Believe Prisoners
Too Kindly Treated

Safety of citizens of Maui and their
property is menaced by convicts and
prisoners at large, was the assertion
made by r. A. Wadsworth at the
meeting of the Chamber of Commerce
yesterday. Prisoners go practically
free about the streets, they drive III
tomobiles unlicensed and for officers
who have no license to drive, we
have had the experience of their es-
capes from Kahului and from the jail
here, of their burglarizing houses.
Women are afraid to remain at home
alone at night. There is too little
care given to their custody. l am
opposed to pampering men of that
class, to ~banquetting them on holt
days and to giving them freedom.
Criminals are sem to prison or Jail
TO be punished, not to be given an
easy time and to live high"
Mr.. Wadsworth cited cases of autos
driven by prisoners being in collision,
of depradations which could be laid
to prisoners and asked action be
taken by the chamber. If that body
was not the one to act a vigilance
committee should be organized, ne
continued.
Other speakers talked in a similar
vein giving instances of theft attri-
buted to prisoners and of prisoners
walking about in private grounds.
After some discussion a motion was
adopted that it was the sense of the
meeting hat prisoners in Wailuku
Jail and at the fair grounds in Ka-
hului are granted too much liberty and
freedom and are extended too much
courtesy and hat more diligence
should be exercised in their control.
The secretary was instructed to take
up the subject with proper officials.

Free Passage for
Teachers Advised

Free transportation for teachers
from the mainland to their posts In
Hawa.- is advocated by Superinten-
dent of Instruction Vaughan Mac.
Caughey. He so expressed himself at
the meeting of educators held in
Honolulu last wee when he said, in
part:
But it is up to the Territory to
bring the teachers here. Although we
are making every effort to obtain an
adequate supply of teachers from
within the Territory, this is impossible
at this time and will be impossible
for a few years yet. And in the
meantime something must be done to
assure us of teachers from the main
land, where we are forced to obtain
them.
Preliminary Costs High
THE proposal that a teacher on the
mainland spend from 5000 to $500 to
come here for a position which pays
$50 a month would be funny if it
were not SO tragic. When a business
firm of Hawaii desires labor of any
kind from the mainland it sends for
it and provides transportation. This
most certainly should be done by the
Territory.
Department Stumped
Under the present situation the de-
partment of public instruction is
stumped. We do not know what to
do to provide sufficient teachers for
the 10000 school children who will
crowd into our classrooms on Septem-
Der 10. Literally scores of teachers
who have been appointed and have
accepted have now written and cabled
us that they will not come unless they
can get transportation On transports
or are otherwise provided with ac-
commodations free of cost to them.
And in this regard it might be
pointed out that the Japanese Ian
guage schools pay the transportation
of alien, Notwithstanding teach
ers whom they import"
Relative to transportation by
federal government on trar
said:
This plainly is NJ uu,
the transportation department of tn,
army. The transports are primarily
and fundamentally for the trans.
portation of troops and ordnance
and it cannot be expected that the
bringing of teachers to this Territory
would be a matter to which the de-
partment would give concern"
