members of the board of supervisors
of Hawaii. who were convicted Mon
day on charges of spending the coun'
tvs money when appropriations to

available, depends upon the will OF
the citizens of Hawaii, according to
Attorney General Harry Irwin.
The law provides, the attorney gen
eral said yesterday, that impeach'
ment proceedings against county OIL
Gals may be brought through the
filing of a petition signed by any 20
qualified voters of the county. Should
the citizens of the County of Hawaii

department will be glad to assist
them in every way, the attorney SEN

we should go out Of our way to work
up a petition against the convicted
supervisors" he declared.

board members will have a salutary
effect upon other boards in the Ter
ritory and prevent possible eXpendi-
ture of funds contrary to the pro-
visions of the statutes is the opinion
of Governor Mccarthy voiced yestei-

SCHEIDEMANN RAPS
BISMARCK PALACES

Copenhagen, Feb. 14-Philip Scheide-

met of Germany, attacked Prince Bis

an interview with the Zeitung am Nib

He says that Bismarck's policy was a
failure ALMOST everywhere, adding: we
mad to pay for it's mistakes in North
Schleswig and in Alsace and Lorraine.
The policy of new Germany" he con-
tinues, must be based not. as Bismarck
planned, on opposition. but in harmony
with Austria, not on the slender pillar
or the might OF a single fedora, govern
ment, but on the broad democratic basis
q the united will Of all the German
tribes.

again-that Is impossible-but to place
the responsibility for the terrible results
of such peace on the shoulders of those
who think they can answer to history
for It,"
The interview concluded with an eN-
preston of deep regret that Germany's
position is almost nowhere appreciated
abroad. 1t is admitted that all Ger
