moved to adopt the report Of the cou-
mittee. Makekau stated that he would
like to have the author OF the bill ex
plain some matters as he was desirous

one.
Kaniho again took the floor as au-
thor OF the bill and stated that In tha
past the Board OF Health could fine pa
rents five dollars for not having their
children vaccinated but under his bill
all this was done away with.
Mahoe, after listening to the dis
cussion. recommended that the bin
pass. Dickey wanted the members to
weigh the bill thoroughly before voting
on 1t. He moved to have 1t referred to
the Judiciary Committee to look up the
law more carefully.

ing plague times did no good and
