ENCOURAGING NEWS FOR BUILDERS
HERE Who NEED iron AND STEEL

With regard to the effect on the
building industry in Honolulu as re
suit Of the classifications Of iron and
in Washington, C. B. Ripley of the
firm of Ripley & Davis, local archi'
tects, considers the situation at pres
ent most encouraging. Mr.. Rip
ley does not believe that it will make
any perceptible difference in the sup
ply of iron and steel that may be had
in Honolulu. Any shortage that may
be felt here of these materials, he
thinks, will be due more TO lack of
cargo space than to lack of iron and
steel on the mainland.
In support of his contention that the
demands for steel by the U. S. army,
the government for it's own uses, and
for the uses of our allies will not eX.
haust the supply, Mr.. Ripley quotes
w. T.. Smith, vice-president of the
George A. Fuller Company of New
York, the largest building firm in the
United States Mr.. Smith holds that
the government and its allies, while
having priority rights to all the struc-
IuI al 0ISSl III INC SOA1-
try, cannot begin to make use Of the
total output. ~"
In a letter written to the last issue
of Architecture" Mr.. Smith says:
Il spent two days in Washington
during the last week and, in conse-
Quence, have studied the situation
thoroughly and find that the Priority
board in Washington will have the
classification of all steel for the army,
the navy and our allies, and also the
classification of any work which may
have to be done in connection with

GET ICH.QUICK
SCHEME ENPOSED;
ARREST IS MADE

Sidelights on alleged high finance"
were revealed at police headquarters
last week, when George Wilson, said
To use the alias Of Van Bieckman, and
who claims he is a Hollander, was ar
rested by Detective A.. E. Carter and
booked for investigation. The arrest
occurred late Friday afternoon after a
Dutch steamer in port was ransacked
from stem to stern in an effort to find
closet and stoke hole had been
searched, the detectives started for
Wilson's hotel, rooming house on
King street, where he was located.
REPORTS on Wilson came to the de-
tective bureau Friday morning. One
man complained that Wilson had got
ten away from the Service saloon
with pair of gold eyeglasses valued
at SIS. Another man lost handbook.
Still another complained that he, too,
had lost his Spectaeles, and two chaRf-
feurs called on the police and showed
unpaid bills amounting to 50 and $40,
respectively, for auto hire. So the de.
tectives got busy, and learned, they
said later, that Wilson had entered
the Service saloon and asked the bar
tender if he might use the telephone.
He walked back into another room and
instead of telephoning, the police as
sert, he ransaeked several coats that
were hanging on the wall. Then he
disappeared. -. .:
The tip that he might be slowed
away aboard the Dutch steamer en-
route for the coast, came to the police
from a man who told them he had
heard Wilson declare that he was a
Hollander and that if the United
States and Holland went to war he
would be interned.
When Wilson was finally located at
his lodging house he was in company
with Bruno Richter, an alien enemy,
who had been working on plantation
at Kipahulu, where Wilson had been
employed for over a year. Richter
had left the plantation and when he
arrived in Honolulu, failed to report
at the marshals office. He was turn
ed over to Marshal Smiddy Saturday
morning, however.
Wilson, it is said, had been going
under the name Of Van Bieckman at
Kipahulu Confronted by his landlady,
.he opened the handbook he had stolen,
lit is charged, and showed it to her
with a flourish.
4 "Why worry" he said, Take
look"
: He ordered an auto and in company |
with Richter and two other compan-
ions, identity unknown, he went for a |
10Y ride, according to the police. The
chauffeur demanded cash, but with a
bored air Wilson pulled out a re-
ceipt book and attempted, the police
say, to pass it off as check. Again
his handbook convinced an unsuspect-
ing person, and Wilson got his ride.
. Wilson is said to have served a
term in the territorial prison, declare
the police, and to have deserted from
the revenue cutter Thetis which was
formerly in Hawaiian waters. |
