DISCOVER SECRET CAVE
 LINKED WITH HISTORY
lBy International Ncws Servicel

By International News ServiCe)
 HONOLULU. Oct. 26.-Light has been thrown on some of the events connected with the subjugation of the Hawaiian Islands by Kameham cha the Great in the latter part of the eighteenth century through the recent discovery of cave arsenal in te great crater of Haleakala in Hawaii National Parw. The cave. which contains stone hatches and spearheads as well as a supply of the round stones used in slings, is be lieved to have lain untouched for over a century, or since the people of Maui fled down the slopes of Haleakala after failing to repulse the invading armies of Kamehameha
 At the present time the exact whereabouts of this underground storehOuse is held a secret by three Honolulu business men who believe themselves to be the only men in the islands aware of the caves To- cation. They plan to divulge their secret to the superintendent 0f the newly dedicated national park upon his appointment.

THE UNEMPLOYMENT CONFERENCE

We read that the unemployment conior"nc" plans am "ccouomic ~wVcy.' Ih" country needs am economic survey badly enough. Very little i. realized or known regarding the "so"n- tiaI relations between bed rock economic fact and ompIoymrut the relation between wages and total costs, tho present margin between thc maximum and minimum wage and the cost of living, and many other things Whlcl have bearing on employment and up"m pIoymcnt. We hear of five OF six millions of unemployed in the country but absolutely no large masses of people out of work are wis ibIr in any of our cities. Where there is so much smoke there must be some fire, and in the present conditions of business and indus try it would be indeed strange if there were not unemployment At the same time certain industries, such as the building industry, might be revived if the workers were willing to go to work at high wages now, under easy and more favorable conditions. If there were possible an economic survey which would show how much of the present unemployment Is vol untary, the result of absolutely meconomic pcrversity it would at least facilitate an ac- curate understanding of the subject.
 But the conference Is supposed to have been called to see if something cannot be done to re icvc unemployment It cannot relieve it by means of an economic survey, which certainly would require months, perhaps years. Yet it k evident that the president, who has the sue cess of the conference very much al heart, has no cNtravagant hopes regarding it's pos abilities as a worker of economic miracles. If the president himself k powcress to smtc the rock of production with the wand of his authority causing it to send forth streams of profitable employment, what can merely ad- visory body be expected to do! The answer, perhaps, is found in Mr. HarIng's own words:
 "FrankIy, it k difficult to know whether we have reached that rcdrock to which reaction runs before the upward course begins, but here are representatives of the forces which make for all we are or even can be, and your soundings ought to be reliable"
 Soundngs, indeed, are necessary The prcsi- dent further remarked that we are concerned not alone with the diminuion of unempov- m"nt, but are concerned lest it shall grow worse with the hardshipS of winter. This remark puts It up to the conference to be cNcocdingy prompt in its work and its deliberations tn der that requirmcnt, it cannot spend much time ln making soundngs. Ii k called upon for pointed, practical, immediate suggestions as to what can be done, before snow flies. to improve industrial conditions in America. Ii Is an eXacting task
