NATIONAL GOLF EVENTS
CANCELLED BY U. S. G. A.
Men Serving Country Could Not Com
pete-Local Events Not Affected.


Word has been received from Howard
Whitney, secretary Of the United States
Golf Association. that ali national cham
pionship events viii be declared on this
year, and that the present champions In
each class-both amateur and profess
sional-will hold their titles for another
year at least and possibly until the war
ls over.
DR.. Walter s. Harlan, chairman Of the
Greens committee Of the Columbia Coun-
try Club and vice president Of the u. S.
@. A., took this matter up with Secre-
tary Whitney recently and Just received
reply to his inquiry yesterday. The
national body wants to encourage golf
oil II can and believes that events OF
all kinds should be held with no prizes.
or possibly simple bronze medals, ana
that the net receipts should be turned
over to the American Red Cross or a
similar organization. II is understood
that In calling of the national champion
ships, the association feels that this is
the only thing II can do in view of the
fact that a number of the best players
In the country are members of the Ma
tional Guard and the Oficers' Reserve
Corps, and that II would be manifestly
unfair to hold title event in which they
would have no chance Of taking part,
because they are serving the country.
The calling of of the national events
will In no way affect local events un-
less those in charge feel that they should
follow the example set them by the gov
erning body by giving II their moral
support.

deal with the plague. Two and half
million francs have already been sub
scribed, and a program OF work has
been drawn up which will involve the
expenditure Of many millions more.
in 1915 a yearly credit was opened
by the government which assures
tuberculons soldiers certain amount
OF assistance during the war, and ut
present the administration has In
hand four million francs for this pur-
pose. There is also an arrangement
which allows tubereulous soldier to
have three months treatment in a

Hearing in Senate Committee
Brings Out Objections to
Convention Proposal ~

Opposition from Honolulu officials
to the territorial good roads bill intro
duced in the legislature by Senator H.
A. Baldwin of Maui developed to a
considerable extent yesterday after,
noon in, a public hearing on the meas.
uTe. 49, ..
This is the bill drafted for the most
part by L. A. Thurston and passed on
unanimously at the civic convention
in Hilo last autumn. Chairman A. L.
Castle of the judiciary committee
called yesterdays hearing. -.
Mr.. Thurston, in long speech, ex-
planned the measure and his purpose
in drafting it. -. Also he replied to at
lacks or questions fired at him from
Mayor Lane, Senator Desha, Super
visor Logan. Deputy Attorney Garden.
Supervisor Hollinger and Senator
Single. From the city officials espe-
cially opposition was evident either
to the general scheme or details of IT.
In beginning his address, Thurston
said that he has always been much in
terested in good roads for Hawaii. He
had introduced the bill which put a
volcano road in the Big Island and
backed the first macadam road in
Kona. :
"The questions We must answer
he asserted, ARE how can we get the
best roads for the least money and
how can we keep them when once
built?" - = 49, t....
Mr.. Thurston told of having ridden
over miles of beautiful highways in the
Eastern states few years ago and
of having then become imbued still
more with the idea that this territory
must have good roads. The bill which
is now in the legislature was built
largely upon the Massachusetts, law
as a foundation. -. ....s
The central thought to remember is
that some roads are purely local and
some are for the general public, he
said. 1t was on the latter kind that
most emphasis must be placed in road
study. 80 -. - - F.. -. B. e

HERRING FISHERS
AREREA HEROES
!. .LHy Associated Pressl

| PARIS, sFrance-The herring fisher.
men are counted high up among the
war heroes by the housewives Of
Paris. Drawing submarine menaces in
| the most dangerous zone, they have
caught enough herring this season TO
drive the smoked variety down from
IL cents to 2 cents pound; it en-.
Joys the distinction Of being the only
provision that has gone back to nor
NAL prices
The mysterious migration of the
herring brings 1t in immense shoals
from the North Sea into the English
Channel and along the coasts of Nor
mandy at the beginning of October
each year to disappear in February
somewhere off the mouth of the Seine.
In the meantime their feeding ground
is the same as that of the German
submarine
Precautions were taken to protect
the fishing fleet this year and its
work was unhindered and prolific.
Only once, at the beginning of the sea-
son, did submarine emerge in the
midst of the fleet 1t found it prudent
to plunge again without attacking.
The fleet was ordered to keep out
OF the North Sea this year, which
shortened the season three months out
of total Of. seven. yet the catch is
estimated at 10000 tons sas against
$4,000 tons in normal year.
The catch was so heavy as to dam
age the net frequently and in some
instances they were carried away. One

Senate bill SO, the much-diseussed
prohibition measure, Is safely en-
sconced in a filing can in the office
of the judiciary committee Of the
house of representatives, and is in no
immediate danger of being taken out,
pulled to pieces and possibly killed,
Thus declare mer'bers of the judi.
ciary committee vino add that, thus
far, they have not had an opportunity
to take the measure out Of its nest
for consideration. ::..".
There has been all kinds of talk
going around as 10 what the committee
should do with the BILL" says Chair.
man Lorrin Andrews.
He adds. contrary to reports, that
the committee has not considered any
purported proposition to propose a
substitute prohibition bill radically
different from the present one.
Are you in favor of a substitute
bill?" Andrews was asked.
Il haven't gone into it," he replied.
That is a matter for the committee
to pass upon"
AS reported a few days ago in the
Star Bulletin, Andrews questions the
legality of the present prohibition bill.
saying that, in ms opinion, the cart
is before the horse." In other words.
he does not believe the people can
be called on to vote for or. against a
measure that Las already been PASSED
by the Legislature, .. ~ -, +.
This is big question and Go not
believe this legislature was elected to
pass on it, said Andrews today. Put
] believe the people are entitled to
action if they can get it. and that they
should pass on this question"
Andrews is of the opinion that the
voters should he given an opportunity
to pass en- the question of whether or
not the Legislature should enact a
prohibition bill. ><~
He adds that . it probably will be
next week before the. committee gets
around to the prohibition bill.
