Hilo's War By ALICE SARGENT The many statues of southern war heroes and the which dot Richmond, left their impression on a youth of the city who followed the art of sculpturing when he grew up. "They were inspiring," says Roy E. King, referring to the monumental 'art in his historic native city, The Honolulu sculptor designed and carved the war memorial which will be dedicated at 2 this afternoon at Kalakaua park arbor. The memorial, which the attist calls a "spiritual pays tribute to the 157 men from this island who died in World War I.

The design of the four ton marble monument, which overlooks the lily pond, is that of an unarmed fighting man, a composite of all combat forces. The wings above him symbolize the protector of NANKING, Oct. 30 (P)-Mukden collapsed into Chinese communist hands today in the most stunning government loss of the three-year civil war, reliable sources in this fearful capital reported tonight. Many high Chinese and foreign sources declared the civil war had been decided with the fall of the great Manchurian city. Quick retirement from the remaining small holdings in southernmost Manchuria was predicted.

Bitter fighting may continue in China-proper for months or even years, sources said, but Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek's effort to defeat the communists on a nationwide scale has died. The latest setback brought speculation on the possibility of replacing China's longtime leader. Some unofficial quarters said the communists completely occupied Mukden, swollen to nearly 2,000,000 population by refugees. Later and equally credible reports near midnight said the encircling communist armies had not yet taken full charge but the last government officials fled by car at 3 p.m., leaving the city in anarchic confusion. (The communists themselves broadcast that they had wiped out a government division immediately north of Mukden and that the city's fall was "imminent," but there reports did not cover Saturday.) Recent pro-government reports have indicated the bulk of Mukden's garrison already had left, attempting to fight its way southwest or to escape via the south Manchurian port of Yingkow, 115 miles from Mukden.

The government had no confirmation of communist claims to destruco of 12 divisions of this force two days ago, but the official denials sounded half-hearted.

Mr. de Silva said the negotiating teams of both parties will renew their attempts to reach a settlement of the wage-cut dispute, with the mediator attending to direct the course of the new sessions. The mediator explained that the negotiations will start "from scratch," indicating that the union will enter the discussions under its original proposal, a retention of the current minimum hourly wage of cents. A similar course would be adopted by the company, which began the original contract negotiations with a request for hourly wage cuts of 17.2 per cent, which in practice would have brought about reductions ranging from 13 to 25 cents an hour, according to company spokes- observed today through the major activities the girls Ethel Tomoguchi, leader, is Waiakeawaena school Kusano, left and Edna Kaneshiro.

On one side is chiseled, "That their spirit may guide us to an ever living peace among all mankind."

Williams proposed continuation of the company's operations at the same pay and general working conditions prevailing under the contract. He denied, however, a union request for a day-to-day extension of the contract until agreement could be reached. More than 1,400 employes subsequently refused to turn to their jobs October 11, the first full scale working day following the contract expiration. When the company's production machinery ground to a halt at midnight, October 9, the two parties were stalemated in negotiations, each refusing to accept the other's revised proposals. The union had yielded its original position with a proposal to accept a wage cut of five cents for all employes.

The company had reduced its original demand from 17.2 per cent to slightly less than 10 per cent, a proposal that would have resulted in reductions in hourly pay of from 5 to 14 cents an hour. Losses suffered by union employes during the 21-day period of idleness totaled approximately 600, based on the company's estimated $9,700 daily payroll for hourly employes. The figure excluded three Sundays, plantation operations are curtailed.
