TWO GERMAN ToRPEDoERs
RUN DOWN; CREW SAVED.

LONDON, Eng, May 3.-Two Ger.
man torpedo boats were run down and
sanl by a squadron Of four British
destroyers in the North Sea on Sat.
urday, according 10 report given out
at the admiralty last night. =. I.
The two torpedo boats were sighted
by four destroyers of the G class,
which have speed OF 80 Knots, and
long chase ensued.
Following the action, the British
picked up as survivors nearly all the
members of the torpedo boat crews,
as in all, including two officers.
These have been landed in England
as prisoners. 49,. -:
included in the adrniralty's official
statement last night 70 a list Of the
casualties sustained by the fleet in
the operations in the Dardanelles to
cover the landing Of the troops from
the British and French transports.
This list makes the recent despatch
es from constantinople, reporting va
rious serious damages to the British
bombarding fleet, appear ridiculous.
The. admiralty's report covers the
operations during the six days in
which the landing was effected. The
fleet losses during these six days
were 26 men killed and So wounded.

bus has attained its greatest prominence, the
fact was brought out in hearing before Par
lament that whereas the cost of maintaining a
certain road surface prior to the advent Of the
motor bus was 6483 d. per square yard, it was
increased to 13,403 d. after one year of bus
traffic, or slightly over 100 per cent. In this
case it was the public-or in other words, the
Middlesex County Council-appearing in it's
own behalf to demand relief from new burden
of taxes imposed by the bus traffic.
The logical conclusion from the committees
report is that if the public continues to support
the jitney, and thereby weakens the street rail
ways and ultimately put them out of business,
they must expect a zone system of fares, be-
cause the small jitney cannot operate over
much longer route than three miles at profit
The American cities have strongly fought the
zone system on account of the destruction of
value and the congestion of popula-
ton.
On the financial side the committee S investi-.
cation showed that municipalities or counties
which receive percentage of the income of
street railways must inevitably suffer from the
operation of the jitney, which has greatly de-
creased the earnings of the street-carlines.
The report as whole emphasizes that in the
long run jitneys are an economic burden upon
the community out of proportion to their pos
sible service. .E--.

TWO VIEWS OF NATIONALIST.

A noted Swedish economist and one with a
thorough knowledge of diplomacy, declares
that before permanent peace can be assured
nationalism which he apparently holds al
most synonymous with patriotism-must be
done away with. "a. -.
The speaker was August Schvan, his address
being before. the American Academy of Politi-
cal and Social Science at Philadelphia last Sat
urday. He holds that the entity of the state
must pass and sovereign governments must be-
come mere boards of administration if peace
is to reign worldwide and eternal. "
Mr.. Schvan is former Swedish diplomat.
He was a member of the Swedish legation at
st Petersburg (now Petrograd), former secre-
tary to the foreign minister of Sweden and was
recently attached to the staff of international
experts to be sent by the Carnegie Endowment
to leading colleges of the country to organize
clubs for the study of international affairs.
To become the gods of the present instead
Of the slaves of the past, they must resolutely
do away with nationalism, which is the imme
date cause of war, = says Schvan "Pacifcists
must proceed like modern criminologists who
try to remove the causes which produce crimi-
mails. They should concentrate their efforts
upon the destruction of nationalism by doing
away with entity of the state. This implies the
elimination of governmental action from the
field of international relationship. National
governments must become boards of admins
tration with no other allegiance on the part
Of the Inhabitants than that which they accord
to their municipalities. -
With due respect to this Swedish diplomat
we prefer the American viewpoint, admirably
summarized by President Wilson in his address
at the Associated Press luncheon in New York
few days ago. He pointed out there how
Americans might in all patriotism strive for
international peace. He visioned the state not
as an engine of war but an engine Of peace,
finding its highest usefulness in playing the
part Of a great arbiter of international diff
culties.
Pacifcism looks far toward the future. In
the meanwhile, nations must be prepared to re-
sist an aggressive war; Universal peace is
Somewhere near the millennium, yet it is worth
strivingfor

at Queens hospital.
Captain McDuffie, who visited a

trymen. The silver had dropped from

reprimanding All Chun, later met the

Before Min could DEFEND himself he

The enraged Chinese then turned up

wounds. They are expected to recover.

THE sJITNEY" AS A TRANSPORTATION
FACTOR.

The ssjitney' traffic in Honolulu is just be-
ginning but already it is becoming serious
factor in transportation. Before long this city
will undoubtedly be faced, as mainland cities
are. with the necessity for some sort of ade-
quate regulation.
It is particularly interesting to note that the
Oakland chamber of commerce recently found
the iitney problem so pressing that special
TRANSPORTATION committee was named to inyes-
t;oate and make recommendations. The com
mittee s report, summarized, is about as fol

DOMESTIC RELATIONS AND THE COURT.

Although the egislature-besought as it was
at the eleventh hour-failed to create court of
domestic relations for reducing the divorce evil
there is no reason why the existing tribunals
having divorce jurisdiction should not make an
effort to meet the need. - &
A late st. Louis paper tells about Judge of
that city who, acting for the moment as real
court of domestic relations, !" held a conference
with the libellant and libellee in divorce case
in prominent if not high life-the sued hus-
band being president Of a mercantile company
and worth, the wife alleged, $50 900 with the
result that the woman was induced to dismiss
her libel and the man his cross-libel. Accord
ing to the details furnished by the report the
case was a more difficult one out of which to
bring about reconciliation than scores of cases
which in Honolulu seems to have no possible
outcome but an absolute decree of divorce one
way or the other. ~.# -
If our circuit court judges had the time and
would exhaust all means of reconciliation be-
fore granting divorce, perhaps the need of a
court of domestic relations would never again
be apparent Judges are made out of lawyers
anyway, and if there is exceptional material for
any particular kind of Judge available it is
doubtful, with political influence prevailing, if
fitness would necessarily rule the choice.
