Consul Bopp figured very prominently IN

A stirring l9-minute talk was de-

Raymond of the territorial schools to
the night school students of the Y. M.

ing assembly last evening, on the
subject of the use of educational fa-

Mr.. Raymond surprised his hearers
by. saying that he advocated the fire.

in classroom instruction with partic.
ular reference to lessons on the iniqui-
ties of the alcohol habit The dan
gers of alcohol is one of the subjects
that all schools are requested by the
National Educational Association to
treat of in the regular curriculum, and
Mr.. Raymond stated that in his search
for proper textbooks on this subject
he could find none to equal the stories
that occur almost daily in the news
papers. And he continued along this
line by declaring that In his opinion
few people read newspaper stories so
as to get the best and the most of
the lessons contained therein. He
urged his hearers to develop a more
thorough reading habit, and especially
urged them to make more frequent
use of the public library.

cooperation. coordination, and loyalty

LOGIC OR GOOD FAITH AT FAULT.

1t is no palliation for Germany's conduct OF
her submarine campaign to say that the Ger
mans are driven to it by the British blockade.
The lengths TO which the British are carry
ing their blockade, in their interference with
neutral commerce, constitute international
lawlessness and are repugnant to america, but
do not justify Germany in killing neutrals and
non-combatants.
To all the patient protests of the United
States government the German reply has been
that her submarine campaign was made neces-
sary by British attempts to- starve Germany
out
Yet in the most notable official utterance
coming from the Central Powers in all this war,
chancellor Won Bethmann- Hollweg said two
weeks ago:
''The crop reports are unanimous in telling
that the winter crops are good. Not since many
years have the reports been as hopeful as they
are now The harvest Of 1915 was the worst
since many decades, nevertheless our stocks of
bread and corn will not only be sufficient, but
will leave a strong reserve with which TO enter
the new year.
Why, then, the renewal of the. submarine
campaign on March III Why the new order
that all armed merchantmen Of the Allies would
be treated as warships, to be sunk without
Warning or provision for the safety of nom
combatants or neutrals aboardi The chancel-
lor declares il impossible to starve Germany
ont He indicates that Germany has been car
fying reserves of food for months
Somewhere either logic or good faith is at
fault, just as either logic or good faith is at
fault when, after Berlin's repeated assurances,
the German submarines continue acts in con-
travention of international law and the rights

FINDS JAPANESE
ON BIG ISLAND
NOT STIRRED Up

Laborers on Hawaii do not appear
to take the interest in the controversy
ON the wage scale for plantation Ia
hor they do on Maui. The news
papers are making much of the situa-
tion, but the conditions on the Big
Island are entirely different from that
On Maui, and the average laborer pays
no attention to the wage question.
The Hawaii Shinpo says that a
prominent japanese, who has recently
returned from Hilo, reports that while
Japanese newspapers are very active
in their discussion of higher wages
for sugar plantation laborers, the Jap
anese workers on the plantation seem
to be more or less Indifferent to the
issue. This seeming indifference is
explained by the fact that on the isl
and of Hawaii the Japanese are en-
gagged as cane contractors
According to the theory of the Wis
itor to Hiio, these old cane contracts
stand in need of revision, for they
were entered into at time when the
price of sugar was at bedrock, where
as now prices have greatly advanced
and prosperity prevails. He main
tains that these contractors are not
realizing. the benefits or profits that
they should be enjoying under the
present conditions.
On the Big Island there are 10000
acres under cultivation by contractors,
between 80 and 80 per cent of these
being Japanese. This great area, of
course, represents a great deal when
it comes to a difference of profits un-
der present contracts and what would
be realized under agreements revised
to suit the times. 8
