WORLDS PRESS CONGRESS-

Representatives of "a publications of the Territory met in Homo
lulu last Saturday, organized to receive delegates from ~ different coun-
tries to Il Worlds Press Congress next October and, among other things,
approved the plan to have the visitors attend Maui County Fair II the
plan suits the managers OF the Press Congress, themselves. The
Maui plan gave Hawaii an equal opportunity with Maui to secure the
advantages of aNist from the delegates, and the Big Island expressed
satisfaction with MaulS proposal.
Too much emphasis cannot be laid upon the importance OF the
coming congress to the Islands. 1t is expected there will be at least
2U and perhaps 400 editors and publishers here to see the Islands and
get first hand information. This offers the opportunity to send away
tnat number OF boosters each OF which can number his readers in the
thousands, to secure publicity which no sum OF money, how ever vast,
could purchase. Transformation published is often worse than no pub
hcty and Hawaii Nei has the chance to set itself straight with ~ ma
tions OF the earth, to become known to the readers of those nations just
as the Islands we're seen by the editors and publishers. AS the project
is considered it looms larger and larger. The resulting publicity will
not be ephemeral, no single issue affair but will be constantly crop
ping out in subsequent writings OF the visitors, a publicity continuing
on and on through the life times of those writers.
TO bring SUCH a party to this Island is well worth the undertaking,
we'll worth while Will be the entertainment offered here, the pleasant
impressions left upon the memories OF the visitors. Such hospitality
shown will bring a thousand fold returns i'll years to come. And in
what Maui shows and does She is helping not merely herself but her
sisters. AS can the other Islands, % can Maui boast of scenery and
make good her boasts but no other Island is il a position to show ma
terial resources as will Maui. To the criticism that the Fair may seem
small the answer is that the visitors vii. wonder that any fair was pro-
duCed where they expected nothing OF the kind and they will leave
aStonished as well as pleased. The average visitor takes away memoir
les OF mountains and beaches, volcanoes and CraterS, palm trees and
hibiscus. Delegates to the press congress after visiting Maui will have
a better and broader concept than the ordinary.
AS d fair asset also the visit will mean much. To place indus
trial resources and material prosperity before the members of the press
congress the other Islands will demand space as they never have before

COUNTY LIBRARY LEGISLATION

Three county library bills have been prepared for presentation by
the legislature and action is to be confidently expected at the coming
session. One measure, which is expected TO be presented as al 'ad-
ministraton measure is the Maui Womans Club bill with three clauses
to cover the E1lo library and the third to direct the Library of Ha-
wii to assist county Libraries "by the interchange and loanng of books
and other reading matter and in all other appropriate ways to the full
est extent possible. Two OF the measures are prepared by the Library
OF Hawaii, one for Maui and one for Kauai. Maui Womans Club has
approved the bill drafted by its committee with the additions suggested
by the attorney general.
That there is necessity for separate measures covering Maui and
drafted by the Library OF Hawaii which might well be embodied in
the measure recommended for passage by the committees of the legis-
laturc. One is found in section ! which permits the trustees as they
are called in one bill or the board as they are called in the Womans
Club bill to receive on the part OF the library any gift, bequest or de-
wise and to apply the same to uses and purposes of the library.
On another point there is room for improvement in both bills. There
should be explicit provision relative to the supply of books to county
libraries by the territorial library. The Library of Hawaiis proposal
is that the Library of Maui may from time to time borrow such
reference material as connot be supplied from its own resources"
Neither bill is explicit enough in this respect, Maui News believes.
The one endorsed by the Womans Club permits borrowing to the full
est extent possible and does not make it explicit as to who shall judge
the possibility. Such provision should require the Library of Hawai-
to furnish county Libraries with a catalog Of the books in the Terri
torial library and to supply such county Libraries from it shelves as
freely as any individual no matter where resident.
For years Maui has been paying its share, now about a sixth, OF
all funds contributed by the Territory TO the Library of Hawaii and
ii will keep on so paying. Surely Maui is entitled to the same service
from the larger library that the City and County of Honolulu is. II
will take years to build up a library here. Meantime there is need OF
securing books from some source, especially works other than fiction
Maui OF right is entitled to draw on the library it has been supporting
The Library of Hawaii wants to get away from the present system
of Island service and this paper agrees that IN improved system can
be secured through county Libraries. Also the provision in the Attorney
Generals bill for branch Libraries or distributing points for the county
Libraries is an excellent one.
Some criticism has been aroused relative to proposed appropriations

HANDLING JUVENILE DELINQUENTS

Judge Banks who now has the Juvenile Court in Honolulu has been
criticised for saying he will not send a boy to the Boys Industrial
School except as the very last resort and that he will permit no hogging
to be done IN his court but Judge Banks il a man with the right ideas
in the handling of deinquents. He is essentially human and he has,
happily, not forgotten that he was a boy and what his own inclnations,
temptations and trials were. The editor of Maui News had the pleasure
OF a long talk with the Honolulu Judge n the subject last Saturday
and Sunday evenings.
When a boy is brought into the Honolulu Juvenile Court only the
Judge and the delinquent are together in the room, every one else, even
court officers, clerk and stenographer are excluded. Then the court starts
its investigation. A kindly man and a rebelious o T sorry boy re seat
ed side by side, the man in a chair, the boy on a stool. Then they get
acquainted and finally become friends. The maj can be very stern if
occasion requires but he can, also, be truly sympathetic. He goes into
all phases OF the case, habits, environment, health conditions, home life,
ambitions, hopes and sorrows.
Primarily it is the purpose OF Judge Banks in handling juvenile de-
lnquents to arouse self respect. TO have the respect of ones neigh
bors is splendid but it il worthless if one has not his own self respect
There the Judge finds the key to the situation. And he says that al
though he could secure greater mental pleasure in trying an important
equity case and listening to learned arguments, that enjoyment is not
50 worth while as the purpose and intent of making a real man of a boy
who has slipped or is slipping, OF leading back to the social trail one
who has started to stray.
