Mixup in Press
Congress Plans
Proposal to Shorten Stay in
Islands to a Week Results
in Hurried Departure of
L. A. Thurston.

At the request of the Honolulu ex-
ecutive committee of the Worlds
Press Congress, Lorrin A. Thurston
left for San Francisco by the steam
ship Manoa Wednesday.
The purpose of Mr.. Thurston's hur-
ried trip to the mainland, says The Ad
vertiser, is to try and straighten out
a mixup in connection wit hthe trans
portation arrangements for the dele
gates to the press congress to be held
in Honolulu next October.
According to information furnished
The Advertiser, it had been definitely
decided that the sessions of the con-
gress would last for two weeks, allow
ing ample time for the delegates to
visit all the islands, us well as to
stage a pretty complets entertain
ment program in Honolulu, in addi-
tion to the regular Official program.
Negotiations have been in progress
for several months to secure a vessel
from the United StaleS Shipping
Board for the purpose of taking the
delegates to the other islands.
Out of a clear sky has come an an
nouncement by DR.. Walter Williams,
president of the congress, that, i'll or
ueT W meet Ile 6AlSeHClto vi u dlio
portation it will be necessary TO ,ut
the sessions down to seven days, of
which three days will be spen on i4a-
wali. This would leave OILY Tour
GAYS to carry out the official pro; ram
and make it necessary to leave out
Maui entirely and limiting entertain
ment in Honolulu to the evenings of
the four days.
DR.. Williams, however, has asked
for suggestions, and the executive
committee promptly suggested that
instead of reducing the congress to
one week, it be extended to three
weeks. This would enable the dele
gates to come to Honolulu by the
steamships Matsonia and Ventura,
leaving San Francisco October 4, and
return by the Maui November 2.
Those who would have to return earl
ier, could do so by the Manoa.
If this can be brought about it will
afford ample time to carry through
the program arranged for without hur-
rying the delegates.
The executive committee acted by
wiring to DR.. Williams, proposing the
extension, as well as to Fred Halton,
tourist agent in Chicago and well
known in Honolulu, to get in confer
ence with DR.. Williams at Columbia,
Mo-, and by arranging to send Mr..
Thurston to San Francisco this morn
ing to try and arrange the deal with
the Matson Navigation company.

Librarian Engaged
For County Library;
Comes From Mainland

Maui County Public Library will
have Miss Marion Morse for it's first
librarian. She accepted the position
in cablegram received the first of
this week. She is now at Yreka, Cal
ifornia, and for the past two or three
years has been in the Siskiyou County
Library.
Some time since the managers of
Maui County Library offered the posi-
tion to an applicant who was highly
recommended but before the letter of
appointment reached her she had an
offer elsewhere at $500 year more
than the Maui offer, and withdrew her
application. The managers then took
the subject up with the Library of
Hawaii and the offer to Miss Morse
and acceptance by her followed. She
has been asked to come to Maui as
near the first of September as she
can arrange.
Miss Morse is known to Miss Rob
son who was on Maui several months
ago and talked to the Woman's Club
on the subject of county library.
w uCh hioo ItODoOu lClt Sdiiioi
Miss Morse took her position and
Miss Robson came to know her be-
fore leaving. She recommends Miss
Morse highly and the latter has
credentials which speak highly of her
abilities and qualifications.
Under the County Library Law the
librarian must be certificated and
must also be certified by the trustees
of the Library of Hawaii. In the Is
lands, so far as is known, there are
no Librarians who meet the require
ments of the law unless they have
come from the mainland. there having
been no opportunity for the neces-
sary training and educational prepara-
tion here.
1t is the purpose of the managers
to make no purchases of books and
to take no steps toward the opening
of the county library until the arriv-
al of the librarian. Mr.. and Mrs.
Case will continue to occupy the pre-
misses purchased by the county until
that time. Then the necessary altera-
tions will be made and steps taken
for its opening as quickly as may be
possible.

Cane Gatherer And
Loader Invented At
Eva Reported Success

A cane gathering machine, which it
is claimed will in large measure eli
inmate much of the heavy labor re-
quired on the plantations and perhaps
lessen the number of laborers has
been invented by o. st. John Gilbert
and a patent is being applied for to
cover the ideas of the machine re-
ports the Honolulu Star-Bulletin.
For many years attempts have been
made to invent and construct machin-
cry to economically load sugar cane
from the fields into cars for transpor-
tation to the mill. Some of the ma
chimes constructed for the purpose
have been absolute failures; others
have been partially successful.
Over 20 years ago, st. John Gilbert
constructed and tried out at EVA
plantation a slat carrier cane load
ing device which, while pronounced
mechanically perfect, did not place a
sufficient amount of cane in each car.
Since the labor strike of last year.
Mr.. Gilbert has again turned his at
tention to the subject and has succeed
ed in having a light knife invented
and attached to his original slat carri-
or machine of 20 years ago. Tn
KnlIe Will cut tic Cdhc III any iNhS' "a
from three inches to three feet and
thus enable the carrier to put suffici-
ent cane in each car. The carrier is
set on a tractor and can be any
length desired within certain limits.
Blue prints of the carrier with the
knife were submitted to the invention
committee of the H. S. p. A. last May.
The knife is direct action, the circ
lar knife of the earlier machine be-
ing abandoned on account of the loss
of cane on each cut of the knife, no
matter how thin the knife might be.
Since this scheme was submitted
Mr.. Gilbert has decided that ma
chine to be successful should prac-
tically eliminate all cane loading labor
and to this end has designed ma
chine for this specific purpose.
The machine is to be attached to
the front of tractor and is expected
to gather up all the cane and deliver
it alongside cars. A machine especial
ly constructed for picking up cane is
already in extensive use in Cuba.
The design of Mr.. Gilberts cane
gatherer is adjustable to any desired
angle-the cane can be gathered and
carried forward, or it can be raked
up, or a combination of both methods
may be used
Each arm is furnished with safety
