Mala Wharf Will
Be Ready To Use
In Early February
Bigelow Visits Two Maui Pro-
jects and Is Especially En-
thusiastic AS To Kahului
Wharf Plans.

To see the progress making on the
Mala and Kahului wharf projects,
Lyman II. Bigelow, head of the har-
Dor board and the board of public
works was on Maui Saturday and
proceeded on to Hilo Saturday night
to look into subjects connected with
the harbor projects there. He eX-
poets to see Mala wharf in use early
in February and is enthusiastic as to
the Kahului wharf project.
Mala wharf will be able to accom-
modate vessels of the size of the
Hyades and might, at a pinch and in
good weather, berth the Manoa, Bige-
low says. The proposed lengthening
of the wharf for which an additional
loan fund appropriation was made,
has been held in allegiance owing to
the fact that the bonds were not sold.
1t is not too late for such work to be
done and will not be too late until e.
]. Lord, the contractor removes his
equipment. Such lengthening would
accommodate at the wharf steamers
Of still larger type.
Proposed Additional Unit .-.-
After the contract for Mala wharf
was let, Lord proposed to add unit
at what seemed a very low price be-
cause of his having equipment on the
ground. The proposal was endorsed
by the Chamber of Commerce, sane
toned by the harbor board, an addi-
tional appropriation made therefor
and then the matter ended for the
bonds were not sold. 1t is regarded
as improbable that Lord will take his
equipment away before the wharf is
ready for use and so, if immediate
action were taken it would be poss1-
BILE to add the other unit at this time.
otherwise the wharf will stand in
length as at present.
Bigelow says the rapid work done
by the contractor should mean that
passengers may step from steamer to
wharf by the first week in February.
There have been reports, however,
that the Inter-Island might refuse to
use the wharf because OF alleged
wash and swell alongside it, but there
have been no confirmation OF any
such reports.
kahuIui Project
AS to the Kahului wharf project, 1t
will be some time before pile driving
starts. At present riprap work is
going forward steadily. AS to that
project Bigelow is especially en-
thusiastic and says it will be one OF
the finest wharves in the territory.
It will be so located and constructed
he says that it may be extensively
heightened and increased in size at
any time desired or necessary when
funds are available. He does not be-
lieve, however, that its capacity VIII
need to be increased for long time
to come for it will be one of the big
wharves of the territory.
There have been differences OF
opinion as to the location OF the
wharf and the matter of dredging but
Bigelow maintains that even If the
pier head line had been changed IN
Kahului harbor as was proposed, the
necessary dredging would still nave
had to be done by the territory, not
by the federal government.

Dependent on Circumstances

preme court in deciding the appeal of
the American Steel Foundries Com
pany growing out of the strike at
Granite City declared, that organized
labor has no right to picket when
such picketing may involve impor-

Four Handed Entente
Reported as Pending
ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON, Dec. GA suggest
ed four powered entente between the
United States, Britain, Japan and
France has so far progressed that a
tentative treaty is definitely under
consideration in some quarters.
Indications are that the Japanese
and British are consulting their gov
ernments. Apparently the Americans
are not considering the proposal but
may do so later if it does not involve
obligations and requirements which
would run counter to general public
opinion.
It is understood that the plan has
been arranged under the American
arrangement under which treaties are
ratified by the senate.

the Somber little home of Lloyd
George on Dowing street after an all
night struggle seems likely to be
chronicled as the most momentous
event in the history of the Irish-Ang-
10 relations.
While the agreement still must be
submitted to the British parliament
and the Dali Eireann for ratification
there is disposition in all quarters
of London to regard the outlook as of
the brightest
The Standard says the govern
ments proposals for the Irish settle
ment provide for an Irish free state,
for the withdrawal of the military and
give safe guards which insure peace
full conditions in Ireland.
Reported Terms Outlined
The Central News says that the
Sim Fein definitely promises allegi-
ance to the British empire which is
said to be satisfactory to the King
since it involves Ireland's association
with the empire. Both sides are
bound by the agreement to recon-
mend it to their respective parlia-
ments and the consent of Ulster is
not required because she is permitted
to withdraw in one month, reverting
to her present status with a territory
to be determined by a boundary com
mission. A provisional government
for South Ireland will be formed
while the British government is con-
sidering the agreement.
Recognition of Ireland as an inde-
pendent state is said to be clear. On
the subject of allegiance a form of
words was found which was satisfac-
tory to the government. The Sim
Fein principal adopted by the govern
ment is said to have been that of
trusting Ireland fully and giving her
full power of decision without condi-
tions. 1t is understood that the agree
ment concerning the control of Irish
ports by British naval vessels is sat
isfactory to the Sim Fein.
The agreement was signed for the
British by Lloyd George, Austen
Chamberlain Churchill and Lord Ber-
henhead and for Ireland by Arthur
Griffeth, Michael Collins and r. c..
Barton.
Parliament this morning adopted
unanimously the draft OF the agree
nient and congratulated Lloyd George
and his colleagues on the success of
their endeayors.
Points At Issue
The big questions at issue between
the British government and the rep
resentatives of the Irish Republican
parliament have been:
Shall Ireland become entirely inde-
pendent or, if il remains within the
British empire, shall there be two
separate governments in Ireland, one
for Ulster and one for the rest OF the
country
Prime Minister Lloyd George has
refused to consider any proposal
which would put Ireland outside the
Empire
The Sim Feiners refused to admit
that Ireland should be split in two
parts.
Ulster refused to unite IN one par
lament with the Sim Feiners. It has
organized a parliament of its OWL
under the Government of Ireland Act
The Sim Feiners refused to set VI
a parliament for the South of Ire
land, as proposed in that act. They
adhered to their own Irish parliament
called the Dali Eireann, which they
had set up independently as the gov
erning body of the Irish Republic.
That was the situation when IN,
truce began last July, after Kinl
George had made conciliatorN

nAGE Laddie Boy, and have him bite whoever
i was responsible for having his master at
tempt by eleventh hour and forty fifth minute
command to halt the overwhelming of the House
leadership by the Republican insurgents. 1t has
become bad habit to run to the White House
for the use of a derrick to lift the party out of
its self-construeted holes. These situations are
always results, they not The last
a somewhat peculiar growth.
Following the leadership of the House Com
mittee on Ways and Means, the surtax on in
comes in the revenue law was fixed at
maximum of 81 per cent. This done rather
reluctantly under the party whip. In the Senate
the better organized agricultural bloc forced this
up to so per cent and without much protest
this accepted by the Senate leaders. In fact
it easy a victory that many members in
both Houses suspicious and took another
hitch in their belts when they read the names
of the conference committeeman.
From time immemorial it has been found
easier to beat such issue in conference than
to make too strenuous fight on the floor. Every
one has his chance to make a record vote and
with the record thus clear, accepts whatever con-
ference decides. Such is the theory. So this
time, conference decided on split making the
surtax 40 per cent But the House promptly in
surged. These wild and woody from the
rural districts wondered what to say back home
to explain such a reduction after those Senators
who are recognized the guardians Of wealth
and bulwarks of the rich, had so readily agreed
to the higher rate They moved to instruct their
members of the committee to stand for the Senate
so per cent and not permit the Senate to undo its
own handiwork
So it when the Q all went up to
the White House and letter from the President
indorsng the compromise read just before
roll call. Naturally it had no effect. The vocal
record was already made. 1t a vote to
preserve self-respect we'll as to chronicle con-
viction. 1t was but result of the leadership
in both Houses under which insurgency has grown,
that has produced the agricultural blocs, the new
member bloc and a spirit of independence OF
strict party lines.
The 100000 majority was, rather too much
for the party leaders 1t sounded to their ears
like license. They the wheelhorses, the old
substantials the always dependabes. 1t really was
not at all that sort of majority and the men
who get to Congress for term naturally care
more for public opinion in their districts than for
the party lash, which has lost most of its snap
and quite all of Its reason for being.

A Faithful Officer.

THE retirement of Maj. Cessford as superin-
i tendent of police closed a quite remark
able but also typically American career. Mr..
Gessford was almost born to the police force, his
father having been policeman. He himself entered
the force a young man, starting at the bottom
as patrolman. He gained the top by faithful serv-
ice, hard work, ability and merit He had no
pull" He and his friends did not belong to the
pull" class.
What the average may not know and
what others may fail to consider, is the fact that
it is not only sightseers, the curious and those
in search of social sensations who seek out Wash
numbers, because this is the center of govern
ment and so of diplomatic life, because this
brings so much of wealth here, it also brings the
criminal class. 1t is the belief among these last
that there are fine pickings in Washington, es-
pecially at the height of the social season when
the abandoned homes" of wealth and fashion
are opened.
Police protection for Washington, therefore
is much more of problem than its population
would indicate. 1t requires a more perfect organi.
zation, alert force, one that works as a
unit, loyal. responsive and disciplined to hold
crime here within bounds Maj. Gessford has
built Up such force. 1t is of which Wash
ington is proud and that is not excelled in
efficiency. That he should have been the center
of many unjust attacks is natural. The police
often are, and that, frequently from the forces
of evil under the suise of responsibility.
But he has weathered such tempests and re-
firing because Of i'll health he takes with
him the Endorsement of the Commissioners. an
uHtarnshed reputation, the more than good will
of the people of the city and consciousness OF
fully deserving his honors and these plaudits.

Vets Want no Increase.

10 the EDITOR. The washington Herald:
. There is a bill increasing the PEN
lsions of civil war veterans from $50
to $72 per month now in Congress.
This bill ought not to be seriously
considered. for IL was not drawn in
the interest of the veterans of the
civil war nor for the relief of their
necessities, nor did II originate with
them.
The old soldiers. as a class. are
satisfied with their present pension
of $50 per month. and deprecate any
further agitation for an Increase as
a reflection upon their patriotism.
For them to ask for an increase at
the present time and in the present
condition of the u. S. Treasury, and
while every effort Is being made to
reduce cost of living. would be I'M

hesitated to assume more than their
share of the burdens of social life.
