A GOOD BUY.

Such comfort as there is in the present situa-
ton lies in the certainty that the buying power
of the dollar will increase infallaby, steadily,
as production overtakes demand. 1t will not
be long before we feel this; and we should have
begun to feel it already, but that profiteerlng,
boarding, greed and the too prevalent DISPOSE
ton to exact all the profits the traffic will bear
is retarding our return to normal conditions.
The man who saves his dollars now will find
them doubling in buying power within the next
three wears, as thoughtful students of finance
insist Saving dollars now is simply buying
them when they are cheap and keeping them to
sell when they are dear. To buy on rising
markt is the perfectly legitimate endeavor of
business; and men who now buy dollars with
their labor and hang on to them will inevitably
find them appreciate in purchasing power. The
dollar was never better investment than it IS
today.

A HINT FROM HILO.

Secretary Of the Navy Josephus Daniels had
a grand and glorious time in Hawaii, where
everything was done by the islanders to make
things pleasant for him. He saw the sights
and experienced the experiences for which the
most is claimed. Peraps he tried the loml- loml,
the native system of massage so effective IN re-
ducing the displacement of men of his mould.
Possibly he sat garlaned with leis OF flowers
and watched the hula dancers as they swayed
rythmicaly to the orgiastic cadences OF the
native instrument. Probably he sampled pol
and limu and other indigenous delicacies, but
it may be hoped that he frownd on kava and
sternly motioned that seductive fermentation
away. For from all that is generally known
about him his mentation would be disordered
by more than modicum of that, and the coun-
try wants him to appear at his best
But the really interesting incident that came
by cable concerning our junketng Josephus IS
that some unidentified blandlsher in Hllo asked
him gravely about his candidacy for the presl-
dency, and he took him seriously and answered
that ''that was for the people to decide The
Wilson administration, - he explained, has no
candidate for president as yet" 1t is lnsup-
posible that our secretary of the navy was I'M

PASSPORT REGULATION.

Bitter complaints are being made by people,
many of them protesting to be businessmen
and women, over the strict regulation imposed
on issue of passports to Europe. There is good
reason to suppose that tourists who seek mere
" travellers pleasure or to crafty curiosity
had best await a time when European travel Is
nearer normal and Europe's ability to care for
travellers is superior to conditions now obtain
ing. But if it be true, as stated, that the state
department sis anxious for the safety Of our
citizens who have legitimate errands in Europe,
either conditions are worse than is supposed or
else the department of state is worried unneces-
sarily. Presumably those who seek to cross the
Atlantic have knowledge of the conditions they
may expect to face and are prepared to meet
them. The more quickly government regula-
ton of war sort is removed from the reasonable
traffic of our people in all departments OF their
lives the better it will be.

Was the government afraid that by
selling them they would lower prices
at a time when lower prices were ex-
actly what the people wanted and
what they were entitled to have? It
is admitted that the war department
deferred to the packers and Gamers
when they held back the meat sup
plies and canned goods, many of
which have since spoiled in govern.
ment storehouses, but did they agree
with the clothing Laen also not to de-
press prices-that is to let them put
prices UP, for that is what it came
to mean?
But now these millions Of articles
that were drawn from the supplies Of
the country are to be released and
the effect of them ought to be good.
If they had been released caller per-
haps we would have been spared
some OF the spasms of discomfort
through which we have had to pass.

may be better than It's foresight
