Wise Swan Song
Lament For Party
Defeated Candidate Regrets
He Has Been a Burden To
Friends and Perhaps Hurt
Party; Jarrett Thankful.
ASSOCIATED PRESSl

HONOLULU, Nov. S-With William
p. Jarrett accepting the congratula-
tions of his friends and John H. Wise
determined never to enter politics
again. the most bitterly contested
battle for the delegateship in annals
of Hawaii is a matter of history to-
day. For the first time in "a years
the territory will be represented in
Washington by Democrat.
In his first formal statement as del
egate, Jarrett today declared
81 believe that l have been honor
ed above the average in that the vot-
ers supported me in the face of a
strenuous campaign by party which
has been long in power.
Now that | am elected | will en-
deavor to lend every aid and devote
every energy to Hawaii and it's peo-
pie"
The defeated candidate in his final
statement, issued early this morning
said:
"It was not the fault of the party
that | was defeated. l guess it was
my fault more than anything else.
have embarrassed my friends. l am
afraid I've disrupted the party
From now on I'll be entirely out
of politics. The election of my op-
ponent, take it, is a clear expression
by the people that ] am not wanted.
Despite my defeat, | will remain Re
publican and when the occasion arises
| will work for the success of the
party.
81 will never run for Office again and
| am sorry | ran this time because
| feel some other Republican might
have done better for the party"
Lawrence M. Judd, chairman of the
Republican Territorial Central Com
mittee, also issued a statement in
which he asserted:
The election of Jarrett is a tribute
to his personal popularity and while
the Democratic party is to be con-

Help For Hapless
Children Asked
All Persons Are Urged to Give
Something For a Home For
Unfortunate Riddles and
Drive Now Starts.

Funds will be sought during the next
several days for the completion and
equipping of the Maui Children's s
Home. In most sections of the Coun-
ty committees are working today
Practically store to store, office to
office and house to house campaign
is planned. About $4,000 in addi-
tion to the $1,000 already raised will
be required.
On Maui there is at present no
place to Yhich parentless children
can be sent, no place to which can
be committed children who are found
to be abused or improperly cared for,
no place where a mother who must
work or a father who is left with lit
tie children can send them to have
proper care. The need for such an
institution has long been seen and
for about year efforts have been
afoot to secure such a home.
For the new home the site is furn-
ished without cost by Bishop Libert
of the Catholic Church; some of the
lumber was given by the county sal.
vaged from old hospital buildings
other material is being secured prac
tiCally at cost; the architect, Will
liam Desmond, is barely making eX.
penses and the contract is being car
ried on by the builder at very low
figure.
The personnel of the executive
committee shows that the project is
regarded by its members as in nc
sense sectarian but one OF deep in
terest to all creeds, classes, races and
conditions of Maui Protestants and
Catholics and non-Christians are
working shoulder to shoulder for the
good of the little ones. Religion OF
creed of parents will not enter into
the question of admittance to the
home which is to be for any friend
less or unfortunate child.
In seeking the support of the com
munity the executive committee says
that contributions of any size will be
welcomed. Those who have little
are not expected to give much but all
are asked to give something to what
they regard as one of the most worthy
and important projects ever under
taken on Maui.
