 NOM DE PLUME

The new Overland prices reflect directly the low operation cost rec ords which are being made by own CTS throughout the country. Over land owners in a number of cities have held contests during the past six months and have demonstrated that the Overland is rightly called the economy car.'
 The most recent owners contest was held by 40 owners in Fort Wayne, Ind. These owners established a grand average of 30.56 miles to the gallon of gasoline First prize was won by A. w. Grosvenor. whose car ran 36.S miles, second prize being won by Mrs. A. B. vanMeter, who drove her Overland 35.6 miles.
 Sixteen awards were made and every driver in the money scored at least s2 miles to the gallon. In a similar contest in Indian apolis recently 66 owners competed, making a grand average of well over 25 miles to the gallon. Overland owners Of Carbondale. Pa, in the run which took them over Moosic noun tain, 2,210 feet high, showed an aver age of 24.3 miles, first prize being won with a score of 36.1 miles. The great economy of the Overland 1 in actual performance Is a direct re- flection of it's low initial cost. The new prices of the Overland set new low records for quality cars. These prices, f. o. b. factory, are: Touring, s595; roadster, s595: coupe, sS50, and sedan, $S95. The prices represent a reduction of 43 per cent in the past | year.
 The new series Overland Is one oi the lowest priced thrAe-speed trans
 mission cars ever placed upon the American market. Its high quality 1 of material and excellent workman ship are widely recognized. The new series, moreover, has electric ights and starter, demountable rims, cur tains that open with the doors. baked

FARMER -URbAN|TE
 NOW IN UNISON

rt has been remarked that a New Yorker is a bigger hick on an Iowa farm than an Iowa farmer is on Broadway. It is all due to the differ ence in viewpoint.
 But there is one thing upon which the tastes of city man and farmer coincide much more closely than most city folks realize, and that is the mo- tor car. The man who thinks that the farmer does not appreciate smart ness and beauty in automobiles lacks completely in an understanding of those who run the country's biggest business.
 among farmers proves that the farm CT does care for smartness and beau ty." says MT. H. M. Jewett, president of the Paige-Detroit Motor Car com pany. People try to tell us that the Paige with it's beauty of design and finish and its smart appointments is not a farmer automobile.'
 We have found that human na- ture is pretty much the same every where and that the appreciation of beauty runs through a considerable proportion of all humans. regardless of where they may happen to live or I how they may earn their living. So we try to build an automobile that besides giving long and honest serv- vice at reasonable cost will please the eye, satisfy the most cultured taste, and so give complete and per
 manent satisfaction. We find that such car appeals to farmer and city
 man alike"

figures opposite the sedan and coupe.
 h August of 1920 the sedan, now selling at $S95, sold for s1675. and the coupe, now selling at $S50, sold for $1525. The new low costs were made possible through the installa- ton of new manufacturing methods and by the low costs of raw materials on the purchasing contracts signed this month by Willys- Overland com pany.
 In commenting upon the new prices, John N. Willys said: We are gratified at being able to make these new low figures. When We sold the Overland in 1916 at $665 we thought we had just about hit the bottom in the matter of price. But we have held to Overland standards and now, because of better production meth ods. we can sell the car, f. o. b. Toledo, to our dealers at S595. Tn no way have we eliminated from the car a feature that would make it less of a sturdy car than it always has been.'

A blowout patch does not unite itself with the rubber stock in a tire according to Smith. It remains sep arate, and. during the warping that takes place while the tire is in mo- ton, chafes against the ragged edges of the cut in the casing In time the hole reaches such proportions that it becomes difficult if not impossible to repair.
 When a tread cut is responsible for the blow out. Miller tire men say the result is usually clean cut hole. Severe bruises ordinarily produce ragged hole. Where the fabric is raveled or torn apart. fabric separa- tion is often the cause.
 The standard make tires offered the motorist today will not blow out in their prime if they are treated with care. Driving over broken glass into curbs, into road holes ano against rocks is usually responsible for loss of proper mileage. The saf' est way is to have your tires in spected regularly by a tire man. Hs can eradicate the cause of future trouble before it is too late.

EASY ID BACK UP
 TITAN BATTERY
 SAYS M. \. MOODY

Guaranteeing a battery to perform satisfactory service in every respect for Is months may seem like an all most impossible stunt for any battery man to do, according to many motor ists, but that is what the Titan Bat tery company offers the motorist when he purchases Titan battery.
 'The confidence we have in Titan batteries" says Marshall A. Moody, of the Titan Battery company, s.is such that we are willing to gamble with any car owner, no matter where he uses his car or under what con- ditions. We have Titan batteries that have not required water in months They are right on the job, day in and month out, and of the hundreds we have sold here in the Salt River val ley we have the first one yet to re- place on account of unsatisfactory service"
 Moody states that If any car owner has Titan battery that fails in any respect whatever to perform the func- tions of battery he will be taken care of immediately upon making the fact known, and if the battery is not satisfactory new one will replace it free of charge.

SAYS BLOWOUT PATCH |S ONLY FUR EMERGENCY

Trying to make a blowout patch do the job of a permanent repair is a good way to ruin tires,' says Bill Smith of the Miller Rubber company. The tire patch is a first aid treat ment to meet emergencies but as soon after the blowout as possible 1t should be removed and a permanent repair made Unless this is done, the casing will have oue waaS spot that Is constantly growing weaker"

FORD SALES JUMP 50 PER GENT IN
 ONE WEEK ALONE

Ed Rudolph received a telegram from the Ford Motor company's Los Angeles branch last Thursday stat ing that since the recent price re- duction Ford cars and trucks sales have jumped 50 per cent. The tele- gram is as follows:
 Branch telegraphic reports indi- cate daily retail sales of Ford cars and trucks increased 50 per cent the first week since price reductions, with corresponding reductions of the dealers stocks. Marked shortage, particularly of the enclosed types of cars is already being felt in many sections. fulfilled orders for all types of Ford cars and trucks are rapidly accommodating, as production has not been increased over the regular monthly schedule of 100000 cars"

Sales Tax Scheme
Defeated by Big
Vote In Senate
Defeat of First of Proposed
Amendments so Decisive as
To Indicate Other Similar
Ones Will Fail.
ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON, Nov. 4-Senator
Smoot's proposal for a sales tax to
replace or reduce large number of
other taxes included in the revenue
measure that was passed by the
house and is now under consideration
of the senate appears doomed. BY a
vote of 43 to 25 the senate last night
defeated his proposal for a one per-
cent sales tax. The democrats voted
solidly against his proposal and the
vote is so decisive as to be consider
ed to seal the fate of two other sales
tax plans that are pending.
The proposal defeated last night
was for a one percent tax on manu-
factured goods where sales are over
$4,000 annually and a general turn
over tax of one half percent where
sales exceed the same amount. The
plans included ten percent instead
of 15 percent corporation tax and the
repeal of many miscellaneous taxes.
His original plan calls for general
manufacturers sales tax of three per-
cent with certain exceptions.

Nationwide Strike in
Coal Fields Is Near
ASSOCIATED PRESS

INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. efforts to
avoid a nationwide coal strike as a
result of the decision of Federal
Judge Anderson enjoining the main
tenance of the "check off system"
whereby dues of union miners were
deducted from their pay by the en-
ploying companies for the unions are
being considered"
Reports received from the Associ-
ated Press correspondent at Pitts
burg, Penn, said 10000 would walk
out in the bituminous field next
month if the check out system is abol-
ished. If the executive board of that
district acts upon advice the strike
will be confined to those companies
that abolish the check off.
Advices from Athens, Ohio, said
5000 had Joined the strike in the Ohio
field and from Springerville, Illinois,
1t was reported that 1900 had struck
in that district.
United Mine Workers officials here
said this morning they did not anti
cipate any great spread of the un-
authorized strike that has been start
ed and that the unions are awaiting
actual discontinuance of the check off
system before authorizing a strike.

CHIlDS-LANGWITH

In one of the most beautiful we'd
ding ceremonies seen on Kauai in
many years, Miss Eleanor Langwith
and C. S. Childs were married at the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. L. D. Larsen
at Kilauea last Saturday evening, re-
ports the Garden Island of last week.
The wedding took place at o'clock.
The ceremony was performed by
Father Huber.
The Larsen house was beautifully
decorated for the occasion. A speci-
al altar was built in the large living
room where the wedding rites were
performed, Mrs. Catherine Woods
playing the wedding march as the
happy couple marched up to the al
tar.
Miss Langwith is well known on
Kauai. For two years she was well
fare worker at Kilauea plantation.
She later transferred to Maui where
she was in charge of the childrens'
welfare work on several plantations.
Mr. Childs is the head worker Of
the Alexander House Settlement. He
has been on Maui for several years
'and has made many friends for him
self on all the islands.
After a short honeymoon spent at
the Larsen's mountain house at Ko-

Slow Progress at
Conference Seems
Likely At Outset
America Has Plan But Other
Delegations Will Probably
Want to Submit 1t to Their
Home Governments.
ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON, Nov. 4-Opening
day of the conference for the limita-
tion of ornaments will see the pres
entation of concrete American plan
for armament erductions and con-
sideration of such Far-Eastern sub
jects as may arise, if the expectations
are realized. The saline features of
the American plan have been estab-
lished but details have not yet been
determined.
There is reason to believe the Am
erican suggestions will be sufficiently
far reaching to convince the con-
ferees that it is not a problem that
any nation can solve unassisted and
that they will find it necessary to
submit the program to their govern
ments for long study before determin-
ing upon course. Should the Am
erican proposals prove unacceptable
it is believed the Americans will in
vite others to present concrete coun-
ter proposals.
American Plan
Indications are the American plan
will include set of maximum reduc-
tion figures. No official is willing
to reveal the details of the plan but
there is an apparent desire to define
at the outset the extent to which the
United States is willing to go. The
impression that such a method will
not lead to an immediate agreement
Is strengthened by the apparent in
tention of the powers to pursue an op-
posite course by setting high :igl, e
as the measure of armament they con-
slider necessary for their own prolec-
tion.
AS an instance of this Japan has
suggested the necessity of maintain
ing navy equal to any that may be
Sent into her sphere which, it is safe
to say, will be we'll above her present
power.
1t is considered certain that arma-
ments will be the first subject to be
taken up but it is expected that dip
lOmatic questions will develope almost
simultaneously, thus preventing the
pursuit of a program of consecutive
subjects and necessitating the consid-
GRAFTON of such subjects as they arise.
Americans consider it likely that Far
Eastern questions may be pushed for
ward sharply as soon as replies are
made to Americas armament propo-
sails.
Will Want to Explain
Naturally the powers will desire to
give reasons for their attitudes which
may swing the discussions from arma-
ments to the causes for armaments.
Officials today reiterated the deter
mination of the United States to keep
negotiations as to the Far East as far
in the background as possible at first.
Hughes is expected to confer with
newspaper correspondents daily as
officials desire to give intelligent pub
lie opinion ample opportunity to exert
it's influence.
It is reported that the Japanese
delegates desire such a discussion of
ornaments before any of the Far East
ern questions are raised else it is con-
sidered by them possible that there
may be brought up difficulties which
may delay negotiations.
President Harding today formally
received three of the delegations, she

number of agricultural laborers in
the Hawaiian Islands, by virtue of
which every principal industry, upon
the maintenance of which American
dominance depends, is endangered.
THAT il is our earnest belief that
the conditions now prevalent justify
and require the enactment of the
measure now pending before Con-
gress relating to immigration of
laborers to Hawaii, under the direct
control of the President and the secre
tary of labor, or some measure afford
ing similar relief, if American sup
remacy in Hawaii is to be success
fully and normally maintained.
"Third-we find that in respect to
every obligation incident to state
hood, imposed by law, such as the
payment of federal taxes, customs
and internal revenues, subsection to
military draft laws and all other laws
applying generally to the several
states. Hawaii is included.
THAT during the war government
officials and civil organizations of the
mainland treated Hawaii as being up
on the same plane of obligation with
the states of the Union, to make pro
postal savings stamps, Red Cross, Y.
M. c. A, relief of Europe and every
patriotic and philanthropic appeal for
money and service.
THAT such appeals were fully and
loyalty responded to by the people
of Hawaii, they going over the top
in every instance, well up in the lead
in percentage of excess over the
quota assigned, and in promptness of
response.
Hawaii Unfairly Treated
THAT Notwithstanding this continu-
GUS policy of assigning obligations
and imposing burdens, upon a basis
pro rata with that of the several
states of the Union, Congress and de-
ton have been and still are system
atically and persistently excluding
Hawaii from participation in the ben
efits under appropriation bills which
provide for payment pro rata to all
the states; such, for example, as ap-
preparations for roads, for education
and all other bills of a similar general
character.
THAT, in our opinion this policy
is unjust and inequitable and should
be changed so that Hawaii shall be
permitted to share in the privileges
and benefits incident to it's connection
with the American Union upon the
same basis that is bears the burdens
and is subject to the obligation Incl
dent thereto"

American Legion to
Give Free Armistice
Ball Saturday Night

Maui Post American Legion will OBJ
serve Armistice Day with a public
ball which will be held in the Terri
torial Building at Kahului, Saturday
evening, November 12. No tickets
are to be sold, no admission will be
charged and the public is cordially
invited to attend.
On Maui the Legion is scattered,
comparatively few being in any one
community which makes difficult a
general gathering and general pro-
gram of celebration or observance in
the day time. That difficulty is en-
hanced by the fact that the planta-
tions are not shutting down and grant
ing a holiday next Friday, Armistice
Day. A ball, free to the public, at a
time when it would not interfere
with ordinary vocations appeared to
the Legion the best that could be
offered under such circumstances.
Having decided upon a ball it was
found the building was promised to
the Womans Guild of the Church of
the Good Shepherd for that evening
but the latter organization readily
stepped aside and took a later date
for the holding of it's bazaar and
dance, for which generous action the
Legion extends its thanks.
Special, patriotic decorations for
the hall are being arranged, there
will be good music and the members
of the Legion expect to make the al
fair one of the largest ever held on
Maui, emphasizing it's informality in
the way of invitations and that the
Legion is the host at an Armistice
ball which is not the annual dance
of the legion and is not to be confused
with it. 1t is a free, public ball.
In answer to the proposal for Le-
gion services in Kahului Church, the
members of the legion urge members
of the Protestant faith to attend the
community services there tomorrow
night but were unable to take charge
of arrangements as suggested for the
reason that there are numbers of
faiths represented in the membership
of the legion on this Island.

Judge Burr Is Wanted
To Relieve Shortage
In Honolulu Courts

In answer to a letter from Judge
Kemp asking if and when he could
go to Honolulu to sit in Circuit Court
of the First Circuit and relieve the
has been complaining. Judge l.. l..
Burr expects to leave for the capital
city tomorrow night. He replied that
he could leave at that time and ex-
poets reply from Judge Kemp to-
morrow morning.
For some time past complaint has
appeared in the Honolulu papers that
court business was being held back
and delayed by the absence of judges
who were away on vacation, that
there were not sufficient judges in the
circuit to carry on the business, that
it was accommodating and piling up. So
it has been necessary to call on judges
from the other circuits, sort of an
emergency labor" arrangement for
the courts to aid in the continuance
of the grind of the mill of justice, for
skilled mental workers just as sugar
plantations need unskilled manual
workers.
Judge Burr said yesterday that all
jury cases that were ready for trial
have been disposed of and that the
session for which the trial jurors were
called has been completed so that on
Wednesday he dismissed the juror for
the rest of such session. This prob
ably means that they are dismissed
for the term as it is likely new
jury will have been drawn before it
is necessary to call jurors together
again.
No information has been furnished
Judge Burr as to how long his services
are likely to be required in the First
Circuit.
