IN PREPAREDNESS rHs AD
MlNlSTRATiON HAS FCl-
LOWED, NOT LED.

In the demand for reasonable
preparedness the Administra-
ton has followed, not led. Those
who demanded more adequate
forces were first described as
nervous and excited" Only
about q year and half ago we
were told that the question of
preparedness was not prAss-
ing one; that the country had
been misinformod. Later. under
the pressure OF other leader
ship. this attitude was changed.
The Administration. 1t was
said. had learned something"
and 1t made q be!ated demand
for an increased army. Even
then. the demand IVES not prose-
cuted consistently and the pres
sure cxerted on Congress with
respect to other Administrative
measures was notably absent.
we are told that the defects
revealed by the present mob!li-
zation are due to the system"
But 1t was precisely such plain
defects that under the constant
warnings OF recent years. with
the whole word intent on Mill
tsry concerns. should have been
studied and rectiflcd. The Ad-
ministretion ha, failed to dis
charge It's responsibilities. Ap-
pareEtly. 1t is now seeking to
nett political eXigeucies by its

PROMISE TO REDUCE THE

NOT KEPT.

Our opponents promised to
reduce the cost of living. This
they have failed to do; but they
did reduce the opportunities of
Masking living. Let us not for
get the conditions that existed
In this country undor the new
tariff prior to the outbreak OF
tho war. Production had de-
creased. business was langu!sh-
ing. new enterprises were not
undertaken. instead OF eIDan-
sion there was curtailment, and
our streets were filled with the
unemployed. What ground is
there for expecting better con-
ditions when the unhealthy
stimulus OF the war has spent
its force and our industries and
working-men are exposed to the.
competition of an enersized Eu-
rope?
II Is plain that we must have

PARK IN NUJANU
MAY Be DECLINED
49,
New Angle In Civic Federation's
Gift Of liIiuokaIani Gardens
Discovered

The city supervisors have discovered
an angle to the propOs"d acquisition OF
Liliuokalani Gardens By the municipal
ity, of which they apparently were
no aware until yesterday, and now al
leCst two members, C. N. Arnold anG
F. NJ. Hatch, express serious doubt
whether the park in Nuuanu vale,
should be taken over.
Their position is qualified by the pro
vision advanced by J. NJ. McChesney
speaking for the Civic Federation, who
saws that the city can have the parL
only on condition that it promise t.
spend practically $4,000 in permanent
improvements in the fve-acre tract
within the next year.
Arnold and Hatch asserted last even
ing that this put the proposed gift tC
the municipality in M entirely new
light. The fact of the matter is, a,
developed at last nights meeting, thai
the board was notified last March thai
certain amount would have to b,
spent by the city if it took over tn,
Iihu0kHlani Gardens. This letter t.
the board had been forgotten, however
until it was dug up and presented 10y

Arnold and Hatch said this new
phase of the matter altered their Opin
ion as to the aeceptability of the do
notion. They did not think the bOarC
could guarantee to expend $4,000 with
in the year on the park; it might spenC
small amounts from time to time in the
course Of the year but could not max,
a positive guaranty.
As stated, however, no action wa,

Transportation Men and Tourist
Agencies Fall Into Line With

for they are making arrangements for
publishing stories and articles copiously
illustrated dealing with Island topics
and subjects or devoted to teaching the
gospel of Hawaii to the people of the
mainland.
The National Geographical Magazine

katherine NJ. Yates, and a number of
the more important general publica-
tions are also planning to feature some
phase of Island life. The Volcano,
naturally, is attracting n great deal of
attention in both picture and print.
and much space is to be given to it in
the near future.
FRED j. Halton, mainland agent for
the promotion committee, has made his
report on the trip through the big
Eastern centers, and it shows an enor.
nous amount of work accomplished for
the Territory. Railroad and steamship
