PIONEERWORKER
FOR TELEPHONY
TELLSOF GROWTH
T. A. Watson, Who Assisted
Bell in Early Days Takes
Vacation Here
HOLDS FIRST TALK
AND LATER LONGEST
Visitor Finds 450o Mile Wire
Talk Easier Than Was
One of Two Miles

The man who made Alexander Ora
ham Bell, telephone inventor, famous,
is in Honolulu. He is Thomas
Augustus Watson and he came in the
Manoa Tuesday night to visit in the
islands for the first time. He expects
to remain about month and is stay
ing at the Pleasanton Hotel.
Watson was in charge of the mech
anical and technical end of Professor
Bells theoretical experiments and
heard the first message ever spoken
over a telephone. 1t was particularly
appropriate that about 40 years later,
Watson and Bell, who had the first
telephone conversation, should be the
two to talk from New York to San
Francisco a year ago last January.
Speaking of this remarkable long
distance conversation, Watson told in
lhe Star-BuIletin office this morning
that it was easier to hear the mes
sage over the 4500-mile space ira
yersed than it had been over the two
mile line 40 years ago. .-.
81 was in San Francisco, Mr.. Bell
was in New York City, and Theodore
N. Vail, the president, was on Jekyl
Island of the coast Of Georgia" !" said
Watson. "The three Of US heard eV
erything perfectly. Mr.. Vail cut In
and Mr.. Bell and l did the talking
The total distance was about 4500
miles, but we we're talking on dou
BILE circuit or 5000 miles of wires"
Watson's home is In Boston, where
he has attended only to his persona
affairs for the last few years, but fol
several years after his association
with Bell he was an extensive snip
builder and is we'll informed on the
subjects of ship subsidies and mer
chant marines. He is student of bo
tany and geology.
81 don't believe the laws OF Con
gress, whatever they may be, will evel
make great American merchant ma
rine," said Watson in talking OF ship
ping, "and about the only way tht
United States can ever become a
great Sower commercially will bt
when internal economic conditions arr
the same as those of the foreign ma
tions who are so successful with theil
shipping" .........v"
About II years ago Watson spen
most of his time in Washington, h
says, in an attempt to put the shiI
subsidy bill through Congress but !
fell by the way. Watson says he los
every cent he put into the shipping
business because that is one of tn
few ventures almost impossible unde

FEAR EPIDEMIC WILL -
RIVAL THAT OF 1907

NEW YORK, N. Y.-The spread or
infantile paralysis in Brooklyn has
caused the physicians of the Rookie
feller Institute to plan an extensive
study of the disease in the hope OF
discovering the germ which iB respon-
sible for it and the means by which
the germ Is spread. DR.. Simon Ffex-
ner informed Health Commissioner
Haven Emerson that he was deeply
interested in the subject and that his
associate, DR.. Amos, was already max
ing observations. ...
q DR.. Emerson said that he feared un-
less the means by which the nfee-
don spreads was discovered there
would be a serious epidemic, perhaps
az great as that of 1907, when 250O
cases were reported. -, :.
In the entire year OF 1915 there
were only 13 deaths from infant1ie
paralysis in Greater New York. In
dfcations are that the infection Ii
spreading in a southerly direction and
invading the Parkville section to the
east of Bay Ridge.
9"No one knows" said the health
commissioner, how the disease Is
transmitted. There may be infantile
paralysis carriers just as there are
typhoid carriers, > -,

IN the diseases transmission, we are

What Is a free port %

" WIldL Is d f. lIOC POiLs O.
Anyone who can answer this ques-
tion will confer favor upon the edu-
cational committee of the Ad Club,
which started considerable discussion
on this subject at the Ad Club lunch
con at the Alexander Young hotel to-
day.
A number of speakers were called
upon to tell of free ports, and til ugh
Hamburg, Hongkong and Copenhagen
were mentioned, not one Of the speak
ers sopke in favor of a free port for
Honolulu, or the benefits to be de-
rived from the same. s>.-.5#
Governor Lucius p. Pinkham, the
first speaker, told of Hongkong as
free port being the great distributing
center of China, and also told OF the
benefits ia free port to Copenhagen,
but he stated that he could not see
where Hawaii would benefit by hav-
ing free port in Honolulu.
Judge Sanford B. Dole said that the
question of a free port for Honolulu
had been brought up for the past 5O
years, but no one had come out tc
give any definite explanation OF
where the plan would be Of benefit
| to Hawaii. He stated that a free
pert district in some cities is a place
for the storage of raw materials. He
, ended his discussion by stating that
the constitution Of the United States
would have to be changed to make
Honolulu free port.
Edward l.. Tindall told of the free
port at Hongkong and said that 1t was
favored by mariners and ship-owners
as there was no charge made fol
goods, all snppiieA being free Of duty
with the exception Of opium.
Jared G. Smith told of a plan tc
| form a free port on ding Island
where raw materials could be receiv
ed free, and then manufactured fol
exporting to other countries. He sait
that inasmuch as Honolulu was no
a, center for distribution that he coulC
not see where free port would b'
of benefit ~
A. p. Taylor, who could not bell
attendance, wrote letter to the clul
which was read by President Wallace
r. Harrington. Mr.. Taylor said ther'
is a misconception regarding the fre'
port idea and in the limited sens'
meant by its supporters it deserves
