ness, be allowed to take the life blood
Of the nation through the channel of
trade" When will some of these
commissions do something besides

The situation that is developing in
this country is of a more threatening
nature than any like contingency in
Europe: Even SO long ago as last May
we find, by comparison, that in Eng

submarines, the bread that was sold
there was made from flour imported
from thu country, at half the cost Of
bread made from similar flour here.

SHIPPING BOARD COMPLAINT.

The settlement of the shipping board controversy
recalls the story of telegram sent to a relative
that a maiden aunt of sour disposition had died.
The relative responded with the query "What com
plaint?" The answer was: "No complaint every
body satisfied"
The shipping board episode has been unfortunate
in extreme.
The merits and dement's may occupy as much space
and unhappy comment as the Sampson Schley
squabble-after the war is over. For the present,
and let us hope for all time, it appears that the
president has done exactly the right thing. The
situation was intolerable. The nations business
could not wait. A clean sweep and that alone
could clear the wreckage and enable business to
proceed. Better the mistakes of action than to be
saddled with the cumulative errors of controversy
and delay.
Mr. Hurley named to succeed Mr.. Denman, has
only recently retired from public service chair
man of the Federal Trade Commission. The coun-
try can thank him for giving that commission in
dividuelity and character from the very start. 1t
therefore has good reason to believe that this next
venture will be success. he has the advantage of
business and administrative experience, and the
record of his shipping board predecessors is SOL
emn warning of the known dangers he and his asso-
ciates must avoid.

THE AMERICAN

Oh, U. s. A., our U. S. A., forever wilt
thou be,
Deserving Of the holy love thy chill
dren bear to thee.
Behold our arming for thy defense,
and eager for thy sake,
To fair where wars appalling blasts,
like tempests round US break.
Content with any sacrifice though
death be close at hand,
Because Of our devoted love for thee,
our mighty land.
Though perils compass you about,
though foes in legions rise,
We see the star Of U. s. A. shine
clearly in the skies.
And with the courage that 1t brings
our blood we'll shed for thee,
Each drop a gem that well may grace
the crown of liberty.
And while that star holds out to
shine, its light will not depart.
To leave in darkness and despair the
brave American heart.
Beneath our homely workmen's garb
our bosoms nobly thrill,
With all the lofty sentiments our
country can instill.
For ever have our eyes been turned
to every far frontier,
Where HAPPY an invading force might
venture to appear.
We are the men who made you great,
who nobly firm and true,
Will dare to do the mighty deeds we
dreamed that we might do.
And when the time Of peace has come,
and wondering children see,
The wounds the war-worn warriors
received for thee.
They, too, shall be inspired to deeds
upon the fields of war,
To match the glorious records that
their fathers made before.
Let all who see the colors pass with
heads uncovered stand,
And reverence these protectors OF
thee, our mighty land.
Oh, o. s. A., the sweetest name the
brave American speaks,
AS he patrols the shining shores or
watches from the peaks.
Their country is their life, their all, let
every woman's prayer,
Arise to God to bless them, and the
mighty arms they bear.
Oh Sun, which gilds our lovely land,
from shore to sea.washed shore,
Was ever more inspiring sight than
these our men of war.

THE NEED FOR BIG MEN.

Right in line with the thought expressed in these
columns, the Philadelphia Ledger from the latest
mail makes special point of the need in Washing
ton Of big men to handle the great work now before

status OF the secret service now handled in three
different directions by three different departments
This was well enough for times of peace, but vii

President Wilson has rightly dissociated himself

he cannot ignore, some responsibilities OF which ne

It's Practical Patriotism

Bringing politics into public business where the
and preparations for the concerned is
the work of mighty small men, \ in point is
that Of Of our territorial officials a major ID
the army reserve, who has recently been called to
active duty. His departure to enter his country S
service and his motives since he left the territory
have been the occasion for sneers and innuendO.
Personalities should not enter into such af~
fair 1t is purely matter Of service. Superinten-
dent Of Public Works Forbes has demonstrated his
patriotism He is surely entitled to have his posi-
ton held open for him while he is away the
tons business. 1t is an obligation that is recog
ni1ed by every employer Of labor in the country
whose employees answer the call to war and there
is no reason why the territory should not do like
wise.
Major Charles r. Forbes, now on active service
in the army Of the United States, has demonstrated
that he is prepared and ready to do his share If
all the people of the United States ready to
render their services to their country he has
been, there is strong likelihood that the United
States would now have its big army of trained SOL
ders in the trenches instead Of just setting about
the task of forming that army and giving it months
of preliminary training before it will be in a posi-
ton to take care of itself.

Sheriff Rose Put to the Test

Sheriff Rose as head Of the police force of the
city and county Of Honolulu is right smack up
against the test of whether he amounts to anything
or not.
Not alone are the men of the United States army
prohibited from using intoxicating liquors while in
uniform but each and every citizen Of the United
States any person indeed il prohibited from sell
ing or giving the soldiers liquor in any form.
This is a war measure to protect the health and
preserve the morale Of the engaged in the bust
ness of war.
Every man with a spark Of American loyalty in
his makeup knows that now, if never before his
plain duty is to support this law Officers OF this
city who fail to enforce the law derelict IN
their duty as the slackers and the towards who
run away from danger.
1t is Sheriff Roses particular job to so efficiently
police Honolulu that the bootlegger and the com
mon whisky soaked enemy Of the soldier shall be
run out Of business
This il Sheriff Roses share in this fight. He can
no more evade the issue than he check the steady
march of national progress
The sheriff will either control this situation or
he will be branded with the ignominy Of having
failed at time when his country called.
Furthermore this situation will not wait for fool
ish excuses The task is right here and now, and it
must be done
The period in which Sheriff Rose has an oppor'
ftunity to make good may be a matter Of days. 1t
may continue for weeks, but NJ further In that
time he as the official head Of the civilian police
force must show by results whether he is an agrees
sive, loyal and competent citizen and official or
chuce headed incident Of cheap politics with Meth
er ability to perform nor courage Of conviction to
endeayor to fulhll the responsibilities placed upon
him
Rose can talk buncombe to his fellow Hawaiians
all he peases, he cannot escape the fact that en-
forcement, strict enforcement Of the law relating
to the sale Of liquor to the men in uniform is the
duty he owes to his country. It must be done. 1t
national issue, The local authority will be
given its chance, and If it fails the law will be en-
forced by the federal authorities.
Once this responsibility and control passes from
the city officials Of Oahu to federal control, it will
never return. ...kg 81. e.. IL -
Under such circumstances, those who must bear
the responsibility for such transfer will be incom
petent police officers batting around under the al
legged direction Of an incompetent leader.
When nations life's at hazard they have no
time 10 think Of men, much less pinhead politics.
The march Of events is steadily forward. The
vine buns and the whisky peddlers Of Oahu have
rot to 90. II the sheriff Of this county has an
ounce Of sense he will wake up and demonstrate
bis capacity to understand his responsibility to his
country and his fellow citizens.
