WINE BY WHOLESALE
SEIZED BY OFFICERS
Revenue Men Make Sudden Raid on Various Parts
OF Maui Bringing CONSERVATION to Many Law
Breakers Makers of Stills Face Heavy Penalty
MANY Booze Makers Said to Be Destroying
Their Equipment and Stock.

CONSERVATION descended this week
upon the hundreds of illicit booze
makers and dealers of Maui who for
a year and a half have been operat-
ing in all but open defiance of the
law.
And all this panic has been created
in less than a weeks time by virtual
ly one man.
Uncle Sam has finally begun to act.
AS a result 80 barrels of wine from
the Kaupakalua district is now held
by the revenue officers in Kahului to
later be destroyed. Half dozen
distilleries have been raided and hun
dreds of gallons of mash destroyed.
Three or four tinsmiths in Wailuku
and Paia, who, ever since the Shep-
pard act went into force have made
hundreds of stills for sale to okolehao
makers, find themselves facing heavy
fines and a tax of $40 for every still
manufactured.
One of these tinsmiths is said to
have admitted making Is stills in the
past 60 days Another confessed to
making within the past few weeks.
All of this excitement started with
the arrival of J. S. Gawne, field deputy
of the Internal Revenue Office in Ho-
nolulu. He has been assisted by H.
S. TAFT, local deputy collector of the
same division, and by Sheriff Crowell
and the local police. Gawne, however,
is given credit for engineering the
work that has been done, as well as
most of the actual work itself.
Great Drought Hits Maui
Although it rained copiously on We'd
nesday night, Thursday was perhaps
the driest day that Maui has ever
known. There is absolutely nothing
doing at the half-dozen or more places
on Market street where it has hereto
fore been easy to promote a thirst
quencher
Reports from various parts of the
island are that Japanese manufactur'
ers have been very busy destroying
their own stocks of mash and other
evidence against them. This is said
to be particularly true in certain Puu'
meme districts.
One man in WailukU with 25 gallons
of okolehao is said to have destroyed
it all so fearful was he that he could
not conceal it.
In various sections of Makawao
wine making and selling is said to
have been going on until this week
practically as though no law against
it existed. Gawne and his force had
no trouble at all in getting evidence

MakawaO Experiment
Farm To Have Building

Work will start very shortly on the
erection of the foreman's cottage and
other buildings needed on the terri
tory's demonstration farm in the Ma
kawao homesteads, according to F. G.
Krauss, director, of the Haiku sub
station of the federal experiment sta
ton. The money for the work is
$4,000 and comes from the sale of ter
ritorial bonds made recently.
Plans for the buildings are now be-
ing prepared in the public works
office, Honolulu, and as soon as they
are ready bids will he called for and
the work started.

Maui Teachers Hear
Inspiring Addresses
Annual Meeting OF Maui Association
Proves One Of Great Interest And
Value-Dr. Bunker'S Talk Held
Many Suggestions ~

The new officers of the Maui Teach
ers' Association, elected at the annual
meeting last Friday for the ensuing
year. are-Paul MacCaughey, presi-
dent; F. w. Hardy, vice-president;
and Frank Martin, secretary.
The meeting was very well attend
ed and was perhaps the best that has
ever been held by the association.
The feature of the day is conceded
to have been the address by DR.. Frank
Bunker of the federal school survey.
1t was constructive in high degree,
and was not uncomplimentary to what
has been accomplished in educational
work on Maui. DR.. Bunker is undoubt
edly fully awake to the big problems
of the Islands and his suggestions will
undoubtedly be of the greatest value.
The address by Robert Judd on the
work of the American citizenship COM
mittee of the Maui Aid Association,
was another inspiring talk. The pro-
gress that is being made in instruct
ing the young alien men of the plan
tations in knowledge of English and
of American ideals through the night
schools which have been established,
was Interestingly brought out.
For the rest. the program consisted
of short talks and demonstrations on
the technical details of teaching in
various branches:
The lunch served at noon by the
domestic science department of the
Puunene school, was excellent, and
was in itself demonstration of what
can be done in culinary way in the
schools.
Various musical numbers, instru-
mental and vocal, formed pleasant in
terludes to the work of the day.
The meeting was held in the Kahu-
lui community house.
Want Money Promptly
The Maui teachers have a kick COM
ing because of the delay in getting
their pay each month. AS a result of
Iilis ulooeilloldCllOu lHt lOllOMlHS ItSO-
luton was adopted:
Whereas Maui Teacher are forced
to wait from ten to fifteen days a
month for their salaries, while teach
ers in Honolulu are able to obtain
their salaries on the first of the month,
and
Whereas reports of Teachers at
tendance are mailed on the 25th of
each month,
"Be it therefore resolved: That the
Maui Teachers Association go on re-
cord as favoring the adoption of some
system whereby principals may be in
duced to send in their payroll reports
promptly and that teachers may re-
ceive their salaries on or about the
first of each month, and that a copy
of this resolution be sent to the De
partment of Public Instruction"

NEW MINISTER FOR KAHULUI
CHURCH TO ARRIVE TOMORROW

Rev. H. V, White, who comes to
Maui to accept the pastorate of the
Kahului Union Church, is expected to
arrive in Honolulu tomorrow by the
steamer Sachem. He is accompanied
by his wife and two children.
Mr. White, who comes from Hills
boro, Vt, is graduate from Harvard,
having finished his course in theology
last June. He is said to be forceful
and pleasing speaking.

against three Portuguese whose stocks
were seized-12 barrels from one, and
9 barrels from each of the other two
Worth 500 A Barrel
1t is reported that sale was made
recently of IL barrels of Kaupakalua
wine for $1100 cash. The current
price is said to have been 500 per
barrel.
The officers found a great deal more
wine in their search through Makawao
and there is likely to lot of arrests
within short time.
Held For Court
An old Japanese carpenter named
S. Harada, was gathered in by Gawne
during his raid in Makawao, and
charged with having a distilling ap-
paratus in his possession. He was be-
fore U. S. Commissioner Harry Moss
man on Wednesday afternoon and per-
mitted to give $500 bond for his re-
lease pending a hearing or trial.
NdudI recently Cieaned up
Deputy Gawne recently spent a
week or two on Kauai and the Gar
den Island went through very much
the same experience that Maui is now
undergoing. II is said that the booze
traffic down there has become decided
ly unpopular.
Not Sheppard Act
1t is understood that the Internal
Revenue division of the treasury de-
partment has lately received instruc-
tions from Washington to get busy.
Moreover it is doing this under author
ity of the wartime prohibition en-
forcement act recently passed by con-
gress, and not under the Sheppard act
passed two years ago for the Islands
alone. Although federal law it did
not apply on the mainland and there
fore the cumbersome machinery of the
treasury department could not easily
enforce it and the local branches of
neither the internal revenue service
nor the U. S. marshal's Office took
little or no interest in it.
More officers Soon
For a time it is stated that there
was some little misunderstanding as
to whether the war time prohibition
act should be enforced through the
marshaPs Office or the internal rev.
enue office, and until that was settled
little was done by either.
More deputies are expected from the
mainland in a short time to reinforce
the present staff, so that it will be
possible to effectively cover all of the
Islands.

PLAYGROUND EXPERT
COMING SOON TO MAUI

Word has been received here that
Henry S. Curtis, noted expert on
children's playground work on the
mainland, is expected in the Islands
in January for a stay of some months.
He will work out line of recommen-
dation adapted to the Islands under
direction of the school department.
Inasmuch as there is no fund from
which to pay for this work, Superin-
tendent MacCaughey has asked the
various churches and other institl-
tions to subscribe to a fund for the
purpose.

OLD REGIME MEN
STILL HOLD JOBS
By FRANK j. TAYLOR,

United Press Staff Correspondent.
BERLIN, Feb. 1.-(By Mail)-In
Berlin one is surprised to find the
large number Of men of the old gov
ernment who are still holding their
positions under the socialist regime.
The foreign office and practically all
of the state departments have about
the same staffs as held office during
the war
In many cases the heads of de-
partments are changed but the same
group of under-secretaries works un-
der socialistic head. Very often
the entire department is dependent
upon these undersecretaries The
majority socialists under Chancellor
Ebert saved many of these technical
men, as they are called, and it is
due to them that German executive
departments have continued to func-
tion in spite of revolution.

accordance with request received
from General Pershing, the Y. M. C.

going system of transport service on
each of the hundreds of transports
that carry the soldiers and sailors of
the United States homeward

According to the former employees
and representatives Of the new gov
ernment, the fate that men who
served the militaristic party are now
working with the socialists is not to
be looked upon with suspicion by the
allies, or to be taken as an indica-
tion that the government is any less
socialist
In Germany the departments OF
state are run upon a system whereby
a man starts in one as youngster
and grows up with the department.
His views will not keep him out of
office. Many of the former kaiser's
technical men protest they never
have been in sympathy with the mill
taristic party and always have been
liberals.
Though the radicals would throw
all these men out, because they are
democrats rather than socialists, the
majority socialists have taken a
broader view in the interests of keep
government machinery functioning.
Numerous departments operate
now without active heads practically
as well as they did under the old
regime. A large part of the eff
cheney is due to good organization,
but the men trained by the old gov
ernment are to be credited chiefly for
department operation under the pres
ent trying circumstances.

ITALIAN WOMAN'S VIEWS
ON SUFFRAGE FOR WOMEN

one of their theories long opposed by
the men, theory which had little in
common with the moral standards
and utilitarianism of the wealthy
bourgeoisie and the proletariat, no
less inclined to look on life as an
affair Of ordinary administration.
They had OWNED that the great posi-
tion of Britain in world politics could
not be attained without a reversal Of
the old individual prejudice, quick
ened by the moral utility of indus
trialism.
THE campaign was begun with an
admonition from the great queen who
in terrible hour of history realized
the conditions necessary to England s
existence. Control of the highways
of the sea-" That was the policy of
Elizabeth. The message was reduced
to these words: Il saved our coun-
try once; it is for you to save it
now" The British suffargettes raised
it as their motto. 1t was spread be-
fore an immense number of meet
ings and defended with profound ar
guments and lessons drawn from the
history of the great powers which
had ruled the world All the readers
of the Suffragette and of Britannia
realized the seriousness of this move
ment which upset the paltry notions
about the military duties of the
country
Traced Back to CromwelPs Puritans.
English women were already pre-
pared for political life. They had
taken part in many campaigns for
their husbands or brothers when they
formed the solid organizations which
resulted in suffrage.

her friends, the object of the suf-
fragists was attained in a hard and
sanguinary age which carried men
back to that moral elevation which
wealth and long peace had under
