The registration luncheon to be held tomorrow
noon should be the signal for Honolulu's greatest
assembly of businessmen, all men in fact who are
heart and soul, mind and body behind the boys call
ed to the colors under the registration law. This
Is an opportunity for to show by their presence
and their words if asked that they to be reckon
ed with the fighting forces that they are ready to
do their share to 60 to stay where they will be
Of the greatest value to their country.
Frequently the businessman wonders where he
comes in. He knows it is his duty to help and he
Is always ready to do his duty but he is anxious to
learn where and how to apply his energy.
President Wilson has answered this natural ques,
ton. His most recent call to the colors was spe-
cfcally ad dressed to the miners and the manufac-
turers, but it applies to all businessmen
The presidents statement opens with a reference
to the effort of the government to determine fair
prices for products. The purpose is to determine
them justly, "but justice" says the president, lis
easier to speak of than to arrive at" His idea of
lust price is "a price that will sustain the indus
tries concerned in high state Of efficiency, provide
living for those who conduct them, enable them
to pay good wages, and make possible the expan-
lions of their enterprises which will from time to
time become necessary as the stupendous undertak-
ings Of this great war develop. We could not wise
" or reasonably do less than pay such prices They
are necessary for the maintenance and development
Of industry; and the maintenance and development
Of industry necessary for the great task we have
ii hand"
profits" says the president, "are matters OF
business" but patriotism and profits ought never
ii the present circumstances to be mentioned to-
ether"
aPatriotism leaves profits out of the question. In
tbese days of our supreme trial. when we are send
Ihg hundreds of thousands Of our young men across
the seas to serve great cause, no true man who
.tays behind to work for them and sustain them by
his labor will ask himself what he is personally go
ne to make out of that labor No true patriot will
0ermit himself to take toll of their heroism in
money or seek to grow rich by the shedding of their
I|ood He will give as freely and with as unstnted

Ives will he not at least give his money"
Mr.. Wilson scores roundly the shipowners of the
United States and charges that "they are doing.

Pessimists, dyspeptics and other reactionaries
who believe that gloom is the basis of real enjoy
ment of life have lost of the strongest enemies

of gloom.
'Don't think about your health was the advice
he gave. Enjoyed yourself as much as possible.
Ignore dietary tables. Eat whenever you feel in,
clined. Learn by experience what suits you. Be
happy. Look on the bright side of things"
Perhaps not every person who follows Sir
Georges advice will live to enjoy eighty years.

SALEM. ore, Dec. 30.-Justice
Robert Eakin, of the oregon supreme
court, yesterday submitted his resig-
nation to Governor Withycombe and
the resignation was accepted. In
mediately the executive appointed
Wallace McCamant, attorney, of Port
land, TO fill the vacancy. II is under
stood the new justice will assume his
duties January 8, when the terms of
other justices who were re-electd al
the last general election again com
mence.
Justice Eakin has been in ill-health
for two years or more and for more
than a year he has participated in
none Of The work of the court. Under
the law he would have become Chief
Justice OF the court to succeed Justice
Moore with the changes in January.
The fact that he would become chief
justice at that time may have had
something to do with his handing in
his resignation although the resigna-
tion itself contained no explanation
as to the action taken.
Chief Justice Bears Resignation.
However, it is understood that there
has been some discussion among the
members of the tribunal as to wheth-
er the duties which are imposed by
law on chief justice could be waived,
and it has been the subject of some
discussion as to whether the court
would be compelled to ask Justice
Eakin to resign if he found himself
unable to perform the duties which
the law imposes. Chief Justice Moore
called on Justice Eakin at his home
today. A little later the resignation
was brought to the governors office
by the chief justice.
Governor Withycombe expressed
keen regret at the necessity of JUS
tice Eakin terminating his connection
with the court, and spoke warmly of
the efficient service he has rendered
as public official
Il have selected Mr.. McCamant
