Envoy of Roosevelt
To Investigate Hawaii

HOUOLULU, Hawaii.-Latest move in
the plans of the Roosevelt administra-
tion for the government of Hawaii is
an investigation into conditions here
by personal envoy of the President.
The investigator, as yet unnamed, is
expected to come to the islands some
time in the next few weeks. 1t has
been revealed at the White House that
the envoy will investigate the judicial
and police situation" of Hawaii.
Meanwhile, the appointment of a
Governor has been delayed. When the
Senate blocked the Presidents plan to
amend the Hawaii organic act and
permit the appointment of non-resi-
dent as Governor, it was hinted that
Mr.. Roosevelt intended to take further
steps to give him greater freedom of
choice.
Gov. Judd, Republican, is holding
office till a successor is appointed.
which now apparently will not be until
Fall or perhaps next year. Congress
men who opposed the Rankin bill
amending the organic act are prepared
to renew their opposition in case the
measure is brought up at the next
session, and one conjecture is that
President Roosevelt desires to get a
first-hand report on Hawaii that will
enable him to say, from recent infor-
nation, that the need for amending the
organic act Is not so pressing as it had
hitherto been considered.

Passing of 'sDarkest Africa Is Seen
With Plans to Develop the Interior

LONDON.-Keen interest has been
aroused here by projects aimed to
open up" vast tracts of the continents
Of Australia and Africa.
While the government of Australia
has approved the proposal of two char
tered companies to develop the empty
north" an area 10 times the size Of
England and Wales and inhabited by
only 5000 persons, there are British,
French and italian rail, road and air
plans calculated to make the term
darkest" no longer applicable to the
continent of Africa, which the French
refer to as "the continent of the
future"
Interest Stimulated.
The successful operation of trans
African airlines has only served to stimu-
late interest in rail and road projects
there. British, Egyptian and Sudanese
automobile associations have been anx-
ious to secure the completion of a
Cape-to- Cairo motor highway, and plans
have recently been drawn up for what
would be the longest motor road in the
world
In the first four months of this year
a convoy operating under British war
office auspices, made preliminary sur
vey Of a route running through Khar-
toum, Uganda, Tanganyika, Kenya and
Rhodesia. In August the South African
government will open a new section
between the Great Lakes which will
shorten the Cape-to-Cairo motor route
by nearly 1000 miles. This great high
way, when completed will rival the
Franco-Belgian road across the Sahara
Desert, which is now open for traffic.
Interest Increased.
With the opening of the trans
Saharan highway there has been in
creased interest in France in the con-
struction of a'railroad across the great
desert wastes, particularly as Italy has
ambitions to build railroad across the
Sahara to connect Tripoli and Lake
Chad. So far there has been more
military than popular urging for such a
project although it is explained by advo-
Gates of the scheme that employment
would be given to 5000 FTenchmen

of the old saloon. Delaware, in addi-
ton, seems to favor licensing the in
dividual buyer, as he is licensed in
certain of the Canadian provinces and
in Sweden.
From the incomplete summary, 1t
seems that the principle of States rights
IS desired by our citizens. The differ
ing conditions of rural and urban life
of divergent race groups, of personal
opinion. seem to make the principle
of States rights as natural and as rea-
sonable as the principle of local option
is felt to be in New York State, where
we have written into our law a provi-
sion for each county to decide whether
it shall permit the sale of beer.
Learn From Beer Experience.
In this control of the manufacture
and sale of beer we have learned les
sons that will be valuable in regulating
control of hard liquors. The details we
have worked out for the regulation OF
beer may serve as the ground work
for the control of the entire alcohol
traffic. When the five members Of our
board took up the duty of administer
ing the law so that no new evils would
replace the old, a minority of sincere
citizens believed that legal beer would
open the door to new day OF license
and abuse.
But among my duties as police COM
missioner had been the task of trying
to enforce the prohibition laws and
believed that legal beer was the first
step toward true temperance-the first
step toward wiping out the era OF
crime and racketeering ushered in by
the eighteenth amendment. Four
months have passed. and in those four
months national events, in my opinion,
have been gratifying to the friends OF
temperance. The Alcoholic Beverage
Control Board has noted from the first
an unmistakable cooperation on the
part of the public The average citi-
zen Is supporting the control of legal
beer. Following this wave of almost
universal approval there came the re-
port of an increase in temperance
everywhere. Working men, young peo-
pie, men in their clubs, were drinking
beer; and, we were credibly informed
the demand for hard liquor was falling
off, in some places, almost to nothing.
$4,000 Speakeasies Close.
Two months after the experiment
had begun, Mai. A. v. Dalrymple, ma
tional prohibition director, admitted
that at least $4,000 speakeasies had
been driven out of business through
out America by the new beer laws.
Ten thousand Of these recently closed
speakeasies, he said, were in New York
City; 10000 more in Chicago. Said
DR.. Shirley w. Wynne, New York
health commissioner: "The logical con-
clusion is that the people of New York
have been drinking less strong liquors,
and that the legalization of beer has
saved life day since April T." The
New York figures, DR.. Wynne explain
ed, showed about so fewer deaths from
alcoholism, and accidents due to alco-
holism, in those first two months.
Another encouraging figure: During

a ORE than half Of the required
m number of States already have
V ratified repeal of the eighteenth
l amendment. Elections IN many
more are set for this Fall. Win
State after State going for repeal inert
has arisen a growing conviction tnat
prohibition will be voted out OF the
Constitution by Christmas.
If this conviction proves correct
there remain only four months before
those of us whose duty it is to control
the wholesale manufacture and the re-
tai: sale of alcoholic beverages mus
meet a new challenge. Extensive STUDY
ana thought must be given to new
system of regulation to make sure tnat
the control Of drink In the future aoes
not repeat the old abuses OF the system
before the eighteenth amendment, or
the much more fragrant abuses which
have overwhelmed us during these sorry
wears Of prohibition. The new day must
not repeat the evils OF the old.
The American people have the rlgnt
tn expect a workable and prompt solu-
ton of the problems Of liquor control
hv the time such a solution Is neces-
sary. Prompt solution also will be
necessary to make available as soon as
POSSIBLE the additional national and
State revenue which the sale OF nquor
will bring, and such revenue Is soreiy
needed. President Roosevelt already
has gone on record in this regard win
an appeal to the country. He mas ex,
planned how the revenues, which repeal
would bring in, would provide $500 ,0O0,-
600 yearly income With these added
funds the National Government would
be able to remit the recent unemploy-
ynent and work relief taxes.
VIII States Be Ready?
But what is the solution going to be?
Are the different States working upon
a solution? Will they be ready with
their plans, when the plans are needed?
Reports from the country at large IN
form us that commissions in at least
eight States-in Connecticut, Delaware,
Massachusetts,, Michigan, New Jersey,
New York, Ohio and Rhode Island
are now working on the problem. They
are studying possible systems OF con,
trol, and advising the Governor ana
Legislature as to new laws. Recently,
also, four States-Colorado, Mississippi.
Texas and Alabama-have requested
headquarters of various national repeal
control systems, so that their States,
too, may start formulating workable
systems.
Some States have gone still farther.
In addition to the advisory commits
sions already mentioned, there are now
functioning in ten State at this writing
in Connecticut. Delaware, Missouri,
Massachusetts,, Michigan. New Hamp-
shire. New Jersey, New York, Ohio and

, source of supplies. Concerns that sell
goods to agriculture, without buying
from it, ask what commodities restored
agriculture will mostly demand. In
dustries that buy goods from agricul-
ture, to process or distribute, chiefly
want to know how they may be affected
by processing taxes or marketing agree
mentS. These are questions Of leg1ti-
mate concern, and the Agricultural Ad-
justment Administration issues answers
as fast as they become available. But
there is something Of still greater i'm
portance to on-agricultural business
the success of the act in its primary
purpose, the rehabilitation Of agricul-
ture.
$3.50 Average Net Return.
Gross farm income last year was
less than half that Of 1929. Mortgage
interest and taxes together took close
to Is per cent of the gross farm in
come. After paying the expenses of
production, interest, rent and taxes, the
average farmer had left only about
$3.50. This gave him nothing on his
investment and less than common Ia
Dor pay for his labor and management
Farmers suffered tremendous loss in
capital values as well as in current
income in the two post war depres-
sions. The total value Of all the capi-
tai employed in agriculture was esti-
mated in January last at only $38, ,000,-
100000, as compared with SIS, 9,000,-
100000 in 1919.
Such conditions divorce farm opera
ton from farm ownership, degrade
farmers into serfdom, and threaten the
stability Of non-agricultural business
All sound planning for the restoration
Of our economic system begins there
fore with agriculture. The real test
Of the agricultural act, even from the
standpoint of the city dwellers, turns
on whether or not 1t can solve the
problem of the surplus. Any move not
accompanied by progress in adjusting
supply to demand will be a false move
Readjustment Sole Cure.
It is we'll enough to talk about
getting for the farmer q larger share
of the consumers dollar. about market
ing agreements calculated to raise farm
prices more nearly to pre-war parity.
These are desirable ends. They can
be achieved permanently, however, only
through readjustments In production.
The Agricultural Adjustment Admins
tration asks the community, and par
ticularly the food industries, to help.
It believes that readjusted production
is the one road to restoration of farm
solvency and farm buying power, and
that these things are necessary not
only for agriculture, but for the Nation
as whole.

something similar to the Quebec plan,

where hard liquor may only be bought

Among the States every system Of

adopt it as its own solution. For in

r YNDER the agricultural adjust
ment act. agriculture and in
dustry will come into. close re-
~ lationship.
This development will in
volve experimentation. Production con-
troll under the agricultural adjustment
act may extend, not merely to the
specific basic commodities mentioned
in the law, but to other commodities
as well This can be done by means
of marketing agreements whereby the
Secretary of Agriculture may arrange
with associations of producers, process
sors, distributors and others to adjust
production, prices, supply areas and
relationships among various branches
of trade Some principles and details
have yet to be worked out for agri-
cultural marketing agreements, which
must be co-ordinated with codes of
fair competition under the industrial
recovery act.
Their primary aims are: To benefit
the farmer through increased prices
for agricultural products; to give ade-
quate protection to the consumer; to
improve. labor conditions in the indus
tries affected, and to regulate produc-
ton and distribution. AS in the case
of the acreage reduction programs,
this last feature is basic.
Benefit by Balance.
Benefit will come to agriculture not
through eXtortion. because prices fixed
too high stimulate production while
restricting consumption, but through
organized adjustment of production to
demand. Benefit will come also from
the elimination of unnecessary and
wasteful competition and bad trade
practices. and from the reduction of
spreads between producers and con-
sumerS' prices.
Voluntary cooperation in all lines of
food processing and distribution is re-
qrlred. to the end that production and
distribution of farm products may be
better regulated The President has
placed the administrative responsibility
for the food business upon the Agri-
cultural Adjustment Administration. 1t
will be necessary to have a basic code
for food manufacturing, with supple
mental codes to cover special conditions
in individual industries or in localities
Must Harmonic Interests.
The interests or wholesalers, retail
ers, chain stores and other distributors
must be harmOnlZe0 Win tnOSe OF pro-
ducers. Cut-throat competition and
special practices that depress the price
of first one commodity and then an
other, such as the use of the 'loss
leader" in retailing. must be sup
pressed. Secret agreements involving
discounts and special allowances must
be dropped In short, the power con-
ferred in the agricultural act and the
Industrial recovery act to curb business
evils and promote orderly development
accompanied by safeguards for the con-
sumer must be set in action in a CO.
