Child Outlines
Policy as Aide
To Food Board
Declares Function to Effect
an Equitable Distribution OF
Food, Not to Fix Prices

J. F. Child, assistant executive Off
Ger OF the territorial food commission
and federal food commissioner for Ha'
wall. did not tell the Ad Club yester
day that the national food administra
ton has no right TO regulate prices
What he did say was that the admin
istration has TO authority TO regulate
retail prices charged for food. and
in making this statement he read from
an announcement sent out by the al
ministration itself.
In this connection the administra'
ton goes on to say:
We trust that whenever the say
ings made make it possible, there will
be a corresponding change in the
price made"
In a statement given the Star-Bul'
letin today regarding the regulation
of prices, Mr.. Child says:
Il do not see any necessity for set
ting a maximum or minimum price on
sugar in this territory. These restrict
ed prices are made where there is
lack of a sufficient supply Of sugar
for all. where the demand is greater
than the supply and where the prices
are boosted up by speculation.
The sugar supply in Hawaii is as
good now as it has ever been, and
there is no danger Of anyone boarding
it. It may yet prove to be the cheap
est food we have here; perhaps all
the food we will have here If they
take the steamers off.
THE fact that the government has
required the licensing of certain dis
tributors of and dealers in food does
not necessarily mean that prices are
to be regulated or controlled. in my
opinion, it is to effect an equitable
distribution of food, so that the admin
istration at all times will know just
where all food is"
Mr. Child is unable to say now
whether he will be called upon to fix
the price of sugar or any other COM
modify here. Before any legal action
could be taken in this respect, he says,
a statement Of the facts would have
to be submitted to legal advisors OF
the food administration for its final
approval and passage.
"The national food administration is
not fixing prices anywhere excepA by
agreement" Mr.. Child continues.
Legal cou- sci for Mr.. Child, as fed
eral food administrator for Hawaii,
probably will be U. S. Attorney S. c..
Huber, as it is the announced desire of
the government to keep all matters
within the machinery of the govern
ment. ">z L. ....

PURP0RTED CONFESSION
BY HART ADMITTED
Continued from page ~

Attorney William B. Lymer, counsel
for Hart, objected to the reading of
the purported confession on the
ground tina. the corpus deficit had
not been proved. The court overruled
the motion. ~
Mr.. Bierbach testified today that he
bad never given Hart permission to
sell certain stock which he had pur-
chased through the local agency of
the Stoneham company. He said that
Hart informed him there was chance
that the stock would go to 20 cents a
share, "but never told him to sell"
seid Mr.. Bierbach. .~
IF he had sold the stock at 20
cents, it would have been in disobe-
dience of your orders?" asked Attor-
ney Lymer. ......
Yes. answered Mr.. Bierbach. But
the chances are would not have
kicked" he added.
And did it go up to 90 cents?"
Yes. 1t went up to So cents"
At the settlement, Mr.. Bierbach
said, he received 10000 shares instead

HAWAII MUST bow
To NEEDS OF U. S.
DECLARES CHILD
Doesn't. Think Steamers Win Be
Taken Off But if They Are
Food Consumption Here Will
Be REGULATED

| If steamers plying between Honolu
lu and San Francisco are diverted &C
the Atlantic for war purposes, 1t will
be necessary to regulate the consump'
ton Of food in the territory of Hawaii
This is the declaration of J. F.
Child, assistant executive officer II
the territorial food commission. who
yesterday was appointed by the presi.
dent upon the nominal ton of Governor
P1nkham, as federal food commission
er for Hawaii
The safety OF the islands," says Mr.
Child, in obtaining foreign food pro-
Ducts lies in the fact that we nave
$70,000,000 worth of food to export
every year. which is needed on the
mainland. and We have TO import Ully
about $S,o00,000 worth of food.
In other words, the ships taking
our sugar away will probably be aple
to bring food back to the islands. If
1t were not for the sugar we have, !
believe that the islands would be cut
off and told to take care of them
selves.
If our ships are needed on the At
iantie side II would not be a patriotic
act OF the people of Hawaii to try to
Keep them on this run. The needs OF
the islands should be made secondary
10 the needs Of the nation. The terri
torial food commission, through it's
county agents, has been trying to i'm
press upon the people of these islands
the necessity OF learning how to grow
sufficient produce to support them
serves. The Woman's committee, work.
ing in Honolulu and on the other is.
lands, has been trying to impress on
all classes of people the necessity of
food conservation and the reduction
OF the consumption OF imported foods.
Their efforts have been quite sue
cessful among some people, but still
there are many others who do not yet
realize the seriousness of the situa.
tion..
My advice to every housewife and
housekeeper is to investigate the sup
ply OF local grown foodstuffs to asceT-
tain what they are, where they can be
obtained and determine the ways of
preparing them for the table, SO that
II the worst comes to the worst. they
VIII KNOW how to feed their families
on local grown foodstuffs. ........ I
Complaints have been made 10 me
that the merchants are trying to make
more money on island fruits and yege.
tables than on imported commodities.
believe this is true to a certain ex-
tent on some items. "-.~
ut might be explained by the fact
that sales of island grown produce
are small as compared with the sales
OF imports, and the losses from decay
and spoilage are greater, due ta the
lack OF demand. ..-..>....
If there was a steady demand, for
island produce, the merchant would
be able to handle it in greater quanti-
ties and without any great loss from
spoilage. Then the consumer would
not be forced to pay for what thu me-
chant now throws away" w.. j. -

new Agent Of
PACIFIC MAIL
REACHESCITY

Stanley W, Good, the new agent for
the Pacific Mail Steamship company,
arrived yesterday on the Maui, and IS
busy today going over the affairs of
the agency with Mr. Klebahn, OF
Hackfeld company He has not yet
decided where the agency office wifi
be located, after II is removed from
Hackfeld's, which will be November
]. Honolulu Is the last Of the Pacific
Mail agencies TO be taken over, the
company nov having its own special
agents In all its branch offices.
Mr.. Good does net anticipate the
taking off of any OF the steamers OF
the Pacific Mail before next summer.
nor does he believe there will be any
shortage OF ships between Honolulu
and San Francisco because of the pos
sibility of the government taking
over the shipping. He thinks that If
any OF the present vessels are re-
moved they would be replaced by
others. lie says people in. San Fran
cisco want to come to Honolulu. and
that tourists to the West coast all
seem to want to get over here before
they go East again, and stories OF
raiders in the Pacific have had little,
If any, effect on tourist travel.
Mr.. Good is staying at the Young
hotel. When he has settled the mat
ter of the location of his office, and
had a look around here as to things
in general, he will send for his fam
lily, now in San Francisco.

The committee found that ii could
not get far now, particularly in view
of the chairnarl's coming absence. and

II was roughly estimated that the
cost OF inspection would be about
$500 for the work in prospect.
