The ADVERTISERS SEMl.wEEKLY
After War Trade

n FTER the war Germany will have to content
"A itself with its own internal trade for certainly
one generation and perhaps longer because OF the
universal detestation the lawess acts of its mill
.ary rulers has created. Business depends on good
will and this truiSm is applicable to the CONNER
cial transactions of nation no less than to trade
between individuals.
Since August. 1914, military Germany has
Haunted every concept of friendship and square
dealing. Imagining Germany to already occupy
the supreme position in the worlds affairs which
the war-tnad rulers of that unfortunate country
assumed would be theirs, the prospective CUSTOM
ers of this nation of supermen' have had such
vision OF ruthlessness as had not been presented
for thousand years. He who would buy or sell
German wares has had ample warning during the
last three years that friendship, fair dealing and
honesty Of purpose are mere Scraps OF paper, /"
|of no consequence whatsoever in the upbuilding
OF mutually advantageous commercial intercourse.
No better exposition of the workings of the
Teutonic military conscience could have been de-
vised than Count Luxburg's note Of advice to his
government, "aS to Argentine steamers | recon-
mend either compelling them to turn back, or
sinking them without leaving any trace, and
yet Argentina had been, up to the time Secretary
Lansing made this intercepted note public, per-
haps the closest friend Germany had on this side
of the Atlantic. >.&|.E.
international friendships are the basis Of future
trade, and there can be gainsayng the fact that
friendship means nothing to the Hun The United
States previous to August, 1914, was Germany's
Fest customer. However, after this war ends in
the eternal destruction of the Cult of the Sword,
who will want goods made in Germany" Amer-
can trade will seek its outlet among its friends in
France, Italy, England, in those South American
lands which have joined their cause with ours, in
China and Japan. Germany has nothing to sell
that want. And as to her buying what we
have to offer, there will probably be no surplus
that our friends do not need for many Years to
come.

Some Real Action

p EAL action, looking for a real solution OF the
N fish price problem was taken yesterday by
the food commission. Congress is to be asked to
do away with the private fishing rights of Hawaii,
those old survivas Of the days Of absolute mon
arch, when the public had no rights There is
very good reason to believe that congress will
enact legislation to place fishermen here level
with fishermen everywhere else. and monopoly
will be npped at its very beginning.
In the meanwhile, investigation should be made
into the charge that the fish supply available for
sale at the market is systematically restricted in
order to maintain high average price 1t appears
to be within the power OF the commission to make
and enforce ruling that fish cargoes brought to
port should be placed on sale within twenty-fo four
ours and such a ruling should be made If the
fishing companies object it will be confession
OF all the charges. They can have no object in
opposing such ruling refusing to live up to it,
unless they are actually doing what is alleged
holding back the supply for the sake of kee ping
Up the price.

VICTIM OF AUTO
ACCIDENT IS DEAD
Ernest Lishman Passes Away As
Result Of Injuries Received;
Two Others Hurt

As the result of an automobile acct
dent which occurred early last Friday
morning on Kalakaua Avenue, and in
which three young men were injured,
Ernest NJ. J. Lishman died at Queen s
Hospital shortly after seven O'Clock
yesterday morning.
Lishman was unconscious when re-
ceived at the hospital and failed to
rally until his death, which was due to
conclusion of the brain.
Deceased, who was plasterer by
trade, leaves wife and two children.
He was twenty-six years old. For some
time recently he has been working
with his father, Thomas Lisbman, on
the enlargement of the Moana Hotel
The accident which resulted in Lish
man 3 death is said to have been caus
ed by the breaking of the gas throttle
on the machine, which made it i'm
possible to stop the car. When he saw
that smashup was inevitable, Lish
man, it is reported, jumped, striking his
head
The two other victims of the acct
dent, X. +. Holstein and George Rose
are suffering from a fractured left
shoulder and cut over the left eye

Itdly's Collapse

+ the reports from Berlin are to be believed
and 1t is significant that denials coming
from London or Rome--the Italian defeat is
crushing one practically putting Italy out Of the
war for months to come so far renewal of her
offensive is concerned. Just what has happened
has not been told. but the meagre dispatches in
dictate that the Austrians, reinforced with Ger
mans, have cut through the Italian lines and iso-
lated large section Of the Italian northern wing.
Otherwise tits incrediblethat the number OF pris-
oners taken could have reached the staggering
total OF hundred thousand men. -. ...~
How General Cadorna has been outmaneuvered
and how he allowed his troops to be so disposed
as to lose whole army and seven hundred guns
is yet TO be told. Only Russia has been dealt with
in that way heretofore, and that only through the
reachery of high commanders. ...+
The Italians have not shown themselves men to
surrender en- masse while fighting chance re-
NAMED They have fought bravely and we'll here
tofore carrying out their great offensive through
the most difficult country and in the face of what
were regarded as insuperable obstacles Ii is pos
sible almost probable. that the figures of prison
ers and guns taken as supplied by Berlin are
grossly exaggerated. But there can be no delu-
sion that Italy has not been beaten and that the
dream OF opening the way to Vienna has vanished
and the capture of Trieste made a remote posi-
bility. ''. D... -
Where has Germany secured the troops sufh-
cient to give backbone to the defeated Austrians?
Undoubtedly by stripping her Russian line, able
10 do so through the military collapse OF the Savs
and the riot Of talk that has replaced all action in
The Russian government. Germany, from every
appearance, has no further fear of Russia. The
recent abandonment OF the lines along the Dvina
front is contemptuous notification to the En-
tente that the Russian Bear cannot come back,
even when nothing more dangerous than its own
shadow confronts it,
The Central Powers must be defeated by Amer
lea, Britain and France. We can do it, and we
will do it, but-it will be only aftetr struggle that
will tax our offensive powers to the limit. Amer
lea must not only replace Russia lin the alliance
but also must now widen her share of the fighting
line to meet the consequences Of crippled Italy.
This only be done through the united eff
fortsaof the entire nation. We must prepare to
face a desperate, situation. We must save, we
must conserve, must give and we must stand
ready to sacrifice. Halfway measures today are
wholly useless Nothing short of winning can
save democracy and make certain the continual
ton of our own freedom and nothing short of
giving our all will make that ultimate victory in
any way sure.
Italys collapse should only make more firm
Americas determination to see it through to sue
cess.

Big Business Justified

POPULAR clarnor has bounded big business
j the last twenty years, but the same identical
big business" that supposed to be squeezing
the life-blood out of the American people is now
lending its every energy towards the successful
prosecution OF the The railroads have laid
aside competition and are working practically as
units in one great corporation. Empty cars and
surplus engines modified in those sections
where they most needed, irrespective OF
ership.
Over one hundred thousand are being used
as a mobile unit to move the tens Of millions Of
feet OF lumber required by the government from
southern logging camps to the Atlantic Seaboard ;
thence to Maine to handle the potato crop; to the
Southwest to transport great herds OF cattle from
drought stricken ranges to better feeding grounds
they are sent into the corn belt Of the Middle
west to help out the situation there; elsewhere
for coal, iron ore and copper.
For the first time in history the American peo-
ple are being given an object lesson in the bene-
fcence of what big business" is capable Of doing.
Viewed in this light the recent embargo Ha-
waiian freight need cause uneasineSs, for the
basiness affairs of the nation in the hands of
men big enough for the Job. Little business can

Must We Be Forced?

n TTENTlON Of local stand patters on the vice
"A question, who dcprccate the suggestion of
stirring up a nasty mess by attempting to make
the city comparatively clean, is called to a des-
patch from Camp Lewis, Ill this issue, wherein the
determination OF the commandment of that camp
not to allow any OF his to visit either Seattle
or Tacoma until those towns are made free of COM
mercal vice is expressed.
The stand taken by General Greene is in line
with the announced attitude of the war depart
ment and the navy department. The time has
come when civilian communities must make their
towns and cities safe for soldiers or the soldiers
will not be allowed to visit or patronize them.

brought up with quick turn and forced into de-
rency; Fl Paso lost hundreds Of thousands of dol
