THEY CALL HIM PRINCE
KILLARNEY

THE Washington correspondent Of
the Boston Post tells the follow
ing funny story of Hawaii:s dele
gate to congress:
Most of us think the Hawaiians go
through life humming droning music
with a ukulele and a necklace Of
of us are wrong
The delegate from Hawaii to the
United States congress wishes to an
nounce that Hawailans run fairly close
to the American type He is Prince
Kalanianaole, with royal blood run
ming through his veins, and though
the Broadway song writer's have
raised much mischief in disseminating
tho latest Hawaiian news, the prince
can state that his constituents are
just as insistent on receiving seeds,
pensions and agricultural bulletins as
the farmers down Maine. His consti-
tuency keeps him and his secretary as
busy as any single congressman.
The ukulele crop in the Hawaiian
Islands is pretty heavy, and so is the
gross output of musical comedy meiJ-
dies, but besides that they have more
tangible things to export, such as
sugar cane. 1t is more important to
Mr.. Hoover, too. that they're raising
them higher in Hawaii than that
they're wearing 'em higher.
Prince Kalanianaole is called Prince
Killarney by other members of con
gress. He looks out for Hawaiian in
Ierests in congress, keeps his constitu-
ents happy, and draws a congress-
mans pay-$7500 a year. But where
he has the edge on his fellows is in
getting his mileage allowance. Twenty
cents mile, from Honolulu to Wash.
ington, sends his fee soaring above
$4,000 session, and Of course he
doesn't spend much of it in fares
going back and forth.
The prince can do everything but
vote, for congressional franchise is
denied delegates. He can speak from
the floor Of congress on any matter,
however, or can sing Hawaiian song.
If he chooses, but "Yaaka Hull Hickey
Doola" has not yet been read into
the record. The Princes home is at
Waikiki, where all the people are sup.
posed to spend their days and nights
holding hands on the beach. He is
a regular fellow, but you'd almost ne
elect to identify him as a congress.
man because he doesn't have his neck
shaved.
The fellow who shoulders the duty
of keeping government seeds, pensions
and bulletins going to the Hawaiian
constituency is Jack Desha, shortstop
of the Harvard baseball team of six
years ago. Desha is a Hawaiian. He
doesn't think any more OF the Ameri-
can song writers than his royal boss.
