CUT DOWN DELIVERY PRICES.
(From DAILY. FINANCIAL AMER1cA).

From DAILY, FINANCIAL AMERICA.
Mr. William Sproule president of the Southern
Pacific Co. was recently in Baltimore. As a visitor
he was impressed by the spectacle of men and
women, with baskets on their arms, making their
purchases Of meat and vegetables in the markets
and stores of that city The majority of Baltimore
residents go to the markets and stores and buy
direct thus saving telephone and~deliyery service,
10 say nothing of the saving gained through, the
personal selection Of goods. The cause of the high
cost of livingis not in Mr. Sproules opinion, trans
poraton 1t is the habits of the people themselves
and the artificial needs they have created for them
selves and to which trade is merely responsive.
When We buy simple article in fancy package
we are eating less food and more package for the
same money. When we buy pound of tea that we
order by telephone, pay for the telephone and for
the automobile which delivers the goods. We are, in
other words, getting less for our money.
A minister, lamenting in the pulpit that some
people refuse to give TO the support of churches
the ground that they cannot afford it. read figures
which showed that the average person spends from
twenty to twenty four dollars for unnecessary ari-
ces and amusements today for every dollar that
he gives to the church Such an illustration would
have been unavailable a decade or two ago. Our per
sstent tendency to transform artificial needs into
actual necessities is undoubtedly the chief stmuIa-
ton for prices There will be effective relief for
the ghcostofliving problem until simplify our
tastes.

WAIKIKI RECLAMATION FURTHER
DELAYED.

( Governor Piukhams Waikiki reclamation scheme
put before the legislature in strong straightfor
ward message Yesterday, proves so large in cDncep
tion and so intricate in accomplishment that there
is no hope for an early beginning of the actual field
work.
The governor proposes Il territorial commission
Including the superintendent of public works. city
engineer, land commissioner territorial treasurer
attorney general. suitable representative of the
beach owners and representative of the landown-
ers to be selected by themselves" This commission.
under his proposal, is ito make the necessary sur
fveys plans and estimates, also TO secure TO the
tent possible. the necessary agreement with the land
owners Said commission should be instructed to
prepare and present a detailed report and eOmpre-
hensive scheme to the tenth Legislature, session Of
1919" sf~F* '.~. '--
Certainly landowners should find no fault with
such plan and they lucky that public authority
does not outright condemn the land for drainage
canals and roads account of the necessity for
claiming this Iowyng and periodically flooded
area. "
The salient point in the governors plan is that a
commission is to make a twoyear investigation of
Waikiki reclamation, which adds materially to the
10 or Is wears this reclamation scheme has been
agitated. >se-r"~' So =

Waikiki duck ponds v- ,- -s
The situation as now developed is the strongest
possible argument for the emergency appropriation
TO divert the waters Of the dirty stream flowing
the beach at the Outrigger Club and to divert into
temporary but adequate channels the food waters
which inundate this vast district and seep through
into the residence section below Kalakaua avenue.
The emergency project before the house finance
committee was materially changed from the original
proposal. 1t was first planned to divert the Aqua
kehau stream waters into the Makee Island chan
MEL bringing them out at Kapiolani Park. This has
been entirely given up now and Engineer Harvey
employed at the expense of pubicspirited citizens
has worked out plan for temporary channel that
will carry off the food waters below Fort De Russy
The new project will not interfere with the larger
scheme favored by the governor, and the obvious
fact that at least two years will eapse before
report is presented on the general Waikiki re
clamation plan makes it imperative that this legis
lature pass an appropriation for the stream diver
sion and handling of loed waters.

Supervisors Feel
They Are Ignored
By Legislature

The legislature came in for sharp
criticism by the board of supervisors
at a meeting Of the latter body Tues
day night, the members declaring that
on legislative matters pertaining to
the city and county government the
board was absolutely ignored by the
committees when they discussed them.
The subject was brought up ny Ben
Hollinger. who said that every mem
Der of the legislature seemed to think
he knew everything about city and
county government and refused to
take the advice of the people who
really did know. The committees
when taking up county measures
should invite members of the board to
be present as other people are invit-
ed, he thought. ..:@s.
Logan also said the various iegisla-
tive committees seemed to try to
avoid having members Of the county
government present at hearings. He
suggested that Supervisor Arnold have.
typewriter and present to the mem.
bers of the legislature his ideas on
the frontage tax law and road i'm
proyements in general which met the
approval of the other members.
Hardship on County Government
While on the subject of fae legisla-
ture, Hatch said the frontage tax law
should be simplified.
Representative Cooke is suggest
ing that now the county is getting an
extra one-third per cent taxes 1t
should pay one-third the cost of all
improvement districts" said Hatch.
This would work great hardship on
the county government and greatly
reduce the amount of work which
could be DONE" he said Hatch also
favored increasing the percentage of
property holders who could kill pro-
posed Improvement district to Is per
cent.
Arnold Makes Suggestions
Arnold then took up the discussion
and said the time between steps, to
get an improvement district under
way should be reduced. As an ex
ample he pointed to Kalakaua avenue,
which is now half finished, and the
bonds were only sold last week. Arm
old also favored a law whereby the
county could furnish the contractors
with crushed rock and surfacing from
its own plant in lieu of cash. He
wanted to know, too. why church,
schools, bark and federal property
should be exempt

WAR AND AMERICAN BUSINESS.

fBy HENRy CLEws, New York Bankerl
Suspend is ended and the United States has def.
iniiely entered the war on behalf Of democracy and
political freedom That is the issue which untes
an nations against the German. government; for as
has already been said il is not the German people
against whom we waging war, but its cruel sub
marine and militarstic methods. President Wilson,
however, patient he may have been in taking deci-
ve action has at last met the situation in bold and
PATRIOTIC fashion. His address to Congress will 20
down into history as one Of the strongest abest and
Ioftiest political documents on record, and will
rank with some Of Lincoln's most reyered addresses
on great occasions The whole country is earnestly
and enthusiastically behind the president and this
war will undoubtedly be pushed with unrelenting
vigor.
Ordinarily war means initiation, hut the evident
purpose Of current legislation and government ac-
ton will be to check this as far ais possible Indus
trials are not likely to be fasorably affected By pro-
posals 10 tax profits; are commodities likely to
soar indefinitely under repressve government regu
laion or the patriotic efforts of many large indus
trial concerns to sell at low prices to the govern
ment Inevitably both foreign and domestic buyers
will seek similar concessions High prices are al
ready checking consumption of many commodities
causing substitution for different articles or switch
ing over TO inferior grades and this tendency will be
accelerated in spots. War may cause sudden and
imperative demand for some articles though in the
long run consumption viii not be largely increased
For some articles the demand will positively
diminish Even in steel, which goes into munitions
more extensively than any other article, the increas
ed demand resulting from war will be but a moder.
ate fraction Of the total national output For pc
Rod considerable arrangement and activity must be
expected, while industry and trade are being mobi
