CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
OPPOSES PROGRAM
OF WASHINGTON COMM

HONOLULU, Dec. 1S-The chamber
of commerce opposes in part the pro
gram of the special legislative com
mittee, which is leaving for Washing
ton shortly for the purpose of en-
~deavoring to get various changes made
in the organic act.
The proposed increase of the ter
ritory's debt limit from Z to 10 per
cent of the assessed valuation is one
of the items taken exception to.
Another is a proposal to increase
the salaries of legislators; and still
another is Wise's "back-to-the-land'
plan for Hawaiians, by which the ter
ritory would acquire former public
lands which shall be given to Ha-
waiians on perpetual leases.
The chamber approves certain land
law legislation, however.
Governor Mccarthy has received a
cable from Washington authorizing
the commission to sail before January
1, and it will probably leave according
ly by the transport Logan, due to sail
on December 81.

peerage for family reasons, but his
secret marriage years before to the
housekeeper rat the castle is an i'm
pediment. He re%pudiates his wife and
child, depending upon the peculiar cir
cumstances of the marriage to make
impossible any proof of a legal cere-

brothers yacht, the White Heather,
he had acknowledged Marion Hume as
his legal wife, before two witnesses.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-THE sugar

today when the senate refused to
sidetrack the railroad legislation on

Senator Harrison urged the senate
to confer on the house amendments
without sending it to a committee, but
Senator Ransdell objected because he
opposes the licensing provisions add

The story of Polly" which has

UNFAIR COMPETITION IN
SUGAR SALES is CHARGED

The practice of certian retail stores
of refusing to sell sugar to customers
unless the customer will at the same
time purchase from the store a stated
amount of other goods Is the basis of
Il formal complaint alleging unfair
competition issued today by the Fed
eral Trade Commission against the G..
n. Kenny Company, grocers. of wash
ington and Baltimore.
The commission charges in it's com
plant that the company has adopted
the policy of refusing to sell sugar
unless the customer will at the same
time purchase the same number of
pounds of coffee, thereby coercing d
customer into purchasing quantity
of coffee in excess of his needs or de-
mands, which results in deterioration
through the coffee SO purchased going
stale; the complaint says that the
company during the recent shortage
in sugar has coerced customers into
purchasing coffee in order that such
customers might purchase sugar from
respondent i'll order to satisfy their
needs and requirements. The COM
pany is given forty days to file answer
with the commission.

ADVISES INTERNATIONAL
CURRENCY STANDARD
English Delegate Believes Plan
Would Statilize Foreign
Exchange.

A proposal for the establishment of i'll
ternational currency as means to
stabilize foreign exchange has been sub
mitted by Marshall Stevens of Manches-
ter. England. to members of the United
States Chamber Of Commerce, now Civ
ing attention to international finances.
Mr.. Stevens was one of the British
delegates to the International trade con-
ference. which met in Atlantic, City
the latter part OF October. 1t is un-
derstood that his plan for an interna-
tional currency will be considered along
with other plans by the national COM
mittee on European finance. now in the
process of appointment by the Chamber
of Commerce.
The committee Is headed by Harry
A. Wheeler. vice president of the
Union Trust Company of Chicago. and
James F. Alexander. president of the
National Bank Of Commerce of New
York and chairman OF the executive
committee.
Mr.. Stevens, it is understood. has
discussed his plan with bankers and
business men in this country to a
considerable extent. He proposes the
issue by the allied governments of a
guaranteed currency. This currency,
he suggests, should be placed in cir
culation by the purchase Of war bonds
of the allies.
Mr. Stevens idea is that such a cur
rency Woulu StdndardlZe payments lot
international transactions. and that
it would be supplementary to any
plans for extending international
credits. 1t would supplant the exist
ing exchange business without elimi-
mating 1t.
The guarantee per unit of such an
interallied currency would not, he
contends. depend upon the value OF
the war bonds, but upon the definite
amount of commodities. distributed in
various countries for definite
amount of currency.
