open readstead. Ill.,. . r. ~
From a tourist standpoint, one Of
his greatest shocks is to be directed
to disembark in the rain, or getting
down into an uncovered boat, which,
in my opinion, is often not seaworthy.
This whole procedure should be con-
demned and hope the civic bodies
will aid the harbor commissioners and
public utilities commission In their
effort to use the Kuhio wharf.
Matter vitality important. 49,
This continues the harbor board
chairman, is a matter of vital impor-
lance to our own people as well as
to tourists. If | am to be criticized for
my attempt to afford the public a
greater and better protection in tray-
cling it must be because the public
values its own lives less than ! do. "
Forbes says the harbor board as a
whole is absolutely satisfied with the
safety of Kuhio wharf, and will be
glad to meet, representatives of the
doubling steamship companies and try
! to convince them of the same.

STOPPING RED CROSS SUPPLIES FOR
GERMANY.

Much has been said and little done concerning the
hod-up of Red Cross supplies for Germany and Aus
tria contributed in the United States.
As matter of fact both sides are to blame for the
delay and in spite of the Teuton allegations the hold
up does not seem due to British hostile sentiment To
facilitate these shipments of Red Cross supplies, the
American Red Cross Society months ago prepared a
list of articles that ii would accept for shipment and
presented it simultaneously through the state depart
ment to various belhgerents.
Great Britain was the first to indorse the list and
recent statement from the Red Cross society says
that the British government agreed pass every item
in the list Germany agreed to the list after some
delay But latest reports say that neither France nor
Austria has Endorsed the list Some diplomatic tange
srose and Great Britain then declined to give
ances on behalf of the Allies that the shipments
would not be molested. Since the British cruisers
control the channels of commerce, there is no USE
sending the shipments without guarantee Of passage
Ex-President Taft chairman of the central commit
tee Of the Red Cross secured permits from the British
ambassador at Washington for the only shipment that
has gone to Germany this year.

Honolulu Suggested As a Free Port

Remarkable success OF the free port plan in Ham
burg Hongkong Copenhagen and other great ship
ping centers raises the question whether Honolulu
might not with great profit adopt this idea.
The suggestion is not a one but it has never
apparently, been seriously treated Nor has any seri
GUS study been made of the possibilities of Tree
port" Few people, in fact, appear TO know what
the free port idea is or how it could be applied II
Honolulu. -....
brief, free port is especially reserved
in a seaport city naturally around the waterfront
within the limits of which foreign goods may be land
ed or stored without payment OF customs duties
This special district is considered sort OF foreig
territory set apart from the local regulations Trad
ing and manufacturing establishments, be operat
ed therein So long as goods are not imported from
this special district into the country ITSELF they ar
exempt from duties.
Thus in Copenhagen, Hamburg, Singapore, etc
goods may be shipped from any part of the world int
the special free port area and then reshpped else
where without the necessity Of paying burdensorn
duties

makes the port center from which goods may b
shipped without an extra payment of customs duties
From free port district in Honolulu goods might

either of the Pacific continents to Australia thu

AS stated above the idea is not new here. 1t ha
De-
American cities apparently are just beginning to dis
tingliisl the free-port idea from some newfangleG
plan of state socialism, TO which, of course it has no
the slightest resemblance The first campaign for !;

six free ports in the United States to test the prac

Los Angeles. has recently offered an area Of 14t

ideal location for such port district but nhe North
west there is we-defned sentiment that if only on.

Capt. Robert Dollar practical businessman ane
one with experience in the free ports of the Orient
is quoted as favoring the idea. 1t is pointed out

ports the United States would be in position to safe

STUDENT WIN VOTE RIGHT
Judge Stevens Rules That Intent to
Remain Indefinitely in City
Establishes Residence.

Madison-In the student voting
cases, Judge E. Ray Stevens of circuit
court has decided that it is not neces-
sary that the voter should intend to
remain permanently in this city. He
holds that even an intent to return to
his home in another state at some fu-
ture time does not prevent him from
acquiring a residence here if he comes
with the intention of remaining for
an indefinite time as a place of pres
ent residence"
In substance, the decision of the
court means that if a student, or any
one else, comes here and establishes
his residence here for an indefinite
period, he has a right to vote here.
Judge Stevens held that Albert Ar
bahr, John Gross and Fred Siebold
university students, have a right to
vote here.
Randolph L. Wadsworth, also a stu
dent, is not a qualified voter, accord
/ ing to the decision. The court held
that he does not state any facts show.
ing an intention to remain in Madison
for any particular period of time. His
home is in Kentucky.

SWAT FLY LEAGUE
OPENS ITS SEASON
MANY COMMUNITIES JOIN IN EFF
FORT TO RID STATE or TY-
FHOID BEARERS.
GENERAL CLEAN UP URGED
Flies Are Given Credit for Destroying
More Human Lives Every Year
Than Are Killed In
Battle.

Madison - Wisconsin communities
are embarking on the greatest concert
ed fight on the typhoid fly in the
states history. This is evident from
reports coming to the state board of
health Never before has such great
activity against fly borne disease been
started so early in so many places in
this state. Many cities are already
enlisted in fly fighting campaigns.
Fly swatting alone will not eXtermi-
nate flies, the state health department
warns. OF first importance is a gen
eral cleaning up of the premises and
the removal of all breeding places.
Flies can best be eXterminated by
starving them out.
With warm weather nearly here,
| flies are awaking from their winter
lethargy. Once allowed to propagate,
millions of their descendants will soon
horde the premises, carrying disease
germs wherever they alight. The
house fly, with a capacity for carry
| ing 100000 bacteria at once, is cred
tied with destroying every year more
people than are killed in battle. It's
designation as the typhoid fly was Civ
en- by government scientists because
of its progress with disease germs

! dinner table.
