The legislative extra session is drawing
to a close now. as the time limit has nearly
expired. The lawmakers have been in ses-
sion nearly 10 days. but they have not
completed their work 1t appears as
though, IL the law had not placed limits on
the duration OF the sessions, Hawai-! would
have an all-year Legislative performance.
The closing days have been marked by

house Representative NJ X. Kealawaa. a
native member, introduced a set of resolu-
lions against Secretary George r. Carter
but they were defeated by a heavy major
ity. The resolutions have been knocking
about in home rule hands for some time.

ported that President Roosevelt intends to
appoint Carter as successor to Governor
Dole, and protest against such an appoint
ment. Only four votes in favor of the reso-
lutions were cast
Carter May Be Next Governor.

also sent for and talked with Carter. the
removal of Dole was one of the favorite
themes of the anti-missionary politicians.

These complimentary references to both
Carter and Dole are taken as indications
that the Presidents convictions remain the
same regarding the situation in Hawaii.
