MAKES
FIRST REPORT
AS A SENATOR

WASHINGTON, d. c., March 13.-
The first report made to the United
States senate by Senator Carl Hayden,
q member Of the committee on terri
tories and insular possessions, relates
to an important bill affecting the well
fare Of the Hawaiian Islands. Il is his
report on the Hawaiian homes COM
mission bill Senator Hayden said in
part:
"This is a bill to provide for the con-
tinuance Of the project of the Hawai-
ian homes commission first passed
through congress in 1920 as a result Of
the efforts Of the late Hon Jonah
Kuhio Kalanianaole, delegate to con-
gress from Hawaii, for ten terms The
bill aims to rell3bilitate members of
the native Hawaiian race, by providing
for them homesteads and home sites
upon areas of government land scat
tered throughout the territory.
Before the coming of Captain Cook,
who made the Hawaiian Islands
known to the world, there was no sucn
a right as private tenure of land. The
land all belonged to the various kings
of the islands.
upon the coming of the white man,
it was urged upon the little kingdom,
that no man was wholly free until he
owned his own home. The agitation
was probably fostered by those new
comers who themselves wanted to OBJ
tain title to land. The consequence was
the great division of lands after 1840
when fee simple titles we're first pro-
vided for. But experience dernonstrat-
ed that the change from one system
of land tenure to another was too
abrupt, and before long with their titles
negotiable the natives lost most of
their holdings.
'It is to remedy these conditions and
to bring the people Of Hawaiian blood
back onto the land that the original
act was enacted by congress, and the
extension of which your committec
now recommends through the passage
of this bill"

Mining Man Returns From
East-GO0d Report on
Verde Extension

After having been within SO miles OF
Hudson bay inspecting mining prop
critics as a guest of mining men with
whom he became acquainted in Buf-
falo while looking after some financ-
ing matters for his property in the
Yaqui valley in Sonora, John Blum
berg returned this week from the
east enthusiastic over the miJ . 1g sit
uation generally. He brougA.y some
encouraging reports concerning the
development Of the United Verde EX-
tension on property adjacent to the
famous Noranda mine at Rouen, Que
bee, and also concerning the attitude
toward mining in the west and in
Mexico as now manifested by the
money interests of the east
"There is a much changed atti-
tude toward mining interests in Mex
leo, a situation that attribute, from
remarks that heard from various
sources, to the better relations that
have been created by the dip
lomacy of Ambassador Morrow" said
Mr.. Blumberg. There is plenty OF
money in the east TO be had for
mining development in Mexico; yes,
I might say there is an abundance
Of it, merely waiting to be called into
action
Mining development, generally, is
attracting liberal interest and finan-
ciaI support. My visit was for the
purpose of financing my own prop
critics and 1 came back ready to con-
tinue my development to whatever
extent that may be required I shall
continue my journey to the mine
within the next week or 10 days.
"While in the east, some gentle
men who have large interests in the
Rouen district invited me to. travel
as their guest to their properties and
L made the trip. We were within
so miles of Hudson bay before we
returned to Buffalo and had been
where the snow was nine feet deep.
On that trip I was able to gather
some rather definite and accurate
as well as most favorable reports con-
cerning the United Verde Extension
development in the Noranda district.
I talked with men intimately famil-
lar with the property being developed
and they declared it to be one of the

AMERICAN GIRL,
NOW HINDU, IS
READY TO WE'D

Mask, India, March Is M9-Miss
Nancy Miller of Seattle or as she will
henceforth be known under the Hindu
name, Devi Sharlnista, today qualified
herself to marry the ex-maharajah of
Indore by becoming convert to the
Hindu religion.
The conversion rites were perform
ed without any observable hindranceSI
or objections such as had been thought
possible. There Was a considerable
gathering of Indians and some Euro
peanS to witness the rites, and the
bride-elect, although evidently i'm
pressed at the unaccustomed ritual,
fully preserved her composure and
self possession.
Her face betrayed the strain of the
rather trying ordeal, this being espec-
tally noticeable when she was called
upon to renounce the faith of her
fathers and solemnly swear adhesion
during the remainder of her life to the
Hindu creed.
All is now ready for the solemniza-
ton of her wedding to the former
naharajah, which is set for Saturday.
When interviewed after the cere-
mony Miss Miller said she had found
the rites less an ideal than she had
expected She explained that the
name she had adopted, Devi Sharm-
ista, was that of a famous queen Of
Indian history ten centuries before
Christ She said she would retain the
Indian dress as long as she stayed in
India.
For the rites Miss Miller was dressed
in blue green brocade with gold
saree covering her head. She wore no
jewels except a necklace of blue glass
beads with red glass bangles.
Hindu nlaidenS, some OF them wear
ing elaborate diamond rings, walked
around the sacrificial fire barefooted
at one state of the ceremony and then
squatted on the floor Indian fashion
opposite six priests who chanted SAN
skirt hymns and mantras from the
Veda, the holy book of Hinduism.
Ali of this while other priests tend
ed the holy fire and sprinkled holy
water on their skinned convert,
signifying her publication. Each time
this was done Miss Miller nodded ac-
ceptance of the purging.
She was assisted by two ladies Oh
the Holkar family, while Hindu gen.
tlemen sitting next to her explained
the meaning of each process of the
ceremony. A conspicuous II ure
throughout was Miss Millers grand
mother, sitting behind her.
At the conclusion of the rites as her
publication was attested by the priests,
Miss Miller touched the feet of Shan
karcharva who blessed her and offered
her bits of cocoanut meat. The saree
and bodice were taken from a tray and
placed about her, signifying that the
ceremony was completed.
The assembled priests and wise men
blessed her amidst cries of Hindu
Dharma Ki Jai," meaning God bless
the Hindu religion"
While returning after the ceremony
a committee of the depressed classes
met the new convert and made an adj
dress of welcome, declaring that
seventy million depressed people suf-
fering from untold iniquities and sor-
rows looked to her as the usher of
new era of equality for the Hindu fold.
n
