News of Former First
Lady Reaches Capital
Through Mrs. Borah
Mrs. Coolidge Will Christen
Cruiser-Brieht Picture of
Former President and
One-Time Mistress of
White House.

Word of Mrs. Calvin Coolidge Is al
ways eagerly received in the National
Capital where she has a host of close
friends and innumerable admirers.
Many members of official life have
visited the former Chief Executive and
Mrs. Coolidge in their home in North
ampton, Mass. In fact. there are few
who knew the former President and his
charming wife In Washington who fail
to call and pay their respects when In
the vicinity of their home.
One Of the most recent visitors at
Northampton is Mrs. Borah, wife of
Senator William E. Borah OF Boise,
Idaho. who stopped of to call on Mr..
and Mrs. Coolidge while on motor
trip through New England.
Mrs. Coolidge enthusiastically asked
about many of her friends in WASH
ington and expressed with much ardor
how greatly. she missed them. Mrs.
Borah found the former First Lady
bit more slight. but even more lovely
than when she last saw her. There was
a touch of sorrow and anxiety in her
handsome face, which Is due, Of course,
to the serious illness Of her mother,
Mrs. Elmira Goodhue. Mrs. Coolidge
was wearing a becoming frock In one
of her favorite hueS, rich rose color
georgette crepe, quite simply fashioned.
Characteristic of the former First Lady
of the Land, she gave Mrs. Borah and
her party happy picture to take on
their way-for when her guests were
departing she accompanied them to the
front porch and stood there waving her
hand until the motor car in which thew
rode was out of sight. Just another
evidence of the charming personality
and thoughtfulness which endears her
to the hearts of all who are fortunate
enough to know and meet her.
The former Chief Executive and Mrs.
Coolidge are remaining close to their
home this Summer to be near and In
calling distance on Mrs. Goodhue whose
condition shows little improvement.
Mrs. Coolidge will spend few hours
away from Northampton September Z,
when she will christen the cruiser
Northampton to be launched at
Quincy, Mass.

SAN FRANCISCO (By MaiD.-
During the years of 1927, 1928 and
1929 there was imported over 5000
Filipino laborers in the Hawaiian
Islands for the purpose of laboring
in the sugar cane field.
These laborers are picked up from
the various sections of Manila and
surrounding territory and promised
that they will be given free trans
portation and liberal wages when
they arrive in the Hawaiian Islands.
Upon their arrival in the Islands
they are segregated and placed in
groups, some are taken to the fields
and others are used in the mills.
Suffice to say that the luckier ones
are the ones that are used in the
mills because they are given a regu-
lar set of hours while the ones that
are in the fields are usually up and
around their various duties before
the rising of the sun and are kept
at their work until after the setting
of that same old sun.

IMPORT PHILIPPINES TO HAWAII TO
ENSLAVE Them In MILLS, FIELDS

The scale of wages? Inexperi-
enced men receive the big sum of
seventy cents per day while the old
timers are given the big sum of one
dollar per day.
Out of this big wage an exagger-
ated amount is subtracted for their
transportation from the Filipino
Islands, thus leaving the laborers'
pockets empty for period of from
eighteen months to two years for
that debt. Oh, yes, they are allowed
credit at the plantation store to the
extent of about ten dollars per
month thus increasing their indebt
edness to the company for prob
able period of about year.
To conclude for the present it
would be fitting to add that they are
also promised free medical treat
ment, that is providing if the medi-
cal attendants are not in town cele
brating some of the numerous events
or luaus (parties) that are held.
