p. S. Otis & Co. and Hasley,
Stuart & Co., Chicago, who
purchased the issue, have yet
to sell the bonds to the public.
Mr.. Eaton believes that the pres
ent gas plant Of the city. efficiently
managed, will yield sufficient reve-
nue. to meet principal and interest
requirements on the projected So
OOc zoo bond issue.
Up. S-Mr. Eaton is generally re-
puted to be the owner Of a substan-
tial block of common stock Of the
Citizens Gas Coz
The Cleveland fnancier, who,
back in the halycon boom days was
accredited with a financial reputa-
ton in the Middle West second only
to that of Samuel insult. was in In
dianapolis Monday and Tuesday
when the bids on the $4,000. 900 bond
issue we're opened and studied by
the City Utility District.
Begs TO be Excused
Mr.. Eaton's Inflated Continental
Shares, Inc, giant holding company
was one of the principal trading
mediums on the New York STOCK
Exchange in that era.
Mr.. Eaton expressed intimacy
with the Differentiated rumor that
he is the person behind the cryptic
Dow & Co." which owns more than
$4,000 shares Of the Citizens Gas Co.
common stock. Beyond his knowl-
edge Of the reports Mr.. Eaton
begged to be excused.
Mr.. Eaton openly comedies that
he has cast envious eyes toward the
local gas property and that he
would at any time have paio the
city 100000 for its equity in the
property.
The Midwest financier does not
hold any particular brief for NUM-
cipaI ownership Of public utilities,
but believes that this view should
rot detain his firm from helping
any municipality from financing
such a move. The afterthought. of
course. is that there are profits to
be realized in transactions Of this
nature.
Don't Quote Me-
Mr.. Eaton has a congenital aver
sion to newspaper interviews and
because of that is a hard subject for
reporters. His conversation is dotted
with don't quote me" phrases.
Mr.. Eaton visions the day, after
the current unique depression" has
run its course. when coke prices will
be within striking distance of the
peak levels Of a few years ago. The
coke business, incidentally, is an i'm
portant part of the revenues OF the
Citizens Gas Co.
According to Mr.. Eaton, who is Ia
miliar with the facilities OF the local
gas company, the coke plant is a
very valuable one. Furthermore, he
is of the opinion that it will be pos
sible. in the event of natural gas
being used here. to start coke opera
lions simply for the purpose OF
benehting from the higher prices
which he sees impending for that
commodity.

The baseball squad is fast round

least two games with outside
teams this week.

team, Touchet, Prosser and Finley

in these games, it will feel that the
season is a success, since it is Sc

WHITE FOE

HONOLULU. T. H., May II
UN.SO.-Wartime. secrecy, radio
silence and the isolation of the
mid.Pacific today hid the move
ments Of the attacking force" Of
naval craft that swept out Of
Pearl Harbor Wednesday to en-.
gage in mock warfare west OF
here, in the most critical phase
of the United States Nays vast
war games.
The white" force, commanded
by Admiral Harris Lanning, num-
bering 10 battleships, three heav.
ily-laden airplane carriers, and
dozens of cruisers. submarines
and destroyers, was believed to be
steaming westward. with decks
cleared for action, in an attempt
to break the widespread line Of
Vice Admiral Arthur J. Hepburn's
''black" fleet, the major forces OF
which were understood to be
maSsed near Midway Island.
Near Samoa
The line of "black" fleet was
believed to extend across the
Pacific from the Aleutian Islands
almost to Samoa.
With rigid official silence pre-
vailing, it was unknown at what
point the white" force would at
tack the defending fleet, but it
was learned unofficially that the
objective Of the westward move
ment was ultimately to land an
expeditionary force Of Marines to
hold Midway Island.
The small island, 1880 miles
northwest of here, with its air
plane landing facilities and cable
station, constitutes an important
strategic point in the defense line,
and capture" of it by the white"
force would drive a Spearhead into
Vice Admiral Hepburn'S forces.
Scouts in Air
The "black" force was sending
scouting contingents of airplanes
and submarines between here and
Midway, in an effort to detect the
coming of the attacking force.
Meanwhile, tense activity at
Pearl Harbor and the military
bases of Oahu Island presaged the
expected sudden return here next
week of the white" force to bonn
bard the island defenses from air
planes and ships.
It was learned unofficially that
If the white" force is successful
in capturing Midway Island, it
will steam Immediately back here,
to attempt a theoretical destruc-
ton Of the island bases.
