WATCH ABNORMAL SECRECY.

Long experience has taught me to
be suspicious OF prominent men who
hedge themselves about with abnor-
NAL secrecy.
When the truth comes out II usually
Is revealed that they had good reason
for wanting to remain In the dark.
Some hnanciers and business leaders
try to excuse their secretivcness by
saying, you can't trust any news

"In my forty years of business ex-
perience," Daniel Guggenheim' told
me the other day. 81 have never once
been willfully misrcpresented by any
newspaper reporters, nor has any re-

Levers & Cooke Makes
Departure For Maui

Interest from the big firms of Ho-
nolulu in Maui and her affairs is ever
welcomed by Maui folk and so it is
when a firm with. reputation of being
rather conservative enters an ex-
hibit at the Fair. Levers & Cooke
were a little late in getting in their
application and secured the last avail
able space through the closing up of
a narrow cross aisle. There the COM
pany is installing it's display today.
Mr.. Jack Rosemond and MI. Rob
bins Of the firm say that it is its in
tention to give the people of Maui a
chance to get better things in the
way of building materials from now
and Mr.. Peacock has been assign
ed to represent it in frequent visits
here. It is generally recognized in
the Islands that the stock the firm
carries is of the highest grade that
can be found in the Islands.

Kato Is Considered
One Of Strongest of
Japanese Delegates
PRESS

TOXIC, Oct. 6-Modesty and sim
plicity are the traits of Admiral T.
Kato, minister of marine, who has
been selected as one of the japanese
delegates TO the Washington confer
ences on limitations of armament.
1t was Admiral Kato's statement to
the Associated Press last year which
first let the world know taht Japan
was ready to discuss armament limi-
tations. AS evidence of that sinceri-
ty he announced that his country
would not necessarily insist upon the
completion of the greatly discussed
eight-eight program the mainten-
ance of eight dreadnaughts and eight
battle cruisers.
Kato is not only a seaman of
proven caliber, but also a statesman
of achievement. A conservative Jap
anese newspaper said he al handle
"all the problems that may conceiv-
ably be brought up at the conference
with as much intelligence and skill
as anybody else. But his strongest
recommendation is that of being a
man of decision who will not, hest
tate to assume necessary responsible
tiles at important moments without
ItltlCuCe W lllS liolIt SoNtlhhltht.
Kato is the real builder of Japan's
modern navy. He has been the head
of the navy since August 1915. Col
lapse of ministries leave him unaffect-
ed because his capacity is held to be
above all consideration of politics.
He was born in 1859 in Hiroshima
and after passing through the differ
ent grades of the service he took an
eminent part in the Russo-Japanese
war as the right hand officer of the
famous Admiral Togo. He was made
vice-admiral in 1908 and minister of
the navy in the Okuma cabinet.
His long services as minister makes
him the senior member of the cab
met next to the premier. A promin-
ent japanese said Admiral Kato has
a clear head, is mathematical and
we'll versed in international issues
upon which he possesses his W orr
ginal ideas.

Of Finding
Contamination For
Water Is Denied

Reports hat the carcass of a COW
was found in the water shed near the
source of supply for Maui High and
Grammar School which were in cir
culation last Friday afternoon and
Saturday were unfounded. The body
of the animal was found near the
Lowrey Ditch and in an entirely diff
ferent part of the country from where
the supply of water to the school is
secured.
Ready credence was given to the
report that a cows carcass had been
found where it would contaminate the
school water supply and complaint
was speedily made to George Weight
chief sanitary inspector of the board
of health on Maui. He says that de-
mands were made that he condemn
the schools water supply and order
the school closed. His investigation
showed the only foundation to the re-
port was that a dead animal had been
found somewhere else. Inspector
Weight also says that parents have
threatened to remove their children
from school unless another supply of
water be furnished. He was to look
the watershed over the first of the
week and his report will later be fur
nished to this paper.
Before the Hamakuapoko water sup
ply was approved by the board of
health there was an inspection made
and it was found potable. The report
published recently that a dead GOV
was found at that time was
On one inspection a live COW was
seer in the water shed.
Speaking of the Hamakuapoko wa
ter supply Mr.. Weight says that it
comes from a ditch which is covered,
is practically a tunnel, except where
it flows through some gulches. If the
supply had been described as coming
from a tunnel instead of the unfortun-
ate use of the word ditch" he thinks
no complaint would be made. AS to
the demand that he declare it unfit
for use and order the school closed,
he says there have been no indica-
lions that the water supply is not
potable nor has there been a case of
any disease in the school that could
possibly be attributed to it's supply of
water. On his inspection he will seek
to learn how many houses. are adj
jacent to the ditch above the outtake
for Hamakuapoko which is above the
hydro-electric plant. At this time he
is inclined to think that undue ankle
ty is being expressed on the subject.
Further inquiry %developes that the
supply for Hamakuapoko is quite as
good, apparently, as many other sup
plies that have received no comment
adverse to their use, perhaps better
than some. No workable plan has
been offered that appears so salts
factory as charging parents of chill
dren a small amount each month for
the purchase of distilled water and
cups or rather the voluntary payment
of small sums therefor.

Hoover Optimistic As
To Our Export Trade
ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK, Oct. 7-Addressing
the American manufacturers export
association last night Herbert Hoover
said in part:
Our industries have encountered a
serious stage in their existence but
conditions are growing easier and to-
day we are through the winter and in
the spring time of our recovery. We
have still a long way to go, however,
to get back to stability and we have
yet to pass through much adjustment
and reimbursement to reach prior
levels but we are evidently on the
road"
He cited the rise in prior bonds of
the federal reserve increased interest
rolls, increased production in coal and
steel and building materials as evil
dences of recovery but said there is
little hope of any complete national
recovery until exchange rates have
been stabilized.

Return Of Shipping
For Rivers Being
Managed in Europe
PRESS

PARIS, Sept. 13-(Associated Press
MaiD-Walker d. Hines, of New
York City, Arbitrator of River Ship
ping in Europe, who is about to re-
turn to the United States, says he
has found that the countries involved
in his redistribution of river craft
are showing a gratifying disposition
to cooperate in putting his decisions
into effect.
/. Mr.. Hines was Director-Genera of
railroads in the United States in 1919
and 1920 and quit hat post to accept
appointment by President Wilson to
his present position. He has just
been conducting a hearing in Europe
with reference to his decision given
August 2, allocating the shipping on
international rivers in Europe, such
as the Danube, Rhine and Elbe.
The hearing was attended by repre-
sentatives of Jugoslavia, Czecho.
Slovakia, Rumania, Germany, Austria
and Hungary.
In the course of a blief address at
the close of the hearing, Mr.. Hines
expressed his qualification to see
such a spirit of accord and his hope
for a speedy resumption of m
cial intercourse among the nations on
the Danube.
The Arbitrator's Danube decision
confirmed a large number of captures
made by Jugoslavia and Rumania
during the war, but directed that So
1874 tons of barges and certain other
boats which had been seized during
the war should be returned by those
two countries to Austria and Hun
gary.
Although the decision gave the
countries in question until October 2
to return these boats, the Arbitrator
was gratified to learn that J~ugoslavia
had already begun re-delivering the
boats and that Rumania was making
arrangements to make deliveries
promptly.
Mr.. Hines determination also re-
quired Germany, Austria and Hun
gary to cede 7O,S61 tons of barges
and $3.50 horsepower of tugs to
Czecho-Slovakia and to cede certain
passenger vessels to Czecho-Slovakia,
Jugo-Slavia and Rumania by Novem-
Der 2.
The three countries which are to
receive the boats readily acceded to
the suggestion made by Germany,
Austria and Hungary that it would
be in the interest of navigation on
the river, in order not to interfere
with the highly important movement
of crops during the fall, to postpone
the delivery of these boats until the
end of the navigation season, prob
ably some time in December.
Negotiations have also been under
way for raising a number of boats
sunk in the Danube during the war.
