NEXT ENTERS POLITICS

With a Republican platform adopted in convention at Honolulu
and with three avowed candidates for the party nomination for del
egate to congress in the field, a warm primary election is at hand
and will soon be in full swing. AT the same time a somewhat novel
aspect is presented in the Democratic field since 'Link" McCandless
has eliminated himself and left the field clear for "Bil" jarrett nm
less some Kumalae or Atcherly shall arise to contend with tbe nros-
ent high sheriff.
AT this writing conditions seem to favor John Wise as the voters
choice for the Republican standard bearer. Senator Charles f. Kino
OF Honolulu has not been regarded as dangerous to Wise's chances
but Norman Lyman is to be reckOned with by the Wise forces. King
will draw some votes from Wise on Oahu, but Wise has m admitted
strength ON the Big island. Under such circumstances the votes of
Kauai and Maui will be the deciding factor.
Before the campaign opens it can be said that Wise apparenHv
leads the others ON Maui. He was on the stump here when Maui
had a candidate at the special election and his support of Baldwin
on the speaking platform won him friends he had not before. He
enters the campaign here better known than either of his rivals

Either OF the three candidates would be a satisfactory choice

THE REPUBLICAN PLATFORM

Comprehensive and constructive, a departure from the ordinary
cut and dried" declarations of party conventions is the Republican
platform which was adopted by the convention in Honolulu and is
published III full elsewhere in this issue of Maui News. 1t is as much
an outline OF legislative and governmental plans as it is a reaffirma-
ton OF the principles of the Republican party. Covering so wide
a hed 1t could not but be lengthy but it avoids generaGties and may
well have the perusal of every voter between now and election day
After a brief preamble and commentator of the national and
territorial administrations and of the work Of the delegate to con-
greSS it tersely tells of legislative achievements of the dominant
party, 1t takes up proposals in order among the important points being
a plank for a pension for the widow of Delegate Kuhio, insience on
recognition by congress and federal departments that Hawaii is
an integral part of the United States and as such entitled to equal
treatment with the states in appropriations, for home rule, favoring
the pending federal legislation for relief of the labor shortage, rehabi-
htauOn and demonstrating and for land reclamation, use of citizen
labor, betterment of educational facilities and inclusion of vocational
training, conservation of the public health, social welfare, revision
OF the primary law commented upon above, equal rights, privileges
and duties for women and several other points.
The expression as to language schools is clear and to the point.
