Mr.. Vida said to him to go ahead and
make up the report and put 1t in.
you are not telling the truth when
you say that" answered Mr.. Vida.
Right standing where you are, did
you not tell me that!" asked Mr.. Har-
ris.
No did not" answered Mr. Vida.
Chair Makes Ruling.
The Chair ruled that the resolution
referring the pro ratas to the various
delegations was in the nature of a con-
tract. II 1t was binding upon one, II
was binding upon all; therefore a re-
port under such resolution was binding
and the motion to reconsider would be
ruled out Of order.
Appeal From Ruling.
Mr. Aylett appealed from the ruling
Of the Chair and was supported by Mr..
Kumalae. Mr.. Vida said he agreed
with the Chair that the resolution was
binding but that did not present the re-
consideration of a report or an item.
All he wanted to know what by what
right any one or two members had to
insert items In the bill when all the
remainder of the members were against
1t. He had no personal axe to grind
or any property in Manoa but he GER
tainly objected to the insertion Of
items for the personal benefit of others.
He was chairman Of the oahu delega-
ton and he had heard absolutely moth
ing about the item of $4,000 for Ma
noa. He would have been perfectly
willing to allow the item IL the MEM
bers wanting It had gone about the
matter in the right way.
Chairman Andrade said the remarks
of the member seemed to be against
him particularly. He would state that
he had asked for the item and so had
Mr.. Long
Mr. Vida answered that II was not
allowed and Mr.. Andrade answered
that he was not so sure about that.
A $4,000 Item Left Out.
Mr. Kumalae said that he had a dis
tinCt recollection Of having passed $751;
900 for the streets in the Kewalo dis
trict. He did not see this In the re-
port as handed in by Mr.. Harris. In
stead Of that, other items had been in
serted
Mr.. Aylett supported the motion Of
Mr.. Vida to reconsider saying that he
objected to any secret business in the
matter OF inserting items. He had
been present at all the sessions of the
Oahu delegation and had never heard
Of $4,000 item for Manoa being in
serted.
Mr.. Fernandez said he was very much
afraid that II the Oahu items we're re-
considered, such action would open the
way for the reconsideration Of the
items of all the different islands When
the report of the Oahu delegation was
presented yesterday, there was not a
hand raised against the adoption Of
the Oahu report. Why did the men,
hers not pick out the flaws then? They
had every opportunity.
chillingworth's Stand.
Mr.. Chillingworth supported the
stand of Mr.. Fernandez. saying that
there was a grave danger staring the
members in the face. When he had
heard the Maui items read, he felt
doubt as to some Of them. Under other
circumstances he would have had
something to say but bound by the
pledge placed upon the members by
