Cooking Class Finds
Substitute for Gelatin

Through the cooking class of Homo
lulu high school the discovery has been
made that excellent gelatin. substitute
can be made from Japanese seaweed
called "tengusa," which is found In large
quantities on the Asiatic Coast and can
be easily imported into Hawaii
This class was experimenting with
"kanten," which Is made from the sea-
weed, and found that it hardened much
more rapidly than gelatin. Analysis
gave it an excellent food value. A sea-
weed similar to Japanese tengusa Is the
Hawaiian limu Experiments are now

Grand Jury Indictment to Be
Evidence in Hearing at
Alexandria.
COLLINS, PROSECUTOR,
CONFIDENT OF REMOVAL
Defense Attorney Promises Wit
nesses to Prove Suspect in vir-
ginia During Baker Murder.

With Wednesday set as the date for
showdown in the legal skirmish be-
tween opposing counsel to determine
whether Herbert M. Campbell shall be
returned from Alexandria to Washing
ton to face trial in the Staying of Mary
Baker, the case was at a standstill
today.
william H. Collins, an assistant Unit
ed States attorney in charge of the case
said today that he was so confident
Campbell would be ordered removed to
Washington after Wednesdays hearing
that he intended to leave tomorrow for
hearing will be held before j. Barton
Phillips, United States commissioner
In Alexandria.
Prosecution to Offer Indictment.
The prosecution will introduce in evil
dence a copy of the indictment charg-
ing Campbell with murder returned yes
terday by a District grand Jury after
a short but thorough investigation of
the Staying. The testimony of more
than a dozen witnesses brought about
the grand jury action.
An indictment by Federal grand
jury" Collins declared, sis ample au-
thority to cause any commissioner to
recommend removal of a prisoner from
one Jurisdiction to another. All of the
decisions uphold me in this statement
That, no doubt, is why Campbells at
torney offered after the indictment yes
terday voluntarily to surrender his
client here if we would recommend his
release under bail"
Many Alibi Witnesses Promised.
Charles Henry Smith, counsel for
Campbell, asserted he would produce
numerous witnesses Wednesday who
would testify Campbell was in Airing
ton County, Va, at the time of the
Staying here. He said he felt sure he
would succeed in blocking the defend
ants removal.
Anybody can be indicted for any
thing" Smith said. why, I'll bet ]
could indict you in the Baker case il
I had charge of a grand jury. But you
would be acquitted when placed on
trial. SO will Campbell, if we should
by any chance lose our fight against
his removal
A copy of the indictment was for
warded today to Gallon B. Jones, an
assistant United States attorney in
Richmond, Va, who will represent the
Government at Wednesdays hearing.
