FUEL OIL, COAL
Will BE GIVEN
TO ALL VESSELS
Cable Instructions Include Al
Craft of Countries Allied
Against Huns

Hereafter, permission 10 take on
fuel coal and oil is TO be granted 10
all ships, whether belonging TO the
countries allied against Germany, or
those OF neutral countries. Such are
the instructions contained in cable.
gram directed to the Honolulu Gus
toms service which was received Fri.
day afternoon.
The treasury order is to freely
grant fuel oil and coal 10 all ships,
whether neutral or not. The order
came in response to a query as to
whether there would be any ruling
against the furnishing OF fuel oil to
the Manoa tomorrow.
A few weeks ago number OF Dutch
ships were held up in this port for
three. days while permission was Sc
cured from Washington to supply
them with bunker coal. Since then
special permission, with the specific
amount of coal desired, has had to be
secured by cable from the department
for all of the Dutch ships calling here
for bunkers.
Due to the necessity of securing a
license from Washington for the eX
porting of various commodities which
are now under the war export ban,
the work of the local customs force
is daily increasing. Additions and
deletions are made to the list almost
weekly.
That a license for the export of steel
and iron and many other articles must
be secured from Washington has not
yet been realized by some of the Ho
nolulu dealers In consequence they
are having shipments delayed here,
or are put to extra expense in cabling
to Washington for the required per-
mission. Dealers in scrap iron, tin
and steel are among those upon whom
the ban falls, as much of their ma
terial has been sent from here to
Japan.
The Honolulu Iron Works and Cat
ton & Neill, dealers in sugar mill ma
chinery who have an export trade to
the Orient, Antipodes and South Sea
islands, are two of the bigger firms
that frequently have to cable for ex
port licenses.
No ship destined for foreign port
on which there are articles under the
export ban will be granted a clearance
by the customs officials.

MATSONIA HAS
RECORD CARGO
Freight Tonnage Biggest Ever
Consigned to Honolulu
on One Vessel

What is declared to be the largest
cargo ever brought here by any Que
vessel will be discharged from the
Matsonia after her arrival in port On
Wednesday. The Matsonia has 9o39
tons of general cargo, the only item
mentioned by the last ships wireless
being 1868 bales of government nay
shipped to Honolulu for transsh'P
ment to Manila.
While some of the big sugar car
riers have capacity for several thou
sand more tons that the Matsonia is
bringing, it is said this is the biggest
single freight list ever consigned to
Honolulu. Her big cargo Is taken as
a reminder of the lessening nFnber
of bottoms now plying between Homo
lulu and San Francisco. Normally, O
portion of the freight coming in on
the Matsonia would have been shipped
on the Manoa, if she had not been
put in the Manila service.
The Matsonia has 1b5 cabin passen'
gers, 10 in the steerage AMI 243 bags
of mail.

DID NOT ASK FOR WAR

1t must be admitted, even by his
most violent critics, that President
Wilson did not seek to precipitate the
country in war. A few months ago
the very men who have now opposed
him were his critics because he did
not take more vigorous action in re-
senting the insults heaped upon the
country. Now after the president
had laid the whole matter before con-
gress, had made it plain he did not
ask for a declaration of war and that
he hoped to avoid war and when con-
gresa was overwhelmingly in favor of
granting him the power he sought, he
is denied power and the impression
goes out to the world that the Ameri-
can people are weaklings, will not
defend their rights given them by
international law. 1t is politics of
the brand long practiced by Albert
B. Cummins and his followers.

PREDICTS 1NTERNATIoNALIsM

The Rev. Il. r. Best, pastor of the
First Baptist church of Sioux Falls,
in an address before the students of
the University of South Dakota on
personality, in referring to the Euro
pean war said: "Out of this confa-
grafton a new conception of inter-
nationallsm must arise. Much of the
unreasoning prejudice of nationality
must be broken down. We will learn
to think of the solidarity of the race. :"
Reverend Best said that the influence
of the Christian religion indicates
the powerful personality of Jesus
Christ which has persisted 1000 years.
