the purpose OF making the selection.
Lr. Dickenson spent yesterday in the
region of Diamond Head. Investigating
the currents and examining the char

pose OF securing data which will be OF
use TO him in making the final selection
for the shore end location OF the line.
Afr. Dickinson was under the cice-
TOnage OF Surveyor General Wall all
day yesterday. and he secured much
information concerning the character
OF the shore line and the bottom close
in to IL. There were two principal
sites viewed. one on the far side OF
Diamond Head and the other along the
front OF the beach. close to Sans Souci.
While. OF course. no selection viii be
made by Mr.. Dickinson until he has
made a thorough survey OF the sur
roundings OF the city. he discovered
that there are difficulties I'm the way OF

meeting, he gave n resume OF the work
which is being done by States and Ter
ritories of the mainland. In some OF
these there is n condition such as OBJ
t1..s here. and 1t was related that in
such circumstances there have been
formed Worlds Fair promotion soc!e-
ties. some OF them being in the form
OF n commission appointed by the
Governor but honorary IN it's character.

the exhibits which may be made IN

that IL will be necessary to choose some
point where there Is a channel through
the coral Mr.. Dickinson was given an
opportunity TO investigate just what
Is the character OF the reefs yesterday.
by seeing some OF the coral found on
the bottom and his conclusions were
that there would be great difficulty for
4 cable which would be laid across one
OF the sharp defenses of the islands.
The trips which are to be made by
Mr.. Dickinson and Mr.. Wall today
will lead 10 the further sites discussed
There was not any attempt made to go
down to the waterfront at Waialae
bay yesterday. but the trip there is to
be carried through today. There is
one recommendation for that site
which might outweigh the objections.
in that the approach to the city from
Il is by an easy grade. The trip will
not close with Waialae. but viii be
continued on To the shore beyond Koko
Head Mr.. Dickinson has looked into
the several other small bays which lie
I'm that direction upon the map, among
them Hanauma bay. which has been
suggested. but the objection IS thought
TO hold as against them that the hills
behind rise too precipitously from the
sea
After investigating the eastern shores
the survey will be continued 10 the
west. and no definite selection will be
made until this has been completed.

The provision for the executive COM
mittcc OF the Territorial committee was
left as broad as possible. the officers
OF the committee other than the chair
man. secretary and treasurer. being
barred from the meetings and three
members being necessary To- demand n
called meeting. The matter OF the de-
ciarinE vacant OF the seat OF n mem
ber was cut down until there can be
no change In the membership unless n
member shall leave the Territory with
out having given n proxy 20 a fellow
member OF the Territorial committee.
The section providing for sub-comnit-
tees OF S%e Territorial committee TO
work In their districts was cut out al
together.
Representation In the Territorial con-
ventions was the subject OF some talk.
there being n division OF opinion as -
the number Of votes which shall form
the unit II was decided finally that
there should be- one delegate for each
fifty votes cast In the precinct for the
Delegate TO Congress at the last eiec-
tion. with further provisions that th.
major fraction shall govern the od1
members. and that no precinct shall BE-
unreprcsented. no matter how small
the vote.
After the conclusion Of the cOnRidera-
ton OF these articles. which completed
the regular rules. the general pro-
visions were taken up. The first thing
done vas the substitution of a new
section for the one which provided for
nm advisory committee. This section
makes II impossible for any person 20
be member % both a district and the
Territorial committee At the same time.
The remainder OF the general prOvIs-
Ions were principally rules Of order. |
and these were stricken out. there be- I
ing n general provision that Cushing /,
should govern The iast section was
that which governs amendments. and .
this was SO changed that n two-thIris /
vote shah be needed 10 make any al
tcrations.
After the conclusion of the work of
the committee on the rules u was pro-
sidcd that committee consisting OF
Chairman Kennedy. J. W. Jones and \.
2. NJ. Robertson should have charge
~ the revision of the rules and their
preparation for final consideration.
When the rules come up again before

| the better locations could be had for
any display. and further. that there
! are already applications for space
which viii make il necessary for the
serving OF those who come first before
the late comers receive any considera-
| tion. He said also that the fair man
asement would recognize any organiza-
tion which was representative and thus
secure a virtual option upon the site
or the space which ii might be de-
the resources OF the Territory.
There was some further talk over
the special features which are to gov
srn the work, though it was not de-
sired TO go into it deeply as yet.
