DON'T BrY FoopsTUFFs EXCESSIVELY.

Martial law has not been declared anywhere in
Hawaii but il is none too early to plan systematic
handling OF foodstufs. Already there plenty of
Instances OF householders having rushed to the mar
ketssto lay in large supplies foreseeing an era OF
shortage and very high prices.
The StarBulletin is informed of one woman resi-
dent-a newcomer-whO ordered seven bags of -four
--far more than her small household could possibly
consume within a reasonable time. Her newness 10
climatic conditions here leaves her in ignorance that
the greater part Of her -four will spoil before it is
needed for home consumption. This is one of many
instances where excessively large stocks have been
laid in, as a matter of foresight
But this is foresight which in time of actual
shortage will place great burdens on the poor HAY
ing no surplus cash and virtually credit they are
unable to buy largely for future use. They will
lie the first TO feel the pinch.
Carried to the extreme, as this movement may
easily be- stocks of foodstufs viii be concentrated
in the hands of the weltodo and the wealthy. This
should not be allowed. Without blaming those now
buying and boarding, attention must be called to
the danger of a general boarding.
Dealing with this problem is no easy task. Since
neither martial. law nor military control is exer
cised here solution of the problem must be largely
individual and voluntary. Unless the individual
householders abstain from excessive buying either
the territory or the federal government inevitably
must take supervision Of future selling and if it is
found that huge stocks have been laid up by indiy
duals public authority will step in and compel such
stocks to be turned back into the market

twelve billion dollars Mr. Payne fayors the plan
OF fixing an interest rate for one loan at a good
figure and sticking to il, as Germany did, rather
than England's plan. For England's plan necessi-

Only One Hawaiian
Survivor Of Aztec

That Charles Nakalo is the only
one of the five or six Hawaiians on
the American steamer Aztec, recently
sunk by a German submarine, who
was saved is the report received by
Speaker H. l.. Holstein of the house
of Representatives in cablegrams from
Delegate Kuhio.
The first cablegram reads as fol-
lows:
Speaker Holstein,
Honolulu: <,
Charles Nakalo saved. Others be.
lieved persisted. State department will
inform fully later.
"KALANIANAOLE.",
Following is the second message:
Speaker Holstein,
Honolulu:
State department advises that
Charles Nakalo only survivor Hawaii
ans Aztec.
- "KALANIANAOLE."
Speaker Holstein does not know
Nakalo or what islaEd he is from.
Memorial Service Planned
Tentative arrangements for the hold
ing of a memorial service in honor
of the Hawaiian sailors killed in the
sinking of the Aztec were made this
morning by President Chillingworth of
the senate and Speaker Holstein of
the house.
1t was decided, subject to possible
later change, that the service should
be held one week from next Sunday
in front of the Capitol building. Ac-
cording to the plans talked over this
morning the school children of the
city would be invited in body and
would occupy the portion of the
grounds next to King street and the
library. The public in general would
be on the corresponding portion next
to Richards street.
A platform win be erected in front
of the building and two speakers, one
in English and one in Hawaiian, will
be chosen to make addresses appro-
pirate for the occasion. It is also
planned to have companies Of the
national guard present, at the cere-
mony.

Far-reaching questions regarding
