says a news bureau DESPATCH sent out
broadcast frcm Washington on June
20.
Why was this Tree vacation given
to so large a number Of cur senators
and representatives? Is being asked.
by way of answer. some OF the
Democrats who enjoyed the hospitality
OF the Hawaiians reply that the junket
was planned and carried through TO
work up sentiment in favor Of the re-
peal CT the free-sugar clause OF the
Underwood tariff law. Others. not
much impressed with the sugar talks
they heard in the islands. say the trip
was designed by sugar kings TO create
sentiment IN favor OF the sllip-purchase
bill
Members who accepted invitations
understood and believed that they
were to be the guests OF the Hawaiian
Rovefnmcnt Even now. il is asserted
that the Hawaiian legislature appro-
prlated the money TO defray the ex-
pehses CT the visiting senators and
Representatives. Iuf Hawaii is far
away. and it is possible that con-
gressicnal investigation may be order
I'd TO ascertain whether the trip was
lea.4y financed by the government. or
the costs were betrayed by the sugar
growers, shippers or others
II IS tue. according to men who
sgent on the trip that there we're many
Cccasicna when the residents attempt
cd TO Impress On their guests the dam
age that VIII be done the sugar indus
trk OF Hawaii cnce sugar goes on the
free list, as It is scheduled to do May
u, 1916 II Is also true, according TO
these same members. that their Ha-
waIian hosts impressed on them Ha-
waits lack OF adequate transportation
facilities.
Islanders Tell Of Needs.
1T Is also true. however, that the
1Iawaiians impressed on their congress
sionalz visitors the need for liberal ap-
preparations for harbor improvements,
for fortifcations and for other public
works
There seems to be no one In a
position to tell positively the reasons
which led to the Hawaiian iunket, and
there is no enc in Washington pre-
pared to- deny the reports that the
5nnket was financed in whole or in
part by The sugar producers. or by
the shippers, or by the steamship
Ines This talk has raised doubt. An
Investigation can be Of little practical
value. however, for there was no great
wrong done. even If the charges be-
true. and the most that can be said
Is that the senators and representa-
tiTts who made the trip we're the vic1

through Waikane and Kahana for a
distance of 1856 feet, There remains
only 2020 feet to be cut to connect the
main tunnel and when this is accom-
plished the three links will form one
continuous tunnel $500 feet long. or
11.04 miles. In addition to this ditch
1858 feet long, or about three and
one-haIf miles, Is used to carry the
water to the various cane fields at
the south end of the tunnel This
ditch is cement lined on both bottom
and sides.
The entire tunnel is cement lined
and for a considerable distance. it is
also cement-arched over stone walls.
The project, when completed, will
represent an outlay Of about $2.250,-
600. 1t has been proposed that the
city bore a similar tunnel closer tc
the city in the mountains and obtain
a supply of water sufficient to care
for the needs of Honolulu for so years
to come.

News continues to come from Mex

because of the lack of food supplies.
The State Department is advised that
this condition is due in large meas
ure to the suspension of railroad COM

on account of the food shortage.
Unofficial adviCes received here are

PATRIOTS IN SKIRTS
LAUDED BY SPEAKER
Edwin c. Brandenburg Tells Bellcourt
students There Is Peril in
Woman Suffrage.

The great trouble with woman suf-
frage is that after the vote has been
won the better element refuse to mix
with the rough and tumble element
at the polls, with the result that the
uneducated class dominate the polls
and sway legislation. said Hdwin c.
Brandenburg. president of the Boa I'd
of Trade. in addressing the graduate
of Belcourt last night.
II do not propose to advocate or
disparage woman suffrage" said Mr..
Brandenburg. but under the laws of
the United States you are one of it's
citizens, and. as an integral part of
the nation, it looks to you for sup
port. Not necessarily upon the stump
or in political campaigns. but in such
missions as may come your way. As
a woman, you can be as much a pa
triot as man."
Mr.. Brandenburg declared that the
pupil of today is not satisfied with the
mere rediments of education. and that
man is beginning to realize that wom-
an is as much entitled to an educa-
ton as himself.
A diploma for the full course was
awarded Miss Catherine Jefferson
Grover, oe Kentucky, by Mrs. Mary B.
principal of the seminary.
Certificates in English were awarded
Miss Winifred Mildred Ellingham, of
Indiana, and Miss Lillian Marie Gross
helm. of Iowa. The invocation and
were recited by the Rev
John Lee Allison. pastor of the Second
Church, of Alexandria.

war PROBLEMS
BEFORE CABINET
Situation Created by Germany
and England Again
Discussed.
NO NEW COURSE PLANNED
Administration Inclined to Leave Brit
ish Politics Alone for
the Present.
NO NEW COURSE PLANNED

With the reassembly Of the Cabinet
yesterday after the interruption
caused by the Presidents trip to New
York. discussion of the serious problems
growing out of the acts of the two lead
ing belligerents, England and Germany,
were again taken up for discussion.
Though there Is no lessening Of the ad-
ministration's conviction that some of the
acts Of the British government with re-
gard to neutral trade are wholly outside
the law and must be dealt with by this
government accordingly, the discussion
developed preponderance iof opinion in
the administration in favor of not riskinC
a complication of the situation by adopt
ing any new course in reference to. Brit
ish policies while the serious issue with
Germany remains in its present delicate
state.
Officials of the State Department were
greatly interested in the statement put
forth Thursday by the British govern
ment, defending itself from the general
charge of unfairness and lack Of con-
sideration for American rights and inter-
ests with regard to shipping matters
II was generally admitted that the state
ment itself Is a favorable sign of an
intention on the part of the British au-
thorities to do more than has been done
heretofore to lessen the grounds OF
American complaint.
One statement in the British announce
ment caused real disturbance. This
was the assertion by the British tina:
they understood the arrangement made
between the British government and the
American cotton shippers to be "ac-
ceptable to the United States govern
ment."
4. 8. Not a Party.
As the United States government was
not a party to this arrangement and in
sisted that everything it's representatives
did in order to facilitate its operation
should be regarded as informal and unof-
fcial. much surprise was expressed that
the British should have thus referred to
this governments position. Consequently
a statement was issued. in behalf of For
eign Trade Adviser Rose setting forth
again the departments position.
The British Embassy. however. no
sooner learned Of the action at the State
Department than it also issued a state
ment. which tended further to clear up
the whole matter. The British Embassy
statement asserted that the London state
ment was in error on the point in ques-
ton and declared that there had never
been any question of formal and official
between the United States
government and the British Embassy.
