WHO PUT IT OVER ON THE BOYS

I think know the American sol.
dier and sailor. | lived with him for
three years. | knew him on duty
and off. | visited him in more thar
twenty camps at home, besides in
France, England, Siberia and the
Philippines. | messed with him in
barracks, travelled with him on troop
trains, and on ocean transports, l
crossed the Atlantic twenty times
and the Pacific four times with him.
For months at a time | was scarcely
ever more than a hundred yards
away from several thousands of him.
| know him all the way from Texas
to East twenty-third street, and from
the cotton belt to Montana. And the
average American soldier and sailor
is and always was sober and decent.
And just because he represents the
average American young nan he had
already voted to kill the saloon and
the whole liquor traffic. 80.
Let's put the traducer Of our splen-
did army and navy where he belongs

met him again the other day

| met him again the other day.
Every once in awhile. l hear some
thirsty crouch (who usually claims to
be a good American) ranting about
the injustice done to the boys in the
service by the passing of the
Eighteenth Amendment. He tells me
how it pains him when ne thinks of
the way the dry fanatics put it over
on the boys who were over in France
fighting for liberty, while at home the
b~usy-bodies were voting away his
liberty through prohibition. 1t never
would have been done if the boys of
the army and navy had been allowed
their chance to vote on it."
Whenever any man tells me that
he does two things which are not
very creditable to him. First he pre-
sumes upon my Ignorance or exposes
his own. A great American humorist
used to say IT'S better not to know
so much than to know so much that
amt So" which is something my
friend forgets.
The United States entered the
great war April 6, 1917. The first
troops of the A. E. F. did not go
across until hat fall, and only a very
few went at all until the spring of
1918 During May, June and July we
wore taking them over at the rate of
25O,O00 or more a month. Before
ever a boy of the A. z. F., had enlist
ed COutside the regulars) thirty six
States had voted total prohibition,
while every other state in the union
had more or less dry area by local
option.
Col. Bob" Ingersoll used to say
he'd be a Christian when Kentucky
went dry If he had lived only un-
til 1910 he would have seen Kentucky
with more than 60 per cent of her
population living under dry laws in
more than 95 percent of her territory.
And Kentucky was one of the first
states to ratify the amendment when
it "a submitted.
When the amendment was submit
ted not only were there these thirty
six states dry, but within a year nine
more states voted to ratify. Forty
five out of forty-eight states voted for
ratification. What my friend forgets
Cor does he hope l do?) is that the
american soldier and sailor had al
ready had his voice and vote on the
prohibition question before he even
left home for the training camp. And
the facts show how he voted.
Second-the man who tells me that
the American soldier and sailor
would eve have allowed prohibition
to go into effect ISLANDERS the soldier
and sailor. For what he intimates
(he'd scarcely dare say so outright)
is that all the A. E. F., were booze
fighters, friends of the saloon and
liquor traffic, and millions of Ameri-
cans soldiers and sailors give the lie
to his base Islander.

Contestant Believes That
Favoritism Was Displayed

Waikiki, Maui, Oct. 10, 1921.
Editor, Maui News,
Waikiki, Maui.
Dear Sir:
AS one of the contestants in the
so called Popularity Contest" cor
Quoted by one Eddie Fernandez in
connection with the recent Maui
County Fair, l wish to express to my
many friends who so Loyalty support
ed me my appreciation of their eff
forts in my behalf.
At the same time l wish to enter a
protest against some of the actions
on the part of persons in charge TO
the so called contest in connection
with the favoritism shown by them
to other contestants. I have particu-
lar reference to the giving of books
of tickets as prizes in a game con-
Quoted at the booth at the Fair
Grounds in which the particular value
of the book of tickets consisted Of
chances to win a Ford automobile, at
which winners of books of tickets
were importuned by persons presum-
ably in charge of the contest to cast
the votes represented by these tickets
for particular contestants.
| wish to make this protest not in
a spirit of pique but because of a
feeling of unfairness On the part of
the management of the contest which
consistently urged contestants to in
duce their friends to purchase votes
on their behalf and at the same time
openly support certain favored con-
testants.
l believe that if only votes were
counted which had had been pur-
chased through the efforts of con-
testants that the result of the contest
would have been different from that
resulting from the actions of the man
agement to which objection is taken.
Yours very truly,
SARAH X. BUCK.

Maui Women's Club

Now that the Fair is over. club
members as well as other residents of
Maui can feel freer to plan and ex.
ecute other activities. The Fair was
a great success, and we are all glad
to have had some hand in it, and
much credit is due those who en-.
gineered it; it did take time and
thought, however, and necessitated a
cessation of the ordinary routine,
which will now be resumed.
Mauue May Babcock is gaining pro
%r.inence in Honolulu daily, and Maui
is fortunate in that she is expected
here on December 3rd to give a re-
cital, and then to appear on the 5th
at the monthly club meeting. Fur
Their details will appear in this col
m later.
At the last meeting of the Educa-
tional Department of the club, the
suggestion was made that anyone hav
Ing furniture suitable for use in
school cottages either lend or give
it for that purpose. Many of the
teachers are living amidst very
meagree furnishings, and the use of
additional articles of furniture would
be greatly appreciated by them. This
is an opportunity for Maui people to
do a very kind act and at the same
time, perhaps, thin out seldom or
never used ufrniture.
The meeting of the Home Econom-
les Department which was to have
been held Friday of this week has
been postponed to a day that will be
announced later.

In Il year distinguished so far for
duilness and inactivity in the finan

spicuous day. Price changes were
notably slight. and the course Of
fluctuations was singularly free of new
significance. The. market has tenn
! sccaYily ceased to be the arena where
financial opinion from all parts of the
country and the world meets and
clashes; it has become instead for
the time being a mere romping place

The stock opened at 45 and closed at

quoted as high as 65% and the low

has sold as high as 581a. From the
financial district no definite opinions
regarding the future relations Of the

dition into which prices worked them
selves. After an early decline. wheat

was followed by a rise of 90 to %

The persistent weakness in Interna-
tional Paper has puzzled followers of
the market since publication of the
company's annual report, showing more
than $50 share on the common stock.
Stocks of some of the Canadian paper
companies traded in on the Montreal
and Toronto stock exchanges have been
sold heavily during the last few days,
and it was intimated yesterday that
some Of the recent selling of Interna-
tional Paper may have been for the
account of Canadian interests. Philip
I. Dodge, president, took occasion to
deny reports that the company is con-
templating new financing in the form
of $10,000,000 short-term notes, to take
care of bank loans. Owing to pres
ent conditions" he said, "the company
is a fairly heavy borrower at the banks,
but no note issue is authorized or con-
tempated."

Pacific 61s per cent fifteen year bonds
for providing funds for meeting the
s215,000,0o0 maturity of next Julv will
be offered publicly on Monday next,
the bankers in charge of the opera
ton said yesterday they did not know
definitely as yet when the offering
would be made. This would depend en-
tirely, it was said, when the Interstate
Commerce Commission gives It's appro-
val of the plan. The program is to
offer the bonds at 9s1s, which would
make the yield approximately 67s per
cent. Everett B. Sweezy, Of the First
National Bank, and George Whitney
and William Ewing, Of Morgan & Co.,
returning from tour Of the
West in the interests of the issue, re-
port that they find sentiment favorable,
and they were quoted in Chicago ad-
vices yesterday as informing Western
bankers that they expected no difficulty
in disposing of the bonds. The issue
is the largest single corporate opera

Low Priced Oils in Favor

Much of yesterdays speculative &C
tivity on the Stock Exchange was con-
fined to the low priced oil stocks. in
Guiding Middle States, lnvincible,
Transcontinental and Sinclair. Buy
ing of these issues was helped by the
recent increase of 25 cents barrel in
the price Of crude and the belief ex-
pressed in some quarters that this ad
vance is the prelude of others to fol-
low. Considerable Importance was also
attached to the renewed activities of
the Standard Oil toward acquiring new
acreages. Announcement was made
that the Louisiana Oil Refining Com
pany, subsidiary Of 1nvincible OIL
had started two wells on it's Louisiana
holdings. The locations are approxi
mately a quarter of mile north by
east of the so-called Smitherman dis
covery we'll, which came in a few
