The House, in his view. had no right
to send committee with physicians to
the kalihi station to make examina-
tions without permission of the Board
of Health. He based this on the Re

Board of Health.
He was asked to turn up the section
in the Revised Laws on which he based
this claim and he quoted Section 1131
He claimed the right under this to keep
DR.. Rice and DR. Augur from visiting

formations of lepers.
He had given his reasons for the re-
fusal in a communication to the House
which had been returned. he now
awaited further instructions from the
Board.
AS to the correspondence asked for
by Chairman Holstein of the Leprosy
Committee, Pinkham said that copies
of all reports regarding the four Iep-
rous persons at Hilo and of communi-
cations with DR.. Rice were being made
for the committee.
The House adjourned at five o'clock,
after Smith had formally thanked the
Board of Health for attending.

WHO OWNED THE COPS?

Respecting the policemen, he an
swered Andrade. he had asked for six
and the House had asked for six. Six
policemen went along but Pinkham did
not know who had got them. Two po-
licemen came ashore. he did not know
on which boat. He had told them after
consultation with McVeigh that Nc
Weighs people could handle the visitors
and the patients would feel sensitive at
the interference of outsiders. When he
returned to the landing he found the
conditions different from what he ex-
pected. He had not expected to see
any inside the line at the warehouses,
but there was a crowd of them at the
landing place and on the breakwater.

HE TOOK THE POLICE.

He was asked why he had taken the
six policemen to the Settlement and an
swered that he did so with a view to
assisting Superintendent McVeigh. He
had no conversation with any leper re-
garding the landing of people from the
Kinau, nor had he told any one there
that the Health Committee had taken
charge of that matter
He did not know that % permits had
been issued from his office The per-
mits when taken up are preserved at
the Settlement. He did not know what
had become of the parties who were
not landed. 1t was the duty of the Off
GERS at the Settlement TO wise the
passes as the different passengers
landed, the superintendent, he sup
posed, or his deputies. AS to the I'M
used permits they could not be used as
they are marked Legislature on the
face and would not be accepted.

BLAMES McVEIGH.

He asked McVeigh if his people could
get the lepers back and McVeigh SAID
he thought they could.
But that was a failure?" asked
Smith.
Lots of things are failures on
junket," answered Pinkham.
ITO what or whom do you ascribe the
failure?" asked Andrade.
ITO a general condition of circum-
stances over which nobody had con-

PINKHAM DIDN'T THINK.


Here Fernandez broke in. asking IL
Pinkham had consulted with the Health
Committee before Offering Meyer a pas
sage.
81 did not" he answered.
Then you forgot that there were
people aboard who had a prior right to
go ashore"
II did not give the matter a thought -
was the answer.
Smith continued the questioning
Pinkham said that his landing was
made with difficulty and after landing
he consulted with Supt. McVeigh re-
garding the landings and handling the
visitors.
He considered that Supt. McVeigh
was in charge of the Settlement and of
all the people there. though McVeigh
was his own subordinate. About u or
Is boat loads in all landed as far as he
could estimate it. McVeigh stated to
Pinl<ham that he had a sufficient num-
Der of officers to handle the people who
might come ashore. These We're officers
appointed by McVeigh. but Pinkham
did not know whether they We're sworn
/ in.
Again Fernandez broke in. He asked
| had any permit or authority to land at
the Settlement. He knew of no author
ity or permit issued by the Board OF
/ Health to Meyer. but he said the Pres
ident of the Board of Health had
right to take him into the Settlement
| If he wished TO do so
WHY HE TOOK MEYER.
Continuing he said that he had asked
! Meyer to come up to breakfast He
had taken Meyer in simply as a cour-
| tesy. He had a right 10 do so as Presi-
| dent of the Board OF Health. Meyer
had driven Pinkham over to Kalawao
and back while there, he watched the
kinau trying to make its landing on
| the other side
| Smith put the straight question: Had
not Meyer been permitted to break the
| law by violating the Segregation Act d?
| Il do not think So replied Pinkharn.
| He had the permission of the Presi-
dent of the Board of Health to be pres,

He did not think that he had ever

WANTS MORE MONEY.

IF the Legislature would give a lit
tie more money to fix up the place it
would be possible to prevent the law
being violated even under conditions
such as those of last Sunday. The
crowd that went along was too large
for existing conditions
Asked as to what he could suggest
to improve the enforcement of the seq
regation law, Pinkham replied that ne
had been given to understand that be-
fore the elections the people had been
told that their friends would be al
lowed to go and see them and that
many thought the trip last Sunday was
a fulfillment of this promise. He also
thought that the corral should be i'm
proved and made more attractive with
glass or wire instead of being built like
a prison.

any member of the press to the effect
that the Health Committee of the
House had overridden him. He did not
remember making any such statement

THE KALIHI MATTER.

AS to the Kalihi receiving station,
Pinkham was asked if it were correct
that the House committee had been re-
fused permission by the Board of
Health to visit the station and have
the lepers examined by three physi-
clans. He answered that the commit
tee had not been refused but the ex-
animation by physicians had been de
MED By the law he had to refuse. He
had not stated to Chairman Fernandez
that he had refused permission for the
inspection because the Health Commit
tee had failed to keep its promises on
the Molokai trip.

long can we live without breathing?
Twenty ounces OF food and few
plnts of water will supply the body
one day; but, upon a low estimate It
requires thirty thousand plnts OF air
in the same length Of time.
The delicate machine which this
volume of air enters is said to contain

Banks as Public Benefits.

Many people who deal with banks
every day do not really understand
the proper object and purpose Of bank
ing Banks can not create money.
but they can gather small sums
which are distributed among the peo-
pie and thus create an aggregate
which can be made available for i'm.
portant business operations that pre-
v!ousy would have been impossible.
Individuals, each possessing few
hundreds or n few thousands, invest
II in stock in bank. and thus n fund
OF $4,000 or 100000 is established
in town or community as great
aid to the business activity and pros.

THE WRONG WAY TO WALK

Frequently.

cally uncu!tivated people. let their
heads lead; the head is further ad

centered on their stomachs. often I'M
consciously lead with the waist line
Just over the offending organ. Oc-
casionally weak-willed person per-
mits the knees to lead. When n thin,
bad walker moves rapidly. there often
seems to be a race between nose and
knees, and You watch to see which
will arrive at the goal first.
When a young woman's skirt and a
young mans trousers show a bullying
shape over the knees, their owners
are leading sedentary lives or have
never learned to walk correctly. This
part OF the lower limbs should be kept
straight. and the ball OF the foot, not
the heel, should touch the ground
first. When the head is bert for long
hours over sewing machine or ledger
or onion bed, II is not an easy matter
TO pull 1t back to its proper position
and make 1t stay there. and it seems
so much. more easy end comfortable
TO let the chest sink than TO hold it
up to its right place: but the demands
OF health and beauty are identical in
the matter Of head held easily. not

In the highest and most advanced
position.
II is striking TACT that this attl-
tude OF head and cnest is expressive.
not only of health and grace. but OF
the finer mental qualities. The EN-.

string Is attached to the upper part
OF his chest and held by an Invisible

to let his body depend from that
