Hawaii's Police Comprised Of Many
Nationalities, Including Irishmen;
Chief Is Chinese, With U.S. Spouse

NEW YORK (" Men of Mercy nations comprise th police

And that doesn't aeem at all unuiual to the top cop of Honolulu

"We have at leaat a dozen nationalists on our police force," ha
laughed. "And don't think we're without Irish cops.
Liu is proud of the fact he him'
self worked up through every
rank to become the first Chinese
Chief of Police of an American
city. His force reflects the poly

"One-third are Hawallans they
really love to be policemen," said
Dan.
The other two-thirds are Cau
casians, Japanese, Chinese, Sa
moans and Filipinos.
Liu came to the mainland to
attend an International cop cau
cus, at which he reported on Hon
olulu's measures to avoid "an
other Pearl Harbor."
"We were the first police force
to organize for atomic defense,"
he said. "If an atom bomb falls
on our city we'll be ready to dis
charge our responsibllty to he

Then he smiled as he adder!:
"Of course if our police are
within a two-mile range of the

Limit On Income
Taxes Asked By
Mining Congress
SPOKANE, Sept 28.
The American Mining Congresa
Tuesday called for a 50 per cent
limit on individual Income taxes.
A statement of policy released
at the group's western division
convention here also asked the
government:
To curb "excessive welfare ac
tivities." To change the system of stock
piling strategic minerals for pos
sible wartime use.
To maintain protective tariffs
for the mining industry.
To provide incentive payments
"to encourage prospecting, ex
ploration and development of
mines producing essential
minerals."
The group's statement on taxes
said that present federal taxes
"remove practically all Incentive
for effort and Investment In risk
enterprises."
"Corporate and Individual taxes,
and their combined effect, should
not be such as to leave inade
quate incentive for incurring risk
and producing income.
'The maximum tax on Individ
ual Income should in no event ex
ceed 50 per cent.
The statement said the mine
operators "are deeply concerned
about legislative proposals for an
expanded 'social security' pro
gram. And that the strongest
emphasis should be placed on self
help and ambition to produce.
preventing crime Is as Important
as catching criminals.
His force has a full program of
sports, hobby training and recre
ational activities for Honolulu
youngsters, and It mixes the kids
of all races together at an early
age.
"Youth holds the key to our
future democracy," said Dan. "It
is for that reason we try to work
among the young so much to
teach them the American tradi
tion of good will and tolerance."
Liu sets his police officers a
good example by his own off-duty
civic work. He is a leader In the
local council of churches, the
YMCA and Boy Scout activities.
The racial harmony that pre
vails In the Hawaiian isles is the
envy of other areas where differ
ences in color, politics or reli
gion cause violence.
"Our crime rale is lower than
many olher cities of the aame
population group," said Dan, who
believes this is true largely be
cause of the islands' no-dlscrim-lnation
policy. He Is married to
girl from Mississippi.

Bumpus Covt Scores Victory Over Federal Agency
WASHINGTON, Sept 28 .P
Bumpus Cove rang up a victory
today over a U. S. Government
agency that has been calling it
Bumpass Cove.
Bumpus Cove is a little Commu
nity in East Tennessee, in the Che
rokee national foiest. Since 1S96
it has been carried on govern
ment maps as Bumpass.
Lately, the U. S. Board of Geo
graphic names sent out a rou
tine proposal that the valley In
which the settlement lies be of
ficially lisled as Bumpass Cove,
too. and the stream on which
it lies be called Bumpass Cove
Creek.
To the surprise of the place
namers. the local residents raid
ed a clamor heard all the way
to Washington. Rep. Phillips R
Tenn) went to Tennessee and
held a community election on
the Issue. Everv vote was for
Bumpus.
Now the U. S. board has not
only reversed itself on the pro
posed names for the valley and
creek, but also repealed the ixn
decision and relisted the village
as Bumpus Cove, Tenn.
If your eyeglasses have heavy
frames, do not wear a hat loaded
with flowers, feathers and yards
of veiling swathed around your
face.
