A LAW THAT SHOULD
BE CHANGED

There are those OF US who shud
der whenever We hear or read OF
legal execution, and still we realize
fully that mere Incarceration Is not
sufficient punishment for the crime
OF cold blooded, premeditated murder
There are men who have no horror
for a prison. especially since II has
become the common practice to toady
convicts, and contemplation of term
In prison has little or no deterrent
effect on them.
The last legislature Of this state
practically abolished capital punish
ment. Life Imprisonment is the
maximum punishment for the most
brutal premeditated murder, where
the elements OF rape, robbery, or ~
ing in wait are lacking. And as 1t is
a well known fact that pardoning
boards have been very liberal in deal
ing out pardons and paroles, the Grim
inally inclined have little to deter
them.
No one will contend that crime
should go unpublished, and all agree
that the degree of punishment should
be commensurate with the crime. II
is also generally agreed that punish
ment Is not for the purpose of wreak-
Ing vengeance, but to warn others
against commission of crime. 1t is a
notice that society will protect itself.
Many are opposed to capital pun
ishment, for 1t has frequently occur
red that the lives of innocent men
have been taken. Even judges hesitate
to pronounce the death penalty and it
Is difficult thing for governors IL
refuse executive clemency. All realize
that life once taken cannot be re-
stored.
A method OF punishment should
be enacted into law which would in
culcate fear in the mind of the muir
derously inclined, and at the same
time eliminate the sentence of death
to which so many are opposed. Va
sectomy has been frequently suggest
ed, but there is probably better wav
Let the person convicted of any
OF the more heinous murders, those
which generally constitute the first
degree, be declared legally dead
Distribute his property, il he has
any to his heirs; cut him off COM
pletely from all communication with
the world. even from newspapers, and
let him hear the voice of no human
being except those of others similarly
sentenced. Give him books only to
read and study. While he would thus
be dead to all intents and purposes,
he would still live, and If 1t should
later develop that he is innocent of
the crime of which he was convicted.
he could be legally restored to life
and liberty.
This idea is worthy of experiment
and our legislature would do well TO
enact such n law. at the same time
abolishing capital punishment. We be-
lieve that It would fill every purpose.
that 1t would be more humane. and
that juries would not so long hesitate
to find a verdict carrying the maxi
mum degree of punishment.

DAYLIGHT Saving
ISDISCUSSEDBY
AID CLUB MEETING
Sentiment is Largely in Favor
of Setting the Clock
Ahead

daylight Saving" was the topic OF
discussion today at the AID Club lunch.
Ed Towse and Jack Edwardson pre-
scented arguments in favor of the plan.
Mr.. Towse, who was the first speak
er, said that the daylight saving plan
had been presented by c. G. Bockus a
few years ago, and from that time had
grown from what looked like a vision
airy proposition to necessity. He
pointed out that there were a few
capitalists in Honolulu who we're op'
posed to giving an hour more Of day,
light, but said that with the exception
of a minority of the Chamber of Com
merce, the plan had been almost uni
versally adopted. He said that Presi'
dent Wilson, the senate and IL Euro
pean governments had already gone on
record as favoring the plan.
Mr.. Towse said that in time of war
more production was needed. And
that il the men would begin work an
hour earlier and finish an hour earlier
better results would be obtained in
manufacturing plants.
Accidents would be reduced about
40 to 60 per cent if the one hour of
darkness was eliminated. From an
economic standpoint Mr.. Towse point
ed out that million of dollars would
be saved in gas and, electricity.
Mr.. Edwardson argued that if the
men were allowed to quit work at 4
o'clock in the afternoon instead of
o'clock they could give one hour to
educational work, such as night
classes. AS a representative of the
local Labor Council, he said this body
was in favor of the plan, and this or
ganizaion represented IS per cent OF
the skilled labor Of Honolulu.
Elmer Schwarzburg said that if the
laborer was given work so he could
get away an hour earlier in the day
it would be a big boost for the real
estate men.
Raymond C. Brown, secretary of the
Chamber of Commerce, agreed with
Mr.. Edwardson that the laborers
should be heard. Mr.. Brown contend
ed that Congress had not yet adopted
the plan, but believed that something
should be done here.
John Effinger, who has been to the
mainland, called the attention of the
members to the fact that there were
about 100 school teachers in the city
at present, and maintained that they
were all good looking.
President Wallace r. harrington
called upon the worlds champions
and American champion swimmers tc
speak Miss Claire Galligan, Miss
Frances Cowells, Duke Kahanamoku
and Norman Ross said a few words
regarding the big swimming meet
which will Be held in September
Johnnie Noble entertained with a xylo
phone solo.
c. B. Gage reported that the Civic
Convention coiors had been changed
to red, white and blue. Harry Decker
told the members that the Ad Clut
show would be real hit from start
to finish, although he still lacks a
leading lady.

THREESOLDIERS
JAILED, CHARGED
With AUTO THEFT

Driving an automobile which had
been reported stolen from the Lellehua
store a short time previous, three SOL
diers were arrested by the police last
night shortly after midnight near ha-
lihi on their way into Honolulu. The
men were charged with the theft OF
an automobile this morning.
The men arrested were NJ. Ingram,
q. H. Hoffman, and ]. L. Evans. 1t
is not believed that they are involved
in any previous thefts.
The three men, it is said, took the
automobile, Ford delivery wagon,
from the Leilehua store last night with
the intention of driving it into Homo
lulu. The theft was discovered early,
however, and reported to the police,
who caught the men some time after
wards on the road.
: That these men have been involved
in the general theft Of machines of
the last two weeks, is not the belief
of Deputy Sheriff Asch. He said this
morning that he believed the men had
taken the car in view of saying what
it would cost them 20 ride in on the
train or a bus.
The police are still hunting for the
two men who escaped when Webb's
car was halted early Sunday morning.
Sam Goldino, now out on $3.50 bail, is
believed to be the man who was driv-
ing the car, and clues of who the
others might be are said to be in the
possession of the police.
Goldino will appear before the grand
iurv IN charge of "maliciOuS con-
version" of another persons property
on August 80. This crime calls for a
maximum penalty of years impri~
onment and $1,000 fine. Deputy Sher-
iff Asch said this morning that auto
mobile thieves had been charged with
larceny in previous cases, but so IN
successfully that it is not preferred
against them any longer.
