Appreciation For Work
Done is Sent B. @. Wist

Lahaina regrets losing B. o. Wist
who leaves Kamehameha III school
to become principal of the Territorial
Normal school at the opening of the
next school year. Expressions of
such regret, mingles with congratula-
tions, and words of appreciation for
services on Maui are contained in a
letter which has been sent him and
which speaks for itself.
"Mr. B. o. Wist,
Berkeley Calf.
"My Dear Mr.. Wist:
-"At the graduation exercises last
week In the armory | was requested
by those present to write to you and
express the sincere appreciation of
the Lahaina community for your six
years of splendid service in our school
and community. You have not only
maintained your reputation as a
schoolman but have willingly and en-
Enthusiastically turned your hand to
every good work All our Local en-
terprises will miss you and we all
feel sense of loss at your going
Your regular attendance at the
church and your readiness to recogn.
ize your spiritual responsibilities have
been a constant source of pleasure
to all the Christian minded in our
community
I'VE begrudge very much your go
ing to the Normal school but are con-
fident that the some qualities that
have won you the respect and con-
fident of all of us here will win you
friends in Honolulu.
"At any rate, if you don't enjoy the
climate of Oahu, Maui would like to
have you back again.
"On behalf of the Lahaina Commun-
ity an dwith the warmest personal
regards,
yours sincerely,
"W. A. TATE"

SENATOR RICE
TELLS OF TRIP
TO WASHINGTON
Selection fo harrington Deter
mined When Harding Was
Elected; Rehabilitation Bill
Chances.

Senator Harold w. Rice, who went
to Washington as member OF the
commission on Hawaii legislation, re-
turned from the national capitol We'd
nesday evening and yesterday gave
to Maui News the following signed
statement regarding his trip:
I'VE had a very interesting trip to
Washington. 1t was a great pleasure
to meet the president and the mem
Der of his new administration and
also members of congress and the
senate
There is very friendly feeling
towards Hawaii in Washington and
We believe our friends there will en-
deavor to assist Hawaii materially.
] should like to emphasize the state
ment that the appointment of w.
Il. Harrington as governor was prac-
tically settled upon President Hard
ing's election, and he will be the
presidents personal representative
here.
Rehabilitation Bill
"The Rehabilitation Bill had very
favorable hearings in both the House
and Senate. | understand Mr.. A. w.
Carter is still opposing the Bill. Mr..
Mcclellan reported to our commits
sion that he was authorized by Mr..
A. w. Carter to act for him, and up
on this representation, changes were
made in the Bill which he testified
before the committee of the senate,
met with the approval of Mr.. Carter
and that he would endorse the amend
ed bill.
"The labor commission is working
hard and if work counts, l believe
eventually we will get results from
it's endeavors at Washington, not
withstanding the reports of the hear
ings of this commission that have
come to Hawaii. The Prince, our del
egate, has certainly done good work
nothing but that which will be for
the best interest of every one here.
Business Conditions
Business conditions in the East
seem to be slowly on the mend. A
friend of mine estimated that manu-
featuring was bettering itself by about
a half of one per cent per week. 1t
was estimated that factories were do
ing from five to 60 percent of the
business that they had done last year
with probable average of 35 percent.
Mr.. Windsor White, head of the
White Automobile works, told me
that they were running less than SO
percent of the time.
Notwithstanding business condi-
tions, l do not believe there should
a hungry perosn in the United States
as the crops are going to be record
ones this year. The purchasing DOW
er of the dollar has increased so far
as food stuffs are concerned from 300
to 400 percent. The general concen-
sus of opinion throughout the east
was that labor could well afford to
take a 25 percent cut and still be
earning more in purchasing value
than they were last year, and in con-
sequence still would cut 25 percent
and then buildings would be started
and industry throughout the United
States would flourish more than ever
before in the history of our country"

GREAT PITY
Necessary For 10000
War Horses to be Kill
ed In The East.

Horse lovers throughout the coun-
try have been shocked by Colonial
Secretary Winston Churchill's an
nouncement that 10000 Army horses
in Mesopotamia are to be killed be-
cause il is too expensive to bring
them home
II was explained they are mainly
heavy draft horses for which there Is
no use in England and that had to be
fed on imported fodder. The near
est possible markets are India or
Egypt. but the difficulties and cost Of
transportation thence are said to be
prohibitive.
Shipping men say I, costs 5000 to
$3.50 to bring a horse from the East
to England, not counting horsemen's
wages.
The War Office view is that il Ia
better for the horse to be killed hu-
namely and scientifically than to be
left in the hands Of natives who
would not care for them properly.
and no one would suggest turning
them adrift in the desert.

Give Us Light.

The people of this country
are in a maze of doubt and
mystery over the millions of in
terest money that is due and
TO become due us on the ten
billions owed TO us by the al.
lied governments of Europe.
II is the peoples money. and
yet the people are the last ones
who are being afforded any
light upon the subject.
The London Times is consid-
cred the world over to be a
truthful paper. and the Times
in its financial news makes the
positive statement that arrange
ments are under way where
by the payment of interest is
to be delayed for a period of
fifteen years.
Our secretary of the treas
ury states otherwise. but at the
same time he pays out nearly
thirty-five millions of dollars
to the British government in
order to cancel a claim for
transporting American troops
and freight to France in British
ships. when by every rule of
right and justice he should
have caused that claim TO be
credited against the billions
the British government owes
US.
Thirty-five millions would
do wonders for the shameful
ly neglected sick and disabled
ex-service men in this country,
or it would furnish employ
ment and relief to many of our
idle millions of men who are
facing restitution and want.
but il was not used for either
Of these purposes. or for any
other legitimate American pur-
pose, so far as we can see.
Frankly. we do not under
stand it. and neither do the
people.
We disclaim any intention or
desire to attack the administra-
ton, for this is a time when We
need cooperation in readjust-
ment rather than criticism and
discord. but unless the secre-
tary Of the treasury can furnish
a legitimate and all-satisfying
reason for his surprising and
amazing action he is laying
the administration open TO seri-
Gus attack from republicans as
well as democrats.
We are Americans first, and
partisians afterwards.
