EDITOR
ORGANIZING UNCLE SANS ECONOMIC
RESOURCES.

Frequently the question is asked, What Is
the most important lesson to the United States
from the war in Europe!'
An answer to this is contained in pamph-
let from the government printing office at
Washington entitled, "a Proper Military Pol
lev for the United States, /" to which reference
has been made in this paper several times since
the document was first issued. 1t is the report
of the War College Division made to Secretary
Garrison in response to a request for survey
of the military situation.
The War College experts say:
"Of all the features disclosed by the war in
Europe, none stands more clearly revealed than
the power derived from national economic or
ganization behind the armed forces of a nation.
Sin a war of gigantic proportions, the
chances of success are UNNECESSARILY lessened
by wastage, abuse and confusion. Steps should
be taken looking towards a national organiza-
ton of our economic and industrial resources
as well as our resources in fighting men.
A number of these steps are then outlined,
including the securing and storing of such ar
ticles as shoes, wagons. harness, rifles, medical
chests, and the handling of vast depots of sup
plies so that none shall be wasted and all used
before deterioration sets in
This same problem of economic organization
has suggested itself to several of the big bust
nessmen of the United States. Not long ago
the Star-Bulletin published an extremely il
Eliminating article by the president of the
Mitchell Wagon Company, recommending a
thorough mobilization" of the transportation
resources of the country, not to be carried out
in fact but in theory, to prepare for the carry
ing out in fact should the United States be
plunged into war.

NO NEED TO GET EXCITED ABOUT
M'CARN AGAIN.

If the department of justice is really propos-
ing to send to Hawaii an investigator to go
into the merits of jeff McCarn's charges against
his successor in the district attorneys office,
ATTORNEY general Gregory has taken the only
course likely to clear the atmosphere. While
little is known definitely and less has been pub
| lished concerning the nature of these charges,
lit is certain that they have been lodged with
the department of justice in very emphatic
manner, and in detail which can hardly be
Overlooked
District Attorney Vaughan recognizes, as he
said yesterday, that the fight is between
McCarn and himself. The Star Bulletin sees no
| likelihood that McCarn will come back to Ha-
waii as a federal office-holder, for his useful
ness here is manifestly at an end, and no one
knows it better than Attorney general Gregory.
There is no necessity whatever for this com
munity to get excited about Jeff McCarn.
Honolulu does not know what his charges are,
except in vague way that they relate to Mr..
Vaughan's personal conduct, and that is not
on trial by Honolulu. The attorney general
will go his own way about handling the situa-
ton and will doubtless handle it vigorously
and comprehensively Hawaii has every rea-
son 10 Ieel SdtlSHeu Will Tile mdHHeF III WHICH
he handled the reappointments of Chief Justice
Robertson and Circuit Judge Whitney. Mr..
Gregory is known to be very well-informed
concerning Hawaii, and whatever action he
takes is more than likely to be entirely com
lpetent.
He will do strict justice to Mr.. Vaughan and
/ to Mr.. McCarn, the Star Bulletin feels sure,
and in the absence of further information as
to the charges, the matter, SO far as the people
| of Hawaii is concerned, may safely be left in
the attorney generals hands.

the good old book. which emphatically
declares that Jesus Christ is the same
yesterday. today and forever. and
while il is true that we are living In
the twentieth century and have to
counterfeit the rapid introduction of
many things which are attracting our
young people. the only safe stand
for the church to take is to preach the
gospel of Jesus Christ, and We cannot
beat the devil by trying TO sanctify
that which is plainly on the surface
the devils business. All these things
link themselves with that which is
evil and | do not believe we should
take any different stand for the
church today than they did in the
days of Jesus Christ and the early
apostolic timeL
To try to turn the church into gen
eral amusement association will pull
the standard of the church down to
the level of worldliness and associa-
ton with evil will defile. Instead of
having our churches filled with spirit
ually minded people they will be filled
with carnality and worldliness, and
the spiritual interests of the church
will die.
What every preacher in the city and
in other places must do if he is going
to make progress is to represent the
Master, if he stands as Gods repre-
sentative, declaring to reveal the
mind of God from the Bible, and to
Introduce that which we cannot find
in the Bible on the pretext of Chris
tianity is not fair and honest IL we
are going to run general amusement
association We had better call it just
exactly what it is, and not try to give
people the impression that they are
sheltered under the church cover. The
dance is demoralizing whether it is
carried on in the church or any other
Place, and it will lead to bad habits
just take this opportunity to make
these few comments, which are per.
sonal and can be considered as such
by those who may read them.
Sincerely yours,
