CONGRESS WILL BE ASKED ID INQUIRE
 INTO DAYLIGHT PLAN
Convention Discussing Cues ton of Changing Time of Clocks Wants National
 Investigation of Plan

New York January s1.-Congress will be asked to grant public hear ing on the plan to turn the clock for ward one hour during the summer months. under resolutions adopted by the National Daylight Saving conven- ticn at its closing session here to- day.
 By unanimous vote the convention organized a new body. the National Daylight Saving association, electing Marcus NJ. Marks, chairman of the convention and president of the nor- ough of Manhattan, as president
 The memorial to be sent to Congress urges that the Borland bill be enact is in the hands of the committee on foreign and interstate commerce
 Thousands of individuals and more than 100 Chambers of Commerce and Boards of Trade, together with the executive committee of the American Federation of Labor, have indorsed the plan, the resolutions point out
 Among the aims of the new na- tional association will be an educa- tional daylight saving campaign. State and city branches will be formed throughout the country
 
 also be accounted for by the greatly in creased exportation to Africt of American made liquors to take the place of the British brands which heretofore supplied that market. It is also claimed that European liquor companies which have been obliged to stop business because of the war have established branch houses for manufacturing liquors in this coun- try
 The large quantities of alcohol being used for the manufacture of munitions Is giving an impetus to the distilling busi- ness. In writing on this subject in the Michigan Review, Nathan Cole, formerly a speaker for the liquor interests, says:
 When these figures first came out, 1 wrote to the department for the facts and received a letter from the commits sioner of internal revenue which fully explains the increase. It will be recalled that we have been furnishing large quantities of ammunition to the allies. The total amount used for the denatur- ing for the year ending June 30 1915, was under 100000 gallons. while from the first day of July, 1915, to March B. 1s1s. more than sO,oOo,oOO proof gallons were denatured. Thus you seeSthat more than A000,000 gallons of increase is shown here. The total increase in with dra walls from March, 1915. to March, 1916 amounts to only little more than 3000,- 900 gallons. If you substract this from the A, GOO, GOO gallons of denatured alcohol you still have a reduction of fl, 900, GOO gallons to credit to individual consump- tion But this is not all For the year

EAT LESS MEAT
IF BACK HURTS
Take Glass of Salts to Flush
Kidneys if Bladder Bothers
You; Drink Lots of
Water

Eating meat regularly eventually
produces kidney trouble in some form
or other, says a well-known authority,
because the uric acid in meat excites
the kidneys, they become overworked;
get sluggish; clog up and cause all
sorts of distress, particularly back
ache and misery in the kidney region;
rheumatic twinges. severe headaches,
acid stomach, constipation. torpid
liver, sleeplessness, bladder and
urinary irritation.
The moment your bach hurts or
kidneys aren't acting right. or if blad-
der bCthers you, get about four ounces
of Jad Salts from any good pharmacy;
take a Tablespoonful in. a glass of
water before breakfast for few days
and your. kidneys will then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, COM
bined with lfthia, and has been used
for generations to flush clogged kid
neys and stimulate them to normal
activity; also to neutralize the acids
in the urine SO it no longer initiates,
thus ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone;
makes delightful effervescent lithia-
water drink which millions of men and
women take now and then to keep tue
kidneys and urinary organs clean, thus
avoiding serious kidney disease

WAILUkU, Maui, March 1.-The

making OF wine entirely. This de-

grape growers of Kaupakalua and has
caused Considerable perturbation.
AS a result, an effort is to be made
to have a bill passed by the fegisla-

grape growers to dispose of what wine
they make, at nominal license cost.
At the present time 500 gallons pc :

KOREAN WANTS
PICTURE BRIDE

Lee Bong 500 longs for a picture
bride. He also mourns, he says, for
$15G which was raised for him by
fellow laborers to pay the passage here
of the picture bride for whom his heart
yearns. He says he paid the money
for postal order and that he now has
neither money nor, postal order re-
ceipt nor picture bride
Lee Bong 500 is a Korean laborer
at Waipahu and according to his story
his friends raised $3.50 for him to send
to Korea to bring over a picture bride
He says that he took this money to
the postmaster at Waipahu on a GER
tain Sunday and asked for a money
order, that the money was given back
to him and he was told the applica-
ton was not properly made out and
that he was then told to go to a Japa-
nese storekeeper and have him get the
money order next day. The Japanese,
he asserts, paid the money but did
not get the money order, and he wants
either cash or paper from the post
office
On the other hand, John G. Lewis,
the postmaster, alleges that the kore-
an came to him on Sunday and want
ed the postal order receipt, that the
application was improperly made odt
and he told the applicant to have a
Japanese who was friend OF the 10
rean and could write to come in the
morning and make proper application.
The Japanese came, Lewis says, but
uo m uritn thn nriar
not issued and that late: he again
gave the money back to Loo Bong 500.
Here is the discrepancy between the
stories of the Korean and postmaster.
The Korean says he did not receive
the money a second time. And so it
is a question Of veracity between
them But the Korean has not his tic
ture bride and says he has not the
money raised for him. 1t is conceded
he has no receipt for the money. The
postal and federal authorities are in
vestigating the affair and the con-
fliCting testimony leaves It an open
question Of veracity.
Another angle to the situation IS
that 500 last summer is said to have
sent another $3.50 to a friend in 10
rea u bring him to Honolulu but that
the friend used the money instead u
go to continental United States and
500 has never heard from him since.
Postmaster evils was appointed
postmaster at Wailahu February L.,
1916. His successor was recently az
pointed by Washingtun but has not
yet taken office.

COAL GAS FOR AUTOMOBILES
Fuel Costs Only Twelve Cents for
Charge Equal In Power to One
Gallon of Gasoline.

Arthur ii. Jackson, an English me-
chanicai engineer, who arrived In New
York from London on his way to Hong
Kong, said that the high price of gaso-
line III England, where 1t sells ut $1.10
Il gallon, has caused motor power eX-
pcrts to experiment with compressed
coal gas for motor trucks and automo-
,iles. The point in its favor is that
the gas fuel costs only II cents for a
charge equal In power to gallon OF
gasoline.
1.-THE ministry Of munitions Mr..
Jackson said, "favors the coal gas
fuel, as its manufacture increases the
output of by-products needed for ex-
plosives. The Glasgow corporation
has ben advised by a special commits
sion that coal gas Is practicable for
commercial motor vehicles. Any en-
CINE can be fitted for its use In few
hours without interfering with the use
of gasoline, should any change be de-
sired. In closed cars and motor trucks
the gas is carried in containers on the
roofs, and in open cars II may be car
ried on canopies running the length
Of the body. Containers now in use
hold only 20 feet Of gas, which Is
about equal to gallon Of gas ne,
