SURPRISE TO U. S.
Offer by Allies for America to
Establish Armenia.
President Wilson and Congress
Expected to Refuse.

Washington, April 26.-Reports that
the allied supreme council has decided
to offer the Armenian mandate to the
United States and ask President Will
son to fix the boundaries of that newly
recognized nation, were received with
surprise in government circles here to-
day.
Officials thought it had been made
clear to the allies by hints and other
wise that there was no chance of this
country taking the mandate over Ar
menia
Congress is believed to be almost
unanimously opposed to the project,
especially since Maj Gen. Hartford re-
ported an army and large appropria-
tions would be necessary to make
good the mandate.
Nevertheless, there was some specu-
lation as to whether President Wilson

Carnegie Fund Gives 81 500 900 for

Washington, April rs. - Scientists
representing colleges and universities
in every section of the country attended
the opening here today of the annual
meeting of the National Academy of
Science. Three sessions are to be held
daily. Tonight two California astron-
oIners will discuss the size of the uni
verse, presenting their views as to
whether there is only one universe or
several.
Dr. Harlow Shapley of the Mount
Wilson observatory will discuss re-
Gently secured evidence which he be-

is many times greater than held in the
older theories. DR.. Heber D. Curtis of
the Lick observatory will defeat the
older view that the dimension sug

Coincident with the opening of the
academy's sessions DR.. Charles D. Wal
colt the president, announced the
plans of the society for the erection in
Washington of a national headquar-
ters to cost approximately s1,500,000.
The building will be located in Poto-
mac park near the Lincoln memorial.
The fund was donated by the Car
negie corporation Of New York.

5000 SEE s5TH PICTURES.
Come in From Out of City to View
Battle Scenes.

More than 5000 persons saw the
motion pictures of the Thirty fifth di-
vision at the Orpheum theater Sunday
afternoon and evening. Trains brought
| in many persons who came just to see
the pictures.
From the time the Orpheum doors
opened at 1 O'Clock in the afternoon
until late in the evening there was
constant stream of persons attending
| the show.
One of the most interesting views to
Topeka citizens was a series of pic
lures of the 15oth field artillery she'll
ing German village. Capt. W. P.
MacLean, now superintendent of the
Boys Industrial school, was in charge
of the first battalion of the regiment
at the time. Close-ups illustrating the
fast work of the French ISIS and the
lightning like rapidity with which they
were handled by their gun crews were
also interesting.
Two Topeka men were recognized
, in the picture. Capt. John Ashworth,
of the 18th infantry, was shown COM
ing out of a dugout. In another pic
ture Capt. Elmer Stahl, in charge of
Company A. 10th field signal bat
talon, was shown operating a field
radio set. Judging from the exclama-
lions heard occasionally from the
various parts of the theater, many ex-
soldiers recognized familiar faces.
G. L. Hooper, manager of the
Orpheum, offered the use of the thea
ter without charge. Harry Smith, ma
chine operator, and other members of
the Orpheum staff, donated their
services. Altho no charge was made
for the picture, a free will collection
was donated to the American Legion.
Earl Cummings, commander, and
John H. Bergen, adjutant of Capitol
post No. I. American Legion, were
very much pleased with the interest

would take this opportunity to reverse
ms recent decision to abstain from
participation in international politics,
at least until after the League of Ma
lions covenant has been finally ac-
copied or rejected by the United
States.
1t was conceded that the allied
proffer will give him a good chance
10 do this, should he have changed his
mind. But there was little expectation
that he would do it as such a step
would involve him in another clash
with the senate. With the campaign
getting under way and congress hur-
ry1ng legislation so as to be able to ad-
Journ by June, few looked for the
president to make an issue of the Ar
menian mandate.
Officials believed the request that
the United States accept the Armenian
mandate would be politely declined

SCATTERED $40 IN STREET.
Auto Hits Street Chr Inspector-Lat
Ter Badly Bruised.

An Overland car owned by Dean J.
P. DEB. Kaye of Grace cathedra and
driven by D. P. Higdon, proprietor of
a garage at 1914 Morris avenue. struck
Clarence Bran, an inspector for the
Topeka Street Railway company, at
10 o'clock Sunday night at the corner
of Eighth and Kansas avenue. Bran
was badly bruised and $40 in change
belonging to the company was scat
tered over the pavement.
At the cathedral deanery this morn
ing it was stated that Higdon had
called for the car shortly after 9
o'clock as was his custom and then
drove down town after his wife. Hig-
don was reported to have told mem
bers of the Kaye family that the ma
chine skidded on the slippery pave
ment.
F. J. Bartlett. an inspector for the
railway company, who witnessed the
accident, declared the driver of the
motor car was to blame; that Bran
was standing in the safety zone when
he was knocked down. Higdon was
attempting to pass another car at the
time. Bartlett said.
Bran. who was badly bruised about
the body, was dazed for a short time

MORE MEMBERS NEEDED

There is no good reason why the Maui County Fair & Racing
Association should not have at least 1000 members. There are that
many persons on Maui who could easily afford the small membership
fee (SlO for men, S. for women) and the nominal dues of 81 per year.
1t isn't the money that the organization needs. Thanks to the
generosity of the central Maui plantations the association is not only
out Of debt but has a comfortable surplus to devote to making the big
an-Nlaui club more useful to the community.
But 1t does need more members. If the organization is to be all
that it should be in the community it must have many more persons
who feel the personal interest and responsibility for its welfare which
only membership can bring.
Perhaps the best way to get these members to make it so obviously
an advantage to belong that no one can afford not to-, This might be
done by giving members privileges of one kind or ands.er which non
members should not have. This is not the case at present. There
is no good reason why members should not, for example be given the
first choice of seats in the grandstand at races or other events, or in
the territorial building at other kinds of entertainment. The price of
admission might be made less to members; and other advantages might
be thought OF, not with a view to discriminating against any one, but
to emphasize the fact that the Maui County Fair & Racing Association
wants Maui people to be members.

out with the seed. The seed grown
from this trial planting should be saw
ed for further planting, and if the crop
at all thrives, the seed so grown
should be sufficient to plant at least
ten acres. We would ask that an
amount of seed equal to that sent out
be returned to us, under frank, which
we will send out with the seed. The
seed now has a market value of Is
cents a pound, or 100000 a ton.
After harvesting a part of the seed
the crop may be turned under, with
full value of its manuring qualities,
and in addition will volunteer a heavy
crop for turning under the succeeding
year. Next to the pigeon pea we
believe this will prove to be the most
valuable crop introduced by the Elk
tension Division to Hawaii"

Suggests LupineS For
HULA Farm Lands
Experiment Station Man Says Seeds
Will Be Given For Trial Plant
ings - Crops Needed To Restore
Fertility.

To find a leguminous crop adapted
be used as a green manure crop, has
been the effort of f. G.. Krauss, direc-
tor of the Haiku sub-station of the
Hawaii experiment station for a num-
Der of years. The need for sU h a
crop has long been recognized by
modern a~griculturists, and Mr.. Krausl,
now believes hat he has found it.
In a letter to the editor of the Maui
News, under date of July 6, he writes:
1--WE have just received a fine lot
OF 'upine seed from Miss Mary Mac
farlane, of Grey Farm, Kula, who sell
ected these on our order last fall. |
have had the lupine under observation
for a number of years, with a view
to supplying a green-manuring crop
for the higher tuplands, such as are
characterized by~the extensive fine
silt corn areas in Kula, Maui; and
Waikee, Hawaii, where none of the
prolific legumes of the low lands, such
as the COW pea, velvet beam etc, will
thrive. We are ready to dis ribute
these seeds for fall planting, and
while we are sending out lots to ne
prominent ranchers, l thought
might reach a number of persons
through the Maui News who would
otherwise be missed.
ut is my belief that in no other
way can the worn out Kula corn lands
be more quickly and thoroughly re-
novated and brought back to the high
state of productivity for which they
were once noted, than by planting this
crop and turning it under to supply
the life-gfNing humus, which is now
lacking in these soils.
81 forgot to say that we will send
5 pounds of seeds, enough to plant
about one-half acre, to all who will
agree to give the crop a thorough trial
from this fall planting, and to report
to us fully on a crop report card, sent

OPEN FORUM
APPROVES OUR OPINION

Editor, Maui News,
Dear Sir: Doubtless you, in your
capacity as editor, are the recipient of
more or less Irish confetti, but per
nit me to send a bouquet. Your OBJ
servations on the nomination of Hard
ing are absolutely sound. l do not see
how the Republican Party could have
given their traditional enemies a wider
opening. The cowardly silence on
prohibition lin spite of the timely de-
cision of the supreme court and the
selection of a handsome nan of the
Mckinley type" as the car didate make
a hard dose for progressnp Ameri-
cans to swallow. The DemoCH-,ts are
sure, under Bryan's whip, to spSSk in
no uncertain fashion on the Rkh
amendment and if by any chance thee
should name a man like Meredith
quite improbable however, they
might easily enough defeat the gentle
mar of extreme pulchritude from
Ohio.
The supreme duty of America this
year is to eliminate Wilson and Will
sonism, and if the situation at San
Francisco shows the darkened nan OF
the White House TO be in control, our
only out left would be to shut our
eyes and swallow the reactionary can
didoto Of o,,r oun Marty
l am delighted 10 see at least one
paper in Hawaii which still thinks
that on occasion it is respectable TO
dissent.

WE'RE GLAD We WERE WRONG

Superintendent Vaughan MacCaughey, of the department of pub
lie instruction, in a letter to the editor taking exception to a recent
editorial crnclzing the holding of executive seasons, denies that there
were any closed sessions in the strict sense, in that the so-caled
executive sessions were all open to newspaper reporters.
Knowing Superintendent MacCaugheys idea on such matters rather
well, backed up by the fact that throughout his administration he has
made wide-open publicity his strongest weapon of both ofense and
defense, we never had doubted his personal inclination. 1t is refresh
ing to know now that he was also able to convert the whole school
board to his way of thinking. May the good example prove catching!
