Manager Morris Goes
To Honolulu To Take
Better Position There

Manager Charles E. Morris of the
Royal Hawaiian Garage Maui Branch
is to leave tomorrow for Honolulu to
accept promotion in the company. He
is to become it's sales manager. Mrs.
Morris will follow later. "Doonie"
Hartman, well known car salesman
and by no means unknown on Maui,
arrived this morning from Honolulu
to take over the management of the
Maui concern.
Morris received word of the plans
Sunday morning from General Man
ager Phillips. The latter had return
ed to Honolulu Wednesday night and
there had been no definite plans for
a change made at that time. The de-
cision was reached on Saturday, Nor
ris says.
Last Friday morning Manager
Phillips talked with the editor of
Maui News in the office of the Homo
lulu concerns. At that time he said
nothing to indicate that Morris was
to be taken into the main Office be-
yond the remark that good men are
developed in the other Islands and
then some times taken to Honolulu.
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Morris have
made many warm friends on Maui
who will regret their departure. Nor.
ris says that he will take with him
some of the pleasantest memories OF
his life and Mrs. Morris also cordially
regrets the breaking of social ties
formed with "neighbors so thoroughly
delightful whom l can never forget.

Truck Overturned; All
Occupants Thrown Out
And One Badly Hurt

Six persons were thrown from a
Ford truck, one seriously injured, the
others escaping with scratches, cuts
and bruises, when the car went into
the ditch near the home of Fred
Wolf in the Pauwela section on Sat
urday afternoon. The accident is re-
ported to have occurred about 2:30
o'clock
The truck was being driven in from
Peahi by Sherman Hall, hydraulic en-
gineer of the East Maui Irrigation
Company and in it with him were
five Japanese. The car struck stone
in the road, it is said, and the steer
ing gear became locked, the car go
ing into the ditch and capsizing,
throwing out all of the occupants.
One of the Japanese struck upon his
head probably encountering a rock
and sustained a fracture of the skull.
Yesterday afternoon he was reported
as resting comfortably with good
chance of recovery.
Dr. st. Sure was called and rem
dered immediate surgical aid to all
of the injured and the Japanese who
had suffered the fracture of the skull
was taken to the hospital.

Maui Hawaiian Women
On Record Opposing
Vulgar Hula Dances

Opposition to vulgar exhibitions of
hula dancing, of what has been
characterized by L. A. Thurston as
"commercialized hula exhibitions"
was voiced by the members of the
Maui Hawaiian Women's Club at a
meeting held last Friday afternoon.
The action, proponents of the rcsolu-
ton said, does not mean that the club
and its members are opposed to hula
dancing of types which are not vul-
gar, indecent and suggestive, of which
other type there are many Nor
does the action, it is said, reflect up
On the performance which was given
for the Los Angeles visitors at Ka-
hului recently.
The text of the resolution the club
adopted follows:
Whereas, there is constantly he
ing presented, in vulgar and indie
cent FORM to tourists and strangers
within our gates, exhibitions of So
called hula dancing; which are not,
in any true sense, representative of
Hawaii or its People, but, on the con-
trary, reflect upon every self-respec,-
ing woman of Hawaiian blood,
Therefore Resolved, that the Maui
Hawaiian Woman's Club, in meeting
regularly assembled, desires to, and
does, place itself publicly of record
as being strongly opposed to such
commercialized exhibitions of the
Ancient Hawaiian Hula.

Secretary Maui Hawaiian
Women's Club"

Accident Not Caused
By Poor Equipment or
Careless Operation

Full aid detailed investigation into
the accident which occurred on the
KahulIS railroad has shown no fault
in the equipment of the road nor any
carelessness in its operation. Reports
have been received from the brake
man upon whom the responsibility for
the proper holding of the cars rested,
the locomotive engineer of No. and
station agents who saw the runaway
cars. The fact that it was the first
accident that arose from the handling
OF cars in nine years of operations in
that section substantiates the asser-
ton.
The brakeman claims that he ap-
piled the brakes and stick" before
leaving the train and that they were
properly cared for. The evidence of
other employees that has been taken
discredits his testimony He also
says that the cars were properly
guarded by safety switches but in this
instance the cars kept to the track
instead of derailing on passing a
switch.
The cars and equipment of the road
especially the former, are as near per
feet and standard as can be obtained
They are of the type used by the best
mainland roads for similar work
though OF narrower gauge.
In last Fridays issue of Maui News
it was not intended to be intimatct
that the road was being or had beer
carelessly operated and Mr.. Walsl
should have been quoted as saying
that the accident must have ariseI
from carelessness on the part of some
one in that particular instance.

Don't Cut Screen,
Use Key Harris

"Friend Burglar"
"There are few more suits of
underwear and one or two pair of
socks, a few knieknaeks, a cap and
a panama hat that have survived
your fourth visit to my home in
the past few months"
"But listen, old top" "a suppose
you will want these soon. All I
ask is that on your next visit
please don't cut any more screens.
1t let's the mosquitoes in. Just let
me know when you're coming and
I'll leave the key to the house on
the front porch"
Dick Harris, manager of the
Maui Amusement Company chain
of theaters issues the above state
ment to the person of dubious oc-
cupation whose business it is of
visiting other peoples homes and
annexing the family jewels, to say
nothing of mems and women's
lingerie, hose and other articles of
wearing.
The strange visitor has paid four
visits to the Harris home in a very
few months. The last time, on
Saturday, he cut window screens
to effect an entrance.
Harris objects to the defacing of
the house which, by the way, isn't
his. Therefore his kind invitation.

Baby Show VIII Be
Feature of the Fair

1t was announced yesterday after
noon that a Baby Show will be an
added attraction on the Thursday of
the Fair. Often the sugar industry
is called Maui's greatest but hun
dreds of fond parents will deny this
and insist that there offspring are
sweeter and more valuable than the
output of the great sugar mills and
far more desirable than the thousands
of cases of canned pineapples the
canneries turn out.
There is no question but that the
baby show will prove one of the most
popular sections of all the Fair
Grounds while the little folk are on
display.

of car was on a clear road.
"In this instance, however" he said
"it has been shown that there actual

Low was summoned at the instance

SIXTH OF WORLD
 TONNAGE NOW
 IDLE AT PORTS
Freight Rate War and Cargo Shortage Tie Up 40 Per Cent. of U. $. Marine.

New York, Aug. 12.-Steamship men estimate one-sixth of the world s shipping, about 10,00o,000 gross tons, is now idle.
 Of this volume 4,5o0,OO0 tons of vessels are tied up in the United States ports, including Shipping Board and private American boats. This represents about 40 per cent of the tonnage under the United States flag. The English total is 100000 tons or one-tenth of the British fleet.
 British Statistics Latest statistic show that on July there were 100000 tons of British ships tied up in their own ports. com pared with 1,300,o00 tons on Janu- ary l.
 was due to the fact that last winter freight rates reached a low point and showed a tendency to rise This was met immediately by the placing in op- British ships, which again broke the market. Rates fell to new low lev els.
 Billions Invested It is estimated in British marine publications that conservative valuation on the idle ships at pres ent prices is $45 ton, making the total tied up tonnage worth about o,oOO,000. Ships built since 1915 represent a still greater expenditure for construction. The cost of the Shipping Board vessels now idle is placed at s1,0Oo 00o,0oO alone, The presence of this surplus ton mage, which is ready to go into op- eration the moment a, profitable rate becomes evident, keeps the industry in a state of chronic depression. which probably will not be lifted un- til the excess is removed. Many Firms Failed In the last two years hundreds of st ga mshin concerns launched during the war have succumbed. Many others are struggling along from day to day in the hope of an improve ment, which is not yet in sight. Idle ships in British ports number | 500. In this country the Shipping | Board has tied up about 1000 steel vessels, in addition to the SO0 wooden ships.

COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS PROHIBITION OF
 MANUFACTURE AND SALE OF PISTOLS
Committee On Law Enforcement Declares Pistol Has Nc Useful Purpose In Community; Ninety Per Cent ot Crimes Committed By Their Use,

Third, we find the causes for de- lay in criminal cases so varied ana the conditions so differing that we hesitate to make specific recommen- dations. Di1atory motions and many other causes for delay, all accrue to the benefit of the law breaker.
 We recommend that every state enjoyed by a defendant-except from a verdict of NOT guilty, and we recommend that the prosecutor in a criminal trial shall have the right to fact that the defendant has failed himself to contradict or deny testi- mony offered by the prosecution.
 'tWe recommend that the state be ment upon proper terms, in matters of form.
 I've recommend that there should be- but one appeal from a judgment of conviction in the trial court.
 we recommend that there be enacted legislation limiting the time during which judges or courts may hold under advisement dilatory mo- tions made in criminal trials; that at the expiration of sucn time, without action, such a motion shall be deem- ed to be denied.
 Fourth, we find that in some of the states the jury is the final judge both of the law and the facts. We believe that such a condition is ab- soIute1y subversive of a government of law and we recommend the repeal of such statutes.
 Abuses of Bail. Fifth, We find in various turisdic- tions glaring abuses in the matter Of bail. both in the amounts imposed and in the suff1ciency of security of- fered.

that White. had encouraged Gibson to ind man who would make and sell whiskey for him. Gibson as a wit ness, testified that White approached him and asked him if he knew where he could get some wine. Gibson said he did and took White to Vacloric's place. Gibson said he introduced the men and that White had asked Vac loric f,T, wine and had been given ., glass. White then said if Vacloric had anything stronger?" the latter brought out whiskey. Gibson said that he had been to VacIoric's place to search for evidence for State Of fcer Frank Virelli and had gone there without knowledge of his superior of feer, Chief Pennington. Gibson said that he was on duty at the time he went to Vaclorics place.
 Gibson said thas White had not made threats at any time but had merely made inquiry.
 Mrs. Vacloric testified that White had asked her husband, on his first visit if he could make anything stronger than wine and her husband said he could. On the second visit, she said White took away two gallons of whiskey. She could not recall whether he took anything the third time, but on the fourth or final visit she said White paid her husband Ss a gallon for five gallons of whfskey- White did not testify at the hearing. He had not received notice of his dis missal this morning but Judge Light said that the action of the council would be appealed to the courts.

Davis Cup Tilt
 In Boston, Today

Boston Aug 12-The two final singles matches in the Australia Vs. France series of the Davis cup semi final round at Longwood today should and probably will be a mere formal ity In the first of these, Gerald l.. Patterson, of Australia, will meet Henri Cochet, of France, and go on about their business directly after the match, Gerald should knock Henrl for a tray of French pastry.
 If he does, the verdict will go to Australia, regardless of what Andre Colbert of France may do to Fat O'Hara Wood, of Australia, in the other singles match Australia will then have scored three victories in possible five and qualified itself to meet Spain in the final round at Phil adelphia. next week.
 Were it not for the dark day inn pending and the severity of Patter- sons service, Cochet would not be a forlorn hope altogether today In deed this 20-year-old French school boy has surprised every one with the tennis he has uncovered here and on the face of the returns, is certainly no mans sap. He might even carry Patterson to five sets for, aside from his service, the winner of the all comerS' singles at Wimbledon has been far from impressive in this se- TieS.
 Cochet's game has two outstanding thing that might even bo construed as an adequate service and he is inclined to fall prey to inexperience. The lat ter finds expression in faulty court matches and inclination to indulge himself in fits of wildneSS.
