JAPAN Will INTERPOSE NOBAR .
IOMARSHALL islanders return

Senior Gil said this morning he will
take up at once with the local Japan.
ese consul general, Rokuro Moroi, the
matter 4 OF securing transportation
from Honolulu to the Marshall group
for the sailors.
The islanders arrived here in April
on an Oceanic boat from San Fran
cisco a few days after war was de-
clared on Germany. They were al,
lowed to leave that city by the immi-
grafton authorities. and thought they
could live on the ex-German gas
schooner Hermes here until the war
was over, when they would return to
their South Sea homes. In San Fran
cisco they lived aboard the German
schooners Neptun and Atlas, on which
they had been sailors.
The Hermes was seized by the
government and the crew taken off.
The men have been making a living
here as best they could since that
time. Some of them have been EN-.
ployed as sailors by the InterIsland,
and one man is among the survivors
of the burned Hamakua.
The Marshall Islands were former.
" q German possession, but the Jap.
anese captured them early in the
European war, hence permission had
to be secured from Japan before the
sailors could be allowed to return
home. Although they served on Ger
man vessels they are now Japanese
not German, subjects.

LIQUOR BOARD
ACTS TODAY ON
LICENSEPLEAS
Commissioners Indicate They
will Not End Sales OF
Bottled Goods

The LIQUOR license commission
meets at $50 this afternoon to act
upon SO applications submitted
wednesday for renewals Of annual II,
censes to sell liquor in Honolulu ana
to hear 10 applicants requested TO ap-
near before it to show cause why
their licenses should not be revoked
or suspended for alleged violations OF
various regulations.
Although il is the general impress
sion that the days Of liquor selling IN
Honolulu are numbered, during the
war at least; members OF the commits
sion do not believe 1t Is within tnei
mower to cancel all licenses. While
reticent they gave the impression that
they did not contemplate any such
drastic action.
Whether the commissioners will
adopt any new regulations relative to
the sale of bottled goods to prevent
liquor from passing on to enlisted men
is another mooted question which
they decline to discuss beforehand. IL
was stated, however, that the elim1n.
alton of bottled goods sales would
automatically close bars in clubs as
the latter have no licenses, and would
also cut off what some OF the commits
sioners consider one Of the most legit-
innate uses of liquor, 1. e., in private
homes with meals.
Situation improves
The situation Ringing on booze on
the streets last night was reported
much improved and officials generally
believe stringent action towards mis-
creants furnishing soldiers with liquor
have had q salutary effect. Only one
soldier, ]. J. Rowan, Company K, 32d
Infantry, was arrested for having
booze In his possession. He was taken
at the corner Of King and River
streets by Policeman Abel Kia and
was in civilian clothes. He was car.
rying six bottles Of beer, 1t was
charged.
Explaining the general attitude OF
the commissioners on the present SIT
uation relative to canceling OF licenses
and also to the resumption OF the late
closing hour regulation Chairman
Richard A., Cooke said today:
Cookies statement -
The LIQUOR license commissioner
| are appointed under and derive their
| duIQOI1Iy lIOM WudJ - SOA4A1OAAJ
known as the Liquor Law This law
was enacted through the representa-
tives Of the people Of Hawaii and is
one of regulation and not Of prohibi
ton. Therefore, even II a majority
of the commissioners believed 1t to be
to. the best interests to the people OF
the city and county Of Honolulu to re-
fuse to renew all licenses, they would
be acting illegally II they adopted
such a course. In other. words they
cannot and do not consider them
! selves above the law. -
"The, board has authority to make
any regulations whatsoever, subject,
! however, to the limitations and direc.
tons of the Liquor Law. For this
reason even II It had seemed advis.
able to the board to continue the clos.
ing hours of saloons at p. m, they
would have exceeded their authority
in enacting such a regulation since
the law distinctly fixes the closing
hours Of saloons at 1880 p. m"

MAY GET AID

=
Acting Attorney General Arthur G..
Smith has Just rendered en- opinion
for the board If agriculture and for
estry to the effect that the board may
expend territorial funds for the feed
sng and care Of cattle guaranteed
and isolated because Of the existence
Of anthrax among them. The opinion
deals specifically with the 4. r.. Farm
cattle at MoiIiilL
$50 long as the cattle remain on
the land where the disease occurred, "
saws the opinion, there Is possibly
danger Of further contagion, and It Is
neither permissible nor possible for
Mr.. Farm to dispose either Of his cat.
tie or the milk therefrom. II these
cattle could be removed TO new To-
cation, am advised by DR.. Nofgaard
that q few days observation would
enable him 70 determine whether. he
could give them g. clean bill Of health
which would enable Mr.. Farm either
to continue In the dairy business or
70 dispose OF his cattle.
Il further understand that II appears
impossible for Mr.. Farm 10 secure the
lease of private land upon which to
keep this nerd in the absence Of q bill
Of health.
Ordinarily the proper procedure
would appear to be for the board TO
remove the cattle to the government
quarantine station this applies only
to cattle which are not diseased) for
observation and custody until the ter
ritorial veterinarian could issue the
required certificate, which cannot
be issued 50 long as the cattle remain
on the land where the disease has oe-
CURED. Since the quarantine station
is not sufficiently large for this pur-
pose believe proper alternative
would be the setting apart of q parcel
OF land for q quarantine station for the
purpose specified above. This, how
ever. will take time and hence the
board has been compelled to isolate
the cattle where they now are at the
Farm Dairy, q procedure which, In my
opinion, raises the same questions OF
law as would the removal 10 q public
post or quarantine station.
Smith then takes up the question
OF who shall pay for the care Of the
cattle, showing that the local statutes
apparently contemplate the govern
ment,s paying for reasonable care,
nursing. and support Of infected per-
sons inFoluntarily confined. for q
certain time az least. The question
ct ultimate payment need not be de-
cided at this time. he says, and adds
that the board has full authority to
make such expenditures as are neces-
sary for carrying out the purposes Of
the act.

That's How Detroit
Became the Foremost
and Famous MOtOrtOWn

You hear it over and over again
How in the world did Detroit happen to
become the headcenter of the automo-
bile industry. where more cars are
turned out than in all the rest of the
country"
Samuel l. Smith. the strong, unshoWy
citizen who rests from his labors AT the
ripe old age of 81, was large part Of
the answer.
At the threshold Of the century ne was
the first to test the gainful possibilities
Of 'horseless carriage" production on a
large scale.
How clearly he foresaw the commercial
future Of explosive propulsion applied TO
vehicles is written in the pre-eminence
Of this industry over all other manufac-
turing developments of the century. In
1915 the number Of cars produced was
approximately $4,000 with a valuation
of S600.000,000.
What was a vision to Samuel L. Smith
seventeen years ago has become a golden
verify so prodigious that the govern
ment seems to think it is good for S75,-
900, 600 for the war chest
1t is splendid heritage to leave one
