HAwAH AND GOVERNMENT RADIO CONTROL

There il reason to believe that the Honolulu Chamber of Commerce
was ill advised when it recently put itself behind the move to have the
Pacific radio communications returned to private corporations. There
is no question but that the government, through its navy department,
can furnish a better service than private companies with limited capital
And, barring the period of disorganization Immediately following the
taking over of control following the outbreak of the war, the navy has
rendered such service.
From the standpoint of world news alone, which s. of such vital
importance to the Islands, the navy has already demonstrated that it
can and will furnish a service that the private companies cannot or will
not even approach. If the Congress decides to continue the govern
ment monopoly, which is now being considered, it is expected that pro
vision will be made for a rate on press messages both from the main
land and from the orient, that will put the island press IN a footing
equal with mainland papers. On account of the heavy cost, as well as
the limited capacity of the companies which controlled the business OF
transmission prior to the war, this was utterly impossible. =.
Again, the navy is constantly improving and developing its radio
service by the addition of the newest and most efficient apparatus to
an extent that could scarcely be hoped for by concerns organized for
profit. The plans for improving the interisland service, now going on,
is a concrete example of what may be expected as a whole.
1t should not be forgotten, in recalling the shortcomings OF the
naval management a year or more ago, that it was handicapped serious
y through lack of competent operators and also to IN extent of eX-
perinced executives in this branch of the work. But this is a thing
of the past. The careless and inefficient boy operators taken from the
ranks of enlisted men of the navy, have been replaced by experienced
civilian operators who re being paid real salaries instead of the pit
lance which the private companies formerly paid their men, many of
whom were not American citizens.

IS THE HAWAHAN RACE DOOMED?

John c. Lane, former mayor of Honolulu and one Of the leading
Hawamans of the territory, figures that within another 100 years there
will be 10 pure blood Hawaiians left in all Hawaii His only consola-
ton is in the fact that the birth rate of part Hawamans is IN the increase.
But is Mr.. Lane right?
There is reason for the hope that he is not. If we may take the
American Indians IS a parallel it would seem that Mr.. Lane may have
overlooked the very important theory of the Survival of the httest'"
A decade or two ago statistics seemed to show that the red abor-
igines of America were doomed to quick extinction, and the time when
the last red man would depart for the happy hunting grounds was
carefully figured out, just IS Mr.. Lane has done in the case of the
Hawanans. And then the Indian ceased to decrease. In 1913 it was
estimated that the Indians in the United States numbered from 9 to 10
millions. The 1900 census showed that there were but $4,000 left
But the Indian bureau, in 1917 reported that the number of fullblood
Indians had increased to $4,000, and that the birth rate was steadily
increasing.
The explanation of this phenomenon is two fold. First, many of
the influences which had worked against the red man at first, follow
ing the occupation of the country by the whites, had ceased to exist
Second, and most important, a certain proportion of the Indian race
had been able to survive the diseases and vices brought in by the in
vading race, and to adapt itself to the changed conditions.
And now, those who have studied the situation, predict a steady
development of the American Indian as a part of the population of
the nation. He has not lost his identity, and, having adjusted himself
TO the new order of things, is slowly but surely coming back"
Not all who have studied the Hawaiian situation take the pessimis-
tic view that Mr.. Lane does. In fact, some of them at least, believe
indications are apparent that the limit of decrease among the Hawaiians
has about been reached. They believe that the Hawaiian, like the In
dian, has finally become adjusted to the new order of things, and i'm
mune to the influences which once wrought such havoc to his ancestors

FOX THE GLORY or MAUI

The recently organized automobile club for some reason saw fit
not to associate itself with the Maui County Fair & Racing Association.
A gun club, which is now being formed, is said to be hanging fire on
the question of whether or not to become an adjunct of the big All
Maui organization.
But most serious of all is the possibility that the athletic commit
tee, one of the most important components of the fair and racing as
ISOLATION, may withdraw and resume its old name and status of the
Maui Athletic Association.
1t will be most unfortunate for Maui if this withdrawal should
actually happen. 1t will be also unfortunate if new organizations
have any grounds for not caring to cast their lot with other earnest
workers for the welfare of Maui, as represented by the central body.
The great idea back of the Maui County Fair & Racing Associa-
ton is that through it the lost motion, duplication of effort, and the
working at cross purposes so common in many communities, might be
avoided. And it is in truth a great idea.
But it should be remembered that such ideal can only be realized
through harmony; and harmony cannot exist if there is a semblance
of coercion by the main organization of any of its divisions.
The rights of these branches and their freedom of action in their
own fields must be scrupulousy recognized and observed. Without
this the usefulness of the association must be greatly impaired.
Hlo wants a better steamer than the Mauna Kea. And she will
get it Hlo has a way of getting pretty nearly everything she goes
after. Maui has for years wanted something better than the C1audine.
Maybe we will get it if the Claudne sinks.
THE WORST has happened. Statesmen are beginning to say
that high prices are due to psychological factors.
THE CHIEF menace to civilization everywhere is the fact that
nobody feels responsible for what is going to happen.
