True Hawaiian Music.

It is an interesting stand taken by

be effective, should be composed in
Hawaii. 1t is much as II the ancient
Greeks had decided that Greek art, to

The arrangement Of notes so familiar

and cannot be produced "amid the
rumble of elevated railroads. subway

large cities on the mainland"
All those who at one time or an
other have felt the fascination OF the
Hawaiian guitar, with its weird. sweet
slur, and responded to the melodious,
rhythmic beat Of the ukulele. will
wonder as to the truth Of this attitude.
What makes Hawaiian music Ha-
waiian is not so much any peculiar
arrangement Of notes as the way it 10

nothing SO wonderfully distinctive. In
itself, in this class Of music. 1t is
such music as would be expected to
be composed by nature-loving people
who used comparatively simple musi'

There is no particular reason why a

Politics at Home
Ohio This Year.

The. news from Ohio. contained in
The Stars special from Columbus
published Thursday, promises a lively
campaign In that state this year. A
full state ticket and q United States
senator are to be chosen in November.
Candidates in both parties are plenti.
full. The democrats seem to have re-
covered somewhat from the awful Jolt
Of 1920, and to have persuaded them
selves that there is still something
worth living for and fighting for.
The most interesting feature Of the
story relates to former Gov. Harmon,
who was balloted for at Baltimore for
President in 1912. Since then he has
been living in retirement. He re.
ceived no attention at Mr.. Wilson's
hands-no offer Of ofiice for himself. or
for any Of his friends.
He is seventy.seven years old. and
on that account disinclined to enter
into any contest for the local leader.
ship. 1t Is thought. however. that II
the nomination for governor were
rendered him he would accept. Some
Of his friends are trying to clear the
path. His strength lies in the agricul.
tural counties. When in Office some
years ago he was good to the farmers.
Being the Presidents state. Ohio
will be prominently in the picture this
year. In 1920 she gave the re.
publican national ticket nearly four
hundred thousand majority. and the
republican state ticket q majority pro.
portionately as large. No such success
is, Of course, expected next November.
But should the vote be close. and par.
ticularly should the democrats win,
the result would be heralded. not as q
straw, but as haystack, showing the
direction Of the wind. and promising a
democratic gale in 1924.
George White, recently chairman OF
the democratic national ticket. is now
at liberty, and free to devote his whole
time il necessary to the Ohio field.
And Gov. Cox still lives at Dayton,
and has not, so far as known, lost In
terest in politics.

Elimination Of Waste.

1t has been said that the most in.
excusable and most damaging Of all
sins is that Of waste. 1t profits the
sinner nothing. not even qualification,
and there is no one SO innocent as to
escape its evil consequences. By waste
is meant that which is expended for
which nothing is returned, a destruc-
ton Of values for which only void
is left. Waste on a national scale
leaves an incalculable chain Of ills
behind, and MANY Of the ills from
which America is suffering today are
traceable directly to wastefulness.
On another page Of today's Star is
an article explaining the campaign
which has been undertaken by the De-
partment of Commerce. in co-opera-
ton with the associations Of American
engineers, to eliminate waste from in
dustry. 1t is difficult to imagine q
governmental activity containing pos
sibilities Of greater benefit to all the
people. 1t goes to the very heart Of
such problems as the high cost Of liv.
ing. the maintenance Of American liv-
ing standards and American competi-
tion for fair share Of the markets of
the world. II it succeeds in a small
way only it will confer measurable
benefits on the people Of this country.
II it succeeds in a large way 1t will
underwrite prosperity for future years,
prevent recurring periods of unem'
ployment and assure to American
workingmen opportunity for uninter-
rupted progress toward better things.
Welfare of American workers. in
fact, is the very bottom and founda-
ton Of the plan. 1t is Secretary
Hoover's idea that this country must
meet the problem of world competition
without impairing the American stand
ard Of living. His theory Of economics
does not lack altruism, but it relies for
acceptance more largely on sound
business sense. It is his contention
that as the home market consumes
90 per cent of American production,
preservation Of that home market at
the maximum Of consumption is OF
primary consideration. and that means
there must be no impairment OF the
purchasing power Of American labor.
In order to maintain this standard
and still be able to sell surplus prod
ucts in competition with the world
higher efficiency is to be attained and
waste eliminated from all the processes
of production and distribution.
1t is a man-size job which Mr..
Hoover has undertaken. and many
difficulties will be found in the way
of achievement, but that both the un-
dertaking and the leadership are in
spring to men Of vision Is evidenced
by the heartiness and enthusiasm with
which American business In respond.

Is French Suspicion justified?

BERLIN.-H. Won Gerlach, writing
in Welt am Montag, sees some justice
in the French suspicious of Ger
many:
There were again violent attacks
against Germany in the recent de-
bates Of the French chamber" he
says. THE accusations are not by
any means SO ridiculous as a part Of
our press would have it believed. 1t
cannot be denied that hidden arms are
constantly being found in Germany.
and it is particularly regrettable that
these arms should be found so often
in buildings set apart for the reichs-
wehr. Moreover. 1t is a real scandal
to see that the instigators Of these
acts, which are so harmful to the
country, have not yet received the
punishment deserved. What has be-
come of the active officers of the
reichswehr, who had hidden thou
sands of guns in a cellar at Gorlitz?
What punishment have those men re-
ceiyed who hid S43 cannon at Heide-
nau? Have those been punished VINO
hid arms at Potsdam?
Unfortunately it would seem that
there are authorities among us who
have no interest in Furnishing such
deeds. Herr Wirth is certainly not OF
the number, but his wise policy is un.
dermined by such dealings. Ought
benevolent neutrality with regard
to these acts to be prosecuted?
$50 much for Germany But the
French must be warned that they are
going the wrong way about things: ns
make them nervous, but 1 do deny
that they have any real reason Tor
their nervousness. Those men VINO
hide arms in that way must be made
to imagine that they could make war
against serious enemy with a small
number of rusty arms. Even II all
arms were taken from their hiding
places. Germany would never be able able
to fight against France. 1t Is true
that there is still too much of the
military. spirit in Germany. but the
way to disarm militarism Is by pacif-
