MAYOR FAVORS
BOTH PROPOSALS
RECENTLY MADE
Honolulu is Proper Place for
Peace Conference; IndorSeS
Preparedness Parade
Continued o.. page two,

Reading the Star-Bulletin's story of
yesterday on the suggestion of Daily
Financial America" that Honolulu be
the site of world-peace conference
after the war. Mayor Lane comment
ed:
Surely If there is any place in the
world especially suitable for a peace
conference it is Honolulu Far away
from the strife of the world, in a mild,
peaceful climate, with minds at ease,
the emissaries of the governments of
the world gathered here would quickly
come TO terms.
"Honolulu's accessible position, as
suggested in the Star Bulletin, is an
other argument for selecting it as a
site for the conference. am sure that
every effort win be made by the citi-
zens of this city to bring it here"
Relative to the proposed Prepared
ness Parade" Mayor Lane agrees
with the suggestion that Kalakaua
Day, November 16, is fitting time to
hold it. THE King was military
enthusiast" he declared. "A prepar-
edness parade would be an appropri-
ate celebration of his birthday. 1t
could pc held after the tribute to the
queen in the morning and before the
aquatic sports in the afternoon.
"Of course, the whole thing is up to
the army people. 1t should be left
n their hands. Once they breach the

CHARLES A. rice
QUITS POLITICS
AS CANDIDATE
Senator and Former National
Committeeman Makes
Announcement .... :.

Charles A. Rice, territorial senator
from Kauai, and in the race for dele
gate to Congress two years. ago, is out
of politics this season as an active
or receptive candidate. .&..- d..
He made this announcement today
in response to questions by the Star.
Bulletin, confirming reports given
much credence during the past few
months that for the first time in
many years he will be a candidate for
no office, = ..... .~-..-s
81 am retiring from politics for two
years." said the Kauai senator, who
came to Honolulu for brief business
trip. Il will not run either for the
delegateship or for senator again.
. Asked why he is not candidate,
after the Republican nomination for
delegate this year, nor does he seek
reelection as senator because If eject
ed TO the upper house of the legisla-
ture he would be tied up for four
year term He expects to be handling
much business during the next two
years and may be out Of the territory
a good deal.
John H. Coney, the veteran house
member from Kauai, is a candidate
for senator to take Rice's place and
he is said to be virtually sure of cleo
tion. He will probably have no oppo-
sition for the Republican nomination
and is likely to receive such a large
vote that he will be elected at the pri-
maries. .-...l
Rice was Republican national COM
mitteeman during the last term, being
succeeded by Robert W. Breckons.
With the definite announcement
that Rice is not a candidate for the
delegateship, it looks as If there will
be no opposition to the denomination
OF Prince KuhIo by the Republicans,
and so far no Democratic aspirant
has announced himself. L. L. Nc
Candless has given no definite state
ment of his intentions but Democratic
observers say they do not think he
will run. ID. :ss.>s. .,.:. =. .

RAILROAD IIE-UP
SEEMS UNLIKELY;
CABINET HOPEFUL
President and "0fficiaI Family
Meet and Canvass General
Outlook

~ {ASsocisted Press by Federal Wifeless)
WASHINGTON, ID. c., Aug. 22s
Prospects for a peaceful settlement
or temporary adjustment of the rail-
road strike crisis were brighter to-
day, and confidence in the outcome OF
negotiations was expressed following
a meeting of the president and his
cabinet.
While the railroad executives were
working on their counter-proposal to
the presidents plan for ayerting a
strike, the cabinet meeting was held.
Several leading administration Off
cials express confidence that the pres
ident's plan, which involves the tenn
porary acceptance by the railroad
men of the eight-hour day, would fin
ally be adopted. The railroad men so
far have insisted that the controversy
be submitted to arbitration.
There are no indications when the
railroad presidents will Ilave their
ccunter-proposal ready for submission.
Getting Away From Wilson.
Following the conferences held by
the railroad president, Blewitt Lee,
spokesman and chairman of the con-
ference, said that the trend of opinion
was away from the presidents plan.
1T is inconceivable," he declared,
"that the railroads should be called
upon to grant demands which would
mean the payment of $50.000,O00 addi-
tional wages to a preferred class of
their employees, and class that is in
the minority, and that the demands
should be granted under the threat
of a strike such as this, which would
paralyze the entire Industrial and
commercial activities of the nation.
Certainly it is impossible to conveive
that such action should be taken by
the railroads without appealing to
the last court in this country, public
opinion" .s+ .... II. "A
In continuing his statement Mr.
Lee intimated cat the lines are pre-
pared to take whatever course the
country desires, for we realize that
public opinion must decide this con-

SOLDIERS FATE
MAY Be IOLDBY
BOAT AT KAILUA
May Be One in Which Five Fort
Shafter Men Left on July
Is and Disappeared

A battered whaleboat awash on the
reef at Kailua, windward Oahu, since
yesterday noon, may reveal the fate
of the five enlisted men from Fort
Shafter who have been missing since
July Is.
On that date they took a 17-foot
whaleboat, equipped with auxiliary
engine and sail, from Puuiki. Waialua.
and were to bring 1t around Kaena
Point and into Pearl Harbor. Since
then no tidings have come from the
five men and an army board of in
quiry has reported them dead, the
findings being sent to Washington.
Yesterday a good-sized whaleboat
came from the sea to the Kailua reef,
an eighth of a mile from shore, and
telephone reports today said that the
craft was still on the coral barrier.
It is lying upside down on the reef
and so firmly wedged there that Ha-
waiians who went out in skiff could
not turn it over The boat appeared
to be entirely empty.
This morning two Honolulu men,
Charles F. Merrill and Superintendent
Alexander Pratt of the Rapid Transit.
went out in a skiff but could get no
closer to the boat than 100 feet, ow-
ing to the sea that was running.
. Telephone reports say that the out
side of the boat is a dark red, al
most approaching chocolate, and that
1t is a "double-ender" with air-tanks
on each side.
Over the telephone this afternoon
enlisted men OF Company G, Sd Bat
talon of Engineers, Fort Shafter, for
merly Company I, from which the lost
soldiers left, said the color of the boat
was cross between red and brown,
and that the craft had been newly
tarred inside. The description tallies
with that OF the boat which drove
on the reef at Kailua Monday.
They said the boat was about II
feet long, Of the ordinary rowboat
design, and fitted with a Wisconsin
ouLOoard motor of the Evinrude type,
fixed to the boat by means of clamps.
The boat belonged to the old organi-
zation, Company |, and was Engineer
Corps property Sgt-Mai. Frazier of
Company c left this afternoon on
motorcycle, after obtaining permis-
sion. to identify the craft, and see If
it is the one in which the soldiers
sailed away last month.

This deal, by which one large and
profitable Kauai sugar plantation
passes into the hands Of another, not
only 10 thes biggest transaction of
years in plantation ownership, but is
Of terrItory-wide Importance because
II heralds the settlement Of the entire
water rights, railroad and homestead
controversy which was an island sen
satIon few months ago.
Col. z. s. spaIdIng, head Of the
Spalding interests and a prominent
figure on Kauai for more than a gen.
Grafton, arrived In Honolulu on the
steamer Maui on Saturday. His son,
Rufus p. spaidlng, came from San
Francisco on the Sierra yesterday TO
join his father In discussion Of terms
with the Lihue directors.
Late yesterday r was learned thar
agreement on the deal had been
reached bot there remained q number
Of important details to be completed.
Inquiry a. the office Of the Lihue
agency, Il. HaekfeId q Co. brought
the response that the deal had not yet
been eompieted, but the indications
were that during the day most Of the
remaining points would be settled.
Rufus p. Spalding said over the
telephone this morning that he could
not at that time discuss the transac-
ton, intimating that several points
remained not agreed upon. How
ever, a Lihue stockholder familiar
with the developments is authority
for the statement that the deal is SO
far closed that it may be regarded as
a moral certainty.
Meeting In Governors Office
Eihue directors and officers and
Col. Spalding, as well as territorial
officials, met in the governors office
this morning to discuss government
water rates and distribution It was
denied that this meeting had any
thing to do with the Lihue-Makee
deal, but 1t is admitted that there is
q close relation between the two mat
tiers. rs the agreement with the gov.
ernment will depend somewhat upon
the relations between the two pIanta-
tons. If the sale is effected, the
question of water rights is expected
to be settled without difficulty.
