Roosevelt for a tax on beer can be carried out without nullification of the constitution of the United States. Governor Roosevelt suggests a tax on beer as a means for raising several hundred millions of dollars to balance the federal government. But before beer can be taxed it must be legalized. For that purpose Governor Roosevelt would modify the Volstead Act. If the Volstead Act is modified to legalize the manufacture and sale of real beer, the very purpose for which it was enacted will have been defeated.

The Volstead Act was passed to carry out the purpose of the 18th amendment which prohibited the sale and manufacture of intoxicating liquor. To modify the Volstead Act to permit the sale and manu-racture of intoxicating liquor would be a plain violation of the purposes of the constitution. 1 The claim is made that the beer whose sale and manufacture it is proposed to permit does not come within the definition of "intoxicating liquors." But if it doesn't, how can the advocates of this new source of revenue hope for the heavy increase in consumption of this beverage to make it profitable to the federal government? Obviously, the purpose of the constitution must be defeated to accomplish this purpose. And to do this it is proposed to proceed immediately to modify the Volstead Act, every feature of which has been upheld time and time again by court decisions, then consider repeal of the constitutional amendment afterwards. That is nullification.

It enacted legislation to put it into effect. That is shown by the record of congress during the Wilson administration. Only the emergency created by the war prevented the full realization of the Democratic plan to put sugar on the free list. The subject of the Democratic attitude toward the sugar tariff has been discussed by members of both local political parties recently.

In order to clarify the discussion it is well to have the record in mind. The Underwood tariff bill, introduced in a Democratic congress during a Democratic national administration, was approved October 3, 1913. It reduced the existing duty on raw sugar from .95 cent to .71 cent a pound, and provided that from and after May 1, 1916, sugar should enter the United States free. The plan was to reduce the tariff on sugar gradually until it had been eliminated entirely. On February 14, 1916, Rep.

Kitchen introduced a measure to repeal that portion of the Underwood act providing for the free admission of sugar. The measure was known as the "emergency act," and was approved April 27, 1916, becoming Public Law 61. That is the record and it speaks for itself. Jl'DGE ROBERTSON' REPLIES TO LOUIS CAIN The Star-Bulletin. Sir: Mr.

Louis Cain's attempted reply to my address over the radio is more conspicuous tn what he did not say than in what he did say. This, no doubt, results from the. to him. disagreeable fact that Mr. McCandless.

as candidate for delegate to congress. Is now on the defensive. Mr. Cain denies that hat is food for business is good for the country as a whole. By implication he denses that whatever is good for Hi aiian industries Is good for the people of this territory.

I that pleasing to those taxpayers who voted for Mr. Cain at the primary election? By implication he admits that a vote for McCandless is a vote for a lower tarilf on sugar. Mr. Cain is reported to have told the Ad club that a Democratic delegate in congress would -oppose any plan to reduce the sugar tariff." True, be might oppose it. but what good would that do us? Mr.

McCandless at Washington would have about as much influence to change the Democratic policy with reference to sugar, which is dictated by capitalists whose money is invested in Cuba, as he would have to change the color of the moon. The sugar industry of this territory can rely only on the protective policy of the Republican party to save it from disaster. In his letter to The Star-Bulletin, however. Mr. Cain advocated the removal of the tariff on pineapples, and said if that should be done the pineapple Industry would "replace and surpass the sugar industry.

His logic evidently is that the reduction or removal of the tariff on sugar would be a good thing for Hawaii, and he seems to contemplate with satisfaction that a Democratic tariff for revenue only would put our sugar industry out cf business so that wc would produce only pineapples. Apparently he is glad that a vote for Roosevelt is a vote for cheap Cuban sugar. Wall Street money in Cuba is of more concern to Roosevelt than the capital invested in the beet and cane suear industries of the United States. My guess is that after a spell of the sort of tariff that brother Cain favors he would fold his tent and return to whence he came in search of employment. Mr.

Cain goes back into ancient history long before many of the present-day voters were born to discover that the Republican party then favored free sugar. What is more important is the fact that during the Wilson Democratic administration sugar was put on the free list and only war saved Hawaii from the effects of it. Mr. Cain says that the Republican party Is not the party of home rule, but he does not and cannot deny that all the rights of self-government which the people of Hawaii are enjoving today were given to them by a Republican administration. He repeats the threadbare assertion that Senator Eingham "has many bills taking sundry rights of local self-government away," but he does not and cannot deny that those are not Senator Bingham's bills.

Neither can he deny that Senator Bingham's views are represented by the home rule for Hawaii plank in the Republican national platform. Mr. Cain tries, as other Democratic politicians, have tried, to brush aside the abject failure of the Hawaii delegation to the Democratic convention to obtain the home rule plank which they had previously boasted that they would get. The voters of this territory are far too sensitive on the vital issue of home rule to permit the Democrats to belittle the importance of the fact that the Democratic party in convention assembled absolutely refused to recognize that the people of Hawaii have the ability and the right to manage their own affairs. He does not and cannot deny that a vote for McCandless, who as a candidate for a federal office, is necessarily standing on the Democratic national platform, is a vote against home rule for Hawaii.

The voters of this territory will not overlook the fact that the cablegram demanding the immediate pardon of Lt. Massie and his associates which was signed by 71 Democratic members of congress contained the veiled threat that unless the pardon be granted it would not be well for Hawaii. Mr. Cain says that, as to Mr. Hearst, "we do not claim him," but he does not explain who he means by "we." Democratic candidates for election in Hawaii probably wish that Mr.

Hearst was non-existent, but that does not help them. He says that Mr. Hearst has often been repudiated, but he falls to point out wherein Hearst was repudiated by the Democratic convention last July. Who arranged the national ticket Roosevelt and Garner but Hearst and his friend McAdoo? Who Is now dictating the Democratic policy towards Hawaii but W. R.

Hearst, the vicious foe of home rule? Mr. Cain, typically Democratic, departs from the truth when he says that Mr. Houston advocated lynch law. He does not and cannot deny that the bitter campaign which the Democrats are making against Mr. Houston is based on misrepresentation and hyprocracy.

Speaking of the capability of executives, the history of the Republican party from Lincoln to Hoover speaks for itself and fully deserves the encomium of Calvin Coolidge which was quoted in my address. If it were not for the efforts of President Hoover this country would now be realizing what a great depression really is. It is, of course, not to be expected that Mr. Cain, being a candidate on the Democratic ticket, can do other than mouth the stereotyped Democratic sentiments. Otherwise he would lose the support of the Democratic machine.

Standing as he does in bold opposition to the welfare of Hawaii and Hawaiian industry he does not deserve and ought not to receive the support of any intelligent voter. Mr. Cain says that I have forgotten that "the local Republican party proposed that the people couldn't vote unless they owned $3,000 worth of property." I confess I do not remember that, and would like to be Informed how, when and where that wa3 done. Incidents Uy. it would be interesting to know how many colored voters are permitted to reach the polls in the nullification states of the south.

The program was opened by IQ numbers by Miss Martha Cannon, accomplished violinist, accompanied by Mrs. Florence Bocco Jolinson. The rest of the program was given over to dance performances by student of Mrs. Franceses Luiz, who conducts a dancing studio in the city.

Among the dancers was Loretta Luiz. Mrs. Luiz's four year old daughter, who with two other very young dancers performed acrobatic, butterfly and toe dances. Other students exhibited various dances. Alexander Castro, who had charge of the dance program, did tap dancing.

The next musical half-hour is scheduled for November 2, at the lecture hall from 12:45 to 1:15. A varied program is being worked out by Irene Leong, chairman of the musical half-hour committee and her assistants. The orchestra under the direction of Brother Francis Marx played a great part in the entertainment program. Words of welcome were extended to the parents by John Dolan.

For some 300 years the expansion of credit and currency kept decently abreast of the expansion of economic activity. The expansion of credit and currency during these three centuries was not due. however, so much to farsighted planning and invention on the part of financiers and statesmen as to the periodic, if not persistent, discovery of new supplies of such sustaining metals as silver and gold.

We are, perhaps, well toward the end of that rope. In the future if the new needs of the new age of science and the machine demand an expansion of credit and currency, we must find that expansion In what we think and do about our credit and currency system. And we must not permit scared statesmen to scare us with the bogey of inflation. Because little planned and largely uncontrolled Inflation has here and there left nations with a sick headache is no reason why modern mankind cannot through sound planning and strong control make a credit and currency system the servant of the economic order Instead of permitting the economic order to be a victim of a credit and currency system that no longer answers the needs of the age. e.

McClure Newspaper Syndicate) It would not be necessary even to eliminate the tariff on sugar to bring ruin to the Hawaiian sugar industry. Such is the situation in the islands in respect to costs and expenses that even a reduction of the import tax would carry with it immediate disaster. American methods of production have borne with them the inculcation of American standards of living In the field workers, even if in modified form, and Hawaii, unprotected by the tariff wall, conld not meet the Cuban competition in sugar production with labor conditions maintained as they are. Thus is the importance of the Republican protective tariff to Hawaii's prosperity presented by Donaldson B. Thor-burn in his final article on these islands for the Wall St.

Journal. Mr. Thorburn came to Hawaii to study the industrial and financial structure of the territory. His investigation was without the suggestion of political purpose. It was nonpartisan and thorough.

His conclusions were based on facts. There are no two ways about it. The whole economic structure of Hawaii is based on a continuation of the Republican protective tariff. To support the election of a Democratic delegate to congress is to support a party whose avowed purpose is to substitute a "competitive tariff" for a protective tariff. It is a move to destroy the very foundations upon which the prosperity and happiness of these islands depends.

Once more an effort to get a joint convention of the Union and Confederate army veterans in the Civil wanhas failed. The time grows short, now, and it looks as if the two groups never will meet. Within a few years none of them will be left. This plan for a joint convention, a grand get-together at which blue and gray would mingle in one parade and one great love-feast, has been a favorite plan with sentimentalists for years. On the surface, it looks very attractive.

The. war is over and its passions are dead why shouldn't the one-time enemies meet around the same camp fire and give a final, moving demonstration of the way in which the Old enmities have healed? Well, for one thing soldiers are far less sentimental about war than the stay-at-homes usually are and this desire for a meeting blue and gray seems to be a part of that process of sentimentalizing the Civil war of which we have had so much lately. We have turned that war into an affair of moonlight and romance we have spun queer, misty haloes for the heads of those who took part in it; we have had songs and poems and novels and books of unadulterated balderdash wherein the conflict appears as a sort of bloodless pageant, in which all concerned were very noble and very spotless and very romantic. We are at a safe distance from the war, now. We can do that.

We can forget that it was the most horrible thing that ever happened on our continent: that to the men who took part in it, it was no more "romantic" than the battle of Belleau Wood was to a sweating doughboy of the 2nd division. We don't have any living memories of its reality to carry around with us. The veterans have. So the veterans regularly vote down plans for the grand get-together. And perhaps they are wiser than we are.

The Civil war wasn't a knightly duel; it was a cruel, bloody and frightfully painful bit of hell on earth. The men who fought in it remember that fact. If we wish to sentimentalize it they won't help us.

If the word error were in the place of habits, would not the statement thus formed, applied to our English, oe also true? "If one reader presumes to correct an error made by another not for the purpose of exposing any one's deficiency in the knowledge of good English, nor for an egotistic and obnoxious exploitation of his own, but from a sincere and laudable desire to be helpful and does that modestly, and with perspicuity, should that not be accounted a commendable and worthy act?

It is the American farmer who eventually will bring about independence for the Philippines, according to Senator E. Borah of Idaho. In a speech at Idaho Falls Wednesday night, the senator said: "The American farmer really is the man who is carrying the Philippines.

The time will come when the United States' sugar industry, under the present regime, will be greatly affected, if not destroyed, by Philippine competition. am concerned more about the acreage they could plant than the limitations they promise to make. They could plant enough to destroy the United States sugar industry." The statement of Senator Borah is important as representing a point of view on Philippine independence that is steadily gaining ground. It is the competition of Philippine products rather than the more or less abstract desire of the Filipino people for the liberties of independent government that is influencing the American point of view. In the past the farmer of the midwest, to whom the Philippines is an extremely remote country, has naturally been sympathetic to.

the Filipino aspirations to independence. The advocates of Philippine independence have cleverly couched their campaign in terms of the American other aspirants to political office from both parties will speak. L. L. McCandless.
