Resolved, That the Minister of
the Interior he requested to inquire
of the President of the Board of
Health what are the reasons why
DR.. Lutz has resigned, and whom
do the Board of Health propose to
rut in his place.
The mover said that DR.. Lutz had
informed him an hour or two
ago that he had resigned his posi-
ton at Kalhi Receiving Hospital,
on account of the treatment he had
received from the Board of Health
within the past few days. The Sc
lect committee had made certain
recommendation on the difficulty
at the hospital, which were referred
to the Board of Health, probably
only to be pigeon-holed. DR.. Lut2
had been brought to this country al
great expense to treat the lepers,
and he wanted to know whether the
House consented to the Boards con-
duct in forcing HIM to resign.
Rep. Bush was glad in one sense
that Dr.. Lutz was compelled to re,
sign, because it brought prominently
to view the treatment that had beer
accorded to native Hawaiians the
past ten or fifteen years. 1t was
nothing but professional jealousy or
the part of the other doctors which
had brought about this state of af
: fairs. DIR. Lut2 was the first ply
sician who could show improvement
in his patients on account OF hi;
treatment, for what was supposed to
be leprosy but a matter of doub

his treatment had been so success
: full he was an eyesOrc to the Other
physicians. Whom did DR.. Kim

disease? The speaker would scarcely
