DENIES JAPANESE
ARE Peril IN HAWAII
Baron Kanda Calls for a Bet
ter Understanding With the
United States.
Ry tie AsSncia ted Press

BY the AsSocia ted Press
HONOLULU, T. H, September 2 (by
MaiD D.-Japanese and Americans
should make the economic factor in
Japanese relations in the Hawaiian
Islands a lever for better understand
ing, instead of permitting it to be-
come a cause of hostility and misun-
derstanding, Baron N. Kanda of the
Japanese house of peers and one of
the foremost educators in the Japa-
pese empire. declared here during his
service as delegate to the pan-Pacitc
educa tional conference.
The economic penetration of
Hawaii by Japanese does not consti-
tute a source of peril to the United
States" Baron Kanda said, in COM
menting upon a dispatch from Toxic,
quoting a letter written to Japan by
Takeo Yanaka, member of the Japa-
nese diet party, which spent some
time here recently on its way to
Washington. Mr.. Yanakas letter,
printed in the Toxic Jill Shimpo,
said that the authority and influence
of America ARE powerless in Hawaii
before the labor power and essential
strength of our countrymen unless
America succeeds in driving the
Japanese altogether from the Ha-
waiian Islands, because the islands
have been built up by the strength of
the Japanese"
Mr.. Yanaka's letter also expressed
the opinion that while the United
States has too many soldiers in Ha-
waii, the Japanese residents of the
islands welcome them because the
building of barracks to accommodate
them furnished the Japanese with
work.
Concerning this opinion Baron Kan
da said:
This is nothing more than the ex-
preston of a business mans point of
view One cannot expect a man who
has dollars always in his head to take
an Intelligent view of problems which
affect the destinies of nations. For
my own part L did not know of these
fortifications and preparations-1f L
may use such a warlike term-on the
part of the United States against an
enemy that does not exist. Neither
have l time to give attention to the
business mans viewpoint concerning
problems whose solution AFFECT the
welfare of the race. Business men are
the same the world over, after all
Perhaps the shipbuilders in American
or Britain or Japan might welcome
another war, because for them II
would mean prosperity and great
amounts of money. But their view is
purely selfish and is not the view
point of the statesmen or of the lover
of humanity How deplorably they
miss the world significance OF the IS
sues confronting the nations now.
.'The very thought or idea OF war
is so preposterous that DO not even
take any interest in II.

A house that is built on the square
design always assures the owner that
no space has been wasted. Conse-
quently such a home is, in the long
run, one of the most economical to
build. The eight-room dwelling that
is pictured today is an excellent ex-
ample of home that is modelled after
this plan, and the builder of this home
will delight in the fact that there are
no extra corners or small cut-up
rooms which require extra furniture
or some particular and original meth
cd of treatment.
All the eight rooms in this design
are good sized rooms and they are
happily arranged. Each room has
plenty of wall space also, so that
the furnishing of this house lends
itself admirably to a cheerful. de-
ughtful arrangement. On the ground

NEW CONSTRUCTION
CUTS DOWN FIRE RISK

Announcement of an advanced type
of frame construction for houses de-
signed to reduce by so per cent the
danger of fires was made today by
representatives of the lumber indus
try here. The announcement is char
acterized as the lumber industry's
contribution to fire prevention week,
which begins October 9.
THE frame house that is built right
is fire resistive for all ordinary risks"
the statement points out. "Inasmuch
as frame construction as now per-
fected is fully so per cent less liable
to combustion than similar homes
built ten or fifteen years ago. the
frame house certainly carries no spe-
cial hazards for the occupants"
When the properly built frame
house does catch fire, it is almost
impossible for the conflagration to
spread rapidly because of fire stops
placed throughout the building and
because the materials which might
ordinarily communicate fire to wood
are properly insulated.
These fire stops not only keep fire
from spreading rapidly, but they re-
duce by so per cent the danger of
fires starting from within the build
ing itself. Such construction adds
very little to the original cost of the
building and gives all reasonable i'm
munity against fire destruction"

Lots of Trained Animal Displays

markahle illustration of what can
be accomplished by skill and persist
ency in training dumb animals These
three dissimilar animal groups go
through their clever stunts with the
precision of soldiers on parade. and
with an eagerness that suggests that
they actually enjoy their work
This, however, is only one of many
clever trained animal displays an
lnounced for the John Robinson cir
Gus. There are three herds of won
derful performing elephants; there
are funny little borros that buck un-
der the weight of a rider Just like
genuine Wild West bucking bron-
chos; there are ponies that go spin
ming on whirling table like equine
! tops; there are monkeys that ride
dogs, and dogs that that ride ponies
and balloons that drive tiny Roman
chariots drawn by swiftly-speeding
CANNES and dogs that balance on
their hind legs on swiftly-swaying
swings, and other exhibitions of
trained animal intelligence to delight
the youngsters and to interest the
Srownups.
There are also thrills galore. There
are air-acrobats who go flying across
the great arena; gymnasts who per-
form every known feat of acrobat
ism; bareback equestriennes, whirl-
wind riders, an entire congress of
aerial butterfly dancers, and, not
least, fifty clowns, to slip an occas-
ional bit of burlesque and jolIity into
the varied program. There are times,
it is announced, when the three

New Rail Wage Cut
Believed Contemplated

The belief is gaining ground in rail
road circles that steps will be taken
in the near future with the object
of bringing about another reduction
in wages. Commenting on statements
that the movement will be we'll under
way within the next four to six months,
executives declared yesterday that this
was their view.
The main idea In starting ar agita-
ton for lower wages is to bring them
back to the level that prevailed prior
to May l, 1920, when the 20 per cent
increase was allowed by the railroad
administration. Since that time cut
of II per cent has been put into effect
so that the next reduction asked for
will De in the neighborhood of to 10
per cent.
A second wage reduction, in the
opinion of railroad men, would be fol-
lowed Immediately by a decrease in
freight rates. Opinions differ, how
ever. as to the form the rate reduc-
ton should take. Some take the view
that it should be straight horizontal
cut. while others are of the opinion
that any drop in freight rates should
follow policies already adopted in max
ing adjustments to meet the needs OF
certain localities.

Seek to Intervene
In Railroad Dispute

The National Association of Manu-

ISOLATION and the National Erectors
Association have filed with the United
States Railroad Labor Board petition
70 intervene in the dispute between
the Federated Shop Crafts and the
Pennsylvania Railroad, now pending
before the Railroad Labor Board. The
issues involved in that case arose OUT
of the endeavor of the railroads To
negotiate agreements with their am
ploTees IN substitution for the So
called national agreement negotiated
during the Railroad Administrator
The Pennsylvania undertook to az
certain who should represent its EN-
pioyees in negotiation with it's officers
through a ballot. To this the unions
OF the shop crafts objected and sent
out q counterballot warning all shop
craft employees not to vote the COM
pany's ballot. The company then pro-
ceeded to negotiate with the indivi-
dual representatives selected under
the ballot to which the officers of the
shop crafts objected and the case is
now before the Labor Board TO as
certain whether the carrier had COM
rhed with the decision OF the Board
IN the selection of representatives..

The Tribune prints each day the mo-
tttrity dates of all active bonds quoted
on the Neac ork Stock Exchange. The
return on bond to the investor depends
upon three factors: the rate of interest
the security bears, the market price
and the distance of the maturity date.
To figure the precise yield or bond 1t
is necessary to use yield tables, but the
approximate yield can roughly be figured
out By the folloloing formula: Dipide
the closing quotation on bond into
the rate of interest it pays, ord the re-
suit aoiU be the annual return. II the
bond as selling beloao par you mast
cVo'o also for the appreciation Of the
principal. To do this subtract the mar
ket quotation from par, or 100, and d.
vide the remainder By the number Of
years the bond has TO run before ma
turity For example, if per cent
bond Is selling at 90 and has ten gears
to run, the annual return tciU be 6.66
per cent. The difference between par
and the market price aviN be 10 points,
snttrocti'g 80 from 100. Diuiding ten
points BY ten gears, the quotient 4oul be
1. This figure is to be added to COG.
Dhich IS the annual return, and the re-
suit, 766 per cent, avail give you the
approximate yield.
