TWO ARRESTEDFOR
NEFAR|OUS CRIME
Local Chauffeur and Soldier Ac-
cused Of AssauIting limo
Il. cent Japanese Girl

o., A well.known local chauffeur and a
soldier participated in an affair on sat.
urday night which has got them into
very serious trouble. The chauffeur is
held at the police station and win
probably be charged today with rape.
The story told by the police is that
on Saturday night the chauffeur APP
preached the soldier who was in citi-
zen's clothes, and asked him II he
wanted to have a good time, adding
that IL he did he would, for eonsid.
Grafton, show him the way to Il.
The soldier was willing and jumping
into waiting ear, the two drove to
the house of an army sergeant who
lives with his wife and EMPLOYS 4 ia.
panese girl TO do house work.
The chauffeur is alleged to have told
the girl that he was detective. that
she was under arrest, and that Chief Of
Detectives McDuffie wanted her to ~
to the police station and furnish bail
in the amount Of $3.50. This story was
also, II is said, told to the employers of
the girl. =.
The girl entered the automobile with
the two men, but instead of being TAX.
en- TO the police station is said TO have
been driven to the Moanalua polo field
and there to have been assaulted by
both men. ..#
Meanwhile the sergeant is said to
have called up McDuffie and sought
particulars Of the offense with which
as servant was charged, only to be
told by the chief Of detectives that he
had sent no one to his house and knew
nothing at all about the matter. Later
the sergeant visited the police station.
McDuffie was given description OF
the two men and shortly before two
o clock Sunday morning the chauffeur
was arrested. ..Esr;
The man arrested has been driving
an automobile for a long time. Some
time ago he was heavily lined for some
offehse and his license suspended. He
is said to have been driving a car from
the Bethel Street auto.stand, on Sat.
urday night. =

tire the machine was in good running

Auto Club Peeved
Wallace r, Harrington, president of
the Honolulu Automobile Club, had the
following to say on the matter of auto
thefts yesterday: .'.@|..a
"Of course the Honolulu Automobile
Club is interested in this epidemic of
thieving that is going on. We have
been following the development of it
for some time and Mr.. r. B. Booth has
specialized on the subject. He is con.
WINGED of the inefiiciency of the police
and their methods. ~ .''I .
$50 far as independent action is con,
cerned, the suggestion has been made
of employing a private detective. This,
II done at all, should be by the msur,
ance agencies. Some time ago the pro.
posal was made in the club that we
start an insurance bureau for our mem
bers. The objection was made that we
would thus come in competition with
members of the club interested in the
insurance business, and the objection
prevailed. Therefore, it seems to me
that any steps toward private policing
of the city should be taken by the
agencies, which would, of course, have
the hearty support of the automobile
club and all owners.
'"The primary difficulty o I the whole
situation is found in the obvious inetfi-
cheney of the police department, which
lacks the initiative and discipline that
should be the distinguishing character
of police administration in growing
city. The police management has never
passed out of the small town class, ex-
cept in its consistent refusal to &C.
knowledge that IL has any faults
Archie W. Brown, manager Of th9 in.
suranoe department Of The >on Hamm
Young Company; and Clarsnne y. Wat
erman, also connected with that depart-
ment of that firm, called II the police
station yesterday afternoon and, in the
course of conversation with Deputy
sheriff Asch, expressed thn willingness
Of their firm to get together with the
police In an effort to bring the auto
thicvesto book. d. Hna, ..

DRY commission
No Change In Council
There will be no change in the or
ganizatiOn of the council itself, whose
membership Is drawn from the cabinet,
nor in the organization of its advisory
commission, made up Of industrial and
scientific representatives. -
The change in the organization is
expected to stili criticism of the old
purchasing system on the grounds
that manufacturers and producers as
members of committees have passed on
purchases from their own plants. I'm
der the new plan the war industries
board and its purchasing commission
will approve or disaPprove Of forms of
contracts. The industries committees
and subcommittee will continue to adj.
wise as to quantity production, but will
have no voice in the prices to be paid
for government supplies. Il D..
The war and navy departments will
delegate purchasing powers to their
representatives on the board who will
sign contracts. Under the law civilian
members of the board are not permitted
to sign contracts for these departments
and the new arrangement, while it ac,
tually gives purchasing powers to the
board, obviates the necessity for new
legislation. 49,
No Change In Law .l...a
There is no desire to change pres
ent Statutes, IL is said, because when
peace comes the intention is to elimi-
nate the board and go back to the old
sys.em OF making purchases.
No announcement was made con
corning allied buying, but plan is
under consideration which provides
for the coordination of allied and
American government purchases.
In naming one member of the board
as a priority commissioner, the defense
council recognizes that the question of
priority will play an important part in
production of war materials. The board
will decide not only which departments
shall be supplied first, but also will de,
eide between private users of material,
where one or both users is working on
government contracts. Sa.... ~,

Gompers of the advisory ,co commission,

Age Gazette. This is competition in
eliminating needless service instead of
adding to it,
The editorial continues: 1T is being
brought home to the mana gements of
the railroads through more channels
than one that their most important duty
during the war will be to conserve man
power and fuel to the utmost extent
practicable and to handle the greatest
amound OF freight practicable. The
elimination OF passenger service. which
IS not actually needed for the conven-
fence of the public is one of the most
effective means available for accomp-
fishing all these objects"
The Gazette estimates that up to the
present time the efforts to conserve fuel
and man power by the railroads has
resulted in the elimination of passen ger
trains which have effected a saving of
about 1s.50o.0OO passenger train miles
a year.
EInstead of criticising railways for
doing their patriotic duty the editorial
cautions the public. the public and
press would much better commend these
railway arrangements which in recog-
milton of the national emergency are

Ed PISTOL BUckLED AROUND
HIS BODY,

A negro man by the name Of Louis
Johnson claiming to come from
Hickman county, accidently killed
himself Wednesday on the farm Of
Mrs. Russell Estes on the William
sport pike nine miles from Columbia.
The negro it seems was building
some fence for Mrs. Estes, and only
few minutes before 1t was discov.
cred that the negro was dead, Miss
Hugh Ella Estes, had called to the
negro and given him some directions
about building the fence.
Shortly afterward it was discov-
cred that he was lying prone upon
the ground. An investigation proved
that he was bleeding and unconscious.
An examination of the negroes per-
son showed that he had revolver
buckled about his body in a scabbard
between his top and undershirt. 1t is
supposed that in some way the ham
mer with which he was mailing struck
the hammer of the revolver, and dis
charged the bullet into the groin
He never regained consciousness, but
died within a few minutes after he
was discovered.
