The Maui news. [volume] (Wailuku, Maui, H.I.) 1900-current, 1920-10-29
KUHIO'S ABOUNDING FAITH

When defending the socaned Rehabilitation Bill in the course
of his speech in Waikiki this week Delegate Kalanianaole attempted
to answer the criticism that to put under water the land it is proposed to
allow Eawamans to settle on would occasion a debt too great for the Ter
ritory to bond and support. He said that if the burden were found to be
too heavy for the Territory, Congress would undoubtedly come to the
rescue with Federal aid.
There is a display of faith not warranted by past experiences. lime
after time when there are appropriations made for the rest of the Unit
ed States, now for road building, now for educational purposes and
again for other public benefits it is specifically provided that Hawaii
is not included" In placing hope in federal relief Hawaii would merely
be taking a chance on congress which "the rules of the game do not
warrant.
Nor has the delegate yet made it clear how he makes the paternal-
isic Rehabilitation Bill jbe with his previously expressed ideas on
home rule and the declarations on the subject of the Republican plat
form.
Maui News is confident the delegate will be reelected and as a
candidate on the Republican ticket he has, the papers support but once
more he is warned that his majority in the primary and the one he will
have at the general election is in spite of his support of the objectiona-
BILE measure and not because of it. The thinking element of the party
consider the subject one for Hawaii itself to determine IT one for the
Territorial legislators to give to Washington a oppression of the will
of Hawaii before such a law be thrust upon the people of Hawaii.

DOES MAUI WANT BIND?

In the intermissons between numbers of the band concerts during
the fair and as the crowds would leave the grand stand after such CON
certs frequent expressions of the wish that Maui might have such 4
band so that concerts of a similar excellence might be of frequent
occurrence instead of a rarity, were heard. There is no doubt the
concerts by the military band were hugely enjoyed as the expressed
wish OF so many of the auditors evidenced. 1t is possible for Maui to
have its own band, one that would equal the musicians recently here
and excel the present Hawaiian Band if Maui folk really want it. 1t
is simply a matter OF going about it to get the organization.
Tito Liparhti, the leader of the military band would willingly come
to Maui, organize a band and take charge of musical affairs here. He
would come at a reasonable salary and devote his entire energies to the
creation of musical organizations. He has shown what he can do by
organizing the Hawaiian Infantry Band while Oahu was garrisoned by
Island men and since then in the making of the military band brought
here for the Fair. He can secure his discharge from the Army and
would do so if Maui wanted his services.
1t has been suggested that a band could be organized with a mem
bership in Waikiki, kahuui, Paia and Puunene, places within a CON
yenient distance of Waikiki to permit attendance at the frequent
rehearSals that would be necessary. 1t has also been suggested as d
possibility that if the Supervisors would make an appropriation for
such an organization it might be supplemented by further support
from the three central Maui plantations. There would then be a Maui
band which could play at I4ahaina and other Maui points besides Wal
uku, KahuuiL Paia and Puunene, would be available for the annual
fair and for other events conducted by the Fair and Racing Association
and on occasions of public interest. 1t is urged that good music has
an important part in community welfare.
AS to the services OF a leader a further suggestion is made that the
one chosen could organize a Boy Scouts band and train ii and give in
struclon in orchestral music in schools if desired. 1t is certain the
proposal for a Boy Scouts Band would meet with approval.
But to secure a leader and organizer and a band of trained music
las there must be made an evident indication that it is really desired
There are indications that there will be built up one or more musical
organizations by the sugar companies but in such o. eventualty such
band or bands would not be available for other Maui places at all times.
This paper will be glad to give space to expressions of views on
the subject that may be sent to it in letters.

FAIRS SUCCESS GROWS

While the financial accounts of the Fair of last week have not yet
been cast up, figures OF attendance are at hand and show an increase
in attendance Of fifty percent over last year. Eddie Fernandez, the
chief conceSionaire says that he paid the association about three times
as much as a year ago and then he had concessions for the sale Of
eatibes which he had not this year. The grand stand was well filled
Thursday and Friday afternoons and evenings and on Saturay it was
of insufficient capacity for all who sought seating capacity. 1t is in
Dictated the Third Fair was a financial success.
In other respects it was an even greater success. There was not
a department in which it did not excel previous efforts and when that
is said there is nothing of dsparagement to past arrangements intend
ed. This years management had the opportunity to improve from the
experience of the past and did so. So it will be that another year the
management will have the advantage of the experience of this year.
Good as was the Third Fair there is room for improvement and prob
ably every member of the management will say he knows he could do
better another time. AS a matter of fact some of them re ready with
suggestions as to the department they were connected with and have
expressed the intention of making suggestions on the subject to the
association.
In the matter of entertainment as well as exhibits, the fair eXCened
and for that, to a large extent, Maui must thank the Army and this
is generally recognized. However the Fair was and is essentially a
Maui enterprise and the success made is another Maui triumph.

h WORD TO

Maui News wants the cooperation OF all the residents of Maui
it can secure to help make this paper thoroughly representative of all
parts OF Maui. 1t hopes that each school will, from time to time,
send in items of school news but it especially seeks the cooperation OF
school teachers in other ways.
Correspondents are sought in every community and this paper will
pay such correspondents for their efforts. 1t would prefer to pay
school teachers rather than any other class of persons, recognizing that
they are now underpaid, 1t also has some other projects to take up
with the teachers and in the coming month letters will be sent to the
various school principals which they will be asked to call to the aten-
ton of tibet teachers.
Maui News is the friend of the schools, the teachers and the
scholars and wants the cooperation and assistance of the teachers.
1t may be the Hawaiian Electric Company is waiting for an invi-
tatlon from Maui to enter the lighting field here. Whether or no, some
thing ought to be done and if twere done when twere done then
twere well 'twere done quickly. Delays are dangerous.
Tuesday is election day. The real campaign appears to have been
conducted during the primaries but that's no reason to stay away from
the polls. Vote early and roll up the biggest majority for the Republi-
can ticket the county has ever known.
Another autocracy is destined to perish on March 4 next. The
voice OF the great American people will be heard next Tuesday calling
Tor the return OF the Republican party to all three branches of the
government.
Kauai may be the Garden Island but it would find it hard to equal
the floral exhibits Maui offered at the Fair.
