Headlights Glare
Must Be Modified
One Of Serious Night Dangers on
Roads Of Maui Given Attention by
Directors Of Maui Automobile
Club

Glaring headlights, as to which
there has been much complaint re-
Gently has come in for attention of
the automobile club. Refuse thrown
along the roadside has brought forth
a letter addressed to an alleged Of
fender. Relative to the headlights
evil cooperation is promised bu auto
mobile dealers on the Island.
A meeting of the board of COVER
nors of the Maui Automobile Club
was held at the Baldwin Bank, Kahu-
lui, Monday evening. Governors pres
ent were president Ben Williams,
vice-president d. c. Lindsay, secre-
tary j. p Foster, F. P. Rosecrans, F..
B. Cameron and w. A. Baldwin
The Secretary reported that Sena-
tbT III. A. baldwin ,had advised
against the introduction of the pro-
posed Territorial Automobile Bill at
the special session of the Legislature
and had recommended that the bill
be presented at the regular session
to be held in the early part of next
year. A letter from Mr.. Bevins, re-
porting progress in drafting the bill,
was read.
Headlight Evil Up.
The Secretary reported that the
| following letter had been sent to all
the automobile agencies in Wailuku:
Dear Sir:-Would you be willing,
in conjunction with the other agen-
cies on Maui, to agree that begin
ming with the first of November, you
will not make delivery of any car,
either new or used, which is not pro-
perly equipped with diffusion lenses
or other efficient means of eliminat-
ing headlight glare?
| AS you are well aware, the head
light menace is very serious and en-
dangers public safety. While there
are county ordinances which If en-
forced would doubtless be of some
benefit, the fact remains that the
condition complained Of is becoming
worse all the time. The mutual ac-
tion suggested above, while 1t Will
not help the present situation mat
erially, will prevent 1t from getting
any worse.
Yours very truly,
MAUI AUTOMOBILE CLUB"
Mr.. Gesner, Mr.. Bush, Mr. Lewis,
and Mr.. Holt gave cordial assent to
the suggestion of the Club, and prom
ised their cooperation. The follow
ing letter was read from the Pond
Company:
Maui Automobile Club:
"In reply to your letter of October
/ 9th, 1920, to our Mr.. Mcneil, ask
ing If this firm would be willing to
equip all machines sold by us on
Maui with diffusion lenses to elimi'
nate the headlight glare, wish to
| state that all new cars sold by this
company are so equipped. From your
letter we infer that there is a eoun
ty ordinance regarding the use OF
headlights and if the county authori
ties would start campaign similar
to that now being conducted by the
police of Honolulu, we believe that
this evil will soon be rectihed, we
will issue the proper instructions tt

LIGHT PROBLEM
is UP In AIR
Hawaiian Electric Company Deter
mines it Will Not Enter Maui
Field; Action on Part of Citizens
Once More Required

Lighting of Wailuku once more
looms big as a problem. F. f. Blake
of the Hawaiian Electric Company has
told r. A. Wadsworth that his COM
pany has given up the idea of pur-
chasing the Island Electric plant eli.
ther at private sale or public auction.
On the return of Mr.. Blake to Homo
lulu he was quoted in a Honolulu
newspaper as saying
That his corporation had definitely
and finally given over all idea of pur-
chasing the business of the Island
Electric Company at Wailuku, Maui.
This purchase was seriously consider
ed at one time, but after looking into
the condition of the plant and busi-
ness the local concern decided that
1t would not be a desirable investment
1t is thought that the Island Elecric
will now be sold at auction by order
of the court"
Explanation Not offered
Mr.. Wadsworth has asked Mr.. Blake
to put the decision of the company in
writing and mail it to him. On receipt
Of official, written statement it is prob

mittee together and that body will con-
slider what is best to be done next.
Asked if he was told the reason for
Hawaiian Electric Company's change
of intention, Mr.. Wadsworth said he
had not been and when asked if he
desired to make any public expression
now he said he had nothing to say
that would look well in print"
Complications Grow
For some time past the lighting sit
uation has been growing more compli-
Gated. When new houses are built
the occupants want their homes con-
nected up for lighting. Mr.. Blair says
the Island Company can hardly be ex-
pected to purchase and install supplies
and turn them over to the H. G. &
S. Co. as lessee and the lessee can
not be expected to go to such an ex-
pense for something that may be turn
ed over to the lessor or its successor
in short time
When the sugar company undertook
to help Wailuku out of it's difficulty
it agreed to furnish current to then
users. Changes are made from time
to time, tenants go out and new come
in, more power current is sought by
some and the bookkeeping and trouble
multiplies for the H. G. & S. Co which
cannot be expected to continue the SER
vice that it is rendering indefinitely.

Governor McCarhy has signed the

cerned.

revenue. If it does not something else
must be devised The utilities board
should have something definite before
it. | hope We can get together with
the public and have something that
will satisfy all parties"
The chamber of commerce commit
tee will gather data on the working
of the system and hopes to formulate
a plan that will replace the obnoxious
one but is not yet holding meetings,
awaiting a fair trial of the company's
plan and time to secure data on its
working. Two or three months should
give a fairly definite idea, ii is thought
of whether an adequate revenue will
result.

More Frequent Meetings
Notice was given of a desire to
change Section l, Article II, the
Club bylaws so as to provide for

change Section Z, Article IL, so as to
provide for stated quarterly meet
ings of the board OF governors, imme-
diately preceding the stated quarter

pose of considering the change in the
bylaws and other matters OF busi-
ness, and also instructed to arrange

the Maui Telephone Company and
call his attention the action of the
telephone linemen in cutting down XII
awe trees and bushes along the pub
lie roadside, allowing them to remain
there, dry out, and work down into
the road way, where the kiawe
thorns are certain to cause damage
to autodobile tires. The Secretary
was instructed to call his attention
to Maui County Ordinance No. II,
prohibiting the throwing of vegetable
refuse of any nature on publil high
ways within the County of Maui.

Mill Grinds Wait Upon
Development of Cane

Sugar mills of Central Maui will
start grinding later than normally
this year and it will probably be well
on in December before all of them
are turning out raws to capacity.
Such are the advices received this
week.
1t is the protracted drought of this
year that occasions the holding back
of the start. Development of the
growing cane has been retarded and
it is good policy to wait until the
sucrose content has reached desir-
ed stage. This is the policy of the
Central Mapi plabtaVonI companies
and at this time it is impossible D
set definite date when any of them
will set the mills turning.
So far as installation of new ma
chinery goes and the renovation of
the plants, there is no occasion for
delay. 1t is merely that by waiting
for full development of the cane in
sucrose a better recovery can be
secured than by an early grind.

DANCE AT THE woMAN,s GLUE

The Woman's Club house was most
brilliantly decorated last evening
with the many Halloween fancies
which marked the opening ball of the
season of the Eight O'clock Dancing
Club.
Streamers of yellow and black
crepe tissue paper were strung from
the corners of the large dancing hall,
while spooky lighted lanterns hung
about in convenient places with the
addition of witches. cats and many
other Halloween ornaments placed
everywhere around the walls and to-
gether with the many beautiful cos
tunes of the dancers made most
dazzling appearance.
The dance was opened with grand
march led by Mr.. Whitfield Palmer
and Miss Blair Woodrow.
The Davis orchestra furnished the
music, which was exceptionally good,
so much so that several hours of the
morning passed before departure for
home was thought of.
During intermission delectable re-
EITeSnmGHIS were S6EVGu anu LiIE yOuAG
men belonging to this club certainly
left nothing undone to make one Of
the most elegant and delightful
dances ever held in Ocala.
The Eight O'Clock Dancing Club is
one of the most popular that the city
has ever had and its reorganization
means a great asset toward the socia
life of the city. Before the war these
dances were looked forward TO with
the greatest of pleasure and last
night marked the first dance given By
this club since it disbanded on &C
count of the young men entering the
service of their country.

ID. i. q. CELEBRATED
ALL. HALLOWEEN

Never before in the history of
|Ocala was Halloween so widely cele-
brated for the town from one end 70
the other had parties and elaborate
ones, too. but none surpassed the
party given by the members Of the B..
II. p. IT. at the Baptist parsonage last
evening.
The entire lower floor of this spac-
Iious home looked ike a "spooky king
dom" for it was most deliberately
decorated with yellow and black crepe
paper, owls, cats. witches. jack-'o-
lanterns, etc, and every guest wore
costumes, some in the fashion of
Ghosts and fortune te1lers, but the
only one of the latter proving pro-
lfessional was Miss Ola Sims, who had
booth under the stairway which
proved most popular rendezvous
throughout the evening.
There were many interesting games
played, such as jumping the broom
Ipinning the tail on the cat, blowing
lcandles out. bobbing for apples, etc.
and the most successful one in these
contests was Mrs. j. w. Tillman, who
was awarded an appropriate prize. A
march in the yard and eating peanuts
were other forms of entertainment
lenjoyed.
Refreshments of spiced cake, punch
and apples were served This was 9
flovely and much enjoyed occasion
which was largely due TO the cordia
hospitality of Rev. and Mrs. G. L. Col
Inns and their daughter. Miss Rutf
Collins.

Tumulty recalled the presidents
to rise in the funeral
procession in New York Of the SOL
diers and sailors killed at Vera Cruz,
although secret service men warned
him of rumors of attacks on his life
and told him he could show respect by
appearing in the reviewing stand.
s'The country cannot afford to have
a coward for president" was his an
swer, and he rode in the procession.
Tumulty said the president insisted
on article ten of the league to fore
stall the necessity of the United
States going to war by making it a
participant in a "plan to prevent the
beginning of such a war"
at was he who conceived the plan
for mining the North Sea and it was
Wilson who brought the plan foI
combining the allied forces under
Foch, Tumulty said.
The "grave fault" which Tumults
said he found in the president was hi
ignorance Of show to play to the gal
llery." Tumulty said he loved hin
better for it.
