MARKETING WAR BONDS.

A number of New York banks have eyinced will

the public for the purpose of receiving subscriptions
10 bond issues of the United States government for
war purposes. No official estimate of the amount OF
such obligations which will be offered is available
at the present time but it is evident from the seri
onsness Of the task confronting this country that
the aggregate will easily run into billions
Hence it can be seen that the marketing of these
bonds will present no slight problem, especially in
view of the fact that the issues of the American gov

yield considerably below the return on the obliga-

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
WON'T DROP FIGHT TO
GET BILL FOR DEcENCY

"The abatement bill was defeated
by political trickery," said Raymond
G. Brown, secretary of the Chamber
Of Commerce, this morning in COM
menting on the action Of the house of
representatives yesterday when it vot.
ed to Indefinitely postpone action on
the bill.
THE defeat of the bill, however,
does not mean that the Chamber OF
Commerce will drop the matter"
Brown continued. The chamber had
definitely adopted the policy of never
dropping a matter which 1t has once
undertaken and supported and you
may be sure that we shall not in this
case. All such trickery as was prac.
tised yesterday by Lorrin Andrews
and his kind will ultimately spell their
defeat. The abatement bill was a pro-
gressive measure and whenever any
man stands out against progress his
elimination is in sight"
w. L. Stanley, chairman of the anti
vice committee of the Chamber OF
Commerce, which. was instrumental in
framing the bill, said this morning
that Andrews argument was full Of
holes, AS an example be pointed out

LYMAN- RAWLINS DEBATE
STIRS CAPITOL CROWDS

Voices raised in loud alteration at.
tracted the attention of legislators and
spectators around the capitol halls
this morning to a spot on the broad
lanai where Representative Norman
Lyman Of Hilo and Attorney w. T.
Rawlins were engaged in lively coz.
troversy.
1t appeared that Lyman accused
Rawlins of knocking" the formers
farm-loan bill before the senate com
mittee and thus aiding it to an untime'
ly parliamentary death. Rawlins de-
MED that he had been doing any
knocking and offered to call any man
a liar whom Lyman could bring to him
with the ayowal Of any such action
by the attorney.
A small crowd with whetted antici.
patton gathered In the doorways but
the incident passed and each of the
impromptu debaters went his way.

STILL TO BE SETTLED-AND SETTLED
RIGHT!

For the third time a territorial legislature has
killed the "abatementb Injunction bill. and the
profit takers Of vice are happy.
Oncc before Yesterday the bill was passed 10y tn"
senate and reached the house. to I've killed there by
indifference II was slain yesterday not by iudif-
ference but by political tricksters playing preju
dice
Though the bill has been indefinitely postponed
and its chance OF passing is almost certainly gone
really worth while Public discussion has been wide,
spread and enighening. \ large number Of hither-
TO Indifferent citizens have walked up to the import
ance of Strengthening the laws against commercial
lied vice. and TO the necessity for the application of
such strengthened laws in the community. A great
deal of popular hostility to the measure has been
dispelled. No longer it be said that the bar to
its passage is public apathy.
Those citizens who have given sincere and unSpar-
ing efforts during the past six months in bringing
the abatement junction plan to public attention
and urging its passage by the legislature have not
worked i'm vain. If the need for this law is as evil
dent during the next two years it is now. the
1919 Legislature will be asked to enact it, Perhaps
then there will not be the spectacle Of legislator

OF Representative Andrews speech against the
vice abatement bill yesterday it is sufficient to say
that he found it necessary to descend to such silly

used to steal land from poor Hawaiians. As an
appeal to prejudice, his speech was masterpiece
worthy of Lorrin Andrews

yesterday a large number of Mckinley high school
students, many of them young girls, filed into the
