soning OF the Governor.
Senator Achi talked Hawaiian and
Senator Baldwin said that the reason
ing of the Governor was sound and
correct and 'if we. want statehood we
win get it a good deal sooner If we use
only one language He felt however
that he was bound by the Republican
platform, though the Governors veto
had put the matter in a different light
and anyone not bound by the platform
ought to vote to sustain the veto.
Senator Dickey said the Organic Act
was ambiguous as to the use of En-
glish by the legislature. and that Ha-
waiian could be elected even IL he did
mt know word of English.

The Governors veto OF the beer biii
was also not sustained, though it had

bill passed in a questionable manner
by a vote of IL to g.
Senator c. Brown said the objections
of the Governor to the bill were wand
but they could be cured by amend
ments. and he favored the passage of
the bill over the veto. He said If anoth-
er bill was adopted the Governor would
probably veto it as he was more Of
prohibitionist than license man.
Senator Baldwin replied that he did
MT believe in passing the bill, as the
objections to it were valid. The Gov
ernor wasn't a prohibitionist and would
not veto proper bill The objection
to women was very strong, and while
white women might not frequent sa-
looms, yet there would be Asiatic
hrotheIs. Under a proper law licenses
would be issued much more freely. The
legislature had plenty of time to do it,
and the veto should be sustained.

ONE AGAINST MANY,

'I1ave you changed your mind since
the adoption of the resolution" asked
the Speaker.
Yes said Keliinoi. Il think I have.
The truth is that we were not given
time for consideration when this res
olution was put through the House.
This is grave matter. 1t concerns
our aspirations for statehood. I know
that am bound by my platform to
support this resolution. but it seems to
me that there are times when platform
pledges should be broken in the interest
of our country. feel that We will
injure our struggle for statehood irrep-
arably if this resolution is adopted"
Knudsen wanted to know if a resolu-
ton asking for statehood had passed
the House. and was told that it had.
Then Keliinoi renewed his request for
delay. II think the veto will be over
ridden he said. but I want to fight
for it,"

Senator Baldwin for the Ways and
Means Committee reported favorably
the House hackmen's license bill with
an amendment providing that the sec
ton requiring knowledge of English or
Hawaiian shall not apply to persons
holding a license at present. The COM

OVERRIDE LANGUAGE VETO.
The Governors veto on the two Ian

admitted the truth and force of the

Senator c. Brown said all must rec

guage by Arizona and New Mexico and |
how it had delayed their admission to
statehood. He said If it wasn't for the

said. There had already been an ap-

enormous appropriation asked for to
buy a water system. The talk about

these purchases would be mixed water,
