EDITOR
American Aid For Russia

That the United States is planning assistance for
Russia on great scale and over vide scope is the
hint coming from several sources. though no official
announcement of the details has been made.
A good deal Of fear has been expressed by Amer
leans that Russia would not welcome assistance
which meant sending engineers and mechanics to
The republic and that under present chaotic condi-
lions. such men might be met with antagonism
amounting to hostility. But il Russian paper is
to be believed, the opposite is true
The Commercial and Industrial Gazette of Petro-
grad published statement the other day which
now comes with peculiar significance. This Russian
paper said:
Russia in the near future will play the part of
buyer rather than of seller and therefore it is neces
sary that American commercial men should be well
acquainted with the demands of the Russian market
and with the conditions of buying and selling in
Russia In order to obtain this, the Americans
should organize an experienced staff of travelling
agents, with good knowledge of Russian. The
agents by coming into contact with Russians would
soon get to know the needs of the Russian market,
and would be able to suit American produce to
Russian needs 80 that they would be above all CON-
petition.
"The same method of carrying goods by means OF
agents should also be applied to products which
Russia is in a condition to export to America wool,
beet seeds, clover seeds, etc.
Parallel with this, it would be desirable to form
in Russia staff of trained mechanics and engineers,
who should undertake the management and develop
ment of railways in Russia.
There is no doubt that after the Russia will
have an extensive market for agricultural imple'
ments, which branch of trade has always been Of
great interest to Americans. Therefore it would be
to Americas advantage to have large staff of en-
lightened workmen in Russia, to which end, the
Americans would doubtless willingly throw open
the doors Of their industrial schools and workshops
to Russian workers On the other hand, Russian
institutions would also willingly take in all Amer
leans DESTROYS of learning the conditions of com
merce in Russia,
I'm such a manner there world be an exchange Of
practical workers which from an economic point of
view is the best way to insure success"

After hearing Mr.. Bishops speech

them to do so under any conditions

Isn't what we have on the islands
worth while? An increase of sugar
from few hundred tons yearly to the
100000 tons that Mr.. Bishop told
about?. The great fields of pineapples
that we have on the islands should be

THE WLLANuEVA CASE

Honolulu, T. H., Nov. 80, 1917.
Editor Honolulu Star-Bulletin.
Sir: After reading the statement
made by Sheriff Pua Of the county
| of Hawaii, published in your paper on
Nov. p, 1917, In the matter Of Jose
Villanueva, Filipino who is now in
Oahu prison, serving life imprison
ment for the murder Of Harriet ku
name, who was murdered in kohala
district some time during 1915. 1t is
stated that Sheriff Pua said Villa
nueva is the guilty party and Garcia's
confession Is not true. The writer
hereof, a Filipino, has resided within
the territory of Hawaii for about seven
years and considers Hawaii my per
nanent residence
Also have a deep interest in az
fairs pertaining to my countrymen in
this territory, and dislike the attitude
! that some citizens and government Of
ficials have toward local Filipinos
here. 1t Is my desire to see more har
mony than has existed in the past
and now exists. consider many OF
the things that have taken place, es
pecially in the manner or handling
Filipino cases.
For instance, Jose Villanueva is a
Filipino. He was tried before the
Third Circuit Court Of Kailua in De-
cember, 1915, on the charge Of murder
in the first degree, and was convicted
aud he was sentenced to be hung and
was brought to Honolulu in the early
part Of 1916 to be executed.
OF course before any man goes to
the gallows the governor of the terri
tory will have to sign the death war
rant with the recommendation Of the
attorney general, and after the attor'
ney general had examined the tran.
script Of Villanueva's case, reading
page by page and making a careful
investigation Of every angle Of the evil
dence of Villanueva's case the attor'
ney general did not believe that there
was enough evidence to send Villa
nueva to the gallows, SO the step he
took was the recommendation to the
governor to mitigate the sentence to
life imprisonment, and as the COVER.
nor, after considering the said recon.
nnendation, approved the same, then
Villanueva's life was to saved. Now
therefore by such Recommendation sot
the attorney general, and approved by
the governor of the territory shows
plainly and clearly that the verdict
rendered by the jury had lacked "a
sufficient and careful investigation and
contemplation of the evidence in the
case as was deserved. Jurors should
realize that IN order to bring such a
verdict the prosecution must show in
a plain and certain manner that ths
defendant had murdered a human
being with malice aforethought, and
without authority or Justification or
extenuation by law, ora murder com.
rnitted deliberately, preneditated NAL.
ice aforethought, Is the only crime
punishable with death. X -

Frank statements of opinion from those who
know what they talking about are generally well
come. Even disagreeable truths are often worth
listening to. But one. is constantly hearing the
most absurd ideas and opinions expressed by people
who have neither knowledge Of the facts nor wish
to learn them These generally pride themselves on
speaking their mind AS matter of fact, they
are speaking what passes for mind-a sort of
mushy mass which contains neither power of alb
sorbing knowledge nor power of analysis. You will
hear of.hand claims and statements which are ridi.
culously wrong; you will hear declarations which
only remotely border on actualities- the people
who make them are generally very proud of what
they consider their fearessness of speech The fact
10 they have mistaken fearlessness for looseness
frankness for mere shallowness.

done and when the enslaved people Of
Belgium, northern France and the Bal.
kans have been set free.
Germany's declaration that she is
fighting war of self defense against
deliberate aggression, the President
declared "wantonly false" and he re-
ening the existence of the independ-
encce of the peaceful enterprise OF
Germany.
OF those who speak of peace with.
out the overthrow of German military
autocracy, the President declared:
81 hear men debate peace who I'm.
derstand neither it's nature nor the
way in which we may attain it with
uplifted eyes and unbroken spirits
But ] know that none of these speaks
for the nation. They do not touch
the heart of anything. They may
safely be left to strut their uneasy
hour and be forgotten"
Declaring anew that the United
States has no war on Germany's skill
enterprises or commercial achieves
ments, the President declared that the
United States became Germany's enc
my only when she started out to dom
mate the world by force of arms
Stating again the war objects of the
United States and those which he be
lieved to be those of the allies, the
President declared:
81 believe that I speak for them
when ! say two things: First, that
this intolerable thing of which the
masters of Germany have shown us
the ugly face, this menace of combin-
ed intrigue and force which we now
see so clearly as the German power,
a thing without conscience or honor or
capacity for covenanted peace must be
crushed, and, if it be not utterly brot
to an end, at least shut out from the
friendly intercourses of the nations
The developments in Russia, the
President dismissed in a few words:
"The Russian people have been poi
soned by the very same dark false
hoods" he said, chat have kept the
German people in the dark and the
poison has been administered by the
very same hands. The only possible
antidote is the truth. It cannot be
uttered too plainly or too often"
Accompanying his recommendation
for a declaration of war on Austria
the President in no uncertain terms
told congress it must make adequate
provision to protect the nation against
the alien enemies. He declared it
should create a Every definite and par
ticular control" over all persons en-
tering or leaving the United States.
Violations of the proclamations COW
ering alien activity he declared, should
be punished by penitentiary sentences
for women as well as men.
Among recommendations for legis-
lation connected with the war the
President included more laws to con-
troll profteering. The law of supply
and demand, the President declared,
had been replaced by the claw of un.
restrained selfishness." To congress
itself the President made a plea for
economy in government expenditures.
This is one of the most remarkable
messages ever delivered before an
American congress. 1t has been trans
mitted to all of the countries with
