Mr.. Hughes Predicament

If Charles E. Hughes, the Re-
publican candidate for President,
makes an issue Of the Federal
Reserve system, established by
the Democratic Administration,
is he going to read out of his
party the 80 Republicans who
voted for the measure in the
House?
Will he repudiate the 16 Pro-
gressives, the one Independent,
and the Republicans who voted
with the 248 Democrats in es-
tablishing the sound banking
and currency law which has been
approved by the public and the
banking world?
Will he also repudiate the Z
Republicans who voted for the
measure in the Senate?
Mr.. Hughes will have a diff
cult time evolving any issue that
will not entail a reputation of
many of the Congressional lead
ers of his own party.
If he thinks it eXpedient to
adopt a strong attitude on the
submarine controversy, which
President Wilson settled by OBJ
tanning a full recognition of
American rights under Internal
ional law and bringing about the
cessation of submarine warfare,
he will have to repudiate the 101
Republican Representatives who
voted against tabling the McLe-
more resolution and thus regis
tered themselves in favor of
surrender of American rights.
incidentally, he will have to
read out of the Republican party
the twelve Republican United
States Senators who voted
against tabling the Gore resolu-
ton, which involved a similar
surrender when President Will
son was forcing the recognition
of American rights.
There were IL Republicans in
the Senate who voted for the
Administrations Trade Commits
sion bill, and while there was no
record vote in the House, sever
al score Republicans voted for
the Trade Commission bill there.
The Republican party in its
platform has endorsed the tariff
commission method of handling
the tariff. Before that plank
was adopted by the Republican
party, the Democratic Admins

military or otherwise, was staged at
the Wailuku baseball park, Wailuku,
last Saturday, the 26th. There was an
enormous crowd on hand to witness
the various events that were run off.
Although the meet didn't actually
start until close upon 2 o'clock. the
16 and more events were finished
before 5 o'clock, thanks to efficient
officials.
The individual star of the meet was
Lieut. Alvin K. Robinson of Company
M. He scored all but one OF the points
credited to Company M and would
have won the cup for his company
had he not overlooked touching sec
ond base in the base-running contest
The two leading teams we're very
close and the winning or losing Of this
event meant winning or losing the
cup. Company d, stationed at Wailu-
ku, was finally awarded the cup pre-
.sented by the brigadier general.
Silva Stars in Sprints.
On the track Joe Silva of Company
d was the shining star. He won the
50-yard dash, repeated in the 220-yard
dash, but was Iiosed out of first place
in the 100-yard dash by L. Sterling of
Company H, the latter winning by a
scant few inches. This was the
closest race Of the day and hummer
from start to finish.
Sgt. L. Sterling of Company H was
the second highest individual point
gamer, getting points from here and
from there In both the field and track
events.
Although the track was very slow,
being laid out around the baseball
diamond, and it wasn't cinder track,
the races were very close and inter-
esting.

EAST MARCH q
Champion Swimmer viii Com
pete in New York, Chicago
and Other Cities

Duke Kahanamoku, worlds cham
pion swimmer, will leave Honolulu on
March 22 for the mainland where he
will compete against all Of the lead
ing swimmers of the country. He will
be accompanied by w. T. Rawlins,
chairman of the Hawaiian Swimming
Association.
3 Duke will take part in meets in st.
Louis, Chicago, New York and other
cities of the country. In Chicago
Duke will swim against many of the
Illinois Athlete Club stars. This club
has Raithel, who refused to meet
Duke; Harry Hebner, Perry McGilis
vray and Mike McDermott, and other
stars in and around Chicago will be
entered in the various events.
To Meet VoIlmer.
In New York Duke will be given an
opportunity to meet Herbert Vollmer,
the crack Columbia University swim
mer who has created a sensation in
eastern circles. In addition to Voll-
mer, the New York Athletic Club will
have number of star men in the
sprints, including Ramme, Wheatley,
Reilly, Cam and Nerich. All of these
natators have made the 100 yards well
under one minute, and these men
promise to furnish excellent competi,
ton.
M. Mott, Glen Brown and Vosburgfl
have been making a good showing in
the Middle West In the 440 yard and
$50 events Duke will meet. providing
he decides to enter these events.
Harry Hehner, Glenn Brown and Mike
McDermott. None of these Chicago
stars mas equalled Dukes marks in
the long distance events.
Only in Chicago and New York will
Duke meet stars capable Of giving him
a race, as it is doubtful IL st. Louis,
Pittsburg and Boston can furnish
swimmers who can make anywhere
near his time. On the return from
the East Duke may decide to enter
a meet in San Francisco and perhaps
Los Angeles.

geIes Court Officer to Fur
ther New Reform Work.

TO protect the young girls who come
to Los Angeles seeking positions with
the motion picture companies. and to
remove the source of immortality charges
against the entire motion picture pro-
fession. Judge Thomas p. White. OF the

Of the executive committee of the wom-
ans court. and Chief OF Police Claire
snively has appointed her as head OF
q special bureau to handle these motion
picture cases under the direction OF the
City Mothers Bureau.
The plan evolved by Judge White and
Miss King Is that the heads OF the en-
gaginR departments of all the studios
shall. when girl from out OF town
applies for a position. report her to the
bureau headed by Miss King. Miss
King and her assistants will at once in
vestigate the girls financial condition
and ind out II she has sufficient means
u support herself until she obtains per-
menent employment.
Los Angeles has become the Mecca for
runaway and stage-struck girls. Thou
Rands go there annually to seek employ
ment at the studios. The majority of
them arrive with but n few dollars, and
these girls. bv falling into evil ways,
nre the ones who have cast the cloud OF
immortality over the entire industry.
Judge White and Miss King have been
working on this plan trying to ind some
solution to the trouble for the past six
weeks. This will be the start of great
work to remove the cloud that has hung
over the theatrical profession for years.
