President OF the United States and
other representatives of high official

of sports-loying men and youths vino
are constant attendants.
IL is the one sport that brings 10

Another thing-the game is absos

The unsettled condition Of the game

TAE soLDIER.s VIEWPOINT.

Editor Honolulu Star-Bulletin.
Sir: Il is very gratifying, indeed, to
the enlisted men OF Oahu to learn that
there are influences at work seeking
to elevate the soldier to a position so
cially akin to the civilians, position
we by all means are entitled to. /
have been stationed here about Is
months and must say that there is en-
tirely too much prejudice against the
men that wear the uniform The opin-
ion exists among a great number of
people that the soldiers are mere
hoodlums and were forced in the army
because they were not capable of earn
ing livelihood in civilian life. Nat
urally, they think we are unfit to asso-
ciate with them. Such an opinion re-
flicts grave injustice upon us. The
sooner the people here learn the real
status of soldier, the sooner the
question what can Honolulu do for
the SOLDIER" will be solved and all

WASHINGTON DRY. !"

. p
The state of Washington went "dry" on
January l. The vote had been rather close
one in the preceding election; the large cities
turned in majorities against prohibition; many
of the big businessmen and influential papers
Of the state had opposed it. So that there is a
large element in Washington hoping that the
new law viii not work-that prohibition will
be discredited. --s- q.
Yet Immediately after the first of the year
the beneficial effects of enforced temperance
abstinence in many cases were apparent. All
over the state the number Of arrests have fallen
off; less charity subjects have had to be cared
for. There is actually less unemployment in
various sections which have made reports,
though large number of brewery workers,
saoonmen and others connected with the whole
sale and retail trade found themselves on Jan
nary out of jobs and businesses.
Prohibition is working in Washington. The
law will be violated, of course, for booze is a
habit-forning drug, and those deeply addicted
70 the habit will scheme and plot to get their
drug. And there win always be men willing to
trade the law when possible. 1t needs the pass
ing Of one generation to get large commun-
ity used to prohibition. But it is working al
ready, and it will continue to work part Of
the movement whichlin few years will put all

friction that now exists between the
men of the service and civilians be
erased
Mr. Editor. allow me to state that
the soldiers are not looking for any
places of amusement ors recreation,
The government provides us with suf-
f1cient modes of recreation. What we
want is chance to demonstrate our
fitness to associate with the civilians
OF Hon olulu on a basis of equality and
prove to those that are so unpatriotic
as to criticize us that we are men and
not hoodlums.
So, in conclusion. would say to the
people of Honolulu, forget about your
charitable places of amusement for the
soldiers. and instead use little COM
mon sense and judge US as men en-
gagged IN very patriotic vocation. and
after so judging us, 10 those of us who
measure up as true and decent men
kindly extend the same privileges you
would 70 the men who are engaged In
civil life And do not discriminate
against US because we wear the uni

STOLEN CAR. FOUND,

With both rear tenders and the run

by the police yesterday in Kuakini
street, alone and abandoned. The car
was stolen from in front of a store on

machine which was struck by Rapid

woman, had been cut in the face with
a piece of glass and he must find a
doctor for her.

idea his armor was so vulnerable to the shafts

AS to the point of his indignant reply, it is
rather hard to find in the murk of controversial
epithets but it seems to be that there is some
thing crooked to be exposed in the Metzger

THE PRESIDENTS TRIP.

(From the Minneapolis Journal)
1t is beginning to look as if the professor
could play politics with the colonel-and that
is going some. When even the president can
set eight thousand sane and husky Americans
cheering themselves hoarse by utterly repud-
iatng his own policies, he shows not only that
he has mighty convincing brand of oratory,
but that he doesn t need to go to Oyster Bay to
learn politics Yet that is exactly what the
president did at Des Moines.
The president has switched, and he has
shown that he is mighty clever switchman.
The Republicans and Progressives had come
out strong for preparedness. 1t seemed likely
to sweep the country. Whereupon Mr.. Wilson
not only mounted the bandwagon, but appro-
priated the brass Instruments.
He was on record as saying we didn t need
any more national defense Never mind little
thing like that He had been mistaken, and
frankly said so. He had learned something in
nearly year and half, and would be ashamed
if he had not.

They are not wanted anywhere in the United

officials are doing good job of smoking out

In the face of unusual conditions, this terri
tory has preserved internal harmony through
out the progress of the war. Men of diametric-
ally opposed sympathies have continued in per-
sonal respect and liking one for another. They
have realized that this is an integral part of
the United States and the United States is
striving to maintain neutrality.
Aside from infraction of the federal law, war
plots and war plotters, here would arouse a
local friction, suspicion and luminosity which
would be gravely harmful. Furthermore, the
probabilities are that any activities by foreign
agents would appear to involve entirely inno-
cent persons The Star Bulletin is convinced
that the great majority of warm sympathizers
here with either cause Allied or Teuton- are
just as much,opposed to such activities as the
American whose feeling is primarily neutral
and who rightfully resents the miscellaneous
