blockaded, II ever We are, we will not
be as particular as 90 what we might
eat, or its variety, as we would that
we might satisfy hunger. To seek a
moderate variety of preservable foods
and the means Of preserving them are
problems that weeks ago were present
ed TO the College Of Hawaii for solu
ton.
"It is more than probable the naval
authorities may have some conception
as TO safe water transportation from
island to island. The problem has
been considered.

lack of a sufficiently broad market to
encourage farming. The planned ex,
pansion Of the U. s. Army and Navy
and leisure visiting class, promise ia
broaden your market. It is not i'm.
probable their expenditures will an.
nuany exceed the combined normal
value Of both sugar and pineapples
along ships side at our ports. Such

volume produced Of our two staples
but It would enable us to get our minds
to some degree of sugar and attend to
other interests and progress"

Continuing, he said:
Purchase Of Haleakala
During the recent session of congress
an act Was passed establishing the Ha,
wnii National Park and defining its
boundaries. It includes the summit of
Mauna Loa, the volcano Kilauea, Ger,
tain surrounding lands, and the crater
of Haleakala. The local government is
directed to secure the transfer in fee
simple Of these lands to the federal
government, after which that govern
ment will care for and administer
ther!.
" The United States will not contrib,
ute one dollar to purchasing the sites.
The reason is abvious. There would
be no t6d of national parks and drains
on tie national treasury at phenomenal
valuations should the government con
sent TO purchase sites.
~ am hoping, as the rim and crater
Of Haleakah control one of the most
wonderful sights in the world, the peo-
pie of Mani may benefit greatly.
Mani's Possibilities

roads that are u revelation of distinc-
tive scenery. I hope they may be devel.
oped and cared for so they may be safe
ond good without destroying the nat.

''Your island is not forgetting to
