On the Pennsylvania front hard fighting continues in the mountain passes, but with the result in doubt, owing to the conflicting statements Of the Berlin, Petrograd and Bucharest Wa: Offices Petrograd says the Ru- manians have been forcced back in the Buzeu valley. Bucharest does not con- cede this, asserting that counter at tacks by the Teutonic allies here were repulsed at the point of the bayonet.

Seeking Publicity A qai1,

AR WILSON does we'll to renew his confer
AVA ences with the newspaper men in Washing
ton says The Nation. At the outset of his admin
istration he very cordial to them; the Wash
ngton correspondents, he assured them, were
to be his most valuable allies in ascertaining pub
lie opinion. By their opportunities for knowing
of home affairs, he would profit
For time things went smoothly. Then the cor
respondents began to suffer from the change that
transformed the Wilson who Governor of New
Jersey sat with open door accessible to every cit-
zen, into Wilson the most secluded and inaccessi-
Die President the capital had seen. Soon the
newspaper conferences became irregular; next,
one subject after another taboo, and not to be
touched upon by anybodys question. The Presi-
dent was plainly less and less at ease, and then
about year ago, the meetings ceased There
after, only occasionally did correspondent reach
the holy of holies.
Just how much will come of the new plan de
pends of course, on the Presidents attitude and
the extent to which he is disposed to be frank and
to take the newspaper men into his confidence
Enthusiastically meetings will however, be better
than none. The American people will never, in
the long run, approve of policy of secluson by
a high executive, either in a State in the nation

More Industries Needed

IT has been said that Cities are a necessary re-
L suit of good farming" which is true to this ex-
tent that cities dependent on the surrounding
country for subsistence and support. city can
not double its population, or treble it, without
equal and contemporaneous increase in the number
and size of the industries which it depends
If Honolulu were to remain the chief city of a
territory having only one big industry its growth
would be limited as that industry expanded, or de-
clined Fortunately for this city other industries
and interests than sugar are gaining foothoid in
Hawaii The phenomenal prosperity of Hawaii is
attracting many transients to Honolulu but unless
these succeed in establishing themselves in indie
pendent lines through their initiative and by
the employment of their own resources they can
not permanently remain here after the end of the
sugar boom.
Logically now is the time to expand and spread
out. New industries not usually started ex-
cept under the spur Of hard times but Hawaii need
not be bound down by the rules of usual practise
Our citizens have achieved an envable reputation
for striking out for themselves along new and I'M
trodden paths, and hence those who would see
Honolulu become a great city must help build up
the necessary supporting industries. A city can
not exist without good farming the kind of good
farming" that is synonymous with the production
Of many different crops
