The most remarkable feature of

contract bridge should capture
the i'm agin tion of millions

extent that 100000 words we're

Within 10 days. Woodcock may
be able to reach a decision as to
whether more stringent regula-

One point to be decided is
whether the sale of non-alcoholic

HONOLULU, T. H., Jan. II
GN.SO Sharp criticism had been
heaped today on the head of Ad-
miral William v. Pratt by Homo
lulu clergymen.
Admiral Pratt, in announcing
from Washington boycott Of
Honolulu during the fleets man.
euvers, had said that American
men will not stand for the VIOLA
ton of their women, and that
bloodshed might result if Navy
men were allowed to go ashore
in Honolulu.
Said the Rev. Galen Weaver.
pastor Of the Church of the Cross
Roads:
'1f Admiral Pratt has been
correctly quoted on the Homo
lulu situation his words are a -
crime against public order and
a direct Indictment to further
violence"
The Rev. Clyde Bower, Metho-
dist, declared:
81 disagree with Admiral Pratt.
The Massie case is an excep-
tiOn. It is unwiSe to take the
law into ones hands as this
diScOurageS respect for law"
The Rev. DR.. Horace Leavitt, of
the Central Union Congregational
Church, said:
"The biggest need now is for
sane people who will determine
the needed reforms and then
fight to get them"

SENATORS TOLD.
MARKET WAS
'R|GGED'
Former Diplomat Says He Was
Ordered to Send Only
"0ptimiStiC" Reports

The great bulk of defaulted
Latin-American bond issues
will be settled on an average
Of 10 cents on a dollar after
a few years, Lawrence Dennis,
former State Department
Latin-American diplomat, pre-
dicted today to the Senate
finance committee.
A total of $815, 100000 of these
securities are now in default and,
according to previous witnesses be-
fore the committee, an equal
amount will be defaulted in the
next six months.
"Rigged the Market"
Dennis declared that on "some
of the weaker Latin-American is
sues, the New York bankers rugged
the market" in order to promote
the sale of the securities. He said
the bankers would push up the
price of Latin-American bonds so
as to give a favorable impression
CT the market.
This process of market rig
ging," Dennis said, is done by
buying old bonds at a price slightly
above the current quotation thus
boosting their quotation. BY this
method, Dennis asserted, the price
of new issues were raised. He said
it was used on several of the Peru
Wan issues.
Was "Reprimanded"
The Department of Commerce
severely reprimanded" him for
making an unfavorable report
concerning Peru's unsound finan-
cial condition in 1927 and ordered
him to make Optimistic state
ments," Oliver C. Townsend, for.
mer commercial attache in Lima,
told the committee. He testified:
81 was told that optimistic
reports were needed"
He declared he had advised
both the State Department and
the Commerce DEPARTMENT that
Peru was heavily over-borrowing
and warned against further loans.

works, the more necessary it is to
relax, to forget and to re-establish
tie emotional equilibrium rudely
upset by the real fears and wor-
ries of the everyday struggle for
existence.
Bridge offers soothing escape
from the harder realities of life.
Women are largely responsible
for the tremendous popularity of
this match. Women have at last
found a competitive diversion i'll
which they feel on a footing of
equality with man.
Woman's interest in outdoor
sports is the reflected secondary
interest of her husband. In bridge,
she finds herself on a common
intellectual plane, where she may
exchange inference for inference,
bid for bid, and play for play. She
can in many cases even teach a
trick or two to her august male.

MASS|E ATTACK
BRUTAL CRIME

HONOLULU, Jan. 1.-THE
shameful attack upon Mrs. Thalia
Fortescue Massie made it neces-
Sary for her to have an opera
ton to avoid the birth of a child.
The young matron, wife of
Lieut.. Thomas H. Massie, was
walking alone along a lonely
street of the Waikiki district on
Saturday night, September IL,
when she was set upon by five
hoodlums.
They were led, she charged, by
Joe KahahaWai. the native whose
murder is charged to Mrs. Gran
vile Fortescue, Lieut.. T. H. Mas
sic and E. j. Lord.
Another, she said, was Horace
Ida, the Japanese who recently
was kidnapped and nearly beaten
to death. .-..
Each of the men criminally at
tackled her. Mrs. Massie said. She
lost consciousness several times
during the ordeal When she
feebly fought off her attackers,
they beat her into submission,
breaking both her Jaws, blacking
an eye, bruising her nose and
otherwise injuring her.

Minis, Says Medical Asso-

The inestimable benefits OF
good beer as a health restOra-
tive were expounded today by
DR.. William Gerry Morgan, of
this city, president Of the
American Medical Association.
Appearing before the Metcalf
Senate Committee, which is con-
s.derin. the Bingham bill for

DR.. Morgan said beer not only
would act as a health restorative
but stem the steadily increasing
hard drinking by American youth.
He said:
Beer has no deIeteriOuS eff
feet. 1 look upon it in the ma
ture of food, particularly in
those individuals who on ac-
count of illness would not be
able to take sufficient amounts
of ordinary food.
Acts AS a Tonic
1T contains many vitaminS
and acts as a tonic for loss of
appetite"
DR.. M. an said a normal man
or woman could drink two quarts
of beer every 16 hours without
any bad effects.
He said he had visited almost
every city in the Union during
the past two years and found
everywhere an increase in the
use of intoxicating liquor, adding:
"At almost every banquet 1
attended flaSkS were produced
by young men and young
women, too"
Bishop James Cannon, jr., Of
the M. E. Church, South, listened
to the testimony.

Graln crops IN Great BRITAIN are
up to average-hay considerably be-
low.
Thin apples, on vigorous trees, to
about six inches apart. Remove all
fruits affected with insect or dis
ease injury by spray burn, by hail,
by limb rub, and with other blem-
ishes.
Fire blight was first reported in
the United States as attacking ap-

ease originated in Japan.
