Honolulu, T. H., Aug. 3o.-(By
Mail.)-secretary Of the Navy Daniels
announced that he had authorized the
employment of twenty civilian radio
operators for service in the naval
wireless stations of Hawaii, thus re-
Heving congestion Of traffic resulting
from the discharge Of many duration
of the war; enlisted operators.
A committee of the Honolulu
Chamber OF Commerce, which pre-
sented complaints of poor commercial
wireless service to Mr.. Daniels, was
informed that the secretary armly be-
lieves the wireless systems should re-
main under the control Of the navy,
but that no effort would be spared to
improve the service and to maintain
1t at a high standard.
Secretary Daniels pointed out that
with several wireless stations working
on this island, there would be inter.
ference which would seriously hamper
communication. It was brought out
that $4,000 words are now beine
transmitted daily by the wireless eta
lions here, as against 5000 IN pre-
war days.

JOHN MITCHELL

John Mitchell, whose death occurred earlier IN the
week, was distinctively an American product though the
type Of development which ne represented Is by no naeans
as rare abroad as is sometimes supposed. We have num-
erons instances in other countries of the peunness boy
rising by his own strength Of character to q position OF
importance in the world Of great affairs, hut tho demo-
cratic character Of our institutions and the rapidity Of
our material development have combined to make that
form Of advancement in this country the usual and e.
pected rather than the rare and remarkable.
John Mitchell had the native genius which enabled
him to take advantage OF opportunities which others oyer
looked. and, from the hunnblest Of beginnings he advanced
rapidly to more and more important ~poaittons, and. for
years, until his activities became restricted by i'll health.
he was . recognised force in the affairs Of the country.
Identified with the cause Of organized labor, he aid much
to better the condition Of the men whose special repre-
sentative he was. and to bring about a recognition Of the
fact that the man who earns his bread by the labor OF
his hands Il = human being. entitled. no less than his
neishbos, to time. ana means and opportunity Tor the
normal development Of human relations. and thu broad
sntng and despanins Of his Life. y.
Mitchell was a constructive leader, and, like other
Men Of his type he incurred the ennntty ana had to meet
the btfter opposition Of men, who. PROCESSING to be frisnds
OF labor. sought to destroy rather than to build. and who
wrs ths forsrunneTs Of the destructive elements which
seek tsdD TO rsfoFm society By tasring down md tranpl-
ting under dont eli that society has ever accomplished.
