The Engineer and Partizans

1t is quite natural that the question should be
asked whether the opposition to John Wilson for
city engineer is account of his being Democrat.
What the position of the supervisors may be, this
paper is not able to state though doubt that the
politics of Mr.. Wilson is the controlling factor
Mr.. Wilson is a road builder. He is not man
lager. The status of Mr. Wilson is not unlike that
Of the former engineer, Whitehouse. No one ques-
tons that Mr.. Whitehouse is a road builder he
was not a success as city engineer with broad ad-
ministrative and organizing responsibilities.
Some of our citizens are prompt to claim that
what want in the Office of city engineer is road
builder. There they stop. And there they indi-
cate that they are still in the small town class.
Honolulus city engineer, if he is to properly fill
the post, must be more than road builder. He
must have capacity for management and organiza-
ton, and finally he must possess the independence
Of character that will place him above the petty
squabbes of factional and partizan politics.
This paper does not understand that Mr.. Wilson
is ruled out Of the graduate engineer class. His
failure to graduate from the institution where he
gained his technical training has no adverse bear
ing his present qualifications assuming that his
inability to graduate not due to lack of mental
capacity when studying and solving engineering
problems
1t is obvious that some of our citizens including
today's correspondent who is clearly faetional
partizan, do not appreciate the magnitude of the
engineering enterprise that the city of Honolulu
has in prospect. They do not grasp the fact that
Honolulu is growing city that calls for men of
vision and recognized ability for handling large
projects.
Finally, all too many have yet to bring into the
working scheme Of their daily lives the spirit of the
presidents message to his fellow Americans en-
gagged in the great enterprise of the nation
'In it no man can win honor who thinks only
of himself"

Help to Save Bread

Mr. Hoover says, Every ounce Of waste we elm
nate In food is just much contribution to the
Iotnt cause as that of a man in the trenches"
This sentence from Mr. Hoover's appeal to the
nati0n for conservation of food contains thought
Tor everyone and applies especially to the wide
pread waste in bread because Of the false idea that
cneday or two-day-old bread is ''stale bread" No
greater delusion ever existed, for bread one, two
% even three days old-if properly kept-has just
- much food value, and is just as sweet wholesome
md satisfactory as the day it left the oven. Ath
Ietes and men in training for various severe ply
zeal tasks are invariably fed dayold bread. Per
sons suffering from digestive troubles and eonvale
cents are always given day-old bread in plain or
|oasted form. Physicians are unit in indorsing it.
"The Council Of National Defense calls on every
housewife to "do her bit' by eliminating the waste
II bread and wishes you to help conserve the ma
Ions food by ordering your daily bread supply one
Day in advance, policy which will aid the dealer
% avoid having bread left over on his hands at
light and result in conserving million. of bushels
d wheat for the nations armies and people.
Your support to this patriotic plan for food con-
rvation is earnestly requested, and by anticipat'
'rg your family bread requirements as described,
|Dn can give practical help without personal in
|onvenience to yourself. Your advance bread order
viii enable the dealer to order just what bread he re-
.uires for his trade the baker will know just how
uch to bake you will be sure of fresh bread every
'1y and have the satisfaction of knowing you are
Icing your bit" to help the government

TREAsONABLE AGITATORS.

Thirty-two alleged I. w. w. agitators are report
ed to have been driven out of New Mexico town
by posse of citizens. Similar action had some
weeks previously been taken by communities in
other Pacific states under the lead, or with the co
operation, Of police and fire officials. "The itera
ture captured in some of the raids of the lawless
bands" says the Sacramento Union. "shows that
the leaders Of this movement are deliberately tax
ing advantage of the crisis in the nation" Also
They seek to tear down the fabric of society," They
strike at the nations back at time when they be-
heve they can do the most damage.
These men are towards. They act only when they
are In q crowd and carry q campaign Of terrorism
when they think It Is safe. =
When, confronted With force more powerful than
their own, they realized that they facing the
violence which they had been preaching so ndustri
ously, these men sought the protection Of the law
they had sought to dscredit Now they talk bravely
of seeking redress in the courts

LETTERS
APPOINTMENT OF A CITY
ENGINEER

Editor Star-Bulletin,
Sir: 1 have read with much inter
est the comments, editorial and other
wise, that have appeared in the Star
Bulletin anent the appointment VI a
city engineer. That capable and eff
ficient man should be appointed-re-
CARELESS Of party affiliations, is q mat
ter that 1 think is self evident, and is
conceded by every honest-thinking cit
izen. But after reading all that the
daily press Of Honolulu has published
concerning the matter there still turks
in my mind a doubt as to whether
ability and efficiency are the only
prerequisites that the daily press and
the solid five supervisors require in
the man whom they desire appointed
to the position of city engineer.
On the face of the matter, 1t looks
to me as though a lot Of dust was
being kicked up in order to hide the
true issue. For example, the present
incumbent Of the office, and who is
about to resign, enumerates the quail
fications that his successor should
have. He says that it is essential

HILO, Aug. 13.-The list Of those
arrested as slackers continues to grow
until at noon today it had reached
thirty. OF course all these are not
bona fide slackers, many OF them being
up for investigation, and while they
they are simply there until all proof Of
their having registered can be had
by the police department
Sheriff Pua stated this morning that
his Jail is pretty well filled and that
it will soon be necessary to increase
the number OF guards in order to
handle the situation On being asked
where he expected to find the largest
number of the kind of game he and
his force are after, replied that North
and South Hilo would undoubtedly
give up the majority of cases.
So far, about ninety per cent Of
those charged as "slackers" are
Filipinos. Whether it is from an alb
solute defiance that this condition
exists, or a lack of knowledge Of the
laws, it is hard to say. However,
since it is generally known throughout
the Territory, that every national
guard contingency having a Filipino
company, has been remarkable in so
far as the little brown men have ex'
celled in their drills, it can hardly
be conceived that at the test, they
would be found lacking.
1t would, therefore, be more in keep
ing with a suitable generosity to
give them every advantage Of the
doubt until absolutely satisfied that
their intentions were built upon
other motives than a lack of actual
knowledge of what is to be expected
of them.
While many Filipinos coming to
these islands are educated and have
some conception of the meaning OF
our laws, the majority Of them are
from the dark interior where the
will of the mind was the only law
recognized, and that fact is suffi-
cient to make a sudden bringing into
light, and that a foreign light, too,
filled with all sorts of laws that we
ourselves are even puzzled to pro-
perly interpret, staggering to their
unframed mind. They are unac.
customed to the strange land and its
laws, and while there are no doubt
men among them who would wilful.
ly avoid going to the front, just as
there are among other nationalities,
there doesn't seem any particular
reason to believe that did they
understand the situation, the per
centage would be any greater among
them than it is likely to be. among
those Of a higher type Of civilization.
The system being followed b.
Sheriff Pua is to have the men ar
rested and taken to jail where they
await full investigation after
which, if they are found to be free
from suspicion, they are released.
IF work does not increase" said the
sheriff this morning, Il can handle
the matter myself in so far as my
department is concerned, but the mat
ter of searching through all the cards
of registration for those whom We
have under arrest, is job which is
causing the clerk no end of time and
trouble 1t is very much like hunting
needle in a haystack," concluded
the arm Of the law.

that effect Now the facts are that
the world is full Of men in the me-
chanical and engineering world, who
are capable and efficient, and yet

Is either capable or efficient, or that
he can build roads. God Almighty
gave some men less ability for road
making than he gave the tumble-bug,
and all the colleges in the world can't
supply what the Creator denied. The
real reason why the present incum-
bent-at least 80 1t appears to me
has given the public to understand
that the man appointed to the posi-
ton Of city engineer should be a
graduate engineer, is because John
Wilson, the man named for the po-
sition by the mayor is not graduate
engineer.
As to the statements made editor
tally In the daily press, no open at
tack has been made on the qualifica-
tons Of Wilson, yet the thought Is
continually conveyed to the public,
by innuendo, that Wilson Is not COM

from reading the daily press arrived
at the conclusion that Wilson was
not qualified, capable, competent
man for the position. That is, until
discussed the matter with certain
