Greatly improved conditions in the
county districts where the "dOllar-a

operating have justified the existence
of these, lowest paid county employees
and have refuted the old maxim that
cheap labor produces wastefur methods
according to City Engineer A. s. Can
tin.
The three men who volunteered to
serve the county in the capacity of road
superintendent have been hard at work
on their districts and as a general thing
have succeeded in making one dollar do
service for two according to the sums
that have been spent on some districts
in the past. Superintendent James Glib
of the Eva District, manager of the
Honolulu Plantation, Manager Adams
of the Kahuku Plantation and william
Henry have been at work since the first
of the year in their respective districts
and have already produced results that
are greatly gratifying to the city en-
gineer.

now, at the rate the volunteer super

wonderful difference in some of our
worst districts" said Mr.. Cantin yes.

Joe MEDEROS IS
HELD FOR ACTION
Joe Medelros, Accused AS First
Stacker To Be Tried IN Territory,
Is Committed To Grand Jury

HILO, February l3-Joseph Medei-
tos, accused Of being a Stacker, who
defied the draft hoard when brought
before it some time ago, was arrest
ed in Hilo yesterday morning and
brought before United states Commits
siORer T. +. NJ. OsorO United States
Marshal Smiddy came to Hilo to make
the arrest, accompanied by s. c. Huber,
the United States attorney, says the
HilO Tribune February l3.
MedeiTOs was committed to the fed
eral grand jury for investigation and
his bond has been fixed at $1,000 Fail.
ing to find a bOndsmnn, Medeiros will
remain in Jail until summoned to ap.
pear before the federal grand jury.
The man had changed his name and
was working in this city under the
cognomen of "Joc Johnson" 1t was
this fact that delayed an arrest as
soon as the officer from Honolulu ar
rived. MedeirOs, however, was located
after brief search. and was then
brought before the district attorney
During the search for him another
individual, also named Joe MedeirOs,
was arrested. He was brought into
the draft headquarters but il was soon
seen that he was not the man for
whom warrant had been issued. He
did, however, turn out to be an evader
OF the draft for. although registered
on Oahu, he never had filed in his
questionnaire. The man contended that
the QUESTIONABLE had never been sent
to him and that he had come to HilO
to get work. f...
The district attorney decided that ii
the second Medeiros flied in the ne
cessary papers, he would be allowed
to depart. This was done and the man
is back on his job.
The original Medeiros, alias John
son, is now in the Halo Jail and will
be kept here until needed in Honolulu

MELBOURNE, January 27--( Associar
ted Press - Discovery that the Austria
lian government had placed orders ia
the United States for thei baildihg Of
fourteen wooden sailing chips, has
aroused the trade unionists to attack
the government. The criticisms D In
tensified by the charge that the, govern
ment has been shipping Australian inm-
Der to American yards for the c0nstrue'
ton Of the vessels. 80 Oh H r#g
, The Premier, William NJ. Hughes u
accused Of having broken faith with
the Australian shipwrights' by giving
the Amsfican N0rkmen the contracts
instead Of having the vessels built here.
Mr. Hughes replied by saying that
the ships were ordered from the Waited
States to meet tho critical situation aud
that with the cooperation Of Australian
workmen, the government was ready to
engage In ship budding in Australia.
He said that the last attenuation from
the United States was that the con.
Struction of the fourteen vessels was
being expedited
Commenting upon the affair, W. A.
Brown. secretary Of the Port Philip
ship Wrights Society, said;
"It seems disgraceful that, while Mr..
Hughes has been agitating for ship,
building in Australia, Australian
tradesHnen should have been so hood.
winked in regard TO the scheme and
that vessels are to be built in America
instead Of Australia, especially when
